The Liberal Avenger: Where Are The Moderate Repubs?

A Massachusetts born and bred, Berkeley-educated, honorary Southeast Asian liberal coming to you from beautiful blue New England...

Best of LiberalAvenger.com:

The sordid tale of Michelle Malkin and her puppeteer husband Jesse - two voices, acting as one, wrapped up in a pretty package. Easy-to-digest racism for the masses.

"At times, conservatives have even trod into arguing in favor of a war ethos (see, for instance the popular bumper sticker: "War Has Never Solved Anything, Except for Ending Slavery, Fascism, Nazism and Communism"); at other times -- as in all the talk about "shock and awe" in the Iraq invasion -- they have even suggested there is a kind of beauty to violence, especially in the service of the imposition of American will.

"Look, can we all at least agree on one thing -- if the 'I didn't do it' administration is re-coronated, that come November 3, EVERYTHING IS THEIR FUCKING FAULT."

"Arbolist... Look up the word. I don't now, maybe I made it up. Anyway, it's an arbo-tree-ist, somebody who knows about trees."

"Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry, but by demonstrating that all peoples cry, laugh, eat, worry, and die, it can introduce the idea that if we try to understand each other, we may even become friends."

"To those who consider the war a mistake but still fear the consequences of military withdrawal, we ask these questions: when will enough be enough? If not now, when?"

"How much productivity has been wasted, not reducing our dependence on oil, but to entice us to buy more that is made with, and which consumes for its continuance - oil. It would be as if a man who had been poisoned, rather than reaching for the emetic, reaches for another dose of the poison."

Where Are The Moderate Repubs?

The moderate republicans in the house, getting ready for campaign 2006 are very quiet on most of the scandal swirling and the polls quickly dropping around 1600 Penns. Avenue. Not one of the hard to find moderates are going up against the administration. A large mistake in my opinion. All of the moderates and centrist voters would jump on the candidate's bandwagon and would march them back or into office.

Of course it's reverse propaganda in the casa blanca spin (or non-spin). At least some of the press corp are reporting on the shear bizarreness of the whole thing. K-K-Karl is now a "hero" and "whistle blower" in the wall street jrknl and he "should be given a medal" for his unethical and evil behavior. Perfect reversal terms and constant slamming of the three word phrase. It won't work this time, will it? Along with the majority of our population against the war in Iraq (Support The Troops by the way) there is now a groundswell of Americans with serious doubts about the way business is done and decisions are made by top cabinet members in the highest offices in the world. The moderates in both parties need to grasp this and squeeze every freaking drop of reality out of it and present it to the nation. But those moderate republican out there considering running for the house or those seeking another term should bring truth in a big way to us. Victory assured.
