Proud Member of the 'Angry Left'
But, I'll be damned if Bush should get away with tagging his Democratic opposition with the same label he used to describe John McCain's Vietnamese torturers.


from tonight's RNC: http://thinkprogress.org/2008/09/02/bush-angry-left/

Invoking McCain’s time as a POW in a North Vietnamese prison, Bush compared these torturers to members of the “angry Left”:

"If the Hanoi Hilton could not break John McCain’s resolve to do what is best for his country, you can be sure the angry Left never will."


WTF?!!

6. Angry, Happy Leftists
from Pacifica Blog: http://election411.org/blog/id/3602182/angry-happy-leftists


"Bush's slur seems to be at odds with Rep. Michele Bachmann's speech earlier tonight, when she said, "I do admit we have a lot of liberals here in Minnesota. But they are nice, happy liberals."

Usually the Republicans are so strong when it comes to message control... but tonight they seem split on whether progressives are angry or nice and happy.

We wily leftists - we lure them in with our niceness and happiness, then hit 'em with our anger!"

2. Fucking sick--a President proclaiming that a large segment of the country
Edited on Wed Sep-03-08 01:41 AM by wienerdoggie
that HE fucked up is no better than torturers and traitors--and HE TORTURES!! It boggles my mind. He is basically declaring anyone who disagrees with the GOP agenda of the last 8 years to be enemies of the state.

4. They've been calling us enemies of the state for years...
same old song. And it seems there are plenty of Neanderthals out there who are still not tired of hearing it. Anything else would require rational thought.

3. Fuck his resolve. The man has flip-flopped on more issues than anyone
that I can remember ever running for the presidency, all just to get himself into the White House. He doesn't know what an issue is. He stands for nothing more than his own ego. He can have his fucking "resolve." It's the American people will keep him out of the White House.

Cheers...

is best for his country, you can be sure the angry Left never will."
