What? Didn't you know that anyone that fights against America and/or Israel is a "freedom fighter" in the lefty's mind? Just ask Jimmah Cahtah.

I really hope the day comes, when the policy on dealing with the Middle East becomes----"pave *paradise* put up a parking lot"

I know alternate sources of energy and progressive/crybaby PC war tactics will have to be solved to do such a thing, but I think the current road we are heading down will resolve those issues.

Hamas was democratically elected. May cause dizziness for readers of National Review and the Jerusalem Post.

Hamas was democratically elected.

So was George W. Bush.

Twice.

Don't choke on your latte'.

Hamas was democratically elected. May cause dizziness for readers of National Review and the Jerusalem Post.

In an election "certified" as "fair" by Jimmah Carter despite Hamas leaving polling places open well past the stated closure time when it was evident they were losing.

"Hamas was democratically elected. May cause dizziness for readers of National Review and the Jerusalem Post."

Kind of like Chavez and Sadaam Hussein were "democratically elected"?

This is the usual mantra to the left, as it relates to the outrage and disgust people feel towards Hamas, or Hezbollah for that matter. And I am still trying to figure out why people, in this country especially, defer to such groups as they do.

Since liberals are smarter, maybe one can answer this. Is it really possible that a group of people who send suicide bombers into heavily populted civilian areas, shoot rockets from behind homes/hospitals/mosques, and engage in thuggish behavior more often than not, can really be democratically elected? Does the campaign slogan 'Vote for Hamas, or we'll kill your family in the name of Allah" really seem that far-fehtched?

And, is it really "Democracy" when your choices are Hamas and Fatah? the people's choices were more like get on your knees and open your mouths wide or bend over and grab your ankles. Democracy huh? Even if a moderate organization tried to effectuate change, how long before their gibs were raining down over the Gaza and West bank?

I mean, I think the human brain is capable of hating Bush, pouting/being obtuse about a plan to "Democratize" the Mideast, and yet still being repulsed by Hamas/Hezbollah. Because we all know that violence in the Gaza/Lebanon was an issue before Bush came to office, so we should not dumb down the discussion by linking Bush's plan for the Mideast to it's current instability. Maybe it was stable enough for liberals, but the Jews over there may differ.

The Hobson's Election.

Hey, Bushbots. "Democracy" isn't my favorite term (USA is a federal republic, yadda yadda), it's Presidente Bush's. Live by propaganda, die by propaganda.

C-C-G. Kirk or Picard?

Live by propaganda, die by propaganda.

Then what has kept you alive so long. Propaganda seems to be your stock on trade.

Yes, BryanD, Hamas was elected. I'll even go so far as to say they were fairly elected.

Big fucking deal.

They're still an officially-recognized terrorist organization. Unlike you, I don't see their electoral prowess as a way they can whitewash their terrorist status.

To you, they're the legitimately elected government of the Palestinian Authority and should be granted full recognition as such -- and their past (and present) acts of terror forgiven.

To me, they're terrorists who won an election. I put the emphasis on the first part, and as long as they remain a terrorist organization, fuck them and fuck anyone who supports them.

Go ahead and cite other examples. But good luck finding one that did NOT renounce violence as part of the price of admission into the realm of a valid government. Even the IRA set up a separate political faction (even if the separation was mostly fictional).

Then why did you use it? Or is Dubya controlling your brain like he controls hurricanes?

"New York Times and Washington Post Give Voice to Terrorists"

Sorry, but doesn't Wizbang often give press to terrorists?

Aye. That last one is a doozy.

WOW jp2, that's quite a compliment, equating Wizbang to the NYT and WaPo who have hundreds of millions of readers counting all the local papers that reprint their stories world-wide.

Kevin and the gang should be soooo proud!

On the other hand jp2 your attempt at a misguided misdirection means about as much as a fart in a ferris wheel.

By the time you complete one revolution the rank odor is gone!

And there you have it, folks, jp2 all but admits (though he doesn't realize it) that in his mind there is no difference between a news story and an editorial.

The antique MSM gives voice to groups more dangerous than any single terrorists organization every day. We call them members of the democrat party. They are the birds that bind all of the terrorists organizations togather to hate America.
BryanD and jp2 are part of the organization that won't admit they are wrong until they and they're families are lying in the street dying as a result of a terrorists attack they supported.

Probably won't even admit they're wrong then, they'll just blame it all on the Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeevil Wepubwicans.

Kim, I must tell you that Zelsdorf is a Ragshaft family first name. I know from my father and his father, that is Zelsdorf Ragshaft Jr. and Sr. that no Ragshaft would at any time felch anyone from the NY Times. Although we all agree that the NY Times is felched.

Did another criminal bed wetter get the urge to steal Kim's identity ?

Sock-puppet infletcheration at 9:12 and 9:38. I suppose I should be flattered, but then I'd wretch. Is that what 'fletch' means?
===========================

Don't know, but to be mentioned in the same sentence as Jay Tea is an honor for me. But I still would not fletch him with him or for him.

Are the NYT's and WaPo share prices still higher than the cost of a single copy of their newspapers? If so, not for much longer....

I guess you can see,
That it wasn't me, Z.

I can't decide if the Mad King Pinch is just foolish, or cleverly trashing the stock before taking it private. In either case, though, stockholders are being taken for a ride. But which class?

Aren't his relatives leveraged?
==================

And remember when BABA WAWA was always going to those prisons and interviewing all those convicted fellons RAPISTS,CHIL MOLESTERS,MUDERERS,ROBBERS, and other liberal preidential supporters afetr all the notorious WILLIE HORTON voted for BILL CLINTON

I remember Mama not Baba. The more the bramblier the bar bar, the more the merrier the har har.
