Pro - Who's - Life

Scott Limieux at Tapped has all the links you'll ever really need to delve into the cesspool that is Rightwing-Christianist-Pro-Life hypocracy, if you so choose... take a few towels because it gets real messy. Of course it is not just the abortion issue that has these people and their appallingly ill-conceived ideas so thoroughly exposed. Take Newt Gingrich for example, that beacon of common sense and intellectual foresight expounding on his favorite subject, apart from himself, 'How liberals have caused everything bad to happen.' But, we're told, no-one should be making cheap political hay from this terrible tragedy, which basically means, for the MSM, liberals shut up until the serious conservatives have had their fill at the trough. They even dragged out Ted Nugent fer chrissakes, the man is a heavily armed lunatic that in any other civilized country in the world would be spurned as one would spurn a mainged cat. Then we have the very public spectacle of Abu Gonzalez clinging desperately to the pant leg of the Preznit in a vain glorious attempt to prevent a self inflicted, incompetence inspired death spiral. It's getting almost too ugly to watch and begs the question - does this administration own a moral compass? Finally... we have Iraq, where Harry Reid has stated the obvious and Wingnuttia has had a collective spontaneous hernia. I still don't know what victory would look like but apparently it would look a lot like what has happened up to now only different and more scary and less clinical I would imagine. Not widely reported but significant is the administrations backpeddling on the 'as they stand up we stand down' rhetoric, it has been replaced by the 'surge' as the epithet du jour but, remember, 'as they stand up we stand down' carried this blithering idiot of a preznit through a hard fought, close election only to be abandoned upon review. How long before the surge becomes passe and we move on to the next stall tactic? About 3 to 4 months - apparently.
