What Democrats Really Stand For

Sorry it’s taken me so long to post this but had to run over to the parents’ to deal with a small emergency.

I found it on Best of the Web and also heard Rush talking about it.

I hope James Taranto does not sue me but I’ve cut and pasted what’s on his site right here for you.

Prepare yourselves for the unveiling and revealing of what Democrats in this country are all about.  Namely, that they hate America and would rather things go bad for her so that they could look good.  If it’s good for Bush, America or the Republicans, it’s bad news.  If it’s bad for America, Bush or the Republicans, then it’s great news for the media and Democraps. You think I am bullshitting you?

Read on to see what happened on Jon Stewart’s show when he had a Clinton appointee, Nancy Soderberg, on his show peddling her America hating bullshit.  Duct-tape your head together so that in case it explodes all the pieces will be nearby.  Also, remove sharp objects from your sight and by all means, do not have a gun handy (it’s not your monitor’s fault!!!)

Stewart: This book--it talks about the superpower myth of the United States. There is this idea, the United States is the sole superpower, and I guess the premise of the book is we cannot misuse that power--have to use it wisely, and not just punitively. Is that--

Soderberg: That’s right. What I argue is that the Bush administration fell hostage to the superpower myth, believing that because we’re the most powerful nation on earth, we were all-powerful, could bend the world to our will and not have to worry about the rest of the world. I think what they’re finding in the second term is, it’s a little bit harder than that, and reality has an annoying way of intruding.

Stewart: But what do you make of--here’s my dilemma, if you will. I don’t care for the way these guys conduct themselves--and this is just you and I talking, no cameras here [audience laughter]. But boy, when you see the Lebanese take to the streets and all that, and you go, “Oh my God, this is working,” and I begin to wonder, is it--is the way that they handled it really--it’s sort of like, “Uh, OK, my daddy hits me, but look how tough I’m getting.” You know what I mean? Like, you don’t like the method, but maybe--wrong analogy, is that, uh--?

Soderberg: Well, I think, you know, as a Democrat, you don’t want anything nice to happen to the Republicans, and you don’t want them to have progress. But as an American, you hope good things would happen. I think the way to look at it is, they can’t credit for every good thing that happens, but they need to be able to manage it. I think what’s happening in Lebanon is great, but it’s not necessarily directly related to the fact that we went into Iraq militarily.

Stewart: Do you think that the people of Lebanon would have had, sort of, the courage of their conviction, having not seen--not only the invasion but the election which followed? It’s almost as though that the Iraqi election has emboldened this crazy--something’s going on over there. I’m smelling something.

Jon, liberal that he is, gets it.

Soderberg: I think partly what’s going on is the country next door, Syria, has been controlling them for decades, and they [the Syrians] were dumb enough to blow up the former prime minister of Lebanon in Beirut, and they’re--people are sort of sick of that, and saying, “Wait a minute, that’s a stretch too far.” So part of what’s going on is they’re just protesting that. But I think there is a wave of change going on, and if we can help ride it though the second term of the Bush administration, more power to them.

Stewart: Do you think they’re the guys to--do they understand what they’ve unleashed? Because at a certain point, I almost feel like, if they had just come out at the very beginning and said, “Here’s my plan: I’m going to invade Iraq. We’ll get rid of a bad guy because that will drain the swamp"--if they hadn’t done the whole “nuclear cloud,” you know, if they hadn’t scared the pants off of everybody, and just said straight up, honestly, what was going on, I think I’d almost--I’d have no cognitive dissonance, no mixed feelings.

Soderberg: The truth always helps in these things, I have to say. But I think that there is also going on in the Middle East peace process--they may well have a chance to do a historic deal with the Palestinians and the Israelis. These guys could really pull off a whole--

Stewart: This could be unbelievable!

Soderberg:---series of Nobel Peace Prizes here, which--it may well work. I think that, um, it’s--

Stewart: [buries head in hands] Oh my God! [audience laughter] He’s got, you know, here’s--

Soderberg: It’s scary for Democrats, I have to say.

Ain’t that the truth, bitch!!!

Stewart: He’s gonna be a great--pretty soon, Republicans are gonna be like, “Reagan was nothing compared to this guy.” Like, my kid’s gonna go to a high school named after him, I just know it.

Soderberg: Well, there’s still Iran and North Korea, don’t forget. There’s hope for the rest of us.

UN-FUCKING-BELIEVABLE!!!!!!  Can you believe that?  This C**T actually hopes things go bad for us in Iran and Korea just to embarrass the President.  She could give a shit less about America.

Stewart: [crossing fingers] Iran and North Korea, that’s true, that is true [audience laughter]. No, it’s--it is--I absolutely agree with you, this is--this is the most difficult thing for me to--because, I think, I don’t care for the tactics, I don’t care for this, the weird arrogance, the setting up. But I gotta say, I haven’t seen results like this ever in that region.

Soderberg: Well wait. It hasn’t actually gotten very far. I mean, we’ve had--

Stewart: Oh, I’m shallow! I’m very shallow!

Soderberg: There’s always hope that this might not work. No, but I think, um, it’s--you know, you have changes going on in Egypt; Saudi Arabia finally had a few votes, although women couldn’t participate. What’s going on here in--you know, Syria’s been living in the 1960s since the 1960s--it’s, part of this is--

See?  There she goes again!!  Hoping for failure at the risk of American lives.

Stewart: You mean free love and that kind of stuff? [audience laughter] Like, free love, drugs?

Soderberg: If you’re a terrorist, yeah.

Stewart: They are Baathists, are they--it looks like, I gotta say, it’s almost like we’re not going to have to invade Iran and Syria. They’re gonna invade themselves at a certain point, no? Or is that completely naive?

Soderberg: I think it’s moving in the right direction. I’ll have to give them credit for that. We’ll see.

Stewart: Really? Hummus for everybody, for God’s sakes.

So, what do you think?  A stoning, perhaps?  A plaque of locusts to crawl up her ass and eat her from the insides?  What is appropriate for this piece of shit who calls herself an American?

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
