Rep. Eric Cantor (R-VA), the chief deputy minority whip in the House, has launched a partisan smear campaign against Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) for visiting Syria. He writes in the National Review:
The Speaker and many of her Democratic allies have become so drunk with grandiose visions of deposing Bush that they break bread with terrorists and enemies of the United States. The Speaker’s words and actions carry consequences for U.S. policy, and they certainly did our allies no favors last week. Instead of standing united with the president and Congress against the Syrian menace, Mrs. Pelosi chose to needlessly divide us.
Nowhere in his 700-word diatribe does Cantor mention the fact that five Republicans “broke bread” with Assad last week: Reps. Frank Wolf, Joseph Pitts, Robert Aderholt, David Hobson, and Darrell Issa.
Meanwhile, on his blog, Cantor is conducting a campaign to “Stop Pelosi.” He writes that Congress has “remained silent on Pelosi’s misrepresentation of Israel’s position. They have remained silent on her assistance to Syrian propaganda efforts.”
Unsurprisingly, Cantor is falsifying the record. Here are the facts:
Pelosi Was Asked To Communicate A Message And She Did. Before she left for Syria, Olmert’s spokeswoman Miri Eisin said “Pelosi is conveying that Israel is willing to talk if they (Syria) would openly take steps to stop supporting terrorism.” And that’s what Pelosi did: “We conveyed to him Prime Minister Olmert’s overture for peace talks when Syria openly takes steps to stop supporting terrorism.”
Pelosi Communicated A Consistent Message. Republican Congressman David Hobson said Pelosi “did not engage in any bashing of Bush in any meeting I was in and she did not in any meeting I was in bash the policies as it relates to Syria.” Republican Congressman Joseph Pitts noted, “Ms. Pelosi contacted us while we were in Israel, and we told her the message we gave. The message she gave Syria was similar to the message we gave.”
Cantor encourages his readers to contact Congress: “It is time for House Democrats to hear from you about how unhappy you are with Speaker Pelosi’s trip to Damascus.” Actually, it’s time for Rep. Cantor to hear from you — go leave a message in his comments section or give his office a call and tell him to stop his partisan-motivated attacks against Pelosi.
Just another republican partisan smear.

April 10th, 2007 at 11:36 amCantor makes an ass of himself every time he’s in the media.
April 10th, 2007 at 11:36 amrepugnant-repub Eric Cantor—Bushland Uber Allies LAPDOG and Elliott Abrams BUTT-BOY—TELL ME, Eric, DON’T YOU FEEL ASHAMED DOING THE BIDDING OF SUCH REPREHENSIBLE CRIMINALS AND THIEVES???? OH, I FORGOT—YOU’RE A REPREHENSIBLE CRIMINAL AND THIEF YOURSELF, AREN’T YOU?????? TURDS OF A CRIMINAL FEATHER STICK TOGETHER AND WILL BE FLUSHED DOWN THE CRAPPER OF FORGOTTEN HISTORY TOGEHER AS WELL!!!! SO LONG, Eric, BETTER HOLD YOUR BREATH, ITS A LONG DROP TO THE SEWERS, YOU MANGY RAT!!!!!
April 10th, 2007 at 11:36 amThe more the neocons bleat about Pelosi’s visit to Syria, the more they reveal themselves as the obstructionist chickenhawks they are.
April 10th, 2007 at 11:36 amRove: “You guys keep telling the lies long and loud enough and we’ll keep out 30% support base!!!”
April 10th, 2007 at 11:38 amIs Cantor representing the citizens of his State or the Israeli Likud Party.??? The Congress and Bush administration is riddled by liers like Cantor who love their Israeli paymaster more than the U.S. Impeach him.
April 10th, 2007 at 11:39 amI posted a comment on Cantor’s site. Let’s see how long it stays up. Wingnuts don’t generally care for opposing viewpoints.
April 10th, 2007 at 11:40 amWhy do we have an Embassy in Syria if it’s a Terrorist State?
April 10th, 2007 at 11:42 am————————————————————————————
The difference is that unlike the Republicans mentioned, Pelosi (and Kerry) make these trips in order to undermine the President’s foreign policy, not to support it.
Just like Jimmah Cartah.
April 10th, 2007 at 11:45 amAnother male neocon hillbilly going after a woman in the press. Say it ain’t so neocons. Hell, let the neocons bitch on about Pelosi. They truly do look like little boys throwing a tantrum. Boohooohoo. In 08 , the neocon bubble will burst. And green sludge will be everywhere.

April 10th, 2007 at 11:48 am“… visions of deposing Bush…”

Bush has a foreign policy? That’s news to me. Nice right wing talking point Ringo. Hey folks, look, Ringo just got his talking points fresh off the Rove right wing press express. HaHa! What a joke you trolls are. Too funny.
April 10th, 2007 at 11:53 amThe only active foreign policy G.Dubious has is going to the Arizona-Mexico border and walking up and down the fence line with his thumbs in his ears, waggling his fingers and sticking out his tongue.
April 10th, 2007 at 11:54 amThis ugly fool was lurking around a couple of month’s ago as well…Guess he want’s his 15 minutes of fame again…I wonder why all the lies and covering up that 5 republicans that went a few day’s before…It’s O,K, for them to go but not Palosi.? How bizarr this has all become…Let’s get Impeachment back on the table and forget all this crap…….Blessings

Comment by Ringo — April 10, 2007 @ 11:45 am
That would make sense if the President had a viable foreign policy. He’s just mad because he didn’t get to invade Iran. Syria says they helped free the Brits. Bush doesn’t get to have another war that would totally overwhelm our military so now you’re all crying like a bunch of babies.
April 10th, 2007 at 11:55 amthis is the guy who is a tad confused who has authority to declare war — even tweety was mortified:
MATTHEWS: This isn‘t an option question. This isn‘t multiple choice.
Right now, February 8, 2007, do you believe we should go to war with Iran?
CANTOR: I‘ll leave that decision up to the commanders on the ground and those in our military …
MATTHEWS: Commanders on the ground whether we go to war with another country?
CANTOR: I will leave the decisions in the military arena to—this is exactly the point.
MATTHEWS: This is Barry Goldwater taking. He used to say that.
Regional commanders can decide whether we want it use nuclear weapons. You‘re obviously saying soldiers should decide which country to go to war with.
CANTOR: I‘m here to say the military experts are those which might come up with the recommendation to the commander in chief that makes the decision. It is silly for us to expect .
MATTHEWS: I‘m not talking - I just asked you a very simple question .
CANTOR: We‘re going 535 commanders in chief .
MATTHEWS: I‘ve never heard of anything like this in my life. Never in my life.
ISRAEL: Congress has a constitutional responsibility to decide whether we‘re going to war or not. That‘s what we‘re elected to do. Those are the debates we should have.
CANTOR: Every president since .
MATTHEWS: The idea of declaring war as a soldier is unimaginable.
We‘ll be right back to talk HARDBALL with the two congressmen.

yeah, Raven. And saying the words “hard work” at least a dozen times. I don’t think that “man” ever knew a day of “hard work” in his life. Unless you count the times he bit too hard on the silver spoon he was eating with.
April 10th, 2007 at 11:58 amIf Bushco is so anti-Syria because it sponsors terrorism, why did they render suspected terrorists - e.g. Maher Arar - to Syria?
Isn’t that like, erm, what’s it called, a security risk…
April 10th, 2007 at 11:58 amI believe Ringo wanted to state that Bush’s policy is foreign. That makes much more sense than the no dialogue doctrine.
April 10th, 2007 at 11:59 amIt’s all well and good to call Syria a terrorist nation or a state sponsor of terrorism etc. but aren’t words supposed to have meaning?
How can we call Syria any of those things without defining what you mean by terrorism? As far as I can tell, we do not even have a definition for “terrorism” and if we don’t even know what the term means how can tell Syria is guilty of it?
April 10th, 2007 at 12:02 pmThe Syrian menace?
Oh noes! Syria!!!
LOL.
April 10th, 2007 at 12:02 pmWell said Congressman..nail the surrender lobby!
April 10th, 2007 at 12:04 pmThe republican hyporcricy about this trip grows daily. It makes me sick.
April 10th, 2007 at 12:07 pmAnd, if Syria is such a no no, why do send people there to be tortured? Good enogh to do our dirty work, not good enough to have diplomatic relations with.

April 10th, 2007 at 12:09 pmMy local paper carried an opinion piece by Dan K. Thomasson today — exact same thing. Pelosi’s visit “sends the wrong message”. NOWHERE in the piece did Thomasson mention the Republicans on the trip with Pelosi, or the Republicans who met with Assad before and after Pelosi did. NOWHERE did he mention exactly WHAT Pelosi had done or said that “sent the wrong message”.
Outright crap. Either lazy or dishonest, i don’t know which. but it hardly measures up to any reasonable standards of journalism. Cantor is just a partisan hack trying to make what political hay he can. Thomasson’s article is a disgrace.

and that little statement was about 6th grade quality.
What was the point of Pelosi’s trip? Why smooze with a fascist dictator who murdered the former Prime Minister of Lebanon? Was she getting advice on how to surrender Western Civilization to Islamo Fascism?

This is what they do when they’re scared shitless: retract into their mouth-breather base and just plain make shit up, like with Bush’s supposed offer of Miers and Rove under oath. O’Reilly cut the mike of the woman who corrected them.
Back into your cave, Republicans. Apparently the real world’s too scary for you. Look out! It’s mighty Syria! Oooooooo, now yer gonna need ya a new diaper, aren’t you, trolls?

It’s laughable. The big ol’ bullies push everyone around for no real reason and then complain that nobody’s supporting them.
Patrick1, I believe the best part of your argument has been flushed down the toilet.
April 10th, 2007 at 12:16 pm‘Break bread’ is an interesting choice of words. By no means am I a biblical scholar, but didn’t that Jesus guy ‘break bread’ and ’sup’ with the Pharisees and others whom he opposed? I’ve read the gospels a while ago, so could someone clarify this for me?

Dear Congressman Cantor
You lie. Pelosi did a favor for one of our allies — Israel. This was reported before her arrival in Syria by the associated press see http://charlotte.com/121/story/70786.html. The fact that Olmert chose to lie and claim that he did not send a message via Pelosi after his spokeswoman had publically announced the exact opposite, *before* Pelosi delivered the message, may help us understand why he is even less popular in Israel than Bush is in the USA.
You might add lie to lie and claim that Pelosi delivered the wrong message saying Israel was prepared for talks, not that Israel was prepared for talks, if and only if, Syria stopped supporting Hamas and Hezbollah. Pelosi claims she delivered the correct message. Her claim has not been contradicted by the Republican congressman who was with her delegation (and who you neglected to mention) or by her State Department sherpas. I conclude that she is telling the truth.
The attack on Pelosi is more than usually absurd even given the total contempt that you and your fellow Republicans have for the truth. It is not good strategy to tell lies which can easily be proven to be lies.
You are both a fool and a knave. I look forward to seeing if you have a credible opponent in 2008 as I would then donate to his or her campaign.
your fellow citizen

Oh, the Syrian Menace…somebody help us, we are the poor Western Civilization that has to go invading countries so we feel secure…and no, we wont stop until everybody is dead or buying American stuff.
The sad thing is that people bought this with Nicaragua, Panama, Granada, Vietnam, Iraq…you know, big threats.

They’ll just have to detonate a couple of hundred tests to get their program up to speed with the US. The small damage to the enivronment is a small price to pay to make sure Iran gets nukes.
The byproduct of a nuclear Iran, will also lead to an increased defense budget for the next 20-30 years.
Nothing I love more than passive resistance.

And don’t forget about their Giant Napalm-Breathing Pony program. The liberal media doesn’t want you to know about that. Why is Nancy Pelosi so intend on making sure that Iran gets Giant Napalm-Breathing Ponies? Is it because she hates Western Civilization, or because she’s a Secret Jew, like George Soros?

April 10th, 2007 at 1:04 pmRE: ‘Didn’t that Jesus guy ‘break bread’ ….
Not at the last supper, but Jesus was very clear about loving your enemy. While we do not need to “love” them by our modern definition, we do need to maintain dialogue. As a lifelong conservative (notice I did not say Republican), I am appalled by various policies and viewpoints of both parties. In the context of these posts, I am particularly concerned about the lack of discussions between the current administration and countries they have labeled as “terrorist”, “axis of evil”, etc. To put it simply, people fear that which they do not know, and if we are not making ourselves diplomatically available to both friends and enemies alike, the chances for long-term problems caused by a lack of understanding are…frighteningly high.

but to support the theory that she will be well received in the ME, as a result of BAD plastic surgery, I could quickly point to Jacko.
April 10th, 2007 at 1:06 pmjust posted THIS on Cantor’s site. Let’s see how long it stays…:

I applaud you on your efforts to show how Congress has stepped up in support of the president, and against Mrs. Pelosi. I further look forward to hearing you condemn the 5 Republicans who went to Syria with Mrs. Pelosi, as well as the 3 Rebulicans who went to Syria a week before the Speaker of the House. Also, I look forward to your Outrage at Dennis Hastert for specifically telling Columbian diplomats to circumvent the President entirely and deal directly with Congress. Obviously, you must shed some light on this fallacy. I look forward to your comments in the coming days and months holding all who deviate from supporting the executive branch responsible. Thank you.
I’m still ‘awaiting moderation’ Can I slip it by, or will i be fed to the wolves?

April 10th, 2007 at 1:08 pmNothing I fear more than blind obedience. Where are the true military people that spout the rush to crush another country for the sake of fear itself. Real military understand the logistics to actually win, not Bush win but really win. It means boots on the ground. It means supply lines, It means overwhelming support from the homefront and it means a just cause.
The Republican leadership has either failed or ignored what it really means to win. All they have is slogans and the blind obedient one’s just follow along.
April 10th, 2007 at 1:08 pmThey are absolute women haters. I’m so tired of theocratic pedantic morons at the helm of this government.

Indeed. Republicans should go back to taking their frustrations out on underage boys. It’s important to stick to what you’re good at.

Here’s my latest comment on Cantor’s site which is awaiting moderation. Enjoy it here, since it will probably never show up there.
April 10th, 2007 at 1:11 pmbut didn’t that Jesus guy ‘break bread’ and ’sup’ with the Pharisees and others whom he opposed?
No he did not.

I just posted a civilized comment on Cantor’s blog, but I’m getting a message saying “Your comment is awaiting moderation.” In the event my comment is not published there, this is what the fRight Wing Babies considers to be an inappropriate comment:
House Speaker Gingrich went to China in 1997 for the purpose of challenging President Clinton’s policy vis a vis China. Gingrich’s trip was widely praised on the right wing, from Buchanan to Boehner. IOKIYAR (It’s OK If You’re A Republican)
Do you still wonder why we on the left are angry? It’s because we love our country, and we hate to see it torn asunder by lying propagandists who act like they’re the greatest gift to mankind.
April 10th, 2007 at 1:12 pmpaul………check out the First Easter Bunny’s stitched and stapled on grin and then get back to us about anyone elses plastic surgery…
April 10th, 2007 at 1:13 pmI’m one of the suckers who had her comment altered. I’ve already called Rep. Cantor’s DC office and complained.
Next up is a complaint to his ISP with a copy to Speaker Pelosi.

So if you repeat the lie often enough…
April 10th, 2007 at 1:21 pmso disappointed to come here looking for maturity and true progressive thinking only to find none.
seeing this level of rhetoric and abject childish name-calling makes one think the freepers or a bunch of lizardoids just got a tofu injection and started wearing birkenstocks.
hatred everywhere with a side of no substance. no wonder you all could not even win a presidential election that was served to you on a silver platter.
sad to think that this is what passes for “progressive” when it more akin to a return to the schoolyard.
Think Progress, Act Regress
April 10th, 2007 at 1:22 pmSo “patrick1″ says Jesus DID NOT dine with the Pharisees and sinners.
Another LIE by “patrick1″.
OR he may never have read the Bible.
HE certainly does NOT know Jesus.
Pretty much like MURDERER Bush the TRAITOR coxucker PUNK.
April 10th, 2007 at 1:23 pmObviously the neo cons are terrified and the most transparent of lies to an unbelieving public are all they have left to them. This speaks volumes on their own appraisal of their current situation . The other wonderful strategy they have employed in the last few days is to call the critics ,who have pointed out the remarkable similarities between their policies foreign and domestic to Hitler ,Nazis to attempt to confuse their own shrinking base ( no one else is buying it ! ).
April 10th, 2007 at 1:23 pmThese are desperate acts by desperate individuals who see the writing on the wall all to clearly !
THEY’RE TERRIFIED !
For those who might like to complain about the altered posts: According to his whois, Cantor’s web site is hosted by this company.

Laura? botux? heaven forbid. Maybe you can get me a link to some photo-I have been expressing my botux fetish lately.
“So if you repeat the lie often enough…”
Here’s the rub: Iranian leader openly speaks about destroying Israel. Declares hatred for the US. In three years you’ll be able to add to the montage, a mushroom cloud and missiles parading up and down the streets of Iran.
The only repetition I predict is Iran’s nuke program and it progress, eagerly playing out in the US media.
Politics will change in a NY minute. (no 9/11 reference meant), enjoy progressive days in the sun, they are numbered.
April 10th, 2007 at 1:32 pmoop. time for lunch. Back in a few. I’ll post what happens to my comment when I get back….
April 10th, 2007 at 1:33 pmI took a before-and-after screen shot of my comment. Posted on my blog.
April 10th, 2007 at 1:33 pm“the visit carries consequences for US policy”. And those consequences will open the door for securing peace that the bushies just do not want.
April 10th, 2007 at 1:37 pmBush policy is a total failure and any change is obviously the right way to procede. Pelosi policy is level headed policy.
Black water , a private mercenary army , which has actively operated on the streets of America, with a budget of billions ,forming a 1 to 3 ratio with our own troops in Iraq ,represented by kenneth star and general counsel to the president Fred Fielding,planning to expand into ( domestic ?) intelligence, based in VIRGINIA must love this guy .
A private army based in Virginia ,GEE DIDN”T HITLER HAVE ONE OF THOSE ?????????????????????????????????????????????????
April 10th, 2007 at 1:38 pmlaura does have botux, apparently she goes to the same doctor as J kerry.
upon thinking of it, I see her in the news maybe twice a year.
Bush fanatics on the otherhand apparently can’t get enough pics. Whatever makes you happy.
April 10th, 2007 at 1:39 pmYes, Pelosi so accurately relayed Israel’s message Olmert felt compelled to issue a statement clarifying what his nation’s stance was re: Syria - not until they renounce terrorism. Funny she forgot to mention that.
Imagine if Israel and its people would stop selfishly clinging to survival and just march into the sea to die in an orderly, German fashion. Spontaneous world peace! Arab dictators embracing democracy and rule of law! Millions of poor Muslims immediately lifted out of poverty. Why, oh Lord, did you smite us with those pesky jews!?!
Because all the pathologies of the Middle East are the result of ~10 million jews living and prospering amidst 1 billion muslims.
I wonder if Pelosi struck a blow for women’s rights and drove herself, unescorted, to her tete a tete at the Royal Palace in Saudi Arabia. She would look fetching in a burqa…

Actually politics doesn’t change in a minute, it changes over decades. And you’ve had yours - dum bass. You just squandered it on back room corruption, and inept invasion of the WRONG COUNTRIES. Get a f*cking clue you st*pid little piece of sh*t.
April 10th, 2007 at 1:39 pmHey Spion,
Hypothetical question for you: Let’s say you love your country. I don’t mean love in a back seat, fisting up to your elbow sense, but love in a “this is the greatest country evah, I want to protect it at all costs” sense. And a group of people — let’s call them Republicans — start telling a bunch of lies. They say you’re a pussy. They say you hate your country. They say you love the terrorists who would destroy your country.
I am curious as to how you, a Super Polite (TM) anonymous commenter, might react in this hypothetical. Might you assert, “Pardon me, but do you have any Grey Poupon?” Perhaps you would oh-so-delicately inquire, “Didn’t we meet at the bar mitzvah last year?” Or maybe you consider responding with hostile language — you ponder what it would feel like to proclaim, “I don’t believe I appreciate it when you say things that might not be entirely true under certain specific circumstances” — but then you think better of it and instead you just say, “Are we still on for dinner tomorrow at the Country Club.”
April 10th, 2007 at 1:40 pmEveryone - email Cantor and others in Congress, R and D, and express support for Pelosi. We need to make our voices heard on this, to rival the volume of Republican noise!
April 10th, 2007 at 1:43 pmCantor is just upset that Nancy doesn’t screw her siblings like he does. Yay for those red state, cousin-lovin, deer-molestin’ Virginia values!
April 10th, 2007 at 1:43 pmWhat Iran’s president said about Isreal has also been MODERATED by the 6 companies that own in excess of 90 % of all print , radio and TV in the US ,and is also also becoming obvious to the American people .
April 10th, 2007 at 1:43 pmHere’s the comment I just left on Cantor’s blog - it’s “awaiting moderation,” so good luck in ever seeing it there.
You know, it’s bad enough that you debase yourself and your office by calling for condemnation of Speaker Pelosi’s trip to Syria when you know full well that (1) she was accompanied by at least one Republican member of Congress, and (2) several other Republicans had met with Assad just days earlier. Your disingenuous partisanship is truly reprehensible.
But, on balance, the error is compounded because you (or someone in your employ) actually changed a comment, from “People in the Sun,†from 11:14 am this morning. (In the event HTML doesn’t work, one need only click on the “People in the Sun†link to see the explanation.)
Have you no shame, Congressman? I recognize that the Republican Party is so far in the toilet that they - you - must resort to changing facts in order to stay afloat in any argument today, but did you really think it would go unnoticed that a comment was edited and its meaning changed 180 degrees in the opposite direction?
Stop attacking the Speaker and leaving your GOP colleagues out of the equation. That dog just won’t hunt, sir.
April 10th, 2007 at 1:46 pmOMG Baron Von is it really you?! Still spouting the same BS after all these years?! I would have thought you would have had enough of your butt being handed to you at the Agnostic/Atheist forum but apparently here you are again, ready to stink up the forum with your doublespeak.

April 10th, 2007 at 1:49 pmImagine if Israel and its people would stop selfishly clinging to survival and just march into the sea to die in an orderly, German fashion.
Imagine if before asking other countries to renounce alleged terrorism, Israel stopped its own brutal acts of terrorism against the Palestinians and others.
Nah, too far-fetched.

Nobody else would listen to his bullshit. I’m lucky I have a real Representative that performs “real” House work.
April 10th, 2007 at 1:55 pmHas any one noticed that Rep. Cantor’s district backs up to Rep. Wolf’s? Maybe they should chat at the Crackle Barrel on 81 more often. Man you know Dr. Rice has to be feeling like a red headed step child right now….

April 10th, 2007 at 1:56 pmI represent a large national support group for people who have had lobotomies. We just polled our membership about this issue that Congressman Cantor is raising regarding Nancy Pelosi, D-Berkley. The results just came back and they are unanimous: Every single one of our members agrees with Congressman Cantor that Ms. Pelosi’s trip to Syria was very bad and very wrong and she deserves the death penalty in this matter. Thank you!
I left a comment at Cantor’s web site and they deleted it, sure they will later congradulate themselves on the favorable response rate they got. Smarmy self-righteous hypocrites.
April 10th, 2007 at 1:58 pm“You’re a piece of sh*t fool, that judges everyone based on your own inadequacies. Dum bass!”
It appears there is some tradeoff between reason and emotion. Kinda judgemental too. I am an indulgent person, please continue.
In simpler terms you posited that things don’t change quickly, ignoring incidents such as pearl harbor and 9/11. I disagree with your ability to induce evidence from history, and question your ability to deduce any future event.
I don’t know your mind, but then neither do you.

Trent Lott, of course. Nobody’s whipped more minorities than he has.
April 10th, 2007 at 2:02 pmHow about a private army with a budget of billions operating on American soil Paul ?
April 10th, 2007 at 2:03 pmOr the presidential use of signing statements which the American Bar Assoc. called the biggest threat to our system of government in a life time ?
Or spying on 100’s of 1000’s domestically while lying on the news hour to Jim Lehrer and the American people .
Or a war by Oil company execytives who wrote pre 911 that the US must invade the mid east in order to control China and the developing world .
Or the ability to waive all rights for American citizens deemed Enemies of the state .
Or the fact that 1/3 of all Americans believe 911 was an inside job by the Bush administration.

that must be some pretty sweet koolaid you are drinking.
War crimes would suggest an international tribunal being formed. The likilihood of punishment being meted out by a feckless world, is nil.
Look at Rwanda. Nobody gives a crap about anything outside their own country.

April 10th, 2007 at 2:38 pm“See the video of university students trying to put KKK karl Rove under citizens arrest.”
Same as the one where they are throwing things at him?
While not a religious man myself, I find a rich irony in the far left’s ridcule of religion, but then imitate the same principle acts of stoning found in the bible.
If the provision was asked that ‘he who has not sinned cast the first stone’, I have little doubt that everyone who participated would have felt it their honor to be first to cast.
Quite impossible to mollify a crowd driven by fevered beliefs to commit an act of aggression. I hope for an escalation of the indulgence, if only to serve as an embarassment for the few moderates who remain.
April 10th, 2007 at 2:38 pmAs a free-thinking American and someone who loves this country, I have to make a couple of comments.
It saddens me deeply that we have come to the point where the discourse is laden with foul language and accusations. There are few logical arguments about the issues here or especially on the “news” channels. Our political system has becomme a rotten game of one-upmanship in which everyone loses because nobody learns.
As stated earlier, I am a lifelong conservative; however, I do not hate all liberal thinking, and I do not hate liberals. I respect opposing viewpoints and am willing to listen, argue my points, and *gasp* occasionally change my mind.
We Americans(that includes me lest anything think I’m on a high horse, not just a soapbox) tend to think we must defend our positions to the end, and we have to serve as a check on each other and on ourselves and, most importantly, on our elected officials. I think that’s what happened in the last election, right?
Okay, I’m at work and distracted and my thoughts may not flow well, but my point is that Rep. Cantor is obviously either misguided (at best) or a brainless pawn and a lackey. Or worse. Most reasonable people would marginalize him. On the other hand, Ms. Pelosi (and I do not normally agree with Ms. Pelosis views) did the right thing by opening up a dialogue with Syria. We should do the same thing with ALL of our “enemies”. God bless her and America…and Mr. Bush as well to step away from the wall he is up against, save his presidency and hopefully our country’s reputation.
April 10th, 2007 at 2:39 pmWhen I moved back to Texas after 30 years in the SF Bay Area, I got included in the email discussion group of an old acquaintance. It was very Christian, very anti-immigrant, very anti-gay-marriage, very not my politics.
I decided what the hell and gave them a broadside on why conservatives should support gay marriage. I got back no negative comments. A couple of them thoughtfully countered what I said, and a couple more admitted I had given them food for thought.
Why is it then when I visit left-side discussion groups that it brings up images of Nathaniel entering the Huron village and being roughed up by the tough young braves? Do you really need all this mau-mauing and invective?
If it’s your thing, by all means, carry on. But maybe someone can point me to a site where there’s thoughtful discussion going on.
April 10th, 2007 at 2:40 pmPeople should address both parties in the next elections.
This war and its cost to America and other countries is not a partisan issue,it concerns everybody….and the people finally will make that decision in 2008 on who is to stay and who is to leave in Washington based on this important and demanding issue.

April 10th, 2007 at 2:43 pmHugo Chavez ,received a standing ovation at the U.N. after calling Bush the Devil !
Seems to me that your more than a little deluded , as to the way that things lie today in the world .But what else can be expected from a man who supports the destruction of the US constitution as patriotic .

What the hell are you talking about?
April 10th, 2007 at 2:45 pmI haven’t been to this site before (I followed a link). At first I thought the folks posting here were pissed. After more reading, I thought the folks posting here were really angry. After reading almost all of it, I have come to the conclusion that “hate” really describes what I am reading.
Love, Joy, Happiness; None of those will arise from hate. Many posting here need to take a step back and observe the emotion that is creeping into or h
