		<description>#85: &lt;em&gt;It is one thing to be a seditious Al Queaeda symmpathizer whose political rants are practically indistinguishable from Bin Laden, but to compound your sins with cowardice makes a laughing stock of you all.&lt;/em&gt;

This is instructive--Exhibit A of why people are fleeing the Republican Party in droves.  Godfather2 and other Republican 28%-dead-enders cannot tell the difference between patriotic Americans who disagree with them and &quot;Al Queaeda sympathizers.&quot;  They have no idea, for instance, that Al Qaeda and the Republican Party are both right-wing organizations that desperately need each other for survival.  They believe that liberals approve of terrorism.  With each passing day, their outrageous rhetoric alienates more Americans who want the war in Iraq to end.  I think rhetoric like this probably helps Democrats in the short term, but it is ultimately bad for the country.</description>

		<description>Godfather: &quot;Bow down in wonder at the glory that is Rush Limbaugh, you insignificant liberal.&quot;

Since you were probably home schooled by religious fanatics, I can see why you wouldn&#039;t be aware of this, but Americans don&#039;t &quot;bow down.&quot; 230 years ago, I&#039;m sure the royalists were saying &quot;bow down in wonder at the glory that is King George II, you insignificant colonists.&quot; 

Now, these days many members of your party bend over, but bow down? No.</description>

		<description>Comment by Godfather2 â€” October 4, 2007 @ 3:01 pm

Okay my rightard to english dictionary translates this as â€œsnurffle the purple extremesâ€ or â€ dig dug dead, the cat, catâ€ anyone else got any better translations?

Comment by Krazny â€” October 4, 2007 @ 3:07 pm

I can see why your translator is having problems with Godfather2&#039;s post -- this post DOES defy logic.  But here&#039;s what my translator comes up with:

Rush is God.
Liberals are bad.
You are stupid.
I can&#039;t rebut any of your actual criticism of Rush, so I will make a meaningless and vague accusation concerning your arguments.
Vietnam war protesters were bad, but they were better than you.
Bill Clinton is bad.
You support Al Qaeda.
You are like Osama bin Laden.
You are cowards.
You are bad liberals.  Bad, liberals, bad, bad, bad.

In other words, it&#039;s pretty much just random raving without any real substance.  I hope this helps!</description>

		<description>THIS is the reason the Democrats who supported the bill to censure MoveOn were fools.  Now let the Repugs put some birdbrain right wing militarist with cabbage on his chest up for high office and he will be off limits for any criticism because he is a &quot;Patriotic, Self-Sacrificing, Honorable, Valiant Soldier&quot;!!  Forget the fact that his leadership has been a miserable failure, and he is just another patsy for this damnable administration...he is a SOLDIER.  Bow down and kiss his feet, minions.</description>

		<description>Dear Godfather2,

Every single deranged thought in your last post is an example of why you on the right are not winning a single argument anymore. Your bipolar Manichean view is a complete failure. Not only has it translated into foreign policy disaster, but the independent middle has realized that you are talking to them, not just the &quot;far left&quot;. 

You are giving people no choice but to follow you or oppose you and it&#039;s backfiring. They hear your psychotic rants and demonizing liberals as pro-terrorist and anti-troop and they&#039;re not buying it. Please keep it up and drive the fascist convoy right off the cliff for good.</description>

		<description>I can remember ONE thing that Pace said/did that I admired.  When the press asked Rummy what should happen if U.S. troops saw an Iraqi being mistreated by either U.S. or Iraqi troops, Rummy said it should be reported.  Pace said it should be STOPPED first, and reported later.  It was (at least publically) the first and last time he ever stood up to Rummy.  Keep in mind, the Chairman of the JCS is to report DIRECTLY to the President; NOT the SecDef.  Rummy changed all that.  Illegally, I might note.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;You people hate the millitary and the American people are starting to see that for themselves.
PLEASE DO NOT STOP YOUR LUNACY!
Comment by Godfather2 &lt;/em&gt;

The only military the American people hate are the military who have been complicit with Bush in the travesty that is Iraq.  I&#039;m fairly sure that the 70% of Americans who want us out of Iraq are not particularly fond of any of the top brass that got us there and kept us there.   

The only LUNACY that is going on here is the mindset that thinks they can keep doing the same thing over and over and over again expecting a different outcome.

Welcome Right Wing Loon Godfather2.  We always like to welcome new Right Wing Loons to TP where they will immediately be eviscerated by the talented crew of posters here.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;For America to get on the right track, candidates should be independent.&lt;/em&gt;

I so agree.  My dream method for choosing a President and Vice President would be to run the top 10 candidates who get the most signatures on a petition (requiring petition workers to be volunteer only) between a certain start date and a certain end date.  Then hold a general primary and everyone can vote for two candidates.  After that, take the top four candidates and have them run in a final election, the top vote getter becoming President and the second high vote getter being Vice President.

Wouldn&#039;t that be novel?  It would give us the chance to vote for whom we want to without regard to their political party affiliation.  Just find the two in the primary who mostly are aligned with your beliefs and then do the same thing in the final vote.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;Farah highlights the generalâ€™s public remarks that homosexuality is â€œimmoralâ€ and a â€œsin.â€ From his piece:&lt;/em&gt;

Well, the religious right is looking for a candidate and Pace would suit their needs quite nicely.  He would also be very easy to beat considering how effective he was in Iraq.</description>

		<description>Did Godfather2 just imply that Wesley Clark is not a &quot;real&quot; (and, therefore, a &quot;phony&quot;) soldier?  What a &quot;rush&quot; statement.</description>

		<description>#67: &lt;em&gt;Then again, after all of your lies and shameful sedition, this would be a fine opportunity for you to get behind one of our real soldiers and show him how much you support the troops.&lt;/em&gt;

Why in the world would anyone &quot;get behind&quot; General Pace, other than to smack him on the back of the head for his repeated lies in support of a failed war policy?

Supporting the troops, for me, means opposing people like Pace and the other Republican lunatics who sent them into an illegal and immoral war.</description>
