Over the holidays, one of my relatives (who could no longer stand my righteousness in criticizing Bush as a terrible Republican) adopted an interesting coping strategy: if only the media would lay off Obama, because they have been so cruel to Bush over the last 8 years.
On a side note, Bush deserves far harsher treatment than to merely be “criticized.”
…but back to the story: I was unaffected by these appeals, because it was completely obvious that not a second would be lost before Obama would be scandalized by the same crowd that had previously deified and idolized that golden mule named “W.”
The following video is, by no means, the first example… but Fox has no shame. Absolutely none.
The resolution – an amendment to a defense appropriations bill – is sponsored by Jon Kyl, Joseph Lieberman, Norm Coleman, and Lindsey Graham. It expresses the sense of the Senate that the U.S. should “combat, contain, and roll back” Iran’s “violent activities and destabilizing influence inside Iraq.” It counsels doing so “through the prudent and calibrated use of all instruments of [U.S. power], including diplomatic, economic, intelligence, and military instruments.” It also urges the administration to designate the Revolutionary Guards a terrorist organization.
No great imagination is required to predict the Left’s attack on the amendment. “Needlessly provocative,” they will say. “What we need is more diplomacy.” And, “If you don’t like American soldiers dying from Iranian-made IEDs, bring them home.”The last is of course another way of saying, “Surrender” – not a bad policy, if you don’t mind giving an Islamist, terrorist-sponsoring, nuclearizing theocracy the dominant role in the Middle East.
Followup to the Lieberman Iran work. Of course we can’t surrender! Er, but is it really a good idea to authorize military action against Iran? Cause our president called that a ridiculous idea, and he’s the decider. I mean… right?
Troopers arrested an MIT student at gunpoint Friday after she walked into Logan International Airport wearing a computer circuit board and wiring on her sweatshirt. Authorities call it a fake bomb; she called it art.
