Comments on: BDS: Until There’s a Cure http://donklephant.com/2006/02/27/bds-until-theres-a-cure/ Big Teeth. Huge Ass. Surprisingly Reasonable.

Why am I not surprised? I find it interesting that a woman who would explode at a husband who had a love child by his secretary would be, in your mind, "deranged." Huffington in no way "cheerfully admitted" to BDS. She explained why the left is angry at Bush. The fact that Republicans respond to virtually all criticisms of Bush* by calling their opponents "crazy" and "deranged" is a sign of the paucity of their ideas. It's cheap and easy, much like the Republican party itself. *Unless, of course, those criticisms come from a Republican, in which case they congratulate themseves for being willing to criticize one of their own. Lonely Federalist: Please stop, you're killing me. Wherever did you get the idea to take a lot of liberal arguments to extremes, and portray them as the liberal answer to everything? The bit about mentioning Halliburton, priceless! Why don't I see more blog commenters doing this? What original thinking. Oh, and the all caps? Genius.

Bush: "The sun rises in the east." Collective Left: "ONLY BECAUSE OF THAT DAMNED HALLIBURTON! IF THERE WERE ACTUALLY SOME BIDDING GOING ON, INSTEAD OF THIS HAM-HANDED IMPERIALIST CRONYISM WE GET FROM YOU, THE SUN WOULD HAVE AN EQUAL CHANCE OF RISING IN THE WEST!

What the hell is that really supposed to mean anyway? Just because some of us aren't afraid to say that the emperor has no clothes, does not mean that we are crazed with hatred of the President. It's really sad to me how you, as a conservative, always manage to make fun of liberals for not being stupid enough to buy the BS that this administration churns out on almost a daily basis. Amazing.
