You know, I'm really starting to think that Democratic Underground is just a parody site to make the left look stupid. I know that I have no faith in humanity, so their incredible ignorance shouldn't surprise me, but seriously...how could someone genuinely believe that they moved up the power transfer by 2 days just to overshadow Michael Moore? And look at this line from the thread I linked in the last post:
Glad to have another intelligent voice added to the cacophonous din of the anti-fascist, anti-imperialist chorus emanating from the foremost bastion of free speech this side of France! Together, we're going to spread the word about * and his sordid deeds and equally depraved henchmen, and DARE anyone to vote for this drug-addled frat-boy again!
It's a forkin' joke! These people are not really liberals! It's all just a huge inside joke!
...I really wish I was right about this.
UPDATE
As long as I'm talking about DU, here's an interesting observation: Whenever President Bush has his picture taken, the posters start in with the "photo op" accusations and try to prove that he doesn't really care about America (remember "Turkeygate?"). So, when Bremer hands over complete power to the Iraqis in a quiet ceremony without Bush even aware, what do they say?
I thought they'd try to squeeze some photo ops out of the handover. The way they've done it looks more like the sale of a used car with Bremer handing over the title.It shows how little any of this had to do with the Iraqi people. They just had the whole mess dumped in their laps...
I know it damn near killed Bush not to have his pictures all of the TV news and newspapers showing him doing the handover. In stead, the errand boy got all the publicity.
See what I mean? If they were real, all that cognitive dissonance would kill them instantly!
