Liberal bleed on live TV

Watching Newt Gingrich disassemble Alan Colmes on Fox News last night ... oh it was precious. I am not real sure why Colmes took the tack that he did ... the ol' liberal two step ... but Gingrich litterally caught every slight of "question" and counterpunched with unbelievable precision. It was almost as if Gingrich knew Colmes' deception before Colmes did, was prepared for it, and simply annihilated Colmes with that wry Newt smile on his face.

It was child's play to Newt.

The basic argument was about the Middle East situation ... a combination of Iraq and the suicide pact (i.e. the "get out of war FREE" gift pack to al queda courtesy of liberal lunatics in Congress), along with the Iranian kidnappers (a.k.a. "Here we go again!").

So Colmes launches in with a softball so fat that Gingrich could not help but to launch it out of the park ... listing all the "bonuses" in the suicide pact ... equipment, training, help for hurt soldiers, and lions and tigers and bears, OH MY! There are a billion retorts to this, the easy one being "hell, alan ... congress can put money into all those programs without an asinine date for withdrawal"!!! Instead, however, Gingrich cut IMMEDIATELY to the chase ... "You don't think that sending a signal (to our enemies), with the Iranians showing every bit of contempt for the US and G.B., the democrats want to show a sign of weakness?"

Then Colmes takes a shot that could have knocked most folks off guard ... but Newt is not "most folks". He tries the ol' switcharoo ... bringing up a list of the x-generals that disagree with something or the other ... Newt totally fragged Colmes ... saying "wait-a-minute" ... you cannot find one single senior general that agrees that a 4 month political deadline for troop withdrawal (and of course he names all the key players).

It is not so much that Gingrich was able to articulate incredibly well ... heck, its Newt. What was utterly fascinating is how Newt just hit that B.S. switcharoo so hard and so far that Colmes had his ass handed to him. I was astounded when Colmes persisted and tossed up another one ... couldn't get Newt with a team, how 'bout himself: obviously not realizing how badly he was damaged ... by insisting Kissinger said there can only be a political solution ... again trying to associate two dis-associated facts to imply Kissinger supported pulling the troops.

Gingrich again bitch slapped Colmes ... so you are telling me Kissinger is asking for a 4 month deadline ... ? BLAMMO!

The only thing that saved Colmes from bleeding to death on this one was that it was Sean's turn to talk. Oh, baby ... that was so brutal it was hard to watch (just kidding, after all Colmes is liberal).

Man-made Climate Change : The new McCarthyism

The "hits" on opponents by the Man-made Climate Change Nazis are getting lower, and more direct. If you *dare* oppose them ... you can lose your job (ala Olympia Snow, various Governors, et al), you are compared with Holocaust deniers, defined to be part of the "flat earth society", etc. The liberals have also pulled out and dusted off one of their favorite tricks, declaring themselves the victors while the fight is still on.

Higher thought ... how do you know that the lunatic leftists are losing the battle? Because they themselves still don't have the cajones to tell us what their (ala Kyoto) solution is. If they were being successful, particularly as successful as they claim to be ... then they would have no fear about telling America about the draconian and insane solution that they have in mind.

I could go on and on and cover the subjects that others already have ... how the world's most populous nations, India and China, are rapidly catching up in terms of personal use of resources, but conveniently excluded from any Kyoto conventions; how not even the Fat Drunk from Mass-a-nutcases could sign on to Algore's deranged plan; how any realistic look at what is going on totally debunks any notion that humans somehow are a major factor.

But I want to drive this in another direction ... one with great hope. I believe that what we are seeing here is a dramatic case of the ultimate demise of the looney left. No, not of the democrap party, it will simply evolve hopefully into a reasonably normal party again ... but of the lunatic leftist control of that party and much of our country (government). The reason for my hope is no less than McCarthism ... which is precisely what the liberals are playing on today.

I think the lunatic left thinks it has hit on the ultimate socialist/communist utopia in Global Warming ... it seemingly will *never* end; everything in weather real or imagined is blamed on global warming, even intense cold; you can never prove it; they can inordinately blame it on the US and tap into "white/Euro guilt"; and best of all to a liberal nutcase ... there is no amount of money that you can tax from the people that will ever cause it to change!

Think about that last statement ... for in it is the "new" social welfare, Social Security, Medicaid, Medicare, etc. plan all rolled into one ... there are no limits on how much tax money they will be able to spread to their pals to wield unlimited power over us. There is no limit to the amount of intrusion into your private affairs since *everything* anybody does is tied to their consumption of energy. There are built in limits to other social programs ... eventually we got pissed off at welfare slugs whose only goal in life was to collect a check for producing more welfare slugs. For this one, however, there are no limits.

The note about McCarthism, however, is a potential saving grace. The lunatics think that they have free reign to impose their radical ideals on people. After all ... this global warming stuff will cause us all to drown under 100's of feet of water while burning to death in the sun. And they are just gunning for their opponents the way McCarthy gunned for commies (funny the coincidences). So after awhile the American people will get sick of the rhetoric and demand fact, and the democraps will try to obscure the facts to no avail, because they cannot "hide" the weather.
