But when your movement is the key tool of a nasty dictator, well, it should give you pause, shouldn t it?

It absolutely should!!!

Look, just because says Saddam (or Kim Jong Il, or Osama or whoever) says “The Sky is blue” shouldn’t mean you should auto default to “No way, the sky is red!”. But you should pause and examine the situation more closely, which is exactly what Reynolds said.

He said it before he didn’t say it.

Lying huh? Now who’s shrill?

But I read that at the time, Farris. Notice that he also says: “But when your movement is the key tool of a nasty dictator, well, it should give you pause, shouldn’t it?” as in, “you’re not objectively pro-Saddam, you’re just helping Saddam.” Some clarification from Reynolds.

Unsuprisingly, the left-wing spin machine lies again.

“get more shrill”

Yes, if only progressives could adopt the measured, even tones of Glenn “everyone who’s against the war is objectively pro-Saddam” Reynolds.

Get more shrill? How?!?

Progressives have already overplayed the ‘Hitler’ card. Where do you go from there? Declare Bush is Satan himself?

Not sure if anyone has seen this yet, but its official. There are no Republicans left with souls: McCain just sold his to Dobson and company- http://realvalues.blogspot.com/2005/08/mccain-sells-his-soul-to-devil.html

So true. We've got to, in the term coined in "The Untouchables," do things the Chicago way: Tough, in front and direct. None of this "demanding" that we've been doing. I think even the most active of us suffers, from time to time, from outrage fatigue. The only way to strike back is with our own ideas Iraq, for instance with better ideas built on sound, progressive visions.
