I wasn’t projecting — that was bitter sarcasm at its best…

My point should have been obvious — liberals will be sorry to hear that will be not thousands of dead to hang around Bush’s neck. Obviously a major jibe.

This statement:
The fact that most of the American may be frightened and demoralized means not a thing to you
was declarative, not sarcastic

The fact that most of the American may be frightened and demoralized means not a thing to you

Project much?

Allow me to refresh your memory:

Apparently, things have just gotten better for Bush:

It appears that someone’s first reaction to hearing that not as many people may have lost their lives waiting for help to arrive in vain, was that it was a positive for the president.

I recall a quote somewhere about a log, a speck and somebody’s eyes. I think it may be time for a visit to the optometrist Frank.

Frank;

Your last comment was a little gratuitous. You have to remember that all these comments of yours will be exploited by the democrats when you become Condi’s Press Secretary.

The fact that most of the American may be frightened and demoralized means not a thing to you, if it means a good electoral chance for the Democrats in ‘06. and ‘08…

I love the smell of Republican fear in the morning. Seriously, who cares what idiotic rationale Powerline gives for Bush’s declining poll numbers. When Assrocket says Bush’s standing with the public is “damaged” and “beyond repair” I can only sing Hallellujah.

I swear that if Satan Himself was on the Republican ticket, Powerline and friends would still be claiming that the Democrats are “more evil”.

There’s a scene in the remake of “The Thing”, where a character’s head detaches itself, shoots out a 4-foot tongue to pull itself under a table, sprouts crab legs, and starts scuttling away.

Deja vu.

TIME s Blog of the Year projecting again

Oliver Willis points us to a Powerlineblog post that is, to say the least, reality-challenged:
Here s my point: whatever you think of the mechanics of a particular poll, the direction of President Bush s poll numbers is clear. And it seem…

It’s called projectionism. Ther American Right always pins its own worst traits onto its foes — liberals, French, liberals, blacks, liberals, Arabs, liberals, welfare recipients, liberals, feminists, liberals, homosexuals and liberals. Besides, the only way Americans would hate George Bush is because the evil liberals in the MSM told them he was a bad man who hates black folks.

Andrew Sullivan recently addressed Republican docility and Democrat attacking but he came to a much different conclusion. He said:
“The cronyism at FEMA (FEMA, for God’s sake) is a sick joke. And frankly, I’m stunned that not a single prominent Democrat has called for Bush’s resignation. Apparently, the Democrats are just too cowed by their electoral losses, but it’s still stunning. Not that Bush would actually resign, of course, but calling for his resignation would force Republicans up and down the line into the unenviable position of defending this indefensible incompetence. How long do you suppose the GOP would have waited to call for President Kerry’s resignation?

That just might be why the GOP is in power, do you suppose?”

I read stuff like that and can’t help but hope that the douche at TIME who thought these yahoos deserved to be called “Blog of the Year” has a conscience that bothers him.

Jeebus – even crack can’t divorce you from reality that badly.

The philosophy is simple.

If you repeat a lie enough, it becomes acceptable truth. There are respectable conservatives, but they have already left the circle jerk-off club

It’s not for nothing your mother warned you it would make you go blind.
