		<description>The entire liberal agenda is ironic.  If all the liberals are so concerned about the &quot;global warming&quot; myth, why don&#039;t they all have windmills to generate their own power.  Because IT COSTS TOO MUCH! They want everybody else to pay for it.  It&#039;s only good when they don&#039;t have to pay.</description>

		<description>This post is ironic coming from a guy who made a huge deal out of every negative story about Bush, true or not. Remember the fake turkey?</description>

		<description>I have to say, the Walpin controversy was good in that sense. He *clearly* screwed up. You can&#039;t look at the job he did and say he was faultless. And it&#039;s not like he&#039;s someone special; any good investigative attorney could do the same job, *without* skipping the audit, making overblown accusations, blabbing to the press during an election, withholding exculpatory evidence, etc..

If you want to know who&#039;s looking at reality, and who&#039;s willing to fling mud in hopes it&#039;ll stick, the Walpin case will be a good touchstone.</description>

		<description>QiaB: &quot;Well, I’m sure all those folks now realize they were wrong about the Walpin firing and will examine the facts more thoroughly from now on.&quot;

That level of sarcasm can cause instability in the fabric of time-space. 

On a serious note, I think this could help Democrats. The more the Republicans freak out... the more they &#039;cry wolf&#039;*, the less effective their attacks will become. If / when a real scandal breaks, people will pay less attention to them.


* - More projection from the right. Dennis the Bigot et al complain that me seeing racism in the GOP is &#039;crying wolf&#039;, which is a joke by itself. Combined with the huge number of fake scandals shows it to be projection.</description>
