The leftists hate not having power ... and they know that America and Israel are the reasons why they don't.
LOLOLOLOLOL. Off the deep end today you go!!!!

Well, it's been a very bad weekend for the radical right (neo-conservatives, as they say), today especially:

1. Bush and Omert aren't talking. Then again, Bush doesn't speak to the heads of state of Japan or South Korea either. Just wtf do he and Tony Blair talk about all day and night?

2. The rest of the world ain't exactly falling over themselves to defend Israel's generally characterized "disproportionate" response. Russia, no. Europeans, nope. Anyone else? No, sorry, they're all busy trying to find peace.

3. Why doesn't Condie Rice get her scrawny butt over there and start doing her job? It's called shuttle diplomacy. Henry Kissinger must be turning in his grave. Warren Christopher too. Can it be Rice is too busy working with the Chinese over N. Korea? Nope. She's not welcome there either. (And boy, did the Chinese do some job on our behalf trying to get North Korea to back off it's activities). How does Colin Powell manage the restraint to refrain from commenting?!?

4. Sean Hannity called pretty much all the European nations anti-semites for not embraing Isreal's over-response. Radical righthanders at least have good old Hannity to fall back on, because, ....

5. You all saw and heard none other than that bastion of modulation, Newt Gingrich on "Meet The Press" today bashing the Bush Administration for it's failure to execute Middle East policy successfully. I thought Russert was going to toss his cookies he was so surprised. No political strategy for the Iraqi nation, no reaching out to the Sunnis (read oil money) and just total and utter failure at military infrastructure. Like me, 60% of Americans and about 95% of the rest of the world, he's just tired of Bush's and Rumsfel'ds failure to get the job done.

Don't get me wrong. I didn't think the war was a terrible idea. But it would be nice if we weren't acting like the clown army of the world in Iraq. I also voted for Bush, twice. I admit my hand shook a bit in '04 as I voted. But after all, as Lewis Black says, "what the hell is there to do when your choices are two bowls of sh1t?"

6. We did see Condie Rice say that while Israel has the right to defend itself, there is no chance for peace without a 2-state solution. Nice to hear, but really, it is so very lamentable that it takes this kind of action to get the Roadmap To Peace" back into meaningful dialogue. And poorly advised of the U.S. to say this. It only serves to boost Hezbollah and the extreme portion of Hamas in importance. Not sure I'd have done that.

7. Bush's remarks today and yesterday also have to be of concern to the ultra-radical right here and in Israel. He certainly doesn't come across as particularly happy.

8. Iraq coalition nations are obviously getting pissed off at having to do Israel's heavy lifting in Iraq and are wanting to see some closure to the Israeli-Palestinian crisis. While it's comforting to know that Estonia (35 troops currently in Iraq), Macedonia (33) and Kazakhstan (28) are ommitted, ALL the nations of the world are asking, "Where the heck are the Israeli troops?" Can someone tell us why Israel has not had a single soldier on the ground in Iraq?

9. It's sad to see the fledgling democray in Lebanon being held hostage. The government is fairly weak and their army is not all that loyal. Instead of embracing Lebanon and making sure the UN placed security troops in the southern part of that nation, the U.S. and Israel found other things to do. Also, the U.S. and Israel took the shortest, easiest path in Lebanon and did not force out the Hezbollah group totally from power.

10. Whatever happened to that s.o.b. Osama Bin Laden? That guy is a mofo for sure, but he has got to be first-ballot for sure into the Hide-and-go-Seek Hall of Fame.

12. As an aside... 15% Oil. 15% Precious Metals. 70% Cash. Wait until you see the end of all this mess, which of course, will be when you see...

12. The King of Jordan!!! Once he gets involved (and you see him on the BROADCAST national news), it's pretty much a solved situation and a done deal. Get back in the next morning!

13. The world is expressing it's disdain for US and Israeli policy. The world is tired of the legitimacy brought to Hezbollah by the Gaza and Golan issues. The world wants to see this end... and the only way, according to the world, is to remove the reasons for legitimizing Hezbollah and other thugly folks. Get the peace process going and going strong, never stop no matter what... that way, there is no legitimizing issue for the Hezbo. It is really that simple. Even if it isn't, it ain't exactly as if what the U.S. and Israel are doing is working now!

Make peace not war.
