Number of people freed from totalitarian dictatorships by precision use of American military force under George W. Bush:
50 million in just two years

Number of people freed from totalitarian dictatorships by anti-American Bush-bashing terrorist-appeasing whining elitists:
Zero. Ever.
...

The problem seems to me to be the definition of "free speech". Liberals define it as anything they want to say or do that opposes America. I say "speech" ends where "action" begins. Once you pick up a gun for the enemy, throw a rock at a cop during a "peace" march, send money to a terrorist organisation, or travel to Baghdad to block an American JDAM with your ass, you have crossed the line from free speech to costly action.
...

Saying the War on Terror is all about al-Qaeda is like saying we should have fought the Japanese Naval Air Force after Pearl Harbor. Not the Japanese Navy, not the Japanese Army, not the Empire of Japan -- just the Naval Air Force.
...

Complaining about the "waste" when human embryos are destroyed instead of being used in medical experiments is a lot like going to a funeral and complaining about the waste of perfectly good meat.
...

Blaming CO2 for climate change is like blaming smoke for the fire. CO2 is largely a following, not a leading, indicator of a rise in temperature.
...

Cavalier's First Theorem:
Every time, Liberals will fight to protect the guilty and kill the innocent, while Conservatives will fight to protect the innocent and punish the guilty.

Cavalier's Second Theorem:
Liberals are just Socialists who want to be loved... then again, Socialists are just Communists who lack the courage of their convictions.

Cavalier's Third Theorem:
Any strongly moral, hawkish or pro-American statement by a Liberal will inevitably be followed by a "but."

Year of the Liberal

With Mitt Romney pulling out of the Presidential race, 2008 will be the Year of the Liberal no matter who wins. Whether the next President is McCain, Clinton or Obama, we're getting amnesty and citizenship for criminal trespassers, global warming alarmism, punitive tax hikes labeled "no tax cuts for the rich," anti-business legislation aimed strictly at American corporations and judges who will have to be vetted by Pat Leahy and Harry Reid (or they won't get a vote). I'd rather we get those things forced down our throats under the Democratic imprimatur than the Republican. Moreover, Conservatives on Capitol Hill have a better chance of getting the more Liberal Republicans to stand with them to block legislation under a Democratic President than under a Liberal Republican President, whom most of the Republicans would support. If McCain is in fact the Republican nominee, it looks as though I will -- however reluctantly -- be rooting for a Democrat to win the White House, though I could never bring myself to vote for him or her. The only hope to stop the Liberal agenda is to let the Democrats take the White House, but put as many Republicans in Congress as possible. It only takes forty Senators to filibuster any bill.

UPDATE: Some Conservatives have said that they will reluctantly vote for McCain because the Democrats would pull out of Iraq. But with the Iraqis taking responsibility for more of their country every day, and the terrorists reduced to begging for help and using retarded women as unwitting suicide bombers, another year or so will almost certainly see Iraq in a place where we can officially turn everything over to the Iraqi government. And since the next President won't take office for another year, and there's no way on Earth to pull the troops out before at least another six to nine months after that, there's no need to sacrifice the future of our own country and the Republican party for Iraq. And that's what a vote for McCain would do -- surrender our own country to amnesty, tax hikes, anti-business legislation and all the rest of the agenda that Republicans in Congress could not fight under McCain, but may fight under a Democrat.

I am just sick... I know why Mitt lost the primary, he did act like a bit of a jackass (as did McCain) with all the attacking. He should've waited until McCain had been the ugly one. Oh well, there's always 2012!

Two questions. If Obama is president, would he really be worse than four years of "bi-partisan" legislation between a Democrat congress and John "RINO" McCain? Second, if Hillary is president, is there a chance that the nation will react strong enough at mid-term elections to give congress back to the Republicans?

No way will I ever vote for McCain.

I'd rather see Hillary get the White House. She's a more polarising figure; it'd be easier for Republicans to stick together to fight her.

If there are enough Republicans in the Senate to filibuster Democratic legislation, they may have a shot at taking at least one House of Congress back. But only if they fight.

Perhaps Mitt was a bit strong in his "attacks," but there's a difference between attacking a person's voting record and attacking their character. Not once did I see Mitt use the wrong attack.

Again, I have to say that I admire the strength of your convictions. I understand the reasons behind them. I can't say I agree fully with the argument, but I respect it. If many feel as you do, then I'll certainly be a happy camper come November. At least it has you blogging again, and that's a good thing!

I haven’t received your email blast for months now. Not since you decided to ‘cancel’ my subscription to it after chastising you for telling us how you would not vote for Giulianni if he were the Republican nominee. Now I see, in your post on Thursday Feb. 7 – ‘Year of the Liberal’, that you’ve remained consistent in your pursuit of failure for the Republican party in 2008. Strange how someone can be so diluted by their political philosophy as to somehow count losing as winning. (“Woe unto them that call evil good and good evil…”)

To base your decision about this country’s imminent future on your theory that it would be better if a man with a paternal relationship to an America hating Afro-Liberation Theologian and political arrangements with American terrorists and Hamas and Hezbollah lackeys; a man whose wife, living and working in elite circles and who enjoys a uniquely American lifestyle of opulence and renown, can’t find one good thing to say about her country and continues to stump with the zeal of Lenin himself, should become president based on your assumptions about the sympathies of particular Democratic legislators. You must spend a lot of time in casinos my friend because that is a gamble rational people can’t afford to make.

Certainly more of a tantrum than a strategy.

Thank you, Bush and Kerry, for bringing about the Year of the Liberal! There's a certain temptation to be smug about how much of a disaster Bush has been, and waking up people to the fact that even lousy Kerry would have been a better president.

But, hot damn! This awakening came back to the American people with an almost atavistic force. However the election goes, Americans everywhere have already said to conservatives: f*** you and the neocon wankers you rode in on.

You'd better vote for McCain, because Obama is going to show you real "uniter" leadership if he gets in office. It is going to drive conservative partisans red faced and crazy with frustrated rage.
