Senator Broomstick Spouts Meaningless Phrases To True Believers

This crap’s been bothering me for a while, as you’ll soon see...
Hillary: Bush Making America ’Unrecognizable’
U.S. Sen. Hillary Clinton warned yesterday that if President Bush were re-elected, the United States would change beyond recognition by the end of his second term.
In what way is America becoming ’unrecognizable / beyond recognition’? To use phrases like this and my current ’favorite’, "We have to take our country back!!! YEEEAAAAAAARRRRGGGGHHHHH!!!", are symptoms of a complete dumbing down and content free campaigning style, done almost entirely by the DemocRATS. The former is a mere assertion that’s not based on any concrete examples, although one (they) may infer that Bush, being a religious guy, might be turning the USA into a Catholic theocracy of some sort. The latter phrease implies some sort of theft / expropriation by the evil, greedy, profiteering warpigs of the Bushitler neocon cabal that’s firmly in the pocket of crony capitalists like Enron and Halliburton, while we all dance to the tunes of these sick, twisted fascist puppet masters. It’s enough to drive you up a wall and go on a rant, know what I mean?
"If by some fluke this administration is elected for four more years, we will not recognize our country," Clinton told delegates at New York’s state Democratic convention in Manhattan.
Once again, a redundant stock phrase devoid of content, facts and meaning. How about some specifics?
Calling President Bush’s policies the product of "the most radical right-wing agenda" in recent memory, Clinton said that November’s vote "may be the most important election any of us has seen in our entire lifetimes."
The Bush administration can hardly be considered ’radical’ in the conservative sense. I cannot picture Reagan enlarging Mediscare, or endorsing the No Child Left Behind Act, or signing an unconstitutional restriction on political speech campaign finance reform bill. But hey, if the sap rubes that make up the modern Democratic party buy this shit hook, line and sinker, it’s the results that count, right?
The former first lady addressed state Democrats who were gathered to nominate Sen. Chuck Schumer for a second term. But even Sen. Schumer had his sights on President Bush, accusing the White House of nominating "right-wing ideologues" to the federal bench and acting "like a bull in a china shop" on foreign policy, according to The Associated Press.
Bush wishes to appoint judges that won’t discover ’penumbras’ or ’emanations’ in the Constitution and has the spine to tell the UN and Old Europe to piss off if they didn’t want to enforce seventeen UN resolutions against Saddam Hussein’s Iraq. Basically Senator Broomstick and Chuck "I Love to Legislate" Schumer translate disagreements on policy into nefarious motives and equate them with unruly animal behaviour. Wonder if muck4doo takes issue with the latter characterization, being all fluffy wuffy with kittens & baby ducks?
New York state Democratic conventions are tradionally vitriloic in tone.
I hadn’t noticed, thanks...
When Sen. Clinton was nominated four years ago after a campaign that demonized her then-opponent, Rudy Giuliani, as soft on police brutality, her delegates spit on an American-flag-carrying police honor guard.
And class acts, all. Forget your baseball bats at home?
Clinton later apologized to the police in writing for the spitting.
Proforma apology, probably had her fingers crossed behind her back when she said it. The lust for power for its own sake is fairly evident based on the content free rants and the watered-down Brownshirt antics of the True Believers dancing to her tunes. Eric Hoffer would be proud, sort of.

#6  Jeezus H. Christ! Can't that butch bitch shut her trap for five freakin' minutes?

Robert, I agree. If the lefties (home-grown or Islamist) set off bombs before the election, it will be a least partly because of their encouragement by the Democratic party.

Wankers.

#5  Beautiful, Ed! Captures her perfectly!

If we don't fight the war on terror, the country won't be recognizable. If we bow to Islamic influence, this country won't be recognizable. If we get a French president this country won't be recognizable.

And when Hillary speaks, logic and manners are far, far away.

It's not dumbed down or content-free. The intent is to radicalize and enflame.

Conservatives aren't wrong; they're evil.

Bush hasn't made the wrong decisions; he's Hitler.

Any bombs that go off in the US in the next six months have (IMHO) a 25% chance of being left-wing terrorists, thanks in large part to language like this.

(70% Islamist; 5% right-wing for the remainder)

#2  I thought Chuck "don't get between him and a camera" Schumer was going for Governor after Pataki's done?
