EEEEEEARARAARRRRRRRRGGHGGHHGHHHHHHHH



Click here for AmazonFirst, the ostensible thought-leader of the Democratic party, Teddy Jo Kennedy, sounded the rallying cry for appeasers everywhere, insisting on immediate troop withdrawals, a fixed schedule for drawing down American forces, and a willingness to negotiate with terrorists. Oh, yes, and American troops are an occupation force -- not a force of liberators -- and... quagmire... Vietnam... *hic*.

And what, pray tell, did Teddy Jo Kennedy, freedom-advocate extraordinaire, say about Afghanistan's elections last year?

Afghanistan still faces fundamental threats to the casting of ballots on Saturday, let alone its long-term stability and prosperity. Elections are vitally important to the process of rebuilding a free country, but they are not a panacea for the myriad problems that face the people in Afghanistan.


Yes, it's true, Teddy Jo has continued his flawless track record of foreign policy blunders and misjudgments. From opposing Reagan's arms buildup, to appeasing the Communist Sandanistas, from his countless attacks on the American defense budget to his utter incapability of recognizing evil for what it is... Kennedy has proven himself an expert at poor decision-making, appeasement, surrender and negotiation with despots and murderers.

Now, Howard Dean takes the mantle of Democratic party leadership. Timothy Roemer, the last contender for the role, dropped out yesterday.

Roemer says the GOP is in the most dominant position they've been in since the early 20th century. He, rightfully, posits that the Presidential Election was not about Ohio -- but about Democrats losing "97 of the 100 fastest growing" counties in the nation.

Ted Kennedy, Barbara Boxer, Howard Dean: this is today's Democratic party in action. Moving further to the left, with the likes of Dean at the helm of the U.S.S. Donkey, is certain to do nothing but grow the Republican party.

For it's a wanton path of self-destruction that the Dems are on, exhibiting a casual disregard for the American center and Middle America.

Update: I heard Senator Joe Lieberman (D-CT) on the Imus show this morning. Now, that is a Democrat I could vote for: committed to traditional Democratic social issues but concerned primarily with the security of America in the GWOT.
