Don, the NYT was one of the largest outlets for pre-war, pro-war propaganda
in the US media. Judith Miller pretty much staffed the print media desk for
the Office of Special Plans and the Cheney Brigade, while the editorial staff
beat the war drums like Philly Joe Jones--fast and loud. Like so many Monday
morning geopolitical quarterbacks who played a game or two of Risk back in
the day, they have supported every militarily aggressive move by the US or
Israel that I can recall. When it became obvious that Miller had been supremely
duped and the war wasn't going well, they VERY VERY slowly came around to
the moderately critical stance they have now. Even today, with the exception
of the honest Paul Krugman, the editorial page is relentlessly pro-war in
that neo-dem, we have to look 'tough on security' kind of way.
As for Saddam, few alive were more deserving of the walk down that plank
and the snap of the neck. But anyone who aided, abetted, and bankrolled his
crimes against humanity (that would include anyone who paid US income taxes
in the 1980's, among many others) should pause to think a bit as well.

Do you read the NYT editorial page? I ask because I do, almost every day,
because it's delivered to my office.

To quote Sonny Boy Williamson, you can take it as your mammy if you want
to.
Start by being, oh, let's say slightly credible with your assertions and
we
can talk.
It was a joke... Give it a rest. No one is going to change their views
on
this stuff because you and get into a debate. Or you could go all anonymous
on us... nah... boring.

There is nothing so laughably ironic as an accusation of "fantasy" in the
mouth of a partisan of the Right.
The only fantasy exposed here is this shopworn 'Liberal Media Ripped my Flesh'
riff. No doubt, this noise will grow increasingly strident in the months
ahead, as it becomes clear to all but the most deluded that, as American
Clusterfucks go, this invasion ranks near the very top.
But hey, you know what? "The media done it." Just like in the last clusterfuck.
The media. The liberal bleeding hearts. The pussies. It's their fault. If
only Real Men had been allowed to run with the ball. A couple of Christian
divisions armed with tactical nukes and by now there would be nothing left
to do except hand out the chocolate bars. The oil would continue to flow
westward, America would once again run the planet on God's behalf. Suddenly
it's 1957 again. Say, is that Fred MacMurray over there?

Thad, don't bother Don with facts. He's probably just channeling some
windbag talk show host pushing YAGF (yet another gloat frenzy).
Probably the one who likes to pretend he's objective but clearly isn't,
while at the same time loudly accusing other media of bias. Sheesh.
Cheers,

This url was not part of my post; I have not examined or endorsed the views
held by the blogger. Why you are choosing to include them here is a mystery
to me.

Oh, okay. Got it. Alliances shift. Things get done through manoeuvering and
manipulation against a background of deals, arrangements, alliances, payoffs,
betrayals. Everybody plays hardball, and the US, as the WOR Superpower, likely
plays hardest of all.
This is an admission, one can only conclude, that the unceasing histrionic
promotion of America's mission to bring democracy to the benighted little
peoples of the world, all the high-flown arias to justice and freedom and
goodness, and the symbolism...all the flag-waving and pledging and the engraved
monuments and the medals and the flypasts and the patriotic songs, in short,
the project to deify the American Idea, all this is pure propaganda (if you're
an innocent) or pure hypocrisy (if you're not).In short, it's all meaningless.
A lie. Because...well...alliances shift, don't they.
And whatever the dubious value of the word of other countries, America's
word, at least, is by these admissions, worthless.
What you are admitting is that, as the putative leader of the world, the
US presides over a system devoid of honor and justice, and marked instead
by convenient alliances, betrayal, blackmail, coercion, murder, cronyism,
torture, economic genocide, war profiteering, illegal arms running, subversion/emasculation
of domestic law, the aiding and abbetting of bloody tyrants and terrorist
organizations, thwarting of international law, etc., etc.. etc. And that's
all just business as usual from an American standpoint. Just bizness. 'Cause
alliances shift.
You excuse American agents like the execrable Rumsfeld and others when it
comes to alliances of convenience, and other temporary and odious arrangements,
yet I have seen you bitterly denounce the French in particular for just this
kind of self-interested backroom realpolitik right here on these pages. At
least the French are circumspect about it. They don't try to convince the
world or themselves that what they do is ordained by God for the greater
glory of all His chilluns. Hell no. They do what they do on behalf of their
own Oligarchy (just as the American government does), except they don't conjure
up phoney, self-agrandizing names for their efforts, like say...oh, Operation
Enduring Freedom, is one that springs to mind (????..you've got to be kidding.)
So while you and Don are somberly remembering all those poor Iraqis that
Saddam 'liquidated' to use the term favoured by your Central Intelligence
Agency, you might also considering remembering, belatedly, the mountains
of bodies produced elsewhere over the years by other governments who enjoyed
'alliances of convenience' with yours.......Suharto, the Shah, Marcos, Mobutu,
Duarte, Somoza, Pinochet....there are literally dozens of them, and hundreds
of thousands of victims. And you might conclude that the roaring noise you
hear in the background when your president says 'they hate our freedoms'
is the ironic, in many cases desperate, laughter of the world's millions,
laughing that they do not weep at the utter shameful mendacity of it all.
Also, you might remember the half-million Iraqi children whose deaths your
Sec of State considered a fair price to pay for furthering US policy. A half
million! Can you imagine a half million AMERICAN children dead from want
of food and medicine, as the result of an administrative decision? Can you
imagine American reaction to a foreign official, Putin, let's say, shrugging
his shoulders and saying too bad....a convenience.....get over it. Alliances
shift.

Yup. You and Don are morally superior to Saddam Hussein. It's a start. I
never doubted that YOU were, actually, but for Don it could be the start
of something big. lol. (Just kidding, big guy! How's that new plectrum working
out?)

I don't give a **** whether or not you have "sanctified" anything with your
"endorsement". Read it and tell me you disagree. If you do, then we've
perhaps got something to talk about, irf not, then you are categorized, and
killfiled.

...well.......sometimes when we don't we have to throw some invader out of

anything at all to do with integrity either migrated to Quebec or were
killed off in the Napoleonic wars.

Yeah Bunel, as a Frenchman .(or at least an rank Frankophile) you should

appear.

The French, circumspect?.....no.they are not circumspect. They are
perfidious and obvious and despite your verbal dirahea above, you just
dropped them into the same cesspool that you ascribe to American
motives.except you think it is better to be circumspect..........IOW, to
slither under the radar to further their own interests while prolonging the
bloodthirsty dictatorship of Sadaam for 10 years and allowed his to continue
slaughte3ring his people. How many palaces did he build. How many arms and
munitions did he uy. How many people could he have fed with your blood money
Bunel?

Yeah, they were sorta like Sadaam. Why don't you take a look at the
mountains of bodies produced by Hitler and Stalin and the Gulags pertetuated
by their subsequent successors and leftist regimes.Let's take a look at Mao
and Castro while we're at it and since you are so good at speculation, why
don't you speculate on what might have happened if these monsters were
running those countries. You spew this garbage while conveniently ignoring
that there was a much greater power struggle going on. At your request, we
helped keep these assholes off your doorstep for 40 years. Have you ever
been up close and personal with a shooting war Bunel? Maybe you have. I was
living in central America in the 70's and 80's saw both sides of the shit
going down in both Nicaragua and El Salvador. The Castroites were every bit
as bloody and ruthless as the other side and despite the one sided reporting
by the press, the people there hated them too. They murdered thousands of
people. I saw some of it.
And you might conclude that the roaring noise you

Yeah.that's why there are immigrants just beating down our doors to get out
of here. Speaking of shameless mendacity, why don't you read up a bit on
French colonial rule and the things your precious country is capable of
doing.? ......and BTW, it seems that the natives are getting pretty restless
in your neck of the woods. You might wan to think about that the nextime
they light up another city or two.
> Also, you might remember the half-million Iraqi children whose deaths your

Nope, this is your bag to hold and you held it for 10 years.
A half
> million! Can you imagine a half million AMERICAN children dead from want

Excuse me, but you must have mistaken the administration that made this
decision and that would be the French. As far as myu imagining half a
million American children dead. Yes, I can. I imagine it every day and I
think it will happen because there are leftists in our government and media
who are willing to do anything for power and also because more than half the
people here (if you believe the polls) do not believe we are in a war. It's
just gonna take one nuke. I'm sure you will enjoy that until they nuke you
and we aren't around anymore to pull your ass out of the fire.
Can you

I can certainly imagine this.......Putin and Chirac have already done it.

Well.happy new year to you too and apologies for all the misspellings. It
was a pre-coffee post and my level of typing and rightist hysteria wasn't
nearly what it should have been.

And you are the reason, you and Erlilo, and the rest who think like you,
that Europe is headed for Eurabia.
Want to save yourselves?
Start here:

http://www.frontpagemag.com/Articles/Printable.asp?ID=22563
http://www.slate.com/id/2138332/
Notice that none of these is written from a Christian perspective.
Consider, and hope, that the Bible is wrong, because if it is right, for
you
things get much worse than the articles above present.
You can call me names, you can conflate Hiroshima with terrorism, you can
act as superior as you like, but your culture is dying, and somewhere in
your superior hearts, you suspect I am right. That's what is so great
about freedom. I can stand up, in the very faces of the self-righteous,
and tell the truth.
I am right, and it's probably too late for you. At minimum, I have a damn
RIGHT to dissent from you and should be treated as respectfully as I
have treated you. It is your ideas I dissent from, but it is your welfare
I am interested in.
Contrast that with the derision coming from your side...

It's a lot easier to just hate than it is to have an intelligent
conversation.

Pot calling kettle? Your lack of respect for anyone who disagrees with
you politically is clear in this post and even in some of your "jokes."
It's odd, because you're not a dumb guy.
We're all free to have our opinions, Don, even ironic self righteous
grumbling about what you may perceive as self righteous grumbling.
Your gear posts are generally more cogent than the talking points and ad
hominem stances you sometimes serve up in political threads, but thanks
for adding your flavors to the stew.
Cheers,
-Jamie

anything there at remotely resembles reality from your point of view?
