Assistance Spy
So am I right in assuming that anything, or anyone, is fair game in an election year?
The democrats have always been ardent supporters of Israel over the years. Countless Democratic senators, congressmen and the Clintons have all weathered barbs from conservatives that we provide Israel with financial assistance and spy data, including raw data that the CIA and NSA won't release to almost any US elected official. And in return we receive censored, often incomplete and frequently erroneous data. On top of which Israel has spyed against us.
However, this year, the tables have turned and the liberals, the most ardent of supporters that Israel has enjoyed over the years, are condemning their use of force to protect their borders from terrorists. Additionally, the Democrats are attacking Bush for mishandling the Israeli incursion into Lebanon and not insisting on a ceasefire and halt to all hostities. As if the President can tell Israel what they must do.
Have the Democrats decided in this election year to throw the Israeli's under the bus for the sake of a few votes?
The short answer is..."just ask Joe Lieberman".
What's happening is that the far left are hijacking the Democratic Party with their new litmus test: anti-Bush diatribes. This has been going on for some time, but it really accelerated during the primary campaigns of 2002 when Howard Dean commandeered millions of $ in donations and nearly grabbed the nomination by whipping a blogosphere full of youthful zealots into a “we can change the world” frenzy.
(Nobody bothered to ask why the world needed changing)
The "lesson" on the left was that extremist positions get noticed, generate donations, and maybe capture nominations. Civility went out the window, maybe for good. Fast forward to Ned Lamont in Connecticut.
However, it takes more moderate views to win a general election. That's the cruel irony for Democrats...how to get nominated by the rabid left and then appeal to Aunt Emma in Ohio on election day.
The chameleons (John Kerry and soon Hillary Clinton) have not been able to disguise their fast-shuffle politics. The "loyal-to-the-far-left" stalwarts (Humphrey, McGovern, Dukakis, Gore, et al) until now have been flat out unelectable.
So the only strategy left is to paint EVERY position taken by GWB and the Republican Congress as "reprehensible". In addition, our country must be portrayed as going to hell in a hand basket (regardless of the unemployment #'s, the GDP growth rate, interest rates, new home ownership, personal wealth, you name it).
After all, if you scream it loud enough, maybe it really is true!
The idea is to create a campaign based on "America in crisis" where we'll throw them all out of office and elect compassionate chameleons in their place because "ANYONE must be better than these guys".
Get ready for another Jimmy Carter.
