I was over on Memeorandum and I saw this story here. It’s about the torture or as the Wilsonian Neo-Cons call it, “Enhanced Interrogation”.
Anyhow, I’m reading the Blog reactions and I saw this crap here on Sweetness & Light, which is run by an old friend of Ann Coulter’s.
The Stupid Quote of the Day:
Once again we have a string of wild assertions made by the Washington Post via some “anonymous officials” and unrevealed “documents.”
Of course we are supposed to believe these anonymous sources over Mr. Zubaida’s own claims. (The Post helpfully notes that he has memory problems, due to a head wound.)
We are even supposed to believe these claims over the anonymous assertions by other government officials.
But obviously this is just the Post once again beating the drum for show trials about the (entirely legal and ethical) interrogation of terrorists.
It really is too bad that the terrorists Flight 77 hit the Pentagon instead of, say, 15th Street.
That last part is what bugs the living hell out of me. Who in the hell in their right mind would wish death or even a terrorist attack on another American Citizen?!?!?!? Seriously!
Dude, I don’t remember your name, but I have talked to you in e-mail before. I don’t know if that was your rather piss poor attempt at snark or what. But any of us, no matter what end of the political spectrum we’re on should never engage in this wishing of someone’s demise. Ever. It is uncalled for and it is wrong and I think someone owes the rest of American an apology.
I am no fan of the Socialistic agenda of President Barak Obama or the liberal media that is in the tank for him. But this sort of nonsense is totally uncalled for. It is wrong with the left does it and it very wrong, hypocritical and totally asinine when the right does it.
I am all for the furtherance of the political discourse in America, I am for being the loyal opposition in America, but the continual inference to violence towards those who are in disagreement with us is totally and unequivocally uncalled for. This is not the way to further the message of the Conservative movement and it is not a way to sell our message to the American people. We are a civilized Nation; of whom peaceful disagreement occurs. This sort of nonsense here, makes the Conservatives look no better than say, Al-Qeada themselves. It needs to stop!
The owner of Sweetness & Light needs to apologize, rework the posting or he needs to shut that idiotic blog down and go the hell away.
Color me among those that say this posting does NOT speak for me!
