 One
of the unique things about this show -- and this might be
good or bad, I'm not sure -- is that I will tell you when
I'm wrong about something. Well, good heavens, was I wrong.
Let me take you
allll the way back to last fall, you know -- before the
Democrats took over and solved all the country's problems in
just a hundred hours. What an anti-climactic gimmick that
was, huh?
Back then, I
had a cute little theory that the moderate, or the so-called
"blue dog" democrats -- would steal votes from republicans
who were looking for a change. So far, so good, but what I
didn't predict quite so accurately was what would happen as
soon as the election was over.
The Real Story
tonight is that the blue dogs democrats are dead -- or, are
a minimum: they've become completely irrelevant. The blue
dogs have given way to the real face; the real power center
of the Democratic party -- the far left radicals. The
pictures you see of smiling Democrats standing side by side
with Nancy Pelosi in their fight against the big, bad
conservatives, are nothing but a charade. Under the surface
there is real venom and real in-fighting going on, and it's
happening between the left and the really far left.
I've got two
examples for you. First, after Fox News Chairman Roger Ailes
made a joke about Barack Obama -- a joke which Obama himself
took no offense to -- Democrats in Nevada retaliated by
canceling a presidential debate Fox News was co-sponsoring.
These are the same Democrats who are always complaining that
Fox is nothing but a Republican mouthpiece -- well, here was
their chance to expose exactly what their party stands for
to an enormous national audience and they blew it. Even
worse, they cancelled the debate because of a crusade led by
MoveOn.org, a group that's not exactly representative of
mainstream, moderate Democrats. So tell me John Edwards, who
bowed out of the debate first -- who's really pulling the
strings in your campaign??
The four
horsemen must be riding into town right as we speak because
I actually agree with Dennis Kucinich on this issue. He
said: "If you want to be the President of the United States,
you can't be afraid to deal with people with whom you
disagree politically." He's also out there blasting his
fellow democrats for canceling, saying it, quote "smacks of
manipulation" -- and he is exactly right. Tomorrow night on
the Real Story I'm going to expose the campaign manipulation
he's talking about and you won't believe who's really behind
it.
But the key
point here -- the thing that should chill you to your core
-- is that Dennis Kucinich and I agree on something. Sure, I
think his ideas are literally insane; but at least he truly
believes them. And, unlike the other weasels -- he's
actually willing to stand by them while everyone else
scrambles to find cover. If that isn't proof of a party
that's lost all sense of unity and direction -- I don't know
what is.
Before the
election, Democrats tried so hard to fight off accusations
that they're soft on defense by talking about how we need a
"new vision" in Iraq; a new plan, a new course of action.
But four months later, we now see exactly what that course
of action is: withdraw our troops as quickly as possible.
That's not a new vision, that's a lack of vision. And, Mr.
"Party of Ethics and Honesty" that's certainly not the plan
you advertised last fall because if it was, then you
would've lost the election. Americans aren't losers;
politicians are.
Late last week
we got a rare glimpse at just how fractured the democrats
have become when peace activist Tina Richards taped a
hallway encounter she had with the Democratic Chair of the
House Appropriations committee: David Obey. (Link to the
YouTube video is posted under the "Research Links" section.)
Probably not
exactly the reception she had in mind when the Democrats
took over Congress. There are two wars going on right now:
one in Iraq and one within the Democratic party.
Unfortunately for America, the two have become very much
intertwined.
