Pooh Parties and Rain
September 18, 2003
Liberals love Pooh parties. And...the New York Times is party central. Their little Eeyores are aflurry with reiteration, "It will rain soon... It will rain soon... It will rain soon...." At least they leave no doubt when it comes to Weapons of Malevolence...just look to the dour faces of Eeyore wannabes Paul Krugman and Maureen Dowd. Better friends America’s enemies never had!
All decked out in their dowdy frippery, these sullen naysayers arrive only to find the President "in his flight suit" or, as enhanced by Dowd, "in a flight suit and the leg-hugging harness". In some perverse contraindication resultant from the simultaneous overdosing of {his} Viagra and {her} hormone replacement therapy, it appears that these little polemists have an autoerotic "thing" for the President. They just can’t put pen to paper without multiple fantasies about that flight suit.
This is classic Pooh Party stuff. These two carpers bring nothing to the table except their specious pooh-poohing. Christopher Robin would always welcome productive suggestions from his friends. But, all that our word crafting Eeyores can create is childish negativism. As Piglet would ask, "What’s Eeyore talking about?" Damned if I know!
Rasputin...I mean Krugman is convinced that within, "...days after the event (9/11), the exploitation of the atrocity for partisan political gain had already begun." Was he talking about the Democrats’ attempt to build another unionized bureaucracy (ripe with campaign donations) upon the heap of over 3000 dead 9/11 victims? Oh...now we get it, he’s talking about, "...when cynicism comes wrapped in the flag...." Well, at least he admits that America has a flag.
Or was he referring to this fact that America finally has a President who knows how to deal with primal louts--unlike the upper west side militia whose idea of terrorism is being served a bottle of 2001 Muscat Canelli with a fish course. Duh...he must have meant how cynical it is to think of 9/11 in terms of Arab looking Muslim men. Have to keep an eye on those old Methodist grannies from Iowa.
And when you run short on nonsense, in steps Dowdy and with an ellipsised lie, "...we are pouring $87 billion...into the Iraqi infrastructure...." If the latter of Dumb and Dumber fame had bothered to read, she might have discovered that only $20 billion of the President’s requested $87 billion is targeted for the Iraqi infrastructure. The remaining dollars are for ongoing military operations. It’s a small point and it’s not "only about sex" but certainly truth should matter to a Pulitzer Prize winning whiner.
And, as little Pooh is about to receive his gifts, RasKrugman unleashes a real "nah-nah I got you"..." In the first months after 9/11, the administration’s ruthless (emphasis added) exploitation of the atrocity was a choice, not a necessity."
"Ruthless?"
Hey dimwit...ruthless is what happened to this country on 9/11. Ruthless is what happened to the Afghan people under the Taliban. Ruthless is the tome of horror beneath Uday’s undies. Ruthlessness is the litany of disseminations spewing from Krugman and Dowd because they despise our President more than our enemies. Ruthlessness is their glee at the prospect of a weakened U.S. becoming a liberal Election Day opportunity.
In fact, Bush has not been ruthless enough with America’s enemies. God forbid the "human rights" squealing that would pour forth from the New York Times if we fought this like a real war. You know...the way that His Lowliness, Martin Sheen, would do it in the movies. But Political Correctness demands that more Americans die to spare our enemies the horrors of what they themselves have either wrought or tacitly supported.
To borrow a line from an old classmate, "Over time, the one thing that has emerged, to my mind, about the left is a self-interest so grubby that it never, ever, ever gives a damn about hypocrisy, moral or otherwise. These people are like trained lab rats following Freud's pleasure principle: If it feels good, if it makes me rich, if it gives me standing, I embrace it; otherwise, I don't. When did everybody give up on what used to be called principles?"
In an outstanding illustration into the mind of madness, Krugman gloats, "But Mr. Bush’s advisers were greedy; they saw 9/11 as an opportunity to get everything they wanted...And so they wrapped as much as they could in the flag. Now it has all gone wrong" Talk about projecting one’s own pathology onto others!
There’s an old saying, "HE WHO SMELT IT DEALT IT." Krugman and Dowd have been sharing bed sheets with the "I did not have sex with that woman" crowd for much too long. They have become as sacrosanct, dishonest and delusional as child molesting priests. How can you survive the cognitive dissonance of having zero character while all those less elite Americans (who they despise) are actually good people? It can’t be done in the sane world. So, you rationalize..."I know that I’m a scumbag, so everybody else must be." This is the tripe they have been feeding the American public for decades.
But why should this be surprising. Everybody at the Pooh Party heard Eeyore’s opinion on these journalists, "This writing business. Pencils and what-not. Over-rated, if you ask me. Silly stuff. Nothing in it."
