Wasting Time With Alex

Oh how it sucks to be libtard.

I have to admit that I do not usually read liberal writers because I know how deluded the majority of them are, but then again and every once in a while, you come across something that proves what we know about them like how democrats only proper when bad things happen to America/41543/. First this tool rambles on about how the surge is working in Iraq and how now that issue has evaporated from their potential arsenal to bash the right with in 2008. Then he cries about how now Embryonic Stem Cells and that issue has also evaporated for them. He continues on with a short discussion about the peace meetings in Washington between Israel and the Arab contingent about the Palestinian issue, and after somehow twisting himself into a pretzel to say that if it works the left can then use that to make the argument negotiations do work. But he then tacitly admits that the left would be left with a dirty taste in their mouths because Bush was the one to make it happen. Just like they have when the issue of the Cold War comes up and Reagan’s role has to be acknowledged. Of course I had a chuckle over that because I know way too many liberals that think the wrong side won the Cold War to begin with, and they would never feel anything but sadness at the passing of the USSR. Most of them pine for the good old USSR to check evil America and show us the wonders of collectivism. Anyway, he finally gets to the good news: the economy might be about to hit a recession!

And so for Democrats, every news story pointing to imminent economic ugliness is a gift. Such is our duplicitous American version of Leninism lite: The worse, the better—but don’t ever say so. Our cynical Bizarro selves must remain closeted.

Big good-news stories are alarming, big bad-news stories are heartening—and applying the template of one’s own agendas also makes small, lurid, inconsequential news stories fascinating. I’m talking about the book publisher Judith Regan’s lawsuit against News Corp., which fired her a year ago after Rupert Murdoch decided that the tsuris was no longer worth the profits she generated. For me the legal fight is Godzilla vs. Mothra—even though I think Regan was very badly treated, I’m not really rooting for either side to win. But I am desperate for the depositions and discovery and trial testimony.

So he basically points out how bad news for America is good news for the democrats. The rest of this article is more of the usual lib drivel. And I have to say he is not the first lib that I have heard comment with glee that we might be hitting a recession - look at how the MSM has been covering any financial news and see the negative slant for proof - and that while that will hurt the average American, and possible badly, it will help get a democrat into the WH. Think about that. How screwed up must you be that you pray and live for bad news so you side can have power? Even worse, what does that say about your side? Again, what hurts us in America helps democrats.
