Voices from the Left
As I noted here, it took long enough, but Charlie Rangel and Nancy Pelosi finally spoke out against the bizarre verbal abuse being dished out by Hugo Chavez.
Amazingly, some on the left are now criticizing Rangel for doing so, as John Hawkins points out at Right Wing News (HT: Jack Kelly at Irish Pennants).
Tells you a lot about what "patriotism" means to the lefties.

I don't understand the Bush Derangement Syndrome anymore than you do, Dodger. It began the moment he threw his hat in the ring as near as I can tell. Oh sure, Molly Ivins has always thought poorly of him as governor of Texas, but she's really far to the left so she can't help herself. I think part of it is due to the fact that he's the son of a POTUS and in his early days he acted, well, like most American young, and they prefer to think that he was just handed everything he's ever had. To some extent, he may indeed had a leg up, and THAT rankles the left to no end. They can't stand the thought of someone benefitting from the efforts of their father. It's a real class envy situation, and that in itself may explain the automatic hatred of George W. Bush. You damn well KNOW there's not a GOOD reason for it.
Will you ever name the people saying these things, or are you content to just go with "one official" or "some officials" or other non-credible sources.
It seems pretty, I don't know, STUPID to think that our actions wouldn't spur some sort of counter by the scumbags. Apparently, eddy thinks they'd just roll over. Resistance might be wrongly predicted, but resistance will follow any slap down. I would also hesitate to put all blame on our absolutely justified and righteous excursion when thanks to past admins, our track record of response has been to lose interest and bail. If they raise they're efforts, perhaps we'll bail again. Now that we have a president with true determination, the scumbags haven't yet come to believe that we're serious. They may also be banking on one of the many spineless Democrats to win in '08, and they're biding their time. They know the left in this country lacks any real sense of will or right and wrong and are ripe for running away.
No jerk. Your representation of it isn't credible. You like to put forth anything that seems to bash Bush, but don't bother naming names. Thus, your posts, as always, are worthless.
