After the Election, Lefties Admit: We Don't Take Al Qaeda Seriously

Remember when you'd suggest that the Left doesn't take the threat of terrorism seriously, and they'd immediately begin stuttering "How dare you question my patriotism!" ? Remember how they kept assuring us they were all rootin'-tootin' eager to fight terrorists and miscreants all over the world, except that they just wanted to fight other dangerous rogue states (Iran, North Korea, Saudi Arabia, Texas, etc.)?

That was before the election, of course, back when they were still trying to con the nation. Now that they've lost, they have less incentive to lie, and they're coming clean about their actual beliefs.

Guess what? We were right all along, as David Corn now admits:

To provoke argument—or in this case, counter-argument—it’s useful to ask, how does the Al Qaeda threat compare to the threat of global warming? Or the threat of global AIDS? Or the threat of drunk drivers? AIDS and DWIers kill far more people than Al Qaeda has. Global warming could lead to death, disease and dislocation affecting millions.

Ahh.... I see. Al Qaeda is a major threat, right up there with global warming and drunk drivers. I feel so reassured as to liberals' comittment to fighting terrorism. Why, they might come up with an accord about it or something!

I just pulled that link out of Junkyard Blog's post, but the whole thing is worth reading.

David Corn is a buffoon. He has this creepy inability to maintain eye contact with the camera or the interviewer and it makes me uneasy. He is like a stupid RainMan.

What?? The Left doesn't take terrorism seriously??

But they were so angry Bush didn't finish "the real job" in Afghanistan instead of being "distracted" by Iraq.

Like I've always said, Denial is the only weapon that fits in a pacifist's holster.

The Democratic Party is no longer serious.

Not about ANYTHING except regaining controll of the levers of power. No longer serious about democracy (note their persistant accomodation of voter fraud), nor about spreading democracy, nor about defense, nor about the rule of law.

Watered down socialists.

Useless to man and beast.

Well, fatty fat-tard told them "there is no terrorist threat" in this country. The people that worship him, all believe the crap he says. No surprise here. Moore sat NEXT to Carter at the convention. At least the right usually rejects it's wackos.

We won. It's over. But I just can't resist.

"The threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real, but as I said, it is not new. It has been with us since the end of that war, and particularly in the last 4 years we know after Operation Desert Fox failed to force him to reaccept them, that he has continued to build those weapons."

John Kerry, Senate Floor, October 9, 2002.

Seeing the Left squirm warms the cockles of my heart. Of course, David Corn was probably a Kucinich man, or some such nonsense.

I wanted to quote from this post, but I end up highlighting the whole rest of the page. Is there a fix for this?

Posted by: RapidTransit on December 13, 2004 06:52 PM

Forget terrorism, worry about real problems like drunk drivers and AIDS. Good God. This reminds me of Alexander Solzhenitsyn's phrase "the cretinization of Marxism", which referred to the phenomenon of people educated only in Marxist dogma consequently losing the ability to think.

Here is a why Al Qaida is the worst danger we face at the present time.

Wee Kim Wee, former president of Singapore said that Al Qaida’s reason for attacking us is to get us out of the Middle East.

Once we are gone from the Middle East Al Qaida will establish a Taliban-type country that encompasses all the oil-producing nations of that region.

That Taliban nation will then cut off the oil supply to the Western World. Millions of us will die starvation as there will be no way to transport food to the people.

Wee Kim Wee says that the Western World cannot rest until every member of Al Qaida is dead. I agree.

Jake. Completely agree. For Muslims, it's all about the oil! (Not Allah, not virgins, not culture - Just Oil)

ANOTHER LEFT WING ASSASSIN ATTEMPTS TO KILL TRUMP
If I understand this, the left-wing Democrat assassin attempted to get into the White House Correspondents Association dinner, and was stopped at the magnetometers, which detected his gun. I guess he pulled out the gun and was shot by Secret Service agents.

Important Message from Recent Convert to Christianity and Yet Super-Serious Christian Tuq'r Qarlson: Actually Muslims love Jesus, it's Trump and his neocons who hate him
Tucker Carlson Network
@TCNetwork

The people in charge [Jews, of course -- ace] don't want you to know this, but Muslims love Jesus.

Islam reveres Him as a major prophet and messenger of the Lord, believes He performed miracles, and states that He will return to Earth to defeat the Antichrist. That's why Donald Trump's painting depicting himself as the Son of God offended the president of Iran. It was an attack on his religion as well as Christianity.

Trump's trolling tweet was ill-advised, but Tucker is just lying when he claims the Christianity-hating President of Iran was "offended" by this.
He's one step away from announcing his official conversion to Islam. He literally never stops praising Islam. Well, he suddenly became Christian two years ago, there's not much stopping him from converting again.
You can track Tuq'r's official conversion to Islam with this Bingo card.

Podcast: CBD and Sefton talk Orban losing, but is it the end of Hungary? The Irish start a brawl, but is it enough, Pope Leo wades into politics, Trump calls Iran's bluff and blockades Hormuz, Artemis II! Swallwell is scum, and more!
People say that the bearded man in the video of Fartwell molesting a hooker looks like Democrat Arizona Senator Rueben Gallego, said to be Swalwell's "best friend" and known to take vacations with him.
@KFILE 21m

Politico is reporting that multiple people have abruptly resigned from Eric Swalwell's gubernatorial campaign: "Members of senior leadership have departed the campaign, including Courtni Pugh, a strategic adviser who served as Swalwell's top liaison to organized labor groups."

So the campaign is collapsing due to the truth of the sexual harassment allegations.
That hissing sound you hear is the air going out of the Swalwell campaign. UPDATE: No it wasn't, it was just Swalwell one-cheek-sneaking out a fart on camera
Eric Swalwell more like Eric Farewell amirite

Oil prices plunge on bizarre realization that Eric Swalwell may actually be straight. A rapey molester, allegedly, but a straight one.
Classic Rock Mystery Click
This is super-obscure and I only barely remember it. Given that, I'll give you the hint that it's by the Red Rocker.
And I guess you think you've got it made
Oh, but then, you never were afraid
Of anything that you've left behind
Oh, but it's alright with me now
'Cause I'll get back up somehow
And with a little luck, yes, I'm bound to win

Now twenty people will tell me it's not obscure, it was huge in their hometown and played at their prom. That's how it usually goes. When I linked Donnie Iris's "Love is Like a Rock," everyone said they knew that one and that his other song (which I didn't know at all) Ah Leah! was huge in their area.
