To the shores of Tripoli we came to our liegeman K man with the promise that if he paid for the blood of our soldiers, civilians and airplane we would negotiaite a new oil deal.
The K man also had to give back the atomic stuff he got from our vassal Pakistan Nuclear Industries.
We Guaranteed K mans son’s succesion to lead Libya when he stepped down.
Democracy , please this is business.

Please note the rude guy (Bill something) and his policies of hurling cruise missles at the K man’s house would never be used against a partner.

P.S. One word comes to mind about Leftists, and leftist bloggers in general: unserious.

Pilgrim: Totally agree. The reality of Islamic militancy and terrorism is revealed by the current events. Something is actually happening, and the outcome of the conflict will drastically affect the situation in the ME for some time to come. It's really real.

Praise the Lord for the Ken McCracken/ Sayanything rapid deployment forces.

Woof: Ever the defeatist, I see.

I wondered how long it would take before bloggers would start attacking bloggers as politicians do.

To paraphrase a great man:

"I have a dream. That one day, bloggers will be judged not by the colorfulness of their theme and templates, but by the content of their posts."

Ken, I gotta disagree with your title here. Not one of the idiots you cited are catblogging. Meanwhile, Laurence Simon is busily both catblogging and discussing the war.

Give the cats and the catbloggers a little slack, will ya?

J.

kind of like george bush joking about eating a fucking pig in Germany and knocking down beers in Russia

Defeatist,no just responding to the ridiculous
posting that the left blogoshere is not covering the Mid-east.
Catbloging drives they right apoplectic cause they have been afraid of pussies since universal suffrage.

moonbatman– Yes, we (they) have. Note the change in Germany to the CDU — conservative party, the resounding defeat of the former Canadian Liberal party by an outright vote of no confidence, the first in over 100 years. Next, the Mexican government's conservative PM, I am waiting for France's election.

We are not appreciated in : North Korea, Cuba, several South American strongman governments, and probably Russia, but that's not bad as we have been fighting communism there for over 75 years since FDR gave away several countries to Stalin and turned them into slaves, especially Hungary. I assume you are voting in the US this November. We will see how the real polls match up to the biased and skewed ones put on by the liberal media.

Moammar Khaddafi gave up his nuclear program.

I bet moonbatman thinks we can thank the song 'Kumbaya' for that.

Thank God that George W. Bush, Dick Cheney and the Republican Party have built up a huge amount of respect for the United States in the world community as a rational and reasonable voice so that we can swoop in and straighten things out.

It seems to me like we've got more respect in the international community. In Canada and Germany two fircely anti-Bush, anti-American leaders were replaced with more "right-wing" (generally) leaders in Stephen Harper and Angela Merkel. Merkel, in fact, has so far become a staunch ally of the Bush administration and Harper certainly has Canada on more friendly terms with the U.S. than his predecessor ever did.

In Australia John Howard has won re-election in the past year, and he's been another staunch supporter of President Bush not to mention the war in Iraq. Tony Blair himself recently won re-election, though he often seems to be in political hotwater in his country.

It seems to me that rather than deteroriating international diplomacy, Bush has spawned something of a resurgence of pro-American sentiment among the international community. It's not complete, of course, as there are still Chiracs out there…but your conclusion that we've "lost the respect of the world" is what really should be making people laugh.

Realityboob, why don't you just make your own points instead constantly quoting cryptic passages and linking us elsewhere?

You disagree with something? Tell us, and tell us why.

Try thinking for yourself for once.

Criticized for no links then criticized for links

If you're going to quote something, link it, but my point here is that your comments are almost never your own words. You're always quoting someone else.

Again, try thinking for yourself. People may actually start taking you seriously then.

Without exception, I have not seen in this blog any hateful comments that wasn't first instigated by leftists.

How did this thread start?

Rob, etal, if we have garnered so much more respect from these new conservative leaders, soon they'll be putting their troops in harm's way so our men and women can get a well-deserved break. I won't hold my breath though. This so-called "respect of Bush" only goes so far.
