The grandparents, husbands, wives, and children in the sold-out Madison Square Garden gasped. I guess you can put all the roses you want around someone like her, you can have the biggest orchestra you can hire, and charge as much money as possible for the schleps like me who were there, but you can’t cover up the classlessness and vulgarity of someone like her. Again, another shining example of a prominent Democrat’s moral values.
And how about Hillary? She barely had the accusation out of her mouth that the Bush Administration was to blame for North Korea’s game of chicken with nuclear capabilities before John McCain was (accurately) holding her husband’s administration responsible for failing to do anything at all about the growing menace of North Korea and its loopy dictator. I wonder if Mrs. Clinton had to pinch herself to keep from giggling when she replied, “This is not an issue that anyone should be playing politics with.”
But the week isn’t over yet. Sen. Harry Reid is one of the more vocal members of the Democratic Greek Chorus that loves to accuse Republicans of a “culture of corruption.” So when the Associated Press discovered that the Democratic Minority leader made 1.1 million dollars from land that he hasn’t owned for the past few years due to a complicated, some say shady, deal, Reid didn’t seem to have much of a response for the pesky AP reporter who called him. When Reid was confronted about the sleazy land deal that allowed him to pocket over a million bucks, he did what any good poster boy for Democratic Party morals would do: he abruptly hung up on the reporter. Later, when the scandal hit the fan and Reid had time to get his story straight, he held a press conference.
And finally, we have “the mouth of the South” himself, Ted Turner. The CNN founder is certainly a famous face of the Democratic Party. In fact, just a couple of years ago, Bill Clinton gave Turner some sort of award for Democratic Leadership.
Speaking in Washington, Turner said something that ought to have made every freedom-loving American’s blood run cold: “Our president said it very clearly. He said ‘either you’re with us or you’re against us’,” said Turner. “And I had a problem with that because I really hadn’t made my mind up yet.”
So the recipient of a Bill Clinton Democratic Leadership Award can’t decide which side he’s on, ours or the terrorists.
Yeah, those polls must be right. Democrats are all about values and morals and we Republicans are just, well, evil.
Heck, if a poll about morality in our political parties is so laughable, maybe Republican candidates won’t do so badly after all on November 7th. Perhaps the GOP is going to deliver a “November Surprise” to all the “October Surprises” that have been thrown their way.
