Dole in the HeadlightsPosted on Sep 3, 2006
Elizabeth Dole was asked by Fox News to name a Democrat who was appeasing terrorists. She couldnt, but instead launched into a nonsensical yarn, loosely linking opposition to the long-ineffective missile defense program and the Patriot Act to appeasement. Transcript (from Think Progress):

Living in the mountains of Western North Carolina I find it an embarrassment that a carpet bagger like Dole keeps getting elected to the US senate. But then again we are deep in the Bible belt here so all one has to say is lordy lordy I know Jesus and enough voters will believe the Rovian dribble that Dole or any other republican regurgitates. Personally I feel a deep shame of what this country has become under the rule of vile, arrogant, greedy neocons and fanatical evangelicals.

What do you expect from a former democrat southern racist Christo/fascist that switched paries over the passing of Civil Rights?

This is clearly someone who belongs along side Donald Rumsfeld in the poster for senility. Please can we get some people who still have functioning gray matter left.

Interesting piece from TomDispatch on the GOP dismantling of our security network post 9/11:

hmmm
being against expanded government powers (expanded powers the Republicans opposed in 1990’s when Clinton sought greater wiretap authority) and being against a very costly weapon system THAT DOES NOT WORK are examples of appeasing terrorists
so what does Mrs Dole call it when the act of invading a muslim country that didn’t attack us creates more terrorist recruits?

Thank you for reinforcing the fact that these Administration defenders, mainly Republicans, all LIE and AVOID THE TRUTH. They lie. Of course they lie. Truth isn’t important. Only what they think in their head, only what concoctions get brewed in their bunker-like mentality, seem to be “real” to them. So why—why, indeed?—would anyone expect anything else from them? They lie. And networks like Fox aren’t journalists, they’re entertainers; they have no discipline or sensitivity or even any reason to ask hard questions. Why, oh why, do you always seem to expect it? By expecting it, it’s playing the victim, and that seems to be the role you’ve assigned for yourselves.
