Wow. Don is so sucked up in his ugly stereotype of the liberal boogeyman that he doesn't seem to realize that anyone who he considers to be somehow patriotic or heroic could be a liberal Democrat. Does he consider John Glenn not a hero then? John Kerry? Max Cleland? Wes Clark? Kennedy? All the vets who ran for office this year as Dems? I guess if you're a liberal Dem, it doesn't matter what you did... you're permanently shut out of heroism altogether in Don's mind.

Et tu, Beet? Tongue

Does he consider John Glenn not a hero then?

I didn't think he was really a liberal.

A pro-union, pro-choice, pro-Social Security, pro-Medicare, anti-school prayer, pro-arms control, pro-public schooling Senator is definitely a liberal.


Yes.  He's a hero for handing us the election in '04, and making a valiant attempt at the same in '06.  Thanks!

He also won three Purple hearts. I guess those mean nothing to you.

He's from Georgia.[/quote]

So is Jimmy Carter.

You mean the guy who supported Bush in '00 and was a Republican until quite recently, until he started being a member of the opportunist party?[/quote]

Uh, a lot of people supported Bush in '00 and don't now. Back then he was the candidate of 'compassionate conservatism' and noninterventionism, remember?

If he was a real opportunist he would have stayed a Republican and acted like Zell Miller.

John F. Kennedy, who is an American hero, was perhaps the strongest believer in American exceptionalism, which is no longer a liberal trait.[/quote]

You have got to be screwing yourself. Liberals are the ones who believe in American exceptionalism today and always have, because this country was founded on liberal themes.

My congrats to Rahm Emanuel on an excellent recruitng year.[/quote]

They're all still heros and liberals.

I guess if you're a liberal Dem, it doesn't matter what you did... you're permanently shut out of heroism altogether in Don's mind.

As long as Bob Dole, George HW Bush, John McCain, and Duke Cunningham are shut out in the liberal mind, then I suppose so.

Uh, which liberal ever said that Bob Dole, George HW Bush and John McCain weren't real Americans, and they didn't serve their country as heros in war? None of them did.

Am I the only one not to think any of the things Don said were particularly strange? The number of Democratic hacks here have become so large that they actually seem to think they're some sort of mainstream now. Sheesh. Crawl back to your holes...

So you agree with the implication that a liberal can't be a hero or a real American which Don evidently holds?
