The Right Going to Far

 
Every time Gibson decries the "far lefties" as agents of terrorism, a suicide bomber thinks he won't die in vain.
 
 
 Chris Matthews who stated bin Laden "sounds like an over the top Michael Moore here, if not a Michael Moore." And Joe Scarborough had an orgasmic experience with Tucker Carlson yesterday: they gushed over clips juxtapos ing statements of John Kerry, Howard Dean, John Murtha, and Ted Kennedy with bin Laden's words. The GOP talking point saturated the air waves: bin Laden and liberals are on the same side, ergo, liberals are aiding the terrorists.
Silly, silly newsreaders. This is exactly the dialogue bin Laden wants. Every time Gibson decries the "far lefties" as agents of terrorism, a suicide bomber thinks he won't die in vain. Because you see, their purpose is to destroy our nation by turning it against itself. What joy they take when propagandists like Gibson and Tweety marginalize half the American people.  How delighted bin Laden must be, chuckling away in his cave as he hears Limbaugh on his satellite radio  claiming the left is sabotaging the War on Terror and bringing on the destruction of America.
Why does such spin and lies please our enemies so? Because every time Bush's minions lie in this manner, it takes away attention from the real problems with the War on Terror and the war in Iraq. Focusing on the lie that the left is somehow conspiring with Al Qaeda deflects attention away from the true shortfalls in our national security.
Bin Laden's tape triggered, on cue, a flurry of anti-liberal sentiment, instead of a critical analysis of our nation's security. He made a threat against our homeland, but the always useless "color coded threat level" didn't budge. Yet instead of asking why the defunct system is still in place, Gibson & Co. are laughing at how Bin Laden quoted withdrawal polls.
Bin Laden made a threat against our homeland. Instead of reporting that five years after 9/11, our government still receives a failing grade in terms of securing our soil, Rush & Co. blame liberals for failures in the War on Terror.
Employing the language of treason is to be expected, I suppose, with a media more concerned with promoting an agenda rather than reporting fact. But one fact does remain: when another terrorist occurs on American soil, they cannot blame us liberals who tried to save this nation. They can only blame the terrorists--and themselves. For time and time again, they've failed to hold our government accountable when it comes to securing our homeland
