WTF?

Saw this at Eschaton, so I'm passing it along solely for the benefit of those who might not have stopped by yet:

Karl Rove was in Manhattan the other day, and here are some of the delightful things he had to say:

Conservatives saw the savagery of 9/11 in the attacks and prepared for war; liberals saw the savagery of the 9/11 attacks and wanted to prepare indictments and offer therapy and understanding for our attackers
.

Not red meat enough for you? Wait, there's more!

Mr. Rove also said American armed forces overseas were in more jeopardy as a result of remarks last week by Senator Richard J. Durbin, Democrat of Illinois, who compared American mistreatment of detainees to the acts of "Nazis, Soviets in their gulags, or some mad regime - Pol Pot or others."

"Has there ever been a more revealing moment this year?" Mr. Rove asked. "Let me just put this in fairly simple terms: Al Jazeera now broadcasts the words of Senator Durbin to the Mideast, certainly putting our troops in greater danger. No more needs to be said about the motives of liberals."


So there you go. Liberals: their only intent is getting our troops killed.


If Karl Rove and the GOP were so prepared for war, why did they ignore a quarter million TONS of munitions--now presumably in the hands of the insurgents--when they went gallavanting off on Operation-Iraq-Had- Nothing-to-do-With-9/11? Make no mistake: Rove, Bush, Rumsfeld, and their associated minions are responsible not only for being asleep at the wheel prior to 9/11--they claim ignorance, but ignorance is NO EXCUSE when it comes to defending the United States, and they FAILED TO DEFEND the United States--but they are also responsible for the deaths of our soldiers in Iraq (they're responsible for the deaths of the Iraqis as well, but some in this country have gone so apeshit that it's impossible to even bring up Iraqi deaths these days--which is odd, considering that they're supposedly bringing the Iraqis "freedom"). Not only is Iraq a dumb war, but it's a dumb war that Rove, Bush, Cheney, and Rumsfeld refused to make plans for. So, to recap: FAILED on 9/11. Failed in Iraq. Hell, they failed in Afghanistan, too. No wonder they're flailing about, looking for someone to blame.

However, the only people responsible are the ones controlling the federal goverment.

Sure, they may have won the election. But history will judge them as losers.
