I especially liked:<BR/><BR/> <BR/>"One of those who believe that because it would be a better world if certain things were true, we should pretend they are true to help them along? Folks who believe only herbs are necessary for healing, or that you can reason with tyrants are certainly spread out across the IQ spectrum, so it’s not an intelligence issue per se (All together now: Imagine there’s no countries…). That could be what’s up with Cindy, believing that if we could just get rid of George Bush and a few neocons, sanity would be restored to the world and the Belgians would help us out in putting pressure on Iran."<BR/><BR/>It has been unseemly to see someone who alternately appeared to be thrashing in blind agony and smugly using her own personal tragedy for so many random purposes. In the end, she just seems to have given in to the sad fact that (as you alluded to by mentioning her penchant for cliches from the left)she had nothing novel or enlightening to offer. Beyong her pain, there was really no there there. When the spotlight comes on you have to have a few tricks for the crowd to qualify as an entertainer. If not, its just a freak show and even the Moonbat Peace Mob gets tired of that- eventually.Yaacov Ben Moshehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16711165551258127500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19305198.post-49559979324087511502007-05-31T17:05:00.000-04:002007-05-31T17:05:00.000-04:00Glad I am not the only one thinking along the same...Glad I am not the only one thinking along the same lines. One problem that people have is seperating people from politics. So that their whole view of a person is shaped only by their political views. Jerry Falwell is a great example of this, the hatred and venom that was birthed by his death was immense to say the least. This is another example of not being able to seperate Cindy from her politics.The Vegas Art Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09800692010017718392noreply@blogger.com
