You should have seen the ditto-head letters to the editor in today's newspaper. <br /><br />Those Fox "commentators" -- just like Rush LImbaugh-- know their audience and they cynically exploit them in order to build their ratings. It doesn't matter what Obama does, to them it's just red met to throw to their slavering followers. <br /><br />The whole thing is very sad.Sallie (FullTime-Life)http://www.travelingrainvilles.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4797176281269170321.post-74083775252431589422011-03-24T09:06:53.533-04:002011-03-24T09:06:53.533-04:00Newt Gingrich in 2012!!

I think the whole thing with Libya is stupid now, too.<br /><br />Wrong is wrong no matter who does it, though I am *hopeful* that my government knows a bit more about the situation in the Middle East and acted in our best interests on both occasions. Well, let's both hope together.<br /><br />Your friend always,<br />Mrs. C/HEMom<br /><br />PS. I think also each action of government ought be weighed on its own merits regardless of the perceived hypocrisy of the party doing the questioning. I think all of us have biases and etc. and that came out sooo clearly in this whole Wisconsin teacher thing. BOTH sides (union/Dems and Republicans) were out for a power grab and they used the children as human shields. Was disgusted with 'em both. I am sure plenty of great teachers, parents and students were caught up in fighting that didn't help anyone learn anything at all. :(Happy Elf Mom (Christine)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15047347624037697311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4797176281269170321.post-45692375297158874632011-03-23T08:12:17.346-04:002011-03-23T08:12:17.346-04:00The dithering dittlewits of Congress.

Will they be any better than Libya's current dictatorship? (b) Will we soon be dropping bombs on Saudi Arabia if it all kicks off there? Doubt it, after all we don't seem to be in any hurry to 'police' Bahrain. (c) Isn't Ghadaffi using weapons supplied by Britain and the US? Yes, I believe he is. (d) Isn't this the same Ghadaffi who was Tony Blair's mate only a short while ago?<br /><br />Seems to me that you cannot believe ANYTHING that our politicians say or do, so why should we assume they are acting honourably now? Are they going to invade the Congo or Zimbabwe next in order to bring the people there democracy? We know they won't. Just like they won't be attacking China or North Korea any time soon. Yes, hypocrisy, certainly but they are ALL hypocrites...Bush (1 and 2), Blair, Obama, Cameron. They make me sick. Load them all into a cart along with Ghadaffi, the Sauds, Bin Laden and anyone else who wants to bring pain to this world and send them off where they belong.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4797176281269170321.post-15679923469020608702011-03-22T15:33:27.175-04:002011-03-22T15:33:27.175-04:00Great post!
