Never blog angry.
Well, not quite true: never blog too angry. A little anger can help. Too much, though, and you end up wanting to pound on the wall; this pleases a certain demographic, and you may define ‘pleases’ any way that you like. So, now that I’ve calmed down – some – about Obama crony David Axelrod crassly equating Carrie Prejean with a dog:
…I’ll say this: after an event like the above I’d be embarrassed about me being on the same side of the same-sex marriage debate as Axelrod, except that there’s actually no evidence whatsoever that I am (I already know that I’m well to the left of his boss on this issue). As it is, I’d much prefer to have Carrie Prejean as my spokesperson than the people that have decided to publicly attack her; unlike them, she’s shown no indication that she personally hates her opponents.
I really should stop being surprised at this sort of thing, though. It’s not like it’s going to stop for the next 3.5 years.

So it is something in which no one believes and to which no one objects … There are still people in my party who believe in “consensus” politics.

Evocative characterization, Amy
LibRick (Diary) Sunday, May 17th at 12:26PM EST (link)but I think your “flinging poo” statement, while well used and surly satisfying on some level, is not a very compelling argument to your stand that liberals have run out of “political argument.”
LibRick, they never HAD any political argument to
janis (Diary) Sunday, May 17th at 12:33PM EST (link)make with regard to Carrie Prejean. She’s an American citizen who stated her answer to a question and then got trashed by every lib with an axe to grind. The fact that her stance on it is the same as Obama’s doesn’t seem to cross the mental radar screens of any of those who did the trashing.
Does this make sense to you?
I think what may have got the left so worked up over her statement
TNJim (Diary) Sunday, May 17th at 12:55PM EST (link)is that she grounded it in her religious beliefs. I’m not sure Obama did that, at least not publicly. And of course there’s the fact that she will continue to campaign against gay “marriage”.
The far-left just can’t stand that, neither can Axelsnot apparently.
And what's so stupid about this is that Obama's dog
janis (Diary) Sunday, May 17th at 1:00PM EST (link)already has a name–Bo. Which, you know, is kind of ironic, since the dog got named after a traditional marriage supporter anyway.
The Left does not have a sense of irony–or, as Moe has pointed out countless times, it has been beaten to death on more than one occasion by the antics of these people. And yet it resurrects itself almost daily. We need a new word for it.
Janis. when this first came out
LibRick (Diary) Sunday, May 17th at 1:15PM EST (link)I posted a comment here at Redstate, the day after the Miss USA pageant, that Carrie was to be applauded. Even Jon Stewart on the Daily Show, mocked those that trashed her. So, to characterize liberals as reduced to just “flinging poo” on political debate ” is not accurate.
In fact, this crude “flinging poo” adage, has been over used in the past few years and I hope and would welcome its retirement on both sides.
I understand your point, LibRick, but would
janis (Diary) Sunday, May 17th at 1:24PM EST (link)ask you to point your ire or frustration in the direction of your own party. Axelrod is not some low-level grunt, nor a Hollywood freak like Perez Hilton. He’s a top adviser to this administration and, as such, what he says is tied to the POTUS. Do you seriously think that if a Republican in Dubya’s administration had made such a crude remark about some young person in the news that they wouldn’t have been hung out to dry by the MSM and the Dems?
So, you know, if “poo-flinging” fits the crime, then poo-flinging it is. If you wish to change this, then have Obama and Jon Stewart and any other public voice of your party stand up and soundly castigate David Axelrod for his actions.

Jaded, the thought also crossed my mind,
janis (Diary) Sunday, May 17th at 11:10AM EST (link)Did David Axelrod have any inner twinges about Obama’s oh-so-funny remark about Special Olympics ? Or did he dismiss that because his daughter is epileptic and not mentally challenged? That someone could so cruelly and casually demean and insult a young woman when he has a daughter of his own is breathtakingly, boneheadedly, leftist. And oh so typical of his kind. He’s Nancy Pelosi in male drag.
Actually janis these types of people have no emotion...
JadedByPolitics (Diary) Sunday, May 17th at 11:18AM EST (link)as WE understand on our side they would just as soon abort those with special needs had Axelrod and his wife know their child had epilepsy they would no doubt have aborted her as well! however unfortunately for them epilepsy is not something that is identified until after the child is born…..it’s a win for the daughter though

It's a win for her that she wasn't aborted. Not too sure

hunter (Diary) Sunday, May 17th at 5:36PM EST (link)For the Obamatons to be this petty and destructive means they are not making good decisions in other areas, as well.
Sort of like when the Taliban blew up the Buddha statues in Afghanistan, they were at the same time tolerating Al Qaeda to run its 911 plot from their homeland.
Going after a young woman for such contrived, pernicious reasons means the Obamatons are messing up important things, as we are already seeing.
