A successful RW'er has an echo chamber 'brain'

If a tree falls in the empty chamber between the ears of RW'ers . does anyone hear it?
I cannot figure out how these *&*#@!&^))%*s think.
I am blessed.

Every so often, an American politician takes an unpopular stand for the sake of what's right: Think of Gerald Ford's pardon of Richard Nixon. Frequently, he takes an unprincipled stand for the sake of what's popular: Take Richard Nixon's price controls. Sometimes, even, he does what's right, which also happens to be popular: Ronald Reagan's bombing of Libya.

...

Mr. Kerry: "No one in the United States should try to overhype this election.... It's hard to say that something is legitimate when a whole portion of the country can't and doesn't vote."

Mr. Kennedy: "While the elections are a step forward, they are not a cure for the growing violence and resentment of the perception of American occupation. . . . The best way to demonstrate to the Iraqi people that we have no long-term designs on their country is for the Administration to withdraw some troops now . . ."

Minority Leader Reid: "We need an exit strategy so that we know what victory is and how we can get there. . . . Iraq is clearly important, but there are so many bigger threats to our national security . . ."

...

As a matter of policy, this is a manifesto for irresponsibility. Just as the postponement of elections would have been a gift to the insurgents, a timetable for withdrawal now would amount to a concession of defeat. The Iraqis certainly know this, with interim President (and Sunni Arab) Sheik Ghazi al-Yawar saying Tuesday that it is "complete nonsense to ask the troops to leave in this chaos and this vacuum of power." The claim that the U.S. has become a force for occupation only validates the Al-Jazeera hypothesis that the terrorists are engaging in a legitimate exercise in "resistance."

NOT pardoning Nixon would have been the right thing.

Because not only would Nixon have gone to jail, so would his enablers who helped the coverup, and 3/4 of the Bush junta would not be here.

However, at the time, people were just heartily sick of Nixon, of the filth, of the secrecy, and of the war. They just wanted them all GONE. Few people really wanted the whole business dragged out into a series of expensive trials. He was gone, he was disgraced, that was the end of it.

Or it should have been. It seems all the felons who escaped in 1974 were somehow rehabbed on down the line, and that's why we're as fucked up as we are now.

Our country is being run by a bunch of escaped (pardoned) felons.

It is evident.

This cannot endure. 45% of the American public are fazed out armageddonions.

That leaves 55% of us who actually THINK.

When oh when are WE gonna take charge of this situation?
Soon.
Please.
