Liberal Hatred

As LGF points out the nutroots are at it again in their vicious attacks on conservatives suffering with poor health, this time over Rummy's recent hospitalization for heart troubles. Over at the Politico the comments become outrageous, here's what a few of the well-wishers had to say:

THEY FOUND A HEART ? any chance they located a SOUL ? oh wait he sold that years ago

Rummy was probably having a heart installed, since he's not ever had one.

At least he could have gone to Walter Reed.

CBC [an earlier poster who said, "[G]od bless" Rumsfeld], God is blessing the entire Bush administration with his wrath right now. God has even warned people like you to take off the blinders and not follow these ravenous wolves, liars, murderers and thieves into perdition.

Wouldn't that require to actually have a heart ???

May God forgive all of rummy's followers, supporters, & peanut gallery crazies.

Why should any reasonable American care whether he lives or dies? Prisons are filled with the likes of Donald Rumsfeld.

Yeh Rizzo [who said Rummy's service was greatly appreciated], I bet it's really appreciated by these folks too: http://www.iraqbodycount.net/

Washington Heart Center? Were all the rat-infested rooms taken at Walter Reed?

The most surprising thing about this story is that Rumsfeld has a heart!!!!!!!!!!

Since Rumsfeld actually served on active, the best thing I can say about him is that he was not a draft dodging coward like Bush, Cheney, and Rove. He was merely delusional and incompetent.

good to know he has a heart...I wasn't sure

Oh, and those "compassionate conservatives" are Snerd? See the link I posted. Libs have been nice way too long. Live with it. You think Rummy gives one hemorrhoid pinched turd about all the destruction and carnage he's helped inflict in the Middle East? YGTBSM If that's your definition of God's way then no wonder people are running from Christianity faster than Bush from Vietnam.

No one who actually served on active duty would have anything good to say about Rumsfeld. I served in[V]ietnam and the best I can say is that at least he was not some ultra right christian sideshow freak and redneck bigot, like most of [W]'s base.

I'll end with what is closest to a voice of reason left on the Left.

I retired from the Navy 3.5 years ago. I certainly don't like Donald Rumsfeld. I personally think he is an idiot. I don't like the guy , or the fact that our men and women are over there. In spite of that, I sure as hell wouldn't stoop to the level some of you have. Get rid of the hatred and do something positive for a change. Go ahead and flame away. Show the world just how intolerant the party of tolerance really is.

Way to bring in that classic liberal compassion.

Robert Gates Takes Oath Of Office

Hat tip to Hot Air, here's the video of Robert Gates being sworn in as Secretary of Defense:

Charges Of War Crimes Filed Against Rumsfeld, Others In German Court

Activists have gone ahead and filed charges against Rumsfeld and others in German court for "war crimes." Lets see where this goes (hopefully it won't interfere with my plans to seeing Rummy once he starts his lecture circuit).

Why is it that libs think judges should have legal immunity (some have even gone so far as to say they shouldn't be scrutinized in the media), but they have no problem hanging a top US decision maker out to dry? It's going to have a huge impact on military leaders if these charges go anywhere. Doctors already are forced to make bad decisions because of fear of legal prosecution, how are military leaders to make tough decisions if they know activists can and will try them for war crimes!

Libs have put their stupid pet projects before national security again. How many times can we let them endanger US citizens?

Libs Can't Have It Both Ways

Talk about wanting your cake and eating it too, reports AP:

Gates would be expected to do what the outgoing secretary, Donald Rumsfeld, could not: Figure out how to bring home substantial numbers of troops from Iraq in short order, without surrendering the country to a new insurgency or triggering all-out civil war.

So, is this the new liberal mantra? Withdraw our troops in substantial numbers while not causing instability in Iraq!!! Not only is that not as catchy as "cut and run" (oh wait, I don't think that's what they call it...) but it's also quite a tall order. That would be like me saying "Put a Democrat in office, but don't let him molest women in the Oval Office" or "I support welfare programs but not causing laziness and dependency on the state." You can't have your cake and eat it too.

Terrorists To Sue Top US Officials In German Criminal Court

Looks like the liberal wet-dream is starting. Apparently some terrorists - upset tat they were captured and made to live on a tropical island eating three meals a day with access to recreation yards, clean clothes, a cot and a Koran - are pressing criminal charges against Rumsfeld, Tenet, Gonzales, and others in German court (because Germany provides "neutral ground," or some crap).

The liberals have long wanted a means to defend terrorists, not just against military attack, but also against prosecution under the law. Let's see if they'll finally get their wish.

Terrorsists Support Libs Becuase Libs Support Terrorists

Why am I not surprised... Reports AP:

On the audio tape made available on militant Web sites, the al-Qaida in Iraq leader also welcomed the Republican electoral defeat that led to the departure of Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld. He added that the group's fighters would not rest until they had blown up the White House.

Aren't these the guys who were practically campaigning for Johny Kerry? If anyone is shocked by the fact that the terrorists support liberals then they need to pay closer attention. If you were trying to destroy civilization would you rather your only adversary want to kill you back or want to talk with you about your feelings? I think being endorsed by Osama should automatically qualify you to be thrown from office...
