What Proof - Who Cares

I was just reading through the local newspaper, something that I try not to do very often, and the comments section is just something to behold. I live in the epia center of liberals, Madison Wisconsin.

I have said many times before and I will say it again - I just don't know who these people are. The paper that I read is the one that is suppose to be the middle of the road publication in this town, The Wisconsin State Journal. The other newspaper, evening, is just a Marxist rag. They are left of Lenin and worse. They rail on any body or anything that is Republican or conservative. Character assassination is their stock and trade. They say anything they can think of that is negative, it doesn't have to be true. But then there are a lot of papers that do that and the ones that come to mind right away are the New York Times and the Washington Post. Pillars of distortion and misinformation.

But getting back to the local tabloids, the ranting of the locals is like being in a different country and listening to the people there tell you how they hate America and how everything in the world that is bad is America's fault, and more to the point, George Bush's fault. He and the people around him have caused every problem that we face today, everything from mad cow disease to the riots in France and the storms in the Gulf.

The people that surround him are all crooks -Libby, Cheney, Delay, Rove and Rumsfeld are just a few that are planning, along with Bush, to destroy this country and steal it blind. Big Oil -OOOOOO Big Oil - -

But wait a minute, something is a-miss with the facts, the economy is growing faster that anyone had thought it would, especially after the two hurricanes, 3.8 %; unemployment is at a two year low; the war is going well in all areas with elections and employment and construction at all time highs; universities and secondary schools employing more students now than ever before. Their is even a Christian church that started receiving members with guarantees from the government that their religion will be honored.

All this means nothing to the liberal left in this town - It's like it never happen or it just one more lie to continue the war so Bush and his friends can get their hands on the immense oil fields that Iraq has. According to some of these citizens, the entire Bush administration has to be brought down. Their contention is, if Libby is bad, then they are all bad.

It's just another Ratherism - Libby wasn't charged with any crime, he lied, maybe, but the left thinks that Libby could have committed a crime, so therefore he is guilty; it's not true but it's right.
