Zeev's Turnips Talk Politics (ZTTP)

>>>The MoveOn ad was outrageous.<<<


Was it more outrageous than the right's swiftboat ads trashing war veteran Kerry, or Bush trashing war veteran McCain, or draft dodger Saxby Chambliss (R) calling war veteran Max Cleland an unpatriotic coward for leaving two legs and an arm in Vietnam?

This was an openly far left political ad questioning the role of an active general's place in political policy making. So what was more outrageous? The ad itself or the republican congress, wasting taxpayer's money on the senate floor spending hours grandstanding, debating and actually voting on who's more patriotic........AGAIN. This time they framed it around how best to describe how outrageous the MoveOn ad was and how best to condemn it for maximum effect on the evening news. Nothing else concerning the welfare of the country was more important that day?

While at it......democrats in congress have an 11% approval rating now which is outrageous too. What are those 11% approving of?


"A paltry 11 percent rated Congress positively, beating the previous low of 14 percent in July."
