Make up a fresh batch of purple Kool-Aid...
I think the Bushbots have finished this one! Two LTTE from today's Seattle Times. This.... from a blue state.

Bolding mine

Port foes' chance to mitigate terror misses the boat

Editor, The Times:
I am saddened at the collapse of the Dubai port deal <"Dubai port deal off; Arab firm will sell its U.S. operations," Times page one, March 10>. This was the first time that President Bush's strategy in the war on terror has been rebuffed.
The president has such fine instincts that he seems almost supernaturally inspired. The country has been greatly blessed during his gentle and wise stewardship despite the many who would rain on his parade.
Killing this deal might mark a turning point in the war on terror. Our greatest strength has been our good will, confidence, decency and willingness to sacrifice that others might enjoy a better life. This is what is actually winning in Iraq slowly and inevitably.
Bush wants to befriend and positively engage the Muslim world and make pariahs of the Islamists. He embodies a confident America willing to take risks to pursue a vision of a family of nations. This Dubai vote makes this effort more difficult. It shows us as small, frightened and irrational. There was nothing wrong with this deal. This is a major setback. No wonder Bush is upset.
Maybe a defensive Fortress America can win the war on terror but I think not.
— Peter Kogler, Seattle

Knight blocks retreat

For every crisis in the world, a leader has stepped forward to answer the call. George Bush has been especially equipped with the proper tools of temperament to deal with the situation. Charlemagne, Alexander the Great and Scotland's William Wallace, are examples. George Washington set the moral, stable groundwork for America.
Abraham Lincoln gave us the long-range planning that saved a race of people and made them free.
Franklin Delano Roosevelt gave us hope that there would be food on the table tomorrow. He also was in charge of the greatest war on Earth, yet was personally against war.
Ronald Reagan freed millions of other Europeans. Their nations are our present-day allies in the war on terrorism.
Each was a conquest over great enemies, starvation, and different types of enemies, i.e., Nazism, communism, and now the new war on terrorism.
It took many years to oust Hitler, and many years through the Cold War to end communism. Do you really think the war on terrorism will end swiftly because politically you desire it? Or because you want to crucify Bush with it?
Bush's temperament is the same moral foundation of ending terrorism in the world to make it safer for the future.
— Grace Hofer, Bothell

13. Not just the third one
The first review slams into Harry Potter, "which is suffused with evil,". So this guy lost me at Hello.

7. You know, I'll bet that's the sort of thing Bush's advisors tell him.

8. Any bets on whether or not these are PAID STAFFERS?
The letters are so over the top--they have to be produced in house OR satire. GOOD GRIEF how can anyone be that deluded?

9. EXACTLY what I was thinking - and for these two,
there are dozens of others in papers all over the country. It's no secret they do this sort of thing. Ugh.

11. Did they write these letters longhand, type it or did they
Edited on Mon Mar-13-06 11:46 AM by leeroysphits
open their foul,lying mouths and simply vomit this filthy garbage onto the page? What offensive people.

Dante described the level of hell where liars like these people are consigned to spend eternity.
Anybody care to guess which one?

14. When practical responses fail,
the neocons always resort to witchcraft, voodoo, supernatural supreme being invocations, and the spiritual purity crap.

They still can't get the fact that this nonsense is the last thing the American people want to hear about now.

15. WOW that's creepy!
I'm sure some of you have heard from the shadowy Disciples O' Bushco on C-SPAN's Washington Journal, and they wade into that creepy cult-like spattering that usually begins with "I just want to say that I support PRESIDENT Boooosh one hundred percent...." ...to this day that'll stop my wife and I cold as we're sipping our coffee. Again, wow...
