Hey Dog wassup? Here's a copy of an email that I sent to the jerk Schumer.

Message sent to the following recipients: Senator Schumer Message text follows: June 24, 2005 [recipient address was inserted here] [recipient name was inserted here], I'll tell you what senator. We'll call for Karl Rove to retract and apologize for his statements the day that the democrats censure Sen. Durbin for his! Sincerely, John J. Miller

Comparing America to the worst dictators in History is ok. Comparing America to Hitler is ok. But now democrats want someone to apologize over this.

ummmm...Durbin did apologize. And Democrats said he was out of line. Karl Rove hasn't apologized, in fact, the White House backed him. Until yesterday, I wasn't aware that I wanted to give therapy to Bin Laden, or to indict victims. My family, which is about as liberal as it gets, was 100% behind Bush for Afghanistan. After 9/11, we were among the other 97% of Americans calling for Bin Laden's death. And we still hope Bin Laden is captured or killed. 9/11 was one of the worst, if not the worst day in American History, and in response, we threw aside politics, for once, and worked together to bring Bin Laden down. Unfortunately, many people now have forgotton that unity that got things done.

just another case of democratic dementia dog, they can say anything they want, but heaven forbid if YOU say something about them.

If you consider Durbin's apology to be for real, then you need to seek counseling. What "democrats" said he was out of line?

Durbin did apologize

No, he did not. If you think that is an appology, then I have a bridger in Brooklyn to sell you!

"If I offended anyone" is not the same as "I was wrong to call them Nazis".

Learn the difference. You might be able to pass an english comprehension test if you do.

Dick Daily Jr. That is all.

This is just something to meant to draw attention away from Dean's incessant oral diarrhea. They think to themselves "Oh, my God, that's 20 times in a week he's made an ass out of himself. We MUST villify a Republican to give the press someone more enjoyable to browbeat!!"

They know the Rove thing will get more play, because Dean is a joke and everyone knows it, but people take Rove seriously; either as an influential part of the Bush team or a serious threat. Dean is a clown, but the press is going to be sympathetic to his party as the 'underdog' at this point.

Rove gives them someone to 'bring down'. Dean is already down.

Durbin was a complete moron and will hopefully not get reelected. His comments were insensitive and wrong.
Dean says stupid shit left and right. People have been all over him demanding he apologize and such.

Rove says something pretty damn dumb.

So, because Democrats do it so much, Republicans can get away with it once or twice? I think if the Republicans are going to demand apologies from Democrats, it should go the other way. Rove managed to lump the entire country left of center together in a very insulting way. I think he deserves to have his stupid remarks rubbed in his face.

The apology demand thing goes both ways, you can't play until the game turns against you then take your ball and go home.

What Rove said was true, what Dean and Durbin said wasn't. That's the difference.

Democrats have focused on blaming SOMEONE here for 9-11 since it happened. We have spent millions investigating and laying blame. Then, we hear that we should have known it would happen because of how we treat the poor Arabs. We should have known because we're all 'little eichman's' and fair game because we take part in a successful capitalist society.

Rove was right. The reaction of the Democratic party was sympathetic to the victims, but totally opportunistic dragging people in front of subcommittees trying to glue a target to someone's, anyone's head.

What Rove said was true, what Dean and Durbin said wasn't. That's the difference.

There is more proof of how liberals try to defend terrorists and blame America, than there is for any accusations they make.

As a Democrat, I was lumped into that group by Rove. A lot of Democrats I know feel like I do regarding 9/11, Afghanistan and the war in Iraq. We were lumped in with the opportunistic ones by Rove. It is people like us he needs to apologize to. It's as fair to say Democrats are Traitors as it is to say Republicans are Jesus Freaks. It may be true for some, it may even be true for some in power, but it is a pretty significant insult to everyone else.

Rove succeeded in insulting more than the idiots like Kennedy, Kerry and Dean. He insulted even those of us who are rational and reasonable in our opinions. Those of us who don't swallow the party line hook and all.

The Party is more than the clowns in D.C. they just happen to be in the spotlight right now.

It doesn't matter how many times Democrats screw up, how many stupid things they say, how many errors they make. That doesn't excuse bad behavior on the other side of the aisle.

That's like me saying "Well, I figured stealing that CD from the corner store was ok, because by comparison other people are shooting people in the streets... What I did is minor by comparison and hardly ever happens, so I should get a pass"

If you're going to get mad when the left insults republicans, don't be surprised, shocked, indignant, self-rightous when when they get mad when you insult them. You think you're right, they think they're right... When stuff like this happens, everyone's just a bunch of assholes.

They go beyond insults. They degrade our soldiers, blame our country for everything they can think of, they provide support to our enemies (just look at al-jazeera and durbins remarks). There is a difference.

When Rove makes a comment like this now everybody gets "offended". This "outrage" is about as fake as the abu ghraib "outrage".

Zoomba: Do you consider yourself a Liberal? What Rove said was:

"liberals saw the savagery of the 9/11 attacks and wanted to prepare indictments and offer therapy and understanding for our attackers."

To me, that is the textbook definition of Liberal in this case. It has more to do with what the word Liberal means in and of itself, I think, than a class of people in the US. You have to admit that the goal of the Liberal in any situation is going to be different than the goal of the Conservative. That's why we have the difference to begin with.

I don't consider you a Liberal, Zoomba. Perhaps you lean toward the Liberal side on some opinions, but Liberals are defined by such for better or worse, and I don't think you allow yourself to be.

As I said on another thread. I will be the first to call for an appology when the left leadership does the same for the statements of Dean, Durbin, Reid, Pelosi, Clinton, Kerry, Kennedy and Byrd.

perhaps it is not "because democrats do it". Perhaps it is because they continue to do it, and do it and do it with impugnity. Lott was busted for less than what Durbin said, and the democrats did not even flick his wrist.
