Advertisements [?]
Blitzkrieg talking to Begala and the utterly worthless and quite possibly rock stupid JC Watts about the apparently divided Dems message re Iraq. Begala says something moderately sensible about how most Dems are closer to Kerry in the need to get out, but that most of the public is closer to Hillary in not quite getting to the timetable state. (yes, I know...but wait for the point)...so Begala says that there is nothing wrong with a difference of opinion - it is healthy to have a debate, and that we would not be in the war if even a few pugs would have had the balls to stand up and not go lock step with the misleader.

Then - punchline - Watts says that if that would have happened, Saddam would still be in power killing people, and that Zarqawi would still be in Iraq killing people, etc etc....and Begala just sat there and let it go! The whole issue played out right there - the right lies out their ass and the left just smiles and doesn't challenge - and the media closes down the discussion and gives the appearance that the lies are the truth.

And this is played out hundreds of times each day all over the TV and in the news and on the radio. Mass brainwashing!
