He said a victory for Lamont will send a message to the country: "In the Democratic Party, there's no room for strong-on-security Dems." He said that would be disastrous for the Democrats. "You can't win in this country," he said, "unless you assure people" that you aren't going to compromise on national security. He said he has backed the war on terror because he never forgets about the "radical Islamic terrorists who attacked us on 9/11 and want to do it again."
Nice Joe, real nice. You just told every CTer, voting against you, that they forgot 9/11 and don't care about national security.
Good one... for a neocon.
Is that what Joe really is folks? A kiss ass neocon who found that he was in the wrong party all this time?
Well Joe, here's one person's view point on 9/11 and what our current administration did that has earned such high praise.
To begin, It was stupid.
How stupid was it?
It was caveman stupid Joe! It was the tactics of cavemen tossing out the nearest and dearest to tackle the big ol' mastadon when it came looking for what happened to baby!
Oh and by the way, the first person they tossed out was WEARING baby!
No Joe, this was not national security! This was stupid frightened people that screamed save us! save us!
This is not national security Joe! In fact it was WORSE!
Remember the mastadon! Well when they were done with the mastadon, your cavemen buddies went off and tackled the wolf pack two valleys over! Not only did they piss off the wolves they set them on to another tribe!!
What a bright idea! Get the people of other tribes all pissed off at our tribe! Wow, guess we gotta keep tossing out all those tribesmen willing to fight just to keep the other cave men busy while we go about our business!
Hello! Joe! Bad move! You forgot the wolf pack you pissed off in the first place!
Ah! But! I know you're not completely forgetting national security here. I think that you're own mates have been giving the men of the other tribe a bit of a once over.
Better look in on what they've been doing with their time!!
Phone calls, banking records, opinions, ideologies... that sorta thing.
It's purely for national security. Of course...
Good thing cave people disagreeing with you are patient huh? But not all that patient, you see, instead of good strong warriors, they'd like to see the enablers tossed out with the cave elders who've been so busy covering their own butts, that they forgot the real enemy. The one's they attacked themselves...
Get smart Joe. If you win, fine. But for God's sake, don't you dare EVER tell your own party constituents that they do not remember one the defining moments in our country's life.
Bastard.
Oh, and Joe... start working with the rest of your party in getting the CIA and FBI back up to power. We need to get men and women on the ground over 'there'. Clubs and spears are fine for a while, but now, we need brains.
Something you might want to try yourself before insulting people who don't see your way.
You know why?
Because the GOP has seen you weak. And they know that it's going to be seriously hard to get support on your side after this. Now, all they have to do is wait and bide their time.
I guarentee that the next run for your seat, they'll have someone all ready to take it from you.
How many will rise up to help you keep then Joe? Especially after all your political rhetoric that essentially just called them... enablers for the enemy.
Ironic.
