Brad is having a heart ache over the left's cheating heart.
Brad De Long Sunday Aug. 23,98 Why does my heart sink at the thought of the left thinking that the way to start a crusade to add flesh to the dry bones of international law by taking up the cause of bin Laden, the Taliban, the Iraqi dictatorship, and the Sudanese government?"
Doyle The United States unilaterally, as it's client state Israel has modelled for decades, attacks outside the national boundaries of the U.S sans a declaration of war, besides the newspaper headlines. The target is an amorphous guerrilla group. Let us see, Great Britain couldn't crush the IRA which isn't really all that big. How we gonna crush Bin Laden? And when that goes on for some years with no win, and suddenly another group pops up, and then ten or twenty here there and everywhere? Ain't it sort of something the ultra right can figure out is stupid policy? I bet you a dime the righties, and ultra righties, and the fascist righties, and trogladite righties, and Lyndon LaRouche righties, and the air force righties, have all thought the same damn thing. It ain't worth a goddamn tinkers damn.
Doyle What has the left got to do with all these folks (Bin Laden, Sudan, Taliban, etc.) besides the sensible attitude why are we being the world's police? If that gives you a heart pain, I suppose it is because love is like that. You love someone, and they disappoint you. It is just the damn nature of loving someone. Sometimes. But then the left is worth it. Stick in there, get some counselling. Send some flowers over to your favorite lefties. Give peace a chance. regards, Doyle Saylor
