Meet the Idiot Press, Six Years Ago

From Meet the Press on 11/5/06:

>SEN. ELIZABETH DOLE (R-NC): You know, I think what this shows is that the Iraqis are putting their past behind them, the establishment of the rule of law. I feel that, you know, this, this will mean they’re moving forward.  Certainly, a madman who had, in his focus, the preparation of nuclear weapons, this will, I think, be received as the right thing, and you know, I don’t expect that it’s going to, to have that much effect one way or the other.<

She sure says “you know” a lot – funny coming from someone who (apparently) doesn’t know what she is talking about.

>SEN. DOLE: Let me, let me talk about David Fromme, who is one of the people in the article, and his concern about the way it was publicized, the press release. David Fromme’s bottom line is, the war, just as the same—the same as in 2003, the war was right, we need to win the war and it would be disastrous to lose. That’s his bottom line. That’s, that’s what he’s concerned about. And you know, it’s almost as if the Democrats, you know, it’s like they’re content with losing because to pull out, to withdraw from this war is losing. No question about it. You look at...

MR. RUSSERT: The Democrats are content with losing.

SEN. DOLE: The Democrats appear to be content with losing because
they’re to...<

Well, Mrs. Dole, it was the REPUBLICAN congress and REPUBLICAN president that started and conducted this war, not the Democrats.  So the Democrats were not in charge of “losing” at all – that is something you and your buddies did all by yourself.

>SEN. DOLE: ...because when you pull out, this is losing. That we know that it becomes a breeding ground.....a breeding ground for terrorists. We’ve got Iran and Syria sitting there on each side of Iraq.<

And of course, the current Iraq war, as it is being run, is just a breeding ground for hope, peace, democracy and stability, and certainly not more terrorism.

RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT………

Notice how she went from blaming the Democrats to starting to blame Syria and Iran?  It’s always someone else’s fault with Mrs. Dole and her companions.  Now, if the Bush administration decides to negotiate with the countries of Syria and Iran, then one would suspect that Mrs. Dole’s head would explode - along with all the other idiots who believe that they should blame everyone except the guilty parties for the mess in Iraq THAT THEY CREATED ALL BY THEMSELVES!!!
