Print the legend

I see Teresita is printing the legend about the Kyoto treaty — a document that has spun much Fantasy writing all on its own (the poor counties were paid to sign up — and won a trip to Bali to boot!).

Perhaps this was John Edwards way of saying he did not want to be VP. By 20 naughty 12 it will be spun as John taking responsibility for his children.

I told my Democrat friends in 2004 that many in their party (especially the media branch) loathed GWB (a Texas conservative and Republican and Born Again Christian) and did not want to give him any credit for improving US security. So they portrayed the round-up of suspected AQ sympathizers after 9-ll as “fascism on the march” rather than needed measures to stop further attacks — but only after there were no new attacks. the lack of attack was do, apparently, to AQ’s basic humanity.

The unintended consequence (liberals are always producing unintended consequences): The Democratic Party as a whole seemed to take the threat of terrorism lightly.
