Only Democrats are Smart and Moral. They say so.

My own conspiracy theory is that the Washington Post has withheld every intelligent comment by a Democrat from its paper recently and only allowed the lumpen of the Democratic Party to comment there. Here's a selection of the many,perhaps hundreds, up at this moment, more coming in as we write:

I can't digest Sarah Palin. Not for her parenting, not for her teen daughter getting pregnant (why should anyone care?)but for lack of moral values.

She brings out a child that she knew has down syndrome before birth. That boy IS GOING TO SUFFER HIS ENTIRE LIFE AS A RETARD. WHAT KIND OF MOTHER WOULD DO THAT? and she is pro-life to the extent that she opposes obortion even in the case of RAPE AND INCEST.

The Palins are just too conservative and have UNETHICAL MORAL VALUES. and She wants to be a Vice-President?? THE MEDIA SHOULD RECOGNIZE AND RAISE THIS POINT.

Glad she had the retarded kid. I'll bet if her son was gay she would have aborted.

Stupid housewife... typical white woman...

This woman Palin is a very sick, sick, sick person. Having a daughter sleeping around - we know where she got her genes from. Sick woman ! OBAMA 08 !

McCain doesn't use his brain for serious decisions. This is not bad since he doesn't have much of a brain. He is an impulsive stubborn character who puts his own interest first. That is why he dumped his first wife and netted a wealthy trophy wife.

A guy like McCain could easily create more troubles than Bush. We are the ones who should use our brains for our decisions... in November.

You all think this pregnancy thing is a big deal just wait until Palin's nude modeling photos get released on the internet. ;)

Bristol Palin's pregnancy IS the issue, because I strongly suspect it's a red herring. I think the "news" is being floated to make it appear impossible that the baby allegedly born to Sarah was in fact her daughter's, as has been suggested elsewhere. They are admitting to a "lesser offense," thereby avoiding charges of cover-up and statutory rape. I would wager that Bristol will not go to full term, because that would concretely establish the time line of the pregnancy - in other words, I doubt very much that she is as much as 5 months pregnant.

That should give us all a good idea of what the Democrats are all about. If not, there are hundreds of similar comments at the Washington Post at the link, damned near every one of them along the lines as above. Julien Benda wrote about our intelligentsia close to 100 years ago, and nothing has changed; it's not even worse. There's just more access to the public eye for them now:

Julien Benda, Treason of the Intellectuals.

Anarchist Sand-bagging

By chance, I just finished rereading Georges Sorel, Reflections on Violence. "Georges Sorel's Reflections on Violence (1908) remains a controversial text to this day. It unashamedly advocates the use of violence as a means of putting an end to the corrupt politics of bourgeois democracy and of bringing down capitalism. It is both dangerous and fascinating, of enduring importance and interest to all those concerned about the nature of modern politics." So we read at Amazon.com. Below we read a comment from an "anarchist" supporter. Today a gang of anarchists dropped bags of cement from an over-pass on busses heading to the Republican Convention:

Anarchism is a peace movement. We are expressing outrage at your violent republican agenda. You don't want violence? Then don't advocate it at home and in Iraq you republican idiots. What is a sand bag against flanks of cops with guns and pepper spray and night sticks or against the violence which we are protesting? The near 100,000 documented civilian deaths in Iraq and the un-documentable thousands of civilian deaths in Afghanistan? For what? Your dirty oil money. Modern republican philosophy which driven by Ayn Randian right wing libertarianism, by the way,is a violent terrible form of idiotic self destructive anarchism.

WELCOME TO MINNESOTA!

Anarchists in St. Paul attacked RNC busses today in route to the Excel Center.
The anarchists and Leftists knew when the busses would be heading to the convention and were waiting for them.
They nearly killed us!

The anarchists and antiwar nuts were protesting on top of the interstate overpasses earlier in the day.

Later when the GOP busses started to take delegates from Minneapolis to St. Paul the anarchists started throwing sandbags and cement bags at the busses.
Unreal.

The bus I was riding was hit with cement bags that the anarchists were throwing off the overpasses down on the interstate. The anarchists missed the bus in front of us and nailed our bus with a direct hit.

The police had us slow down and then sent us under the interstate overpass when we were attacked.
There were several women and senior citizens on the bus.

More at Gateway Pundit.

A little later, a busload of Cub Scouts were en route to the convention, where they were to present the colors to open the convention. A group of protesters--liberals, Obama supporters, or whatever--blocked the road, surrounded the bus, and attacked it, rocking the bus back and forth, denting and scratching the sides, and generally terrifying the children trapped inside. The left-wing protesters attacked a number of buses in the same way, but there is something especially despicable about attacking a group of Cub Scouts.

Cub Scouts. They would be boys from six to ten or so. I was a cub scout. I passed on the dropping sandbags on busses. Go figure. No, Sarah Palin wasn't my mother, I just kind of figured it out on my own.

"Cub Scouting is for boys in the first through fifth grades. The programs offer boys participation in family-centered activities, community service, and camping. Boys belong to a den, usually a group of six to eight boys. The dens form a pack that meets monthly."

http://encarta.msn.com/encyclopedia_761560564/boy_scouts.html

I can see that many people wouldn't have a clue about being a cub scout. I am dismayed and disgusted by commentators who assume that "anarchists" are "right-wing." Show me the Conservative here:

Mikhail Bakunin
Peter Kropotikin
Alexander Nechaev
Pierre Prudhon
Georges Sorel
And let's not forget everybodies' favorites:
The Narodniki

One might wonder why I seem to know far more about anarchism than does the average anarchist. Maybe it shows in that when I sand-bag people I don't use sand-bags. If you look at the names above you might get a sense of why the Leftards are freaking out about Sarah Palin. Compare her to Bernadine Dohrn and Bill Ayers, friends of Osama Barka.
