The Harmonious Lie
From today's WorldNetDaily:
A man arrested as a terror suspect for allegedly trying to transport $340,000 from a group tied to Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi, and who reputedly had connections to Osama bin Laden, helped write the "Religious Expression in Public Schools" guidelines issued by President Clinton during his tenure in office.
And that could explain why students at a California school were told as part of their required classes they would become Muslims and pray to Allah – and a federal judge [Phyllis Hamilton] approved that, and why an Oregon school this year is delivering similar lessons to its students...
Think about this for a minute. True, Clinton appointed Traitor Hamilton to office. But she's still in office, despite committing many specific acts of sabotage. At the time when Clinton appointed her, we were not at war. Now we are, and she's still allowed to ruin our war effort.

I've been hitting this point from various angles; finally found a concise way to state the central problem.
Both teams in our political "debate" have agreed to use the same false view of reality for their own purposes.
This is exceedingly strange. Normally, opposing teams use opposing distortions.
The false view of reality comes in many variations. Using the 'D' team's phrasing: Bush is a cowboy, Bush is a unilateralist, Bush tramples on civil liberties, Bush is a warmonger, Bush would rather drill for oil than educate the children, Bush hates immigrants, and on and on.
The 'D' team considers these things to be bad, and the 'R' team considers them to be good.
Most of them would in fact be good in wartime. We desperately need a President who uses his power unilaterally, ignores the UN, forces land to be used for drilling, tramples on the civil liberties of traitors and saboteurs, controls the nation's borders, and makes war fiercely and unwaveringly until the enemy is defeated.
We don't have such a President. In each of those categories, Bush is basically carrying on the Clinton policy.
We won't stand a chance of getting the President we need until the 'R' side comes to terms with reality. ¶ 9:36 AM
