    right on, victoria l

    SAYS VICTORIA--

    So let me get this straight O'Hehir is *so* filled with rage (which Andy pretends there is a "constructive" variant thereof) over the US "torture" of detainees that he openly anounces a violent fantasy to kidnap and essentially kill by leaving-for-dead those responsible. No wonder leftists hate Bush with such obsessive intensity because you see yourself reflected in your shared violent, totalitarian leanings. This is how a leftist becomes so distorted with rage that they betrayal liberalism and rational conduct. Really, Andy, did you think your violent revenge fantasy would impress us?

    p.s. I also love throwing in the racial marker "white-baby naked". You're a hate-filled, self-loating class-act as always Andrew.

    .....You’re right, of course. So true. What a lousy human being Andrew is, that the torture of unconvicted, untried people that aren’t – well, him, fills him with rage. You tell him, Victoria L! That’s not empathy, Andrew, that’s not holding bullies up to the harsh judgment they so richly deserve: that’s you being a self-loathing class–act.
