Ok, its time for “guess who said it”:

“Why, of course, the people don’t want war, why would some poor slob on a farm want to risk his life in a war when the best that he can get out of it is to come back to his farm in one piece. Naturally, the common people don’t want war.

That is understood. But, after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy or a fascist dictatorship or a Parliament or a Communist dictatorship.

I’ve read posts on Romney’s speech on 8 different blogs tonight, and everyone is mostly just pissed off that Hugh Hewitt is bossing them around and telling them how to think.

No one is really addressing the main point that Hugh is full of shit because Mormonism, like cults and unlike actual religions, is completely intolerant of any other religion. It teaches hate, slander, blood libel and damnation for any other creed than Mormonism. It teaches racist, sexist and repressive dogma. And Mormoms are exhorted to follow The Book of Mormon, which contains this stuff, literally.

Hugh Hewitt, lapdog for Mitt Romney, pronounces that prime example of Mormon racist-and-hate-with-a-smile a master politician:

While the original story is old news, it is pertinent and valid information about a writer whom the left holds up as one of its shining stars of wisdom and constitutional law. Well-proven and documented turpitude by this scumbag should be easily referenced by anyone who wishes to find out what kind of person Greenwald is.

I’ve posted on the article many times, as have 20+ other members as far as I’ve gone back in the history. 2-3 leftists admins continue to remove the information using the flimsy argument that “consensus” has spoken. The sheer number of dissenters show this is not true.

Roger Simon links to an article about Muslim on gay violence in the “liberal” democratic socialist countries of Europe.

Bruce Bawer’s First They Came for the Gays is one of the best articles we have ever run on Pajamas Media. Do not miss it, if you haven’t already seen. I am deeply proud to have published it.

I’m pretty sick of the subject of Bobby Calvan and his asshattery. His editor takes the ill-advised position that it was all a construct of the rabid right wing blogs and Mr. Calvan is totally innocent of anything other than being a macho man in a pissing contest with a soldier.

The original post and that caused all the fuss is here: Bobby Caina Calvan: the original post and comments.

Michelle Malkin wraps it up pretty well. I don’t really have anything to add, everyone is linking to our blog so we felt compelled to comment somehow. I wish to hear Calvan’s name no more forever.

Mormon Racism as doctrine, not merely folklore or tradition

“Well meaning ape” “Original Gorilla” “A first-rate, second-rate man”= all quotes about Lincoln during the Civil War, by members of his cabinet, by the General in charge of all the Armies, by leading members of his party at the time. His mental capacity was characterized as “painful imbecility” by Sect. of the Treasury Salmon P. Chase.

Lefties, even in the face of more and more good news out of Iraq, are still posting their claims accusing President Bush of “bumbling” the war effort (sorry, no link for anti-American jeramiads).

Bill is going to bat for Hillary, and using his old technique of the brazen, shameless lie. Tell a huge lie, go on the offensive, change the narrative, win the news cycle. It old-school Clinton. But he just doesn’t seem to pull it off anymore:

I enjoy 99.9% of what Patterico writes, but I am getting a lot of mileage from one of his posts.

I just read the Harvard Finds Leftward Media Tilt poll and everyone has covered the “man bites dog” aspect of it.

However, I was struck by one short factoid in particular.

Ok, here are two blockquotes. There is a paradox that the two combine to highlight. See if you can spot this cognitive dissidence:
