a recent Al-Jazeera opinion editorial, Sajjad Khan

Who
said politics was boring, as Mark Warner, the
former governor of Virginia said recently that
politics was not a battle between right and left,
or between conservative and liberal, but between
the past and the future.
Al-Jazeera?
Holy Moses and the Promised Land! It's the struggle
between good and evil, not the past and the
future…
File
that under Is Truth Stranger Than Fiction?
Recently,
a Connecticut newspaper, The Norwich Bulletin,
wrote, "He's (Warner) received so much
attention his potential presidential rivals are
subtly trying to debunk the notion he is a Southern
Democrat. They've nicknamed him Nutmeg Mark - a
reference to his Connecticut roots."
Nutmeg
Mark? Heh-Heh Heh.
Except
for the Internet news sources and the political blog
circuit, nobody knows this Blue Dog has gone barking
mad about fiscal policies in the Commonwealth.
Attack-dog
politics - who me?
After
forwarding another Mollycoddle miscue - a Forward
Together e-mail, Bacon's Rebellion's Jim
Bacon wonkishly wrote that the Blue Dog is the
officially designated and most certifiable
"Warner Watcher" in the Commonwealth and
beyond and to the end of time.
The
Warner Forward Together e-mail stated, "The
Republican candidate, as you remember, spent all the
time trying to scare the voters of Virginia. He
talked about what he was against, not what he was
for."
Jim
Bacon slyly wrote the Blue Dog: "Shame on Jerry
Kilgore for trying to scare voters into believing
that Tim Kaine wanted to raise taxes!"
Oh,
Jim-Boo! That's not the least scary! You need to
check out Mollycoddle's talking head at the Forward
Together blog.
That's
truly bizarre blogflogging fodder! File that under
Your Lips Move, But I Can't Hear What You're Saying.
Mollycoddle
for president is a bone-chilling thought, yes,
indeed, with his Virginia bipartisan miracle
hocus-pocus. It's a downright frightening tax-and-
spend fiscal possibility for 2008.
But
so much for presidential scare tactics, because
Democrat Mark Warner is only a three percent solution,
according to the CNN/Gallup Poll of nationwide
Democratic presidential hopefuls taken in late
December.
However,
Warner's Forward Together PAC has begged and
pandered $4 million from unsuspecting and
overeducated Democrats from around the nation with
his Hello, my name is Mark Warner, and I'm an
unemployed, but self-promoting politician song and
dance.
Mark
Warner also wrote about expanding his
"so-called Southern conservative"
Democratic family with "disaffected Republicans
and independents - the people who are afraid of the
rightward drift of the Republican party in this
country."
As
quick as a dog can lick a dish, I firmly resolve the
Blue Dog gets his drift. Because ex-Governor
Mollycoddle must be referring to the Virginia RINO
machine and its members, senators Chichester,
Norment, Hanger and Potts.
Those
doggone-it, egg-sucking hounds from H-E-double
hockey sticks!
Warner,
a so-called Southern Democrat and the ... err,
presidential alternative to Sen. Hillary Rodham
Clinton, said recently, "Talking about taxes in
Richmond is kind of like talking about Ulysses S.
Grant."
Oh,
Mollycoddle! It’s no wonder you’ve hired
spin-doctor Jerome Armstrong - a member of the Blog
Legion of Super Heroes - to upgrade the art of
presidential Web warfare for you.
The
Club for Growth's Peter Ferrara recently published
an opinion editorial concerning Warner and the
Republicans-in-name-only. Ferrara wrote,
"Virginia's Republican House opposed any tax
increase. But about a dozen overcooked senate
Republicans, including the aging Senate Republican
leadership, insisted they would not pass any budget
- effectively shutting down the state - unless an
even bigger tax increase was passed."
Is
the scenario a possible fright night screenplay for
"The Mark Warner Story" and upcoming
presidential campaign?
Ferrara
concluded, "If Warner or any other Democrat is
elected president in 2008, they will bring this
big-government road show to Washington."
No
doubt, Peter, no doubt - because Warner's miracle
claim is unadulterated bunkum in reality-based
Virginia.
Grrr-Grrr!
Is the Blue Dog's bark is worse than his bite?
Wait
and see, because Mark Warner is my bone of
contention and the focus of the Blue Dog's book, Adventures
in Warnerland. It's nothing more than the Blue
Dog's political contribution to Warner's Forward
Together PAC ... err, I meant to say like a Blue Dog
contribution to Mr. Warner's fire hydrant.
How
'bout dem dogs?
