Views From the Moon

According to Sean Hannity, these "moderate" Democrats simply don't exist. "These 'so-called' moderate and blue-dog Democrats", he's constantly spouting. Hm, I don't know. Perhaps it's all just a part of that overall strategy of his to paint Democrats - ALL DEMOCRATS (not to mention everybody else who disagrees with him) as evil, out of control spenders, people with absolutely no interest in defending the country, etc., etc.....................................................................................Now, granted, maybe from Sean Hannity's rather extreme perspective, all of this DOES make complete/total sense (to him, I'm saying). And, yes, when in fact you DO take to comparing these moderates to Hannity himself, they probably ARE liberal. But, then again, so, too, would Ike, Rocky, Jacob Javits, etc. be liberal. Everything, EVERYTHING, is relative...........................................................................................P.S. And, really, for him to have so cavalierly implied that there isn't any sort of difference between Nancy Pelosi/Barney Frank (on the one hand) and Evan Bayh/Mary Landrieu - that, me-buckos, is just plain stupid. I mean, even when the two groups (the liberals and moderates) vote in unison, there are almost always a lot of negotiations to get there - the moderates, HELLO, moderating the legislation....What is wrong with this guy?
