It is indeed so very harsh
To make a break for standard
Held in my mind–but how to wash
The soul when it has pandered?

If they must love this war the while
I may not love them then,
Or love as Christ did, with no smile
To simper to those men

As would torment, and scourge, and kill him:
To smile as from a strength
To know the Father will fulfill him
As blood must spill at length.

I love, but as the “Prince of Peace”
I bring a sword to rive them,
For I will not assent to these
Malicious lies that drive them.

Stewart told Carroll that McConnell didn’t know about his Oct. 8th email to the media and GOP cronies until Thursday Oct. 11th — three days after the email and two days CNN’s John Roberts quoted it verbatim on his news show. Are we expected to believe this preposterous statement from Stewart?

If this is true, will Stewart be fired for sending an email from the Minority Leader’s Office without authorization?

I agree with Bridget in #3. We need to send the C-J a point-by-point account of this episode.

Actually, somebody who knows the facts of this still fairly obscure (to Ky. voters) episode should detail the whole thing and put it into the context of the flailing and desperate GOP in an op-ed piece in the C-J and the Herald-Leader.

btw, to help spread this story and not let Mitch off the hook, recommend my diary on this over at dailykos, lets get it on the front page and spread this to the national blogs.

Judging by the comments after the C-J story, your constituents aren’t going to be so forgiving of this. Being such a fan of personal responsibility, maybe your office should issue an apology on the behalf of all your right-wing friends for being such contemptuous assholes. Quit trying to pass the buck. Acknowledge your giant err and lobby your friends in the legislature to do what is right for the American children. Prove to us that you *do* care about post-fetal children.

Best,

Terri
