How do you know the left has completely and totally lost the plot? Well, one way is to read the remarkable spin going on regarding Bush's trip to Iraq. First, one dimwit from Counterpunch couldn't figure out the whole time change thing and ended up arguing that Bush had forced the soldiers to be awoken at dawn to have dinner. How complicated could it be to see that if you are watching the president in the US in the A.M, it's P.M in Baghdad. But Bush is the stooooopid one, of course.

Then, Instapundit picks up a story from the Washington Post that says that Bush never actually served the turkey, that 'Bush picked up a decoration, not a serving plate'. Oh but lookey here and here. That seems to be turkey the president is serving. Shocking, that.

I'm feeling better about the 2004 election these days. I still think its going to be tight (yes, that's right Doug, I don't think Bush is taking New York) but liberals have just driven over the cliff and don't even realize it. My favorite liberal argument (well, second favorite to 'you're racist!') is 'don't you seeeeeeeeee?' They seem to have decided that that is the one that works best for them (though, again, I do miss being called racist when I said I wasn't a fan of homeless people peeing on my building or when I say that minorities are just as good as white people and shouldn't get preferential treatment) and they will continue to wail 'don't you seeeeee, he made the military get up at dawn to have dinner, he's evil' or 'don't you seeeeee, nobody ate any turkey, it was all a sham' up until November 2004. And this brings me great happiness.

Instapundit has a lot more on the turkey lunacy.
