It started with the reports from the March 17th protest in D.C.  Then, I saw some rather disturbing pictures from a completely different event on LGF:

Suddenly (and not surprisingly), the effort to smear everyone who is against the Iraq war as a f…

To Benjamin: What is Sunsara loony about? To paraphrase: let me count the ways…

1) Accusations of widespread torture with no evidence and not a single documented example. When pressed by O’Reilly all she could offer was an ongoing lawsuit that has not been settled yet. This is not a “fact” supporting her accusation of torture.

2) Claiming the CIA is running Quitmo. The facts contradict her clearly.

3) Her claim the war is illegal when in fact nothing supports her accusation. Even the U.N. refuses to call it such. She refers to it as an “illegal war by Nuremburg standards.” She has no clue whatsoever of the Nuremburg war trials. Can you say “non sequitur” boys and girls? I knew ya could. Also this accusation enters the realm of the dreaded “red herring.”

4) Her claims that lies were told to get the war started. For example, she conveniently ignores the fact that every single major intelligent source the world over was convinced Saddam had WMD’s. Secondly she refuses to acknowledge that the Clinton administration also believed Saddam had WMDs. Hillary Clinton is ON RECORD stating she believed it also. It was the best information at the time. Why wasn’t it better? Well the Clinton administration made the CIA, NSA and every other agency that had ‘em remove all human infiltrations (that took DECADES to establish) in terrorist organizations worldwide. Notice that just over a minute into the interview, O’Reilly confronts her with this little tidbit and she ducks it. Dishonest on her part.

5) Her claim that 600,000 Iraqi civilians have lost their lives in the war when no legitimate organization supports that figure. Even the U.N.’s estimate is more than 1/10th less her claim. Her “source” (the Lancet Study) for the 600,000 figure has already been thoroughly debunked. The Lancet Study’s methodology have been shown to be questionably at best and fraudulent at worst. But loons like Sunsara keep on quoting it as if by doing so it will suddenly become true. It won’t.

6) She falsely accused the allied forces as being “colonial occupation.”

7) Claiming Donald Rumsfeld’s “handwriting was on the walls of Abu Graab” when there is absolutely no evidence to support such an accusation.

I could go on and on Benjamin but Sunsara lost the debate within the first 2 minutes and O’Reilly allowed her to twist in the wind for the remainder. She went into this interview unarmed intellectually and got hammered. This is why she qualifies as a “loon”, a “moonbat”, a “nut job”, etc. She has no credibility but her hatred of her country and her government overtakes whatever intelligence she once had. If such raving lunatics manage to control the government, the United States will be doomed.

Bill actually went easy on her. You can tell he wanted to rip her throat out, metaphorically speaking, but, looks like he said “wow, I have one of the real wacko’s here, I’ll just let her dig her own grave.”

But I digress…

I suggest using that segment in a montage entitled “Moonbats On Parade” to remind folks with common sense just how many wacky people there are out there who go off the emotional deep end with little to no factual support. A reality flotation device would do wonders in their lives but while they continue to flounder in the seas of common sense they continue to refuse offers of rescue by the sane world.

A short recon of what’s out there that might draw your attention….
