There is something very strange going on with the Left when Liberals advocate the kind of cheating we associate with villains in action movies. Here we have one of the leading Liberal blogs, The Daily Kos (featured in a recent NY TIMES article on blogging), explicitly advocating deceit for the purpose of sabotaging the other party:
Poll Added – I’m Volunteering For Bush For Last 72 Hours – You Should Too
I like to keep up with the enemy and i am on their mailing list. Got an email asking me to help in the last 72 hours. I am going to sign up to help. We should get as many of us as possible to sign up to help in the last 72 hours. May or may not make a difference, but could really screw up their organizing for GOTV if enough of us do the same thing.
So he wants to “sign up to help” and then try to “screw up their organizing.”
This is what all the villains do when they cheat in competitions in the movies—for example, in that Star Wars movie where the villain threw a wrench into the engine of another racer. Amazingly, the site takes a poll, so that we can document what percentage of Daily Kos readers would like to engage in this sort of thing. The poll actually uses the word “dirty” to describe what they’re talking about.

And, here are the results, as of 9-27-04, with 196 votes counted. 62% do not object to fighting dirty.

Bankrupt, corrupt, abandoning any pretense of trying to win on the merits of their case, i.e. on the merits of their ability to keep America safe: that’s the Liberal position as represented by The Daily Kos. It doesn’t speak well for the Dems.
