Well, The Globe, while being aimed at businessmen and therefore largely financially conservative—at least in its columns and editorials—could also generally be described as a socially progressive paper. And, when it comes to their news reportage, they actually do a quite good job with that whole fair and balanced thing that Fox is big on talking about.

One might suppose that if you want to line things up as with us or against us, those pinkos at the Globe really might seem far-left to O'Reilly's eyes.

Though it's American comics writer Christopher J. Priest, not British author of the best SF novel of the past 10 years Christopher Priest.

Or maybe it's just me who thinks of the later first when he hears that name. Ah, well...

"What better way to get your views dismissed than to lie."

If only that was true. If it was, Shrub and the chickenhawks wouldn't have been able to convince people that Saddam was responsible for 9/11 and that he was an immanent threat.

Moore seems to present his message(s) in the same manner as most wingnuts97yell it as loudly and frequently as you can97and that makes the average liberal uneasy because this method allows one to ignore difficult facts and shout down opposition without listening to both/all sides. Of course, if it worked for them...

Zipity's right, of course. Since the US saved their asses in WWII the French really should just tow the line, forever and always, no matter what is at stake.

Sooner or later some soft-headed lefty will probably bring up Russia's six million plus casualties during WWII and the meat-grinder that was the Russian-front, or that it took the US two years to join the war and that in the end it was only because Japan attacked Pearl Harbor and Germany declared war. But really, it was only the US that had anything to do with Hitler's defeat in WWII. Hollywood wouldn't lie.

And since the US is the only reason we aren't all eating liberty cabbage97er, sauerkraut, I mean97the French shouldn't have any confusion as to who they should bow down to as their God and master.

And those soft-headed lefties who would revise history to suggest that the US wasn't the only reason that France is free today are as bad as the fools who suggest that Gorbachev had more to do with Soviet-Russia's last gasps than Reagan97who they will blasphemously call senile, to top it all off.
