Default Pointing out the stupidity of the left and the right

Now, everyone knows that when we heard he was killed, and the liberals went out and said how its not a big deal, and it really doesn't mean anything, and that everything bad is still going on.

Now, I think thats a bit looney and they've gone too far, I mean c'mon, its kinda a big deal and must be good.

BUT, notice how the conservatives immediately came out and attacked the liberals for typically saying that his death was no big deal.

Well, I noticed something while reading the National review...

http://www.nationalreview.com/

I quote for article headlines in a row....

Quote:
THE EDITORS: Zarqawi’s death is particularly welcome because it comes at such a distressing time in Iraq. “An Opening” 06/09 5:42 AM

RICH LOWRY: Killing Zarqawi is the equivalent of averting a Haditha every other day in Iraq, indefinitely. “The Stakes” 06/09 5:55 AM

W. THOMAS SMITH JR.: It would be underestimating the impact of Zarqawi’s death to say it is a major blow to al Qaeda in Iraq. “The Black Prince Is Dead” 06/09 5:55 AM

MICHAEL LEDEEN: We have probably just lived through the greatest global counterterrorist operation in history. “Iran Connects the Dots” 06/09 9:21 AM
All four in a row, progressively praising it more and more.

This is an example of how screwed up both sides are. While the right attacks the left and making no big deal of his death, they go ahead and make too big a deal of his death, which they would all counter with their rendition being the proper one.

So both sides are screwy. One lambashes everything for being no big deal, while the other makes a big deal out of everything.
