Sean blames John Kerry's inability to deliver a joke about Bush as a slam of our troops. But Kerry didn't make Republicans cut Veteran's benefits.

Sean's list, repeated ad infinitum, was an attempt to brainwash his listeners. Instead, it made them painfully aware that Sean didn't seem to connect the actual failures, many of them deadly, to those responsible.

Nothing turns off a working brain more than being insulted with obvious bullshit. For some brains it might take more time than others for the smell to register, but it seemed to click for enough to make Sean's water-carrying efforts a real detriment to the GOP this past election.

Plainly, the Right wasn't as stupid as Hannity or O'Reilly or Limbaugh thought they were. Not this time.

But the Lords of Loud still haven't learned their lesson.

Sean's newest litany attacks the Democratic control of Congress that has about two months before it has any control, as a failure.

It may pacify the few fans who don't yet realize that Sean only feeds their post-election wounds for the benefit of his humongous financial return. But, as long as he and the rest of the Right's noise machine don't realize their tired tactics are getting very tired, the hole in their logic will be large drive a 2008 Democratic victory truck through.
