Frank Rich just comes right out and calls Bush/NeoCons "Crazies"
Edited on Sun Jul-23-06 09:23 PM by cryingshame
In his article today. I've got issues with Rich but was struck by his use of the term 'crazies'.

really, at this point, it seems pretty tame. Crazies is the least of the words that come to mind when contemplating what they are doing.

Does anyone here have an issue with using the term 'Crazies'?

3. If Frank Rich writes a ten-volume opus on pie crust, I'll buy the first

copy.

The column he wrote in today's NYTimes was extremely forceful.

The man speaks true and strong against a corrupt and vacuous administration.

4. that's what they were known as within the government
career service people in the State Dept. used the word "the crazies" to refer to the Cheney gang.

I think I heard that on the Frontline thing about Cheney.

5. It's ttrue. Hell, they've been called the "crazies" for quite some time.
I have no issue with the truth of the matter, whatsoever. In a civil, democratic society,...they are "the crazies".
