NH-02: Charlie Bass Is a Moron
Posted by DavidNYCOrdinarily, I don't go in for such silly titles, but there's no other way to describe Charlie Bass right now. He's up with a new ad attacking Paul Hodes that just boggles the mind. The video isn't available yet, but here's the transcript:
Charlie Bass: I’m Charlie Bass and I approve this message.Voice Over: What’s Paul Hodes’ Plan for Iraq?
Paul Hodes: We cannot just abandon Iraq.
Voice over: Now Hodes says we should pull out.
[AP, 9/12/06]
Paul Hodes: We cannot just abandon Iraq.
Voice Over: So which is it?
Paul Hodes: We cannot just abandon Iraq.
Voice Over: Now, Hodes wants to send troops into Kurdistan. Kudistan? Hodes says he’s got a plan for Iraq.
Paul Hodes: Yeah? And I’ve got some oceanfront property in Arizona to sell.
Voice Over: Sorry Paul, we’re not buying it.
Guess what? KURDISTAN IS IN IRAQ!!! Holy moly! Take a look, in case you don't believe me:
Is Charlie Bass projecting? Does he think that Paul, like the lunatic neocons Bass enables, wants to invade Iran? Or maybe Bass thinks Paul wants to send our troops to Kreplachistan? Like I said above, what a total moron.

Even funnier KURDISTAND DOESN'T FREAKIN' EXIST!
The idea that IF the Kurds ever united in a political and millitary way and somehow they weren't obliterated, they MIGHT make a country that looks like this called Kurdistan.
Sad that Bass doesnt know that.

Ordinarily, I don't like to use vulgarities, but this is fucking hilarious - AND pathetic.
You can bet I'll be crossposting this soon.
Yet one more example that the BassMaster is all over the place on Iraq, now so much so he needs a geography lesson.
Excellent catch, David.

Well, Kurdistan does not exist as its own country, of course. But as a term for "the area historically inhabited by Kurds," it definitely exists. Of course, it will almost certainly never be its own country, given that Iran and Turkey would never give up their own territory.

Maybe he's counting on voters not to know it doesn't exist.

New poll: Hodes 10 points behind (46-36), still very low name rec, large MOE (6.2%)
