This is How Liberals Think

The liberals at Online Journal Editors post, "Is Kerry the Democrats’ sacrificial lamb?", is proof positive of the twisted minds of these people that like to call themselves 'pacificists'.

Pacifists really scare me. They also call themselves 'progressives'. Now that's an interesting word isn't it? Progressive to what? Their vision of dealing with terrorists is sitting down at a table and making a deal. Let's make a deal - we will do what you, Mr. Terrorist, want us to do and you won't cut off our heads, right?

And dontcha just love the words they have for conservatives? A neoconservative: “The neocons and hard-liners have long felt that no Soviet leader could be trusted” (New York Times)

Uh, YA!!

jingoist - an extreme bellicose nationalist, chauvinist, flag-waving, hundred-percenter, jingo; one who loves and defends his or her country; devotion to the interests or culture of a particular nation including promoting the interests of one country over those of others.

To this I say - RIGHT ON! You have defined, although it is difficult for you to say it without a sneer on your face while doing so, the typical patriototic American citizen that is now finally finding their voice and standing up to you liberal 'let's-all-get-along-and-sing-kumbaya' panty-waists and saying "ENOUGH ALREADY!!"

Am I proud to be a flag-waver? ... you bet I am. Your disdain for those of us that would support our president and our country is wearing thin.

But I digress. This is the opinion piece of the editors over at Online Journal. The emphasized wording is mine, everything else is theirs. Usually I don't print entire articles, but this is so important I am going to ignore my own rule today. YOU NEED TO READ THIS.

If John Kerry truly wants to be president, then he has got to stop the nonsense and start pounding away on George W. Bush’s record of failures and that is assuming the computerized voting devices haven’t already been rigged for Bush.

Kerry just wasted two days on the non-issue of assault weapons and probably lost thousands of votes in the process. Guns in the hands of citizens may be a bug-a-boo with a fraction of liberals, who foolishly think getting rid of guns will make crime vanish, and certain of our friends abroad. We suspect, though, that the anti-gun lobby was something dreamt up in the bowels of a right-wing think tank and foisted on unsuspecting liberal do-gooders. After all, one of the first things Hitler did was remove the citizens’ guns.

To those who say small arms are useless against military firepower, what is currently going on in Iraq belies that argument. Old Saddam, knowing what was going to happen in the wake of the illegal US invasion of his country, was wily enough to arm the Iraqi people before he was overthrown.

**My note: are these kooks rooting for the terrorists????

At every step, thus far, Kerry has allowed the Bushies to frame the debate and, thusly, make him look weak, indecisive and deceitful, while portraying the liar-in-chief, who skipped out on his National Guard commitment, stole the presidency, wrecked the economy, initiated two illegal wars, trampled on the Bill of Rights, tore up treaties, spit in our allies’ faces, and is destroying the environment, as some kind of strong, decisive leader—a hero, if you will

Kerry has allowed his service in Vietnam to be smeared by the Bushies, while turning a blind eye to the truth about Bush’s. He has allowed the Bushies to turn his ability to think and reason into a liability: flip-flopper, while ignoring Bush’s egregious flip-flops

John Kerry has had his eye on the presidency for a long time. Surely he didn’t think that going up against George W., Dick Cheney, Karl Rove, Karen Hughes and their Soprano neocons was going to be a civilized thing. Actually, the Sopranos fight fairer.

Karl Rove may not be a household name among those Americans who get their “news” from the corporate media. But for those of you thought Poppy Bush’s boy, the late Lee Atwater, who destroyed Michael Dukakis was evil, his protégé, Rove, is beyond evil.

Now, unless Kerry is just raw meat for what may be our last presidential election and is meant to lose, someone has to get through to him: John Kerry, you can and must do better. Everything you need to win has been handed to you on a platter by Bush. Use it!

So there you have it. The Kerry campaign is sinking so blame the Republicans. Typical of the liberal frame of mind, if anything goes wrong it is NEVER their fault. Demonize the opponent but when they try to defend the attacks, paint them as the evil ones.

I used to think that liberals were just people with opinions that are opposite mine. Not any more. These extremists have shown themselves for what they are and if that doesn't scare you, you aren't paying attention.
