What the Left Really Thinks

Or Actors for Defeat

Today, several thousand anti-war protesters showed their disloyalty to America.  Disloyalty you snort!  I can just hear it, "Why they are just exercising their free speech rights."  Well, so am I and I am stating that you hate your country and want to see it embarrassed and humiliated out of some narcissistic need to pay a penitence "to all the little brown people" that America has oppressed over the years.

Jane Fonda:  "Thank you so much for the courage to stand up to this mean-spirited and vengeful administration."

Machiavelli:  Dear Ms. Fonda, exactly what level of courage does it take to gather at the Mall in the freest nation on earth?  Would that courage be at the same level as that of the Chinese students who protested at Tiananmen Square in 1989?  Just wondering.  

The "vengeful" administration quote has me confused?  Has the FBI arrested you because you oppose the war?  Has Bush used the IRS to harass anti-war protesters?  Did the Capitol police turn the water cannons on you?  Did Dick Cheney take you quail hunting?

Now, I think I know why you said these things.  In the collective mind of the left, the U.S.  is just like China, the Soviet Union, or North Korea.  In your conspiracy clouded mind, you can just imagine George Bush sending in the FBI to take you to a secret torture prison for "daring" to oppose his almighty will.  Never mind this really doesn't happen, but because you think it is true, it is.

12 year old girl:  At the rally, 12-year-old Moriah Arnold stood on her toes to reach the microphone and tell the crowd: "Now we know our leaders either lied to us or hid the truth. Because of our actions, the rest of the world sees us as a bully and a liar."

Machiavelli:  Well, that has me convinced, bring the troops back home.  First, 12 year olds don't have informed political opinions and second, a good mom and dad would be embarrassed by letting their child spew this nonsense.  But, it does reinforce my belief that this is what the left thinks of their country.  It is a "bully and a liar."  The left teaches their children to be disloyal, to be unthinking advocates for national destruction, and to have a warped view of the world.

Sean Penn:  "If they don't stand up and make a resolution as binding as the death toll, we're not going to be behind those politicians."

Machiavelli: I'm thrilled to hear this.  The Democratic Party pandered to the disloyal left and now they have to please them.  Just passing a non-binding measure of disloyalty is not going to please their base.  No, the Democrats are going to have to be completely disloyal  and un-American if they want to keep their majority in Congress.  This pleases me to no end.

Also, do you notice how the left is so concerned about the death toll?  In four years, we've lost 3,000 soldiers.  For those soldiers and families, they have paid a dear price.  But from a nation of 300 million people, that falls short of any great collective sacrifice.  The country losses more people to murder every year, the country losses more people to auto accidents every year, yet the left acts like 3,000 people is bleeding this nation dry.  The problem with the left, they are unwilling to accept any sacrifice for a country that they despise.

Jesse Jackson:  ``We need new priorities and new directions,'' civil rights leader Jesse Jackson said, his speech broken by loud cheers and applause. ``We do not need more troops in Iraq, we need more dollars at home.''

Machiavelli:  More dollars at home for more police on the street?  More money to finance drilling for oil in Alaska and off the coasts of Florida and California?  More money to build more jails to keep criminals away from law-abiding citizens?  More money for building roads?  More money to build a fence to keep illegal and criminal aliens out of our country?  I didn't think so.

How can we as a nation, not come to the conclusion that the left doesn't hate this nation?  They tell us everyday that the U.S. is like China, the Soviet Union, or worse.  When you stop calling for our national defeat, I'll stop calling you disloyal and unpatriotic.   Michelle, LGF, and GatewayPundit all have different takes on today's mass gathering of the unpatriotic.
