Islam enjoys a large and influential ally among the non-Muslims: A new generation of "Useful Idiots," that Lenin identified as those who lived in liberal democracies and furthered the work of communism. This new generation of Useful Idiots also lives in liberal democracies but serves the cause of Islamofascismanother virulent form of totalitarian ideology.
Useful Idiots are naïve, foolish, ignorant of facts, unrealistically idealistic, dreamers, willfully in denial or deceptive. They hail from the ranks of the chronically unhappy, the anarchists, the aspiring revolutionaries, the neurotics who are at war with life, the disaffected who are alienated from government, corporations, and just about any and all institutions of society. The Useful Idiot can be a billionaire, a movie star, an academe of renown, a politician, or from any other segment of the population.
Arguably, the most dangerous Useful Idiot is the "Politically Correct." He is the master practitioner of euphemism, hedging, doubletalk, and outright deception.
My tag says it all...

You need to post the attribution for this. You didn't write this...I read this a day or two ago
Thank for the welcome 8^)
Sorry for the re-post, I didnt see the first one.
Nice one, I hadn't seen it before.
Welcome to FR.
>Sorry for the re-post, I didnt see the first one.<
Most of the time, if you do a search on the title of the article, you can find out if it's already been posted to Free Republic. You can then go to the post on FR, and discuss it there.
By the way, welcome.
It boils down to cowardice. The truth is too frightening for some people to face.
"Idiot" implies someone of sub-par intelligence. The traitors in this country are not stupid; they're just treasonous. There are certainly useful idiots at work on the Left, but the anti-war crowd is more of a Fifth Column.
Mine too ;-)
I agree, but Stalin's "Useful Idiots" have morphed into the Mullah's "Useful Infidels"...
Yep!
Great post and welcome. I had some posting issues when I first got on but with the help of all of the FReepers I got it right. That said, this article needs to be articulated by every one of us to friends, family and coworkers. The Carterous (my new term for treasonous) nature of what these libs are doing to our ability to fight and defend ourselves is downright dangerous. We need Abraham Lincoln's approach to these internal vermin.
ping.
DU should chance its name to DUI.
Thanks for the ping, unionblue! Zippy, welcome. The posting sums things up right on the money.
Excellent description!
