FIRST, foremost and always - a liberal.
And we need to push back!
“This is what we call smart power. Using every possible tool and partner to advance peace and security. Leaving no one on the sidelines. Showing respect even for one's enemies. Trying to understand, in so far as psychologically possible, empathize with their perspective and point of view. Helping to define the problems, determine the solutions. That is what we believe in the 21st century will change — change the prospects for peace.”

June 2000 - David Horowitz on Hillary:"......The intoxicating vision of a social redemption achieved by Them—this is what creates the left, and makes the believers so self-righteous.
And it did so long before Karl Marx. It is the vision of this redemption that continues to inspire and animate them despite the still-fresh ruins of their Communist dreams.
It is this same idea that is found in the Social Gospel which impressed the youthful Hillary Clinton at the United Methodist Church in Park Ridge, Illinois. She later encountered the same idea in the New Left at Yale and in the Venceremos Brigade in Communist Cuba, and in the writings of the New Leftist who introduced her to the "politics of meaning" even after she had become America's First Lady. It is the idea that drives her comrades in the Children's Defense Fund, the National Organization for Women, the Al Sharpton House of Justice and the other progressive causes which for that reason still look to her as a political leader.
For these self-appointed social redeemers, the goal—"social justice"—is not about rectifying particular injustices, which would be practical and modest, and therefore conservative. Their crusade is about rectifying injustice in the very order of things. "Social Justice" for them is about a world reborn, a world in which prejudice and violence are absent, in which everyone is equal and equally advantaged and without fundamentally conflicting desires. It is a world that could only come into being through a re-structuring of human nature and of society itself.
Even though they are too prudent and self-protective to name this future anymore, the post-Communist left still passionately believes it possible. But it is a world that has never existed and never will. Moreover, as the gulags and graveyards of the last century attest, to attempt the impossible is to invite the catastrophic in the world we know."....
I don’t agree with Jeffery, she’s a Marxist. I don’t care if a president is a man, woman, white, black, blue , green, gold, or whatever, as long as they abide by the constitution and the rule of law and are a patriot.
I’m sure Lord would agree (I certainly do).
The low-infomation voter won’t listen though, if you put it so bluntly.
Take a quick listen/look - "Hillary Rodham Clinton Crusader For Women"
bump
I have no problem seeing a woman as POTUS, just not Hitlary, not now and not ever.
She’s a serial liar, a plunderer, a totalitarian…another POS floating up from the D.C. cesspool…a tax, regulate and control collectivist imposing debt-slavery on us and our children, while living the life of an entitled oligarch.
And those are her good points!!

Understanding your enemy is definitely a strategic necessity.
Empathizing with their perspective and point of view is foolish.
Look at the posters that were put out during WW II that demonized the Japanese and Germans. When you are at war the enemy is not sympathetic they are evil incarnate.
When you have an enemy to kill you do not tell yourself how kind they are to their mother.
It is absolutely idiotic how the Left goes out of their way to not speak ill of the Islamic Terrorist that daily kill Christians, Jews and anyone else that does not follow to the letter their version of Islam.
If you are trying to unite your country in an effort to defeat your enemy you must define the enemy in the most stark terms as deserving of death because it is only killing your enemy that ends the war.
Exactly.
That’s why their way always brings with it death and destruction
I wouldn’t mind a woman president. How about Sarah?
Be sure to read the piece.
