I have a great deal of respect for Dr. Gelernter. He understands terrorism and terrorists first hand, because he has had a front row seat. For those who may not know, he lost both hands to one of the Unabomber's letter bombs.

My best friend is a liberal of the blue collar variety and we were able to discuss and argue politics for years until this one. He drank the ABB Kool-Aid and warned me that we can talk and still be friends but convinced me, by a 30 second rant, that Presidential politics are off the table for this election.

I just hope this mass psychosis is temporary but I'm having my doubts.

I wish he could come up with another term besides progressive which to me means a 1960's mindset dumped on the scrapheap of history.

This is powerful indeed but how could he write such a piece? After all, he is conservative and conservatives are all dumb </sarcasm>.

I have been looking for a true explanation of why the left hate the President and this is definately an article that explains it to me... Somehow I start to feel sorry for those that are so hypnotized by the anarchists that they can't fathom the truth in Liberty's Century and I thank God every day that George W. Bush is in the White House.

"I have a great deal of respect for Dr. Gelernter. He understands terrorism and terrorists first hand, because he has had a front row seat."

Indeed. And for his loss he's received nothing but scorn from the left.

You've got to hand it to him.

The only Vietnamese he ever met was
when he was collaborating with the North Vietnamese in Paris
on the American Communist Party's nickel.

John Kerry's explanation:

But nobody knew it at the time. And those things happen."

Kerry hopes everyone

NEW:
“Without question,
we were held captive longer
because of the anti-war people,
the Kerrys, the Fondas and Haydens,
the names we knew over there -
they encouraged the enemy to hang on.”
Excerpt from “Stolen Honor” website
- Leo Thorsness
Former Vietnam POW

Jane Fonda tells the student audience at the Michigan State University in 1969:

"I would think that if you understood what communism was, you would hope,
you would pray on your knees, that we would someday become communist."

Correction, he lost his right hand, not both hands.

I know because he was my professor.

Definitely one of the best articles I have read that answers the question why I am so passionate about politics.
