This is unfriggin believable. How much more of this traitorous behavior do we have to stand before someone, anyone grows a set and does something about assaults like this against our country and our soldiers?
"This is the positive face of the American people which we would like to show ... so that we are not looked at with animosity but with love..." she said.
What a complete idiot! Oh yeah, NOW the terrorists will no longer want to saw our heads off because of this positive face they're putting on our country... all they/we have to do is continue to be "nice" and bye-bye animus/hello love. Why didn't GWB think of that!
They are aiding and abetting the enemy - so therefore, they are the enemy too. These code pink people belong in jail.
I get really sick of hearing the media describe opponents of U.S. military policy as "peace groups" or "anti-war groups" or "pacifists". Very few of them actually fit those descriptions.
A true pacifist or "peacenik" would oppose ALL military operations and all war activities by any nation or any group using violent means. If someone told me that was their position, I couldn't agree with it but I could at least respect it if they truly believed that all violence is wrong. But if they then started expressing hope that our enemies win, and started calling bloodthirsty terrorists "freedom fighters", I'd dismiss them as pure hypocrites.
That's the problem. Most of these so-called peaceniks are just people who sympathize with the other side. They don't hold some deep philosophical belief that all violence and killing are wrong. They're just using that as a front to undermine our side in a war.
We saw the same thing in Vietnam, where guys like George McGovern would weep and moan about the violence of U.S. military operations and would then praise the murderous Ho Chi Minh as the "George Washington of Vietnam". Joan Baez was at least somewhat consistent but she was the only one. When the Boat People began fleeing Vietnam and the Khmer Rouge began slaughtering the Cambodians, Baez called up Jane Fonda, Abbie Hoffman, Bella Abzug and all the others and suggested they should protest the brutality of those communist regimes. They all hung up on her, basically telling her that violence by enemies of America was justified.
Michael Moore's no pacifist. He just supports the enemy. That's probably true of 99% of the anti-war crowd.
My digust with Bush grows by the day. He lets this crap go on while holding a gun to the head of all those forced to remain in the armed services under stop-loss measures. I don't blame the soldiers wanting to leave the military. This war is hamstrung by political corectness and our leaders continue to throw men into the meat grinder while preventing them from taking the severe measure required to defeat the jihadists.
