Dick Durbin: Time to Choose Sides (Where the bear does his business in the buckwheat)
The National Ledger [Apache Junction AZ] ^ | June 21, 2005 | Doug Hagin

Posted on 06/20/2005 9:51:32 PM PDT by quidnunc

For anyone wanting to read a sunny, upbeat column, I suggest you skip this one. There is a tremendous amount of anger in this one. So if you want happy, do not read this piece. However, if you want to hear the very ugly truth about today’s Democratic Party, and its leadership, please read on. Be warned up front, though, that I am not going to pull any punches here.

I am not going to play word games or temper my rage at recent attacks on our troops by the certain Democrats.

The truth is it is time to choose which side we are all on in this war on terror. It is time to stop excusing those who stab our troops in the back, as Senator Dick Durbin did recently. It is way past time that we all stop excusing the modern day hippy Democrats who rather we would lose the war to terrorists than to see George W. Bush succeed. It is well past time we all open our eyes and see very clearly that the Democratic Party of today is more concerned with regaining political power than supporting our troops.

Now of course the Liberals who read this will be incensed that anyone would dare question their leaders’ motives our designs. Well let them be incensed, that is their problem frankly. If they cannot handle the truth they had better learn to at least listen to it, because make no mistake the time to placate their feeling is over and done!

The Democratic Party has, for decades now, been on a descent into the abyss of anti-Americanism. After 9-11, they woke up and saw, for the most part anyway, the need to be aggressive in fighting terrorism. They actually had a great opportunity to become a true party of the people once again. They had a golden opportunity to reverse years of putting their power in front of the national good.

Are these NOT the words of a seditious man? Are these NOT words that will offer aid and comfort to our enemies? Their number one objective is to falsely paint America as evil and barbaric. Dick Durbin and his despicable rant has done more to further their agenda than anyone can imagine.

Durbin needs to go!

On choosing sides, offering comfort to the enemy, etc, the president said, you're either with us (The USA) or you're against us. Obviously, Durbin, Kennedy, Leahy, Dean, Rangel, Pelosi, et al, and the rest of the Democrat scumbag leadership have chosen sides and they're against US. When their official railings against the USA rises to the level of aiding and abetting the enemy during wartime, it's called treason and should be dealt with accordingly. IMHO.

Hear! Hear!

Absolutely. Subversion and treason in the face of our nation's and Human Civilization's deadliest-ever enemy have become the "Democrats" definitive characteristics.

Coincidental with effective cowardice in the face of the "Democrats" having become that which defines the Republicans'!

Let all of US, therefore, in the face of the mortal danger represented by the one and the abrogation of courage, duty and responsibility that marks the other -- pray as a nation for the wisdom to know and the courage to do what is necessary to succeed.

Dick Durbins words offered both 'aid' and 'comfort' to the Enemy in a time of war.

He doesn't deserve censure, he deserves to be expelled from the Senate.

Durbin deserves to be stripped of U.S. citizenship and thrown out of the country.

Until they do, I am forced to look upon the Democratic Party as nothing but a group of fanatics who are perfectly willing to surrender this nation and subjugate it to the enemy in their pursuit of power.

This is really a bit charitable, since it doesn't address what the DemonRats will do if they regain formal power. It implies that all they're interested in is regaining power and, thus, they might act responsibly after doing so. That's not true. They've become an absolutely determined cabal of criminals and communist traitors. If they regain formal power they'll do their best to destroy this country and all it stands for, as did Carter and the Clintons. The fact is they WANT to surrender this country and subjugate it to the enemy's power; indeed, that's why they're so anxious to regain formal power.

If the people in IL re-elect Durbin, I propose we toss IL out of the U.S. Let Canada have 'em.

Durbin will be re-elected if he chooses to run again and if Dick Daley allows him to.

The Illinois GOP is a sorry excuse for a political party and I doubt that they have anyone electable any more.

don't forget, they ran Alan Keyes in 2004.
