The betrayal of America
The Augusta Free Press ^ | February 20, 2006 | Max Friedman

Posted on 02/28/2006 3:36:19 PM PST by EveningStar

This column is a rant, not a soft, cuddly piece of fluff opinion. It is going to tell the truth like you have never heard it before. To quote Jack Nicholson from the movie "A Few Good Men" - "You want the truth? You can't handle the truth" - but I'm going to give it to you anyway.

So, as your mother used to do to those of you readers who are old enough to remember, hold your nose and take your medicine, because the doctor is in, and he's operating with a chainsaw.

After 35 years in the news/journalism business, from D.C. to Vietnam, I can honestly say that most of the leading Democratic Party politicians and their far-left support groups are traitors to this country. Besides the few who are deceased or out of office, today's DP is loaded with leaders who have sold out this country to the communists, to the Islamofascists and to their egos. Others are just plain stupid, addle-brained and knee-jerk jerks.

(I'll get to the Republicans in a minute)...

Frankly my dear, I don't give a dang about his grammar or spelling. It was the SUBSTANCE that was the issue, IMO.

And you're entitled to your opinion, my dear. But since he leads off with the "xxxx years in journalism..." as a way of establishing his credibility, he immediately blew it with poor writing. I found the whole article's substance to be questionable, at best.

Excellent! Best rant I have ever had the pleasure to read. There is not one word that I do not agree with!

Hi ES...

Didn't want you to think I missed this. I found it Wednesday and emailed to my activist friends. Friedman made me cry because it was cathartic to have this frustration with our leaders expressed so well and because of grief for my country.

To repeat myself from another post.
We need to throw everyone out and
start our government over. So...
Where is the RESET button?

Yep, Republicans outside the area of war have been leading like submissive children looking for approval from people who hate them on the left and it drives me nuts.

They need to GROW UP and stick to their guns.
