Most of the RATS and RINOS are spineless, notable exceptions are Lieberman and Zell Miller who are "conservative." The lefties are pro-terrorist, anti-military and anti-US. They will not elect somebody who "is messing up the world and advancing imperialism, oil stealing and just outright "insensitive to other cultures". All code names for defeatism. Look at John Kerry, who advocated Iraqi regime change because of WMDs, as did the Clinton administration, he now attacks the military at every chance and talks about our troops "terrorizing" women and children at night! Did he mention anything about the real terrorists? Sounds like poor O.J. Simpson who still can't find the real killers!
Do they really think that most of the American public even knows enough to be aware of what they're doing? Or, is it just the media messing up the works and stirring up the uneducated that they're afraid of?
These two are intertwined. The MSM and the foreign MSM, such as the BBC, will put any of what I suggested as the epitome of "terrorism", imperialism and arrogance. Unfortunately, a large segment of the American public buys into or "want" to believe this communism and all what they see in front of them is the "criminal" action of a stand-up US president and/or government.
Case in point, last election result is touted by the MSM as: Americans wanted a change of course in Iraq. They even dared to say, which isn't true, that the public wanted immediate withdrawal out of Iraq!!
Why does a RINO like Chuck Hagel act like Chuck Schumer is beyond me. Maybe he wants to be loved by the media.
To many people in the new Out-House or Senate, US interests and security comes tenth, that if it meant something to any of them.
Just my opinion.
"melancholy", if you have any free time at all please go and read what "Mia T" has posted about the link between the Clintons and the Foley matter. This is part of the reason why we lost Rick Santorum!!
