I have the feeling that this is all going to backfire on the dems. I really don’t think the American people want to be losers and quitters, nor do they want to abandon millions of innocents to a bloodbath in Iraq and hand a “victory” to the terrorists who want to kill us.

Fascinating Analysis of Leftist Goals, August 13, 2006

Reviewer: N. Sincerity - See all my reviews

A former 1960s radical, Horowitz is well-acquainted with the Leftist mindset. In this book, he strives to explain the modern alliance between left wing progressivists and radical Islamofascists. He argues that this alliance is based on a common desire to destroy Western capitalism. Leftist sympathy with Islamofascist ideas makes no sense from an intellectual point of view, given that countries ruled by radical Islamists are among the most racist, sexist, theocratic states in the world today. However, Leftists have recognized that they can benefit politically from destructive terrorist attacks on the Western world. A West under attack can be made to turn on its leaders in fear and desperation (as they did in Spain after the Madrid train bombings). Only once people reject current government structures can the Left execute its anti-capitalist revolution and build a new reality that mirrors the Leftist view of utopia.

The complete and utter idealogical hypocrisy of the Islamofascist-Leftist alliance is distressing, but as Horowitz reminds us,

Leftists radicals truly believe the ends justify the means.

They are misreading 2006 badly... and I can’t understand why. There was only completely clear “stop war” vs. “continue war” vote: and Lieberman convincingly WON that in his very liberal state.

I think you're right. Hell, I can't figure out how the dems can convince themselves of anything else!

They're right, though, that a lot of elected Republicans will lose their nerve sooner or later. Not many of them have more than one or two (soft and crumbling) vertebra to begin with.

In that case, come election time, expect voters to stay home in droves out of sheer disgust with BOTH sides.
