Actor Ron Silver, addressing the Pro-USA and pro-troops rally in Washington DC today and responding to his introduction as a “prominent linberal” said “I think you’ve seen the end of my days as prominent liberal.”

“Peace at what risk? Peace on whose terms? Peace for how long?” he went on. “There are worse things than war. People who think nothing is worth a war is worse.”

The enthusiastic crowd cheered as Silver evoked Elie Wiesel and the lessons learned through the horrors of Nazi Germany, enunciating the reasons for America’s humanitarian intervention in Iraq.

Following Silver, Linda Chavez remarked that she herself was a former liberal, and invited Silver to join the conservative ranks. “We ought to have a support group for ex-liberals,” she said, laughing.
