Hence the central axiom of left-liberal foreign policy: The use of American force is always wrong, unless deployed in a region of no strategic significance to the United States.

You know, it's good that he puts it so clearly here. I was arguing with a disruptor the other day who more or less stated it exactly that way. This is the way the lefties think. That poster argued that we should intervene in Liberia precisely because we would get nothing out of it. I found this insane. But this author obviously understands the liberals and their mindset.

Good post.

The truth is that the Left categorizes the human race in a zoological sort of way, meaning that they make "pets" out of certain groups of people. Freed Iraqis are not among the Left's pet groups, whereas people both of and decended from sub-Saharan African tribes are so "favored."

President Bush talks about the "soft bigotry of low expectations" in reference to schools. Perhaps we FReepers should introduce a new phrase into the lexicon: "the soft slavery of Leftist race-think."
