As Lee Harris has said,
"Civilized people forget how much work it is not to kill one’s neighbors, simply because this work was done by our ancestors so that it could be willed to us as an heirloom. They forget that in time of danger, in the face of the enemy, they must trust and confide in each other, or perish. They forget that to fight an enemy it is necessary to have a leader whom you trust, and how, at such times, this trust is a civic duty and not evidence of one’s credulity. They forget, in short, that there has ever been a category of human experience called the enemy."
From the Preface of Civilization and Its Enemies – The Next Stage of History
That's what the idiots on the Left have forgotten, and their betrayal of the moral and civic duty to stand behind our leaders is beyond treason and treachery - it is the stuff of which mass murder and atriocity is made. They so despise the freedom and prosperity of Western civilization that they are willing to make common cause with its enemies. They are in the final analysis willing to aid and abet those who want us all dead. And in their secret heart of hearts, the Machiavellian, Granscian, totalitarian Left wants people like you and me and our families dead as well. We're in their way, you see.
For that they must - and will - pay.
Both you and Harris really know what you're talking about.
BTTT
I see an outside shot at a silver lining. If the war with islamofascism really ramps up with events beyond 9-11, Americans will sweep the left into the gutter. One way or the other.
In the end, ten million scoped deer rifles just won't be silenced. Push comes to shove, the traitors have nowhere to hide.
