One of Hanson's better pieces. He's on a real rant here. Really nails the left.

VDH really, really nails it here. Somewhat long, but very worthwhile.

I can't wait to see the response to this, from the Lefties on another forum I'm on.

You may not feel that you are, but your words are precise and true. Your heart is gold. Thanks

Thanks, glad you agree. There is much more to be said about good and evil, God and Satan, Jesus and Mohammad, and the nature of man, but I was afraid that it would be discounted as proselytizing.

Wow. Brilliant. A standing O to VDH.

I must confess to going a little wobbly on Iraq now and then. I am going to print this out and read it the next time.

As usual, good stuff from VDH.

I think I see one weak spot, though. If challenged over this line...

"He harbored a deep-seated contempt for Western values, even though he was eaten within by uncontrolled envy..."

...how would VDH back up his claim that Bin Laden was eaten up by uncontrolled envy? Has Bin Laden expressed envy for the West in any of his speeches?
