Why does the left oppose war on Iraq?

It's really simple.

The left isn't right about anything.

John Miller published excerpts in the NYPost today from his interview with OBL in which the terrorist raghead basically says the Somalia debacle engineered by the Klintoon administration gave them the idea that the USA runs from a fight.

OBL is an idiot.

The USA only runs from a fight when a Democrat is in the White House.

Real Americans have no time for these traitors. They are in a tiny minority anyways, and we should really laugh at their pathetic attempts to justify their support of bin Laden and the Taliban.

Real Americans are ready to sacrifice their lives for their country. The Left are cowards. President Bush is no coward.

I love the fact that this guy never regarded the Soviet Union, with 10,000 H-bombs aimed at him, as his enemy.

What the left needs to cultivate is an intelligent synthesis, one that recognizes that the United States has a role to play in the world while also warning of the dangers of an imperial foreign policy.

This sentence makes sense for the left, the right and the in-between.

I never saw the Soviets, the Cubans, the Sandinistas, the ANC or the PLO as enemies.

Was this guy born with his head up his ass or was it put there by a professor at a liberal college? No matter, this baseless diatribe, like the leftists he describes , has no point and no end. Oh, perhaps to bash Hitchens, and to point out "Imperialism" which he never decries as a false perjoritive of the left, but only to bask in it's many hues. He is the type to labor slavishly for Mugabe, then be killed and eaten by the ravinous monster he helped create.

Democrats must be stopped.

They WILL DESTROY THIS NATION.

The ceaseless lying, arrogance, perversion, and corruption they encourage are eating away at the moral fiber of this country like a cancer.

Always EXPOSE DEMOCRATS AS SOCIALISTS!.

Never miss an oppurtunity to ask a Democrat if he is a card carying socialist.

Always refer to democraps as "leftists", and inquire why their parties symbol is a jackass.

If a Democrap is being rude and obnoxious to you, BE RUDER AND MORE OBNOXIOUS back.

Always hate Dumbocrats.Democrats are STUPID. Democrats are EVIL. EXPOSE THE LEFT. DON"T LET THEM HIDE!

But the left isn't going to do that. If they did American troops would be propping up Castro and whoever it is that runs China.

Dear Joe,

You state "Did you notice, for example, that he never mentions the horrible treatment of women by radical Muslims such as the Taliban?"

In fairness the article does state ... many feminists were decrying the Taliban long before President Bush discovered what a burqa was.."

On some days, I'm sympathetic to Noam Chomsky's critique of the war on terrorism as an arrogant war of empire. On other days, I remember the view from Flatbush Avenue on September 11, and I'm gripped by the sense that anti-imperialism is a woefully incomplete guide to today's situation.

Some days I'm a leftist, and other days I see three thousand dead
AND I'M STILL A LEFTIST!

Dork!
