Has anyone ever seen liberals get passive during political campaigns?
No, they fight them tooth and nail
Has anyone seen liberals get passive about Affirmative action, perceived police brutality, changing the welfare laws, bilingual ed, etc?
No they flaunt the laws, they riot, and they never give up on their agenda, never, ever.
BUT YET
When it comes to the Middle East, Saddam, Bin Laden, et al, they're "pacifists"
IMO the reason they are pacifists is because they just can't get worked up about the idea of fighting anybody who is against America. Since America is after all a "racist" "sexist", "imperialist", "homophobic", "oppressive," and all the rest, country.
No, its not cowardice, its treachery.
The things liberals believe in they fight for, relentlessly. They don't fight for America, because they don't believe in America
Right up until the fall of the Western Roman Empire in 476, Rome enjoyed every conceivable economic and military advantage, diminished as they were, over the Germanic barbarians. But the barbarians had a supreme confidence in themselves and their culture--and the Romans did not.
Well said.
