This is an exceptionally insightful argument. It can be confirmed by anyone who has challenged these new demonstrators to support their mantras such as "No blood for Oil" with facts. To a moron, they cannot.

Echoes of Appeasment

Protesting against their birth right, while still enjoying its benefits, is a great way for cowards to make themselves feel heroic.

It IS self loathing and it IS suicidal.

"The facts, nonetheless, are the facts: America was attacked. If America does not take preemptive measures to thwart future attacks, it will be attacked again. These are the facts. And they are ugly" summed it up best.

[Mr. K]

this guy gets it right- America was attacked. We need to respond in such a manner that they will think twice before doing it again.

Everything this author says about leftists nails it. They are an industry, it is their religion, they cannot think rationally about the situation, they hate America.

They will be shown to have been wrong, although they will never admit it.

Colleges and universities have become, for all practical purposes, radical factories, that, year after year, turn out thousands of left-minded young people, who, like missionaries, enter into the American mainstream.

Who promptly grow up and leave their juvenile perspective behind. How many people at FR would have considered themseleves liberal in college? The trend only works in one direction: there's probably no one at DU who was formerly a conservative.

Personal perspective: I remember lecturing my boss at my part-time job while working my way through college early in 1980 about the evils of Reagan. In fact, I may have even uttered those immortal words 'may have to leave the country if he's elected'.

Fours years later, after working late in downtown LA, I'm at the Century Plaza hotel in my suit, holding a Heinenken, with a pretty girl on my arm, chanting "Four more years", as Ronnie gets up on stage to thank all his supporters for his 49 state sweep.

I betcha this type of political evolution has been experienced by a majority of conservatives and Freepers.

To the terrorists who want to destroy America, all Americans are infidels, including the left-wing malcontents........The terrorists do not discriminate. They will kill us all, if we let them.

In actual fact, the Muslims hate the socialist secular-humanists the most, because the latter's pet projects (atheism, women's rights, widespread pornography, etc.) are what Islam most abhors in Western Culture.

Here's my response: PROTESTORS AREN'T ANTI-WAR, They are anti-Bush and anti-American

[Stefan Stackhouse]

There is a name for what the "anti-war" leftist are doing: it is called SEDITION. Sedition is just one very fine line removed from treason in its intended and actual harm to the security and welfare of the nation. Most nations criminalize it, for those guilty of it are indeed criminals. Those nations that fail to criminalize sedition and allow it to run rampant -- like the US -- leave themselves highly vulnerable to what amounts to a "fifth column" within. We have already suffered one defeat (Vietnam) at the hands of this internal enemy army; now they are trying again. While I love our freedoms, one of our fatal flaws may be that in our first amendment, we didn't attach a footnote defining what sedition and treason are, and specifying that they are NOT "protected speech".
