[Pro-Bush]

"I can hear the wails of many of the Santa Cruz folks that participated in the recent anti-war protests. They will claim that they are concerned citizens, not tools of the Left. But if they marched in a protest without knowing that anti-American Socialists organized the protest they exposed their collective ignorance. This is why they are called ‘useful idiots’."

Excellent stuff....

I can hear the wails of many of the Santa Cruz folks that participated in the recent anti-war protests

The Santa Cruzians miss Jerry Garcia and the Grateful Dead, and any excuse to get together in a commune-like atmosphere is embraced most enthusiasically.

The problem with the left is that they have been anti-American ever since MLK and Bobby Kennedy were assassinated. They don't know any better but if they could ever get back to the patriotism that permeated the leftist protests prior to 1968, they might be able to offer a viable alternative. Otherwise, it is hard to take them very seriously.

I have nothing against these protesters, and in fact, encourage them to hurry to Baghdad to act as "human shields". Time is of the essense.

[notpoliticallycorewrecked]

I'm not for delaying the war but I hope that these mentally challanged people get an "experience". An experience from Saddam or one of the rear guard that will leave them shaking in their boots.
Perhaps one of them will expect the freedoms that we have here that they don't have in Iraq. Won't that be a shock to their delicate system. No nighttime shopping trips in Bagdad. Or perhaps they can go to a nightclub with Saddam's son Odai whom is renoun for his rape methods.

I've heard a lot of vague whispers about who International ANSWER actually is, but no hard facts.

Has anyone done some digging and found out the truth, with visible evidence?

I'm satisfied that there are some really twisted, evil people behind it, but I'd like to know more about them and what the organization is actually trying to accomplish.

It seems we have a great deal of citizens in this country who feel that freedom is a right, not a privilege. They feel they are entitiled to it with no sacrifice or responsibility.

The average protester in the streets is a useful idiot. But the other, more pressing problem for the country is the class of liberal politicians who take advantage of the discord to advance their own personal agendas and assent to power.

The useful idiot on the street is in denial of reality that good and evil actually exist in the world, and they are trying to go retro to a time when they didn't have to worry about terror threats, their personal security, or the security of the country. The useful idiot is in denial because threats to personal and national security are constants throughout history, like during the Cold War, or during the period of rising nationalism in the early 20th C. These people blame America first because it is easier to label the strongest and wealthiest country in the world as the problem than it is to actually identify the complexities of good and evil manifest in the relations between different peoples of the world. These people believe essentially in the false concept of an over-riding humanism that links all people's of the world together. The question is this the success of the socialist/communist agenda/indoctrination, or the failure of our own educational system? Could this world view be the product of the nacent narcissism related to American material success in the last half of the 20th C.?

The average protester in the street is wholly misinformed, and literally prefers an ostrich-with-head-in the-sand approach to the problems currently facing our country. These idiots just want the problems (i.e., impending war with Iraq and the war on terror generally) to go away so they can feel safe again - even if such safety is a figment of their imagination or the product of their own wishful thinking.

The same could be said of the "groups" protesting the Florida recounts (there were protests in other states).

Even before George W. Bush had been certified the winner, the left wing extremists had banded together in common cause against GW. Of course of these socialists had voted for Algore to begin with they may not have had President Bush to kick around.

Some who sign onto the leftist organizations (say against animal cruelty) slowly get indoctrinated (against meat, in support of the homosexual members' rights, etc.). Freedom of thought is not permitted. The positions on the issues have been decided (this is what political correctness refers to; the left tried to say that it was what the society tolerated under the current administration).
