"The War Is Lost!" So says Harry Reid the Commander-in-Chief of the Democrat forces in the U.S. Senate. He is echoing the cries throughout his party. Now I am sure there are a few stalwart Dems who feel otherwise. Sen. Lieberman was forced out of the Democrat Party by the anti-war left. There are a number of House members, Democrats, who still feel committed to their previous stands. Not so for MOST of the party.
In an era where allies look for trust and credibility, the Democrats balk. One can count on their turncoat attitudes if the political wind blows in another direction. Just look at all of the silence to Pres. Clinton's invasion of Bosnia. Look at all of the domestic positioning against Republican abuse of power. Yet, now that the shoe is on the other foot there is a plethora of changed Democrat positions.
That isn't to say the Republican party is averse to changing its views from time to time, it's just that the Democrat party is so blatant and so overwhelming in its hypocrisy. Reading positions from the end of the Clinton administration can be instructive where the Democrat positions have changed 180 degrees in 8 years. That's some kind of "growth".
To the American people and to the world at large, it shows that if Democrats are in power, they can be easily manipulated by positioning problems as political. "The enemy of my enemy is my friend". This is Democrat gospel. Iran, Syria, Al Qaeda all know how to take advantage of the Democrats and the willing press if they can get on the side of the "Anti-Bush". It doesn't matter about our international committments. It doesn't matter about our national security. It doesn't matter about special relationship with Israel, the only true democracy in the Middle East. It only matters about taking it to President Bush.
The Democrats are unwitting accomplices of radical Islam. They are showing the world how to add "paper" to "tiger". What is remarkably alarming is that the Democrats are moving towards international statism. They are intent on destroying America. Indeed the far-left of their party are rabid America-haters. Patriots? Not on your life. Internationalists? You betcha!
Republicans need to expose the Democrats for what they are. They need to fight for America, for our individual freedoms and for our right to exist as an independent nation. They, along with unwitting Republican accomplices in the government, are intent on creating a borderless North America. For President Bush, it probably isn't so unwitting.
We need to show the world that the U.S. is all about strength and independence. We need to stick with the Iraqis until they can fight the radical Islamist forces that resort to utter barbarism. We need to show the world that we mean what we say. We need to show the world that we can rise from the cynical manipulation of a left-wing agenda-driven national media and demonstrate independence.
Our 'friends" in Washington, members of both parties, are working against the people. The people need to rise up and show what independence really means. We were successful in the recent amnesty debacle. We can be successful in the future.
