Welcome Hugh Hewitt Readers! Hope you can take the time to peruse the site and find something of interest.

Kerry’s comments, as I an many other bloggers have catalogued, is not the exception, an outlier. It was not out of character for the democrat and the fevered supporters. This election was always about the fissures in the Democrat Party – always. People assumed it was about the Reps and Iraq, and there is much to ponder about Iraq as we face our fifth year coming up next March. But we know the decision to free the people and give them a good shot at democracy was the right decision. We are just hoping we can make it work.

But the fevered swamps on the left have a different view and have from the start. I pointed out earlier comments by the far left printed on 9-11 blaming us for the attack, claiming 9-11 was deserved for all our efforts in the past to contain the mad dictators of the ME. The left has been about tearing down America to build a socialist version. To end the freedoms and put everyone in line. To create purity of thought by mandate (thought police laws). And the biggest target of the left is our brave military. Drudge has two items which everyone should share with everyone they know which show the true ‘heart’ of the liberals. First there is this:

“There has never been an American army as violent and murderous as the one in Iraq”

Pulitzer-winning investigative journalist Seymour Hersh slams Bush at McGill address.

…

If Americans knew the full extent of U.S. criminal conduct, they would receive returning Iraqi veterans as they did Vietnam veterans, Hersh said.
“In Vietnam, our soldiers came back and they were reviled as baby killers, in shame and humiliation,” he said. “It isn’t happening now, but I will tell you – there has never been an [American] army as violent and murderous as our army has been in Iraq.”

Hersch is complaining that when attacked, our troops fight back. At least our troops don’t capture civilians and slowly saw their heads off for propaganda films. Then there is this on Kerry from 1972, which explains his slip on ‘the joke’:

n 1972, as he ran for the House, he was less apologetic in his comments about the merits of a volunteer army. He declared in the questionnaire that he opposed the draft but considered a volunteer army “a greater anathema.”

“I am convinced a volunteer army would be an army of the poor and the black and the brown,” Kerry wrote. “We must not repeat the travesty of the inequities present during Vietnam. I also fear having a professional army that views the perpetuation of war crimes as simply ‘doing its job.’

All Kerry learned since then is to modify the thought to “the poor, the uneducated, and the black and the brown”. As I noted in my earlier post, there was Ted Rall and Michael Moore. But why stop there? There is always the other Mad Gore (Vidal). The left has long believed the US commits War Crimes, and our military and intelligence personal are glad to participate.

The truth of the matter the election is a choice between protecting this nation from Islamo Fascists or going on a liberal orgy of investigations and witch hunts leading to impeachment. They vultures on the left will not be supporting our troops, they will be bringing them home to stand trial in standard Congressional theatre. They will find the next generations of uuseful idiots like Kerry to explore Abu Grhaib and every urban encounter. Our military will be brought up on charges here and across the ocean, as a lessen to George Bush and the Reps. The liberal fantasy is to prosecute those who prosecuted the war. Terrorists will be pushed into the courts here in the US. They will mingle with our hardened criminals, setting up all sorts of problems. The NSA will be shutdown and Bin Laden will rule in Iraq. And there is a really good chance Israel will be overrun. Because once the Democrats have our brave men and women testifying against each other in show trial in Congress and played out on CNN, the world will erupt. And the Dems have no ability or intention to do anything about it. They will be focused on impeachment.

Think about if folks. It is not a far fetched possibility. It is much more believable than the idea Bush and Cheney knew about 9-11 and made it happen. In fact, it is the belief in that ridiculous consipiracy theory that allows the left to rationalize there are no rules to politics anymore. In their fevered minds, if Bush and Cheney could pull off 9-11, then they too must fight down and dirty. I gaurantee you that the left intends to do what it takes to stop the evil they see in their BDS obsessed heads. Sadly, we Americans are that evil. In fact, some have already called for this to start:

There will be more in this intermittent series about the special extralegal rules the president has given the CIA, as well as additions to Mayer’s article. But I urge you to get this 80th anniversary issue of The New Yorker, and then insist that your members of Congress interrogate the top-level perpetrators of war crimes in this administration.

And as I said, this is the tip of the iceberg. More here. These are Pelosi Democrats.
