What Dems Really Think
2 November 2006The story is told that at Bill Clinton’s first inauguration, an Air Force flyover occurred. Some liberals in the audience protested saying, “how dare those guys show up at this.” They were informed that, while the military was bad, this was their military.
The sad fact is, most liberals hate the military. They hate everything about the military. They hate the very idea of a military. They see soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines as subhuman and evil. John Kerry merely put in words what most liberals have believed for decades. All you have to do is read the moonbat blogs to see this is true. For example, Pamela Leavey at The Democratic Daily had this to say (H/T ALa at blonde sagacity):
Talk about speaking the stark truth to students who want more out of life. The education system in California is a mess, especially in L.A. County. Each day I pick my daughter up at school I see the recruiters leaving, smiling because they have snagged another kid who’s trapped by the system and sees no future other than enlisting. It shouldn’t be like this. A 50% drop out rate is unacceptable. What is the bottom line for these kids, a job at McDonald’s or Iraq. Kudos to Kerry for delivering a wake up call to the young voters at the rally (wingnuts are all wet on their claims).
Some will be tempted to read Leavey’s remarks and conclude that she is just some nut on the left, that no one takes her seriously. But nothing could be further from the truth. On the contrary, Leavey speaks for a growing majority of Democrats.
This is the choice we face next Tuesday. I am as disgruntled as anyone over the way Republicans in Congress have grown fat and happy, adopting many of they way their Democrat predecessor acted before them. But the fact is, there is still a difference. The Democrats still believe that military might is unimportant and, indeed, counterproductive. They believe there is no problem, no difficulty that cannot be solved through negotiation. They expect everyone in the world to respond to rational arguments. (This has always bemused me considering Democrats don’t respond to rational arguments.)
In five days we will go to the polls. While I still predict the Republicans will hold majorities in both houses, I am not so confident that I don’t think we need to work for it. If they do pull it off, my hope is they will have had something of a wakeup call in this close election. but even if they don’t, even if they continue spending like drunken sailors, we are still far better off as a country with them in charge as opposed to the Democrats. At least they get the idea of national security and fighting a war.
