Liberals Kill U.S. Soliders

I don't know if you've noticed, but there are actually liberal soldiers. You don't have to be Republican to love your country and want to serve. The title of your article is very insulting to the many liberal soldiers and officers serving in our armed forces.

Political opportunism at its ugliest low.

I thought that "political opportunism" happened in every war. Or peace too, for that matter...

This is quite possibly the dumbest thing i have heard in a long time.

Please take your lithium.

You know, at first I didn't even read your article because I was so focused on the ridiculous wrongness of the title. I have read your whole paragraph of a blog, and I would like to second thatoneguy's comments. *cuckoo . . . cuckoo . . . cuckoo*

hitparade.............while the liberals don't have a direct hand in killing our young men, they certainly don't help by not supporting the war on terror. if the democrats would just get behind the president the enemy could be crushed in no time.

They encourage terrorists, period. Terrorist say, "You shouldn't be here." Kerry and his ilk point to the act and say "See, we shouldn't be there." Terrorists say "We will bog you down in a new Vietnam." Liberals say say the same thing.

If the message is the weapon, and it surely is, then what does it matter if a rich senator is saying it or a terrorist? It is still a weapon. Kerry and Pelosi and everyone using war propaganda, stretching the truth, destroying our morale; they are all traitors to their country.

Next week, when the terrorists sit around deciding what to do, they have a good idea because of the statements made by these ghouls that their tactics are working, and that their efforts are having an impact. As long as they see that beheading people and killing US personel squelches our ability to support the war, they'll keep beheading people.

The sad part is Kerry and the rest aren't cowards, they are opportunists. IF they were cowards it would be excusable. Instead they are climbing up piles of bodies to get to their power. Shame on them.

He has done it twice already.

Once during Vietnam and again he tryed in Niceraqua.

It's Kerry's way of gaining power. By spreading American defeatism.

This is the wrong war, period. We went into a secular nation, denounced by Osama bin Laden and other extremists, looking for al Qaeda. Iraq isn't a part of the war on terror. We went into a secular nation with virtually no terrorists, and made it a breeding ground for fundamentalists and extremists. We went looking for WMD. 1 year and 5 months later, the ones we should have attacked, Iran, are the ones making nukes. We should have attacked Iran or Sudan, or any of the other nations that actually have al Qaeda ties. If you believe that Democrats are the ones in Iraq with AK-47's following some fanatical cleric, or if you believe that Democrats are against the war on terror, then you have been watching way too much Hannity and Colmes and reading too much Ann Coulter.

Baker......

I am sooooooooooo dissappointed in you right now. You just earned a troll buddy! The mere suggestion that Kerry is a traitor is just wrong! If the current administration even had a plan, then MAYBE he would have stood by his decision to back bush 2.0. How many more soldiers have to die while he sits there with his thumb up his a** and comes up with a plan to deal with Iraq?

thatoneguyinslc : You are too smart to spout this "They don't have a plan" stuff. This is the US military and the President of the United States. It's asinine to say "they don't have a plan". They successfully liberated Afghanistan and Iraq in an impossibly short amount of time with an amazingly small number of casualites. There are hold-outs and insurgents, but those have been commonplace in every war we have ever fought.

Kerry, Micheal Moore, and the liberal mainstream opposing the war, are traitors to their country. Feel free to troll me again. Put their "message" right next to enemy propaganda from WW2, from Vietnam, compare it to terrorist speeches now. They continually overstate our losses, ignore our successes, claim that the soldiers are dying needlessly, claim that the war is being fought for covert, unjust reasons. Their message is could be rehashed Tokyo Rose speeches.

As I have said before, the message is the weapon, and Kerry and ilk are firing it as much as any terrorist organization, and for completely self-serving reasons. He is purposefully harming his nation, and aiding the cause of our enemies, for personal gain. That is the textbook definition of traitor.

It is sad that we live in a day and age where voicing your opinion contrary to the current ruling group is considered treason. I fear for the world our children will live in if this current attitude continues.

" It is sad that we live in a day and age where voicing your opinion contrary to the current ruling group is considered treason."

If it were only opinion, there wouldn't be a problem. The facts are being misrepresented, the truth is twisted, lies are told, and ALL WITH THE SPECIFIC GOAL OF UNDERMINING SUPPORT FOR THE WAR AMONG THE US PUBLIC AND THE MILITARY.

They are using half-truths, Moore-esque "questions", and outright lies to demoralize and splinter the will of the American people. That isn't simple expression, that is a pointed, overt attempt to subvert the war for the personal gain of the people involved. If that isn't treasonous, what exactly is?

I also fear for our children. A nation as splintered and self-obsessed as we have become cannot stand, period. No decisions can be followed through on, there is no respect for authority, so solidarity,nothing. The US is becoming a self-indulgent, nihilist mess. We don't believe in anything, we don't think anything is worth doing. Yes, I think our children are very much in danger from the current mode of thought here.

Why must we support every war? Why must we all follow rank and file behind whatever our leaders say? Is that the key to being a good American? Is that what we all should do, because not supporting war is paramount to treason? Is that to say everyone who speaks out critically about the government and whatever they're doing and tries to persuade people to their way of thinking is a traitor? That's not treason, that's our right as Americans. We are supposed to question and disagree with the acts of our government. We do this by protesting, by giving speeches and by VOTING. We fought a revolution against our parent nation under that idea.

You would trade our freedom for our safety. I would rather be a free man able to speak my mind and be open to possible attack than be safe and secure but be unable to say what I wish.

No, there is a difference between not supporting and undermining. There is a difference between speaking critically and lying and purposefully constructing propaganda that makes things seem far worse, or unreasonably questions the intent of the President.

You don't care, I realize that, but the majority of the words coming from the anti-war ghouls ARE LIES or vast misrepresentations.

This isn't about saying "I don't agree with war, I don't think we should be there." This is about Moore, Kerry and the rest misrepresenting Iraq, misrepresenting Bush, misrepresenting the actions of the military and the successes they have achieved, and mimicking terrorist statements FOR PERSONAL GAIN. These people are seeking wealth and power and doing it by subverting the morale of the US military and general public.

Make this a "free speech" issue all you like, but there is a reason that propagandists in other wars have faced criminal charges. The message Radio Tokyo broadcast during WW2 and that of Farenheit 9-11 is almost identical in thought and spirit. One was a crime, the other is free speech? Hardly.

I mean, come on, how can you be this blind?

"We are losing the war"
"The war is unjust"
"People are dying for nothing"
"Your leaders are inept"
"your victories are fabricated and your failures are covered up"

Blah, blah, blah. Can you not see that this is *identical* to enemy propaganda? Can you not see that this goes WAY beyond dissent and becomes an overt act of undermining? At what point do YOU see the act becoming destructive? Terrorists are already using our own "dissent" in their statements as they behead people.

What do you call people that demoralize and splinter a nation during a time of war for personal gain? I call them traitors. I am gravely ashamed of some people in my country, and I have little hope in a future that lauds them as "patriots".

To those of you who are trying to claim that Iraq has no terrorist connections or had none before this recent war. I am here to educate you.
Or rather - point you to where you can educate yourselves.

The Council on Foreign Relations addresses this question in depth at http://www.terrorismanswers.org/sponsors/iraq.html Link

Looks like a comprehensive guide to Iraq with specific Al-Quaeda connections followed by about 60 links to news reports on the subject here: Link


Here is just one of them from CNN - I excerpt this because I realize how many biased people think that CNN is holy or something: Link

National Review has a number of articles - here is one: Link

Then there is this Al-Zarqawi guy. An Al Quaeda opperative known to have been finding refuge in Iraq since before this war - here is an NBC article: Link

The Department of defense has some recent terror info as well as archived stuff at: Link

Hussein harboring and sheltering terrorists including Al Quaeda members (no collaboration on 9/11 but giving them sanctuary) from the News Telegraph: Link

This is a new one on me called the Debkafile - they claim to have clear links - here: Link

An article by ultra-liberal ex-NYC Mayor Ed Koch supporting the war in Iraq as part of the global war on terror: Link

Some pics and footage links plus articles of Hussein giving US$25,000 to families of suicide bombers. Hussein was very proud of his contributions and made them very public: Link

A report on Powell first announcing to America that Al-Zarqawi, a known Al-Queda collaborator, was beiung harbored by Hussein and was supposedly still there - we all know what he has been doing lately... Link

A rightist but very well done article (including Quoran citations) on Iraq harboring world wide terrorists: Link

And finally a compillation of links and articles aboutthe Iraq / Terror connection: Link

Or just use common sense - these guys running around shouting that Allah is great and slowly chopping of heads of westerners with dull blades are what? Recent converts to fanaticism and radical ideologies or terror? Please.

Furthermore, if Iraq has become a magnet for the worlds terrorists, then that means that the War on Terror is working out for us.

If they are gravitating to Iraq - where our military is - then is that not exactly what we want?
They sure aren't in the US - well, we have captured some here but the main movemenet is to Iraq, where our military can deal with them rather than our civilians. Let all the terrorists migrate to Iraq. We couldn't have had better results if we asked them nicely

Bringing the war to them. That is the point.

I wonder why people what to get their throuts cut?

This war we are in is not just an other one that we can just retreat and they will go away.

These people we are fighting just don't want us out of the Middle East. They want us DEAD or having us preying to Mecca three time a day. Nothing short of the total distruction of our way of life.

People can live in their dream world all they want. Unfortunately some like Kerry is using this dream land to grab political power. He has done it before. Ask the people from South Veitnam how much they like Kerry and his type. Meany of those people were either placed in exile, put in re-education camps, had family members killed just because they were suspected of dealing with the Americans or poeple having everything taken that they ever owned and forced onto a collective farms,. There was a reason we were in Veitnam, and sorry to burst your bubble but the majority of the Veitmanies people sere not communist. That's why the communist did not wait for free elections after a stable country was made, but had to force their views on others with a gun. (This remind me of whats happening now)

If Kerry had his way in Central America, it would be full of Cuba like countries now. With Dictatorships killing people just the same as the Muslims in Africa are doing on a daily bases, but under a diffrent idealogy.

If Kerry and his like gets his wishs and turn this into another Veitnam Defeitism of just backing away to hide their heads. The world in 40 years may not look very pleasing.

Give the Iraqies a chance. Every time we here about another Iraqie recruiting station getting bombed. All Kerry keeps saying is the terrorist are winning because the attacks are continueing. They keep continueing because Kerry keeps saying that we are losing. I say the terrorist are not winning because those recruiting offices are still full of people willing to go to them in order to be trained to kill terrorist. It will take time for the Iraqies to take thier country back. Give them a chance Kerry. Every time he says the Iraqie MP is lieing he hurts the Iraqies and if Kerry does get elected what credablity will the MP have left. The MP may as well cut his own throut.

I know what I siad was not PC, but WAKE UP this is not a war we can retreat from. Because there is an old Islamic saying that where ever the enemy retreats follow, because that is were you will destroy him.

Sadly That's My Two Cents

He IS a traitor! And it has nothing to do with Iraq!

"I am sooooooooooo dissappointed in you right now. You just earned a troll buddy!"

I have a question: If someone rates an article as trolling, does that reduce a bloggers point value? Or, does it increase it, just because it's verification that it was read? Or, does it increase the point value, because the original poster is stirring the "pot"?

On another note, this post is as deserving of multiple troll ratings, as it is nothing but hate-filled hyperbole. Not to mention that it's totally false, political spin. HitParade, you should be ashamed of yourself.
