Exercise in Futility: Arguing with a Liberal
(Originally a reply to a liberal over on Peter David’s site, I thought I’d repost it here.)
“Worst. President. Ever.”
Proud of his country. Speaks directly and doesn’t pull punches. A solid American. Yep. I agree. Bush is terrible.
“Biggest liar since the snake in the Garden of Eden.”
So now Bush equals Satan? Yeah. Ok. Sure. (Did someone forget their meds again?)
“More inept than Michael Jackson on his wedding night.”
Yep. And at every turn, this idiot.. this moronic President manages to outwit liberals at every turn.
“A national disgrace which we may never recover from.”
You bet. What we really need is another Clinton, getting his fun in the oral Oval Office, while the World Trade Center, USS Cole, and American embassies in Africa are bombed. No disgrace there.
Or perhaps we could have had John Kerry. Hard to say which of the two – Kerry or Clinton – would be the larger disgrace. Hey! It’d be a race!
Let’s face it: if the Democrats and the whacko Left – which is becoming more and more difficult to tell apart – have their way, we’d be running like cowards out of Iraq.
Why is that? Why is it that, all I hear from the Left is how bad America is? Have the liberal Left joined Al-Qaeda? Al Jazeera loves liberal Democrats. You should visit their site, and see how much they enjoy quoting Democrats.
We’re in a war. We should be supporting the troops, not insulting their efforts. Good things are happening in Iraq. That’s a fact. We’re helping rebuild. We’re training the Iraqi army to take over for themselves.
When should we leave Iraq? When the job is done. When Iraq is ready.
Anything less, like Democrats want, gets you disgrace in the eyes of world. It diminishes America. It’s cowardice. It means all the work in Iraq becomes for nothing. When Al Qaeda fights for dominance of the country and – because we left before Iraq was ready – gets it. Then Iraq becomes a terrorist state. Every person that enjoyed a vote in Iraq would be hunted down and killed.
But, that’s ok. We’d be out of Iraq. We could setup talks with Al Qaeda. Apologize for – well – everything because, y’know, 9/11 was our fault: all those years of being in other countries, trying to spread democracy and freedom… that’s America for you… getting in the way. Let’s just bury our head in the sand, make nicey-nice, sing Kum Ba Ya, and hope that everything returns to a post-9/11 world.
Only we tried that (thankyewverymuch, President Clinton.) We ignored the first bombing of the WTC. We were shocked, appalled, and cheesed off in general about the attack on the USS Cole. We looked the other way, when terrorists attacked American embassies in Africa.
We. Did. Nothing.
We got 9/11.
Finally, we’re doing something. The Democrats – the same guys that are now saying “Bush Lied” – agreed and voted for us to go get the bad guys, wherever and whoever they were.
Part of me wants us to bail out of Iraq, and apologize to all the bad guys for getting in their way, and mucking up their plans. Then we could watch the carnage that results from having given up on the Iraqi people.
But this situation is too serious to allow such an action to take place.
Liberal Democrats that think we shouldn’t be in Iraq should take note of France… y’know the country that takes the position of “hey, don’t look at me.” Yet, they get extremists rioting their anyway.
C’mon, Liberal Leftists, get behind your country. Support our troops. Be Patriotic!
Anything less is just Un-American.
