Senator Harry Reid is a wonderful example of what the liberals in this country would have us all become. Please note, I did not say "Democrats", because I sincerely believe that there are Democrats out there who still have a backbone; but the Joe Libermans' are few and far between in the party.
Just for a moment, let's go back to WWII. Can you imagine a Senate Majority Leader saying the war is lost; trying to cut funding for the troops and offering our enemies a time line for when we plan to tuck our tail between our legs and run? I guess Webster's is going to have to rethink their definition of the word "treason". Personally, I think the definition should stay the same and we should place Senator Reid's name right alongside another great American's: Benedict Arnold.
Those who say that the Democrats want to see us defeated in Iraq are way off the mark. We are all Americans and no one wants to see us defeated. Don't misunderstand - they don't want to see us defeated - they want to see George Bush defeated and the Democrats back in total control. If it means that we desert people struggling to form a democratic government; if that means that terrorists around the world can count on the fact that the United States will not stand by it's friends and allies; if the cause of freedom is relegated to the dreams of the few; if Iraq becomes Iran's private terrorist training camp; that's a small price to pay for Democrats to be in power. The party comes before the country - a sad commentary on the party that once had men like Harry Truman and Jack Kennedy leading it. They were men, not the spineless dish rags like Harry Reid and Dick Durbin.
What are the Democrats for? You pretty much know what they're against: free speech (unless you're spouting their party line), freedom of ideas (unless it meets their criteria that the United States is the root of evil in the world), the right to bear arms (they can control us with less effort if we can't fight back), protecting the lives of the unborn (it's just a clump of cells, it doesn't have a soul because their is no God) - I could go on, but the point is quite simple: They don't stand for much of anything - they just stand against whatever the President is for.
The two young men from Lewis County who gave their lives have been disgraced and diminished by the words of Senator Reid, and that is the greatest crime of all. I try to force myself to always consider the opposing point of view and remember that the person who holds that view is, first and foremost, a child of God; secondly, they are Americans who love their country (for the most part), and they are entitled to their point of view and the freedom to express it. Senator Reid has gone way beyond that.
It gives one pause when you consider that Don Imus was fired for cracking a tasteless joke using language that you can hear everyday on any rap/hip-hop radio station, yet the Senate Majority leader preaches defeatism and treason and the party lemmings are ready to eagerly follow him right off the cliff.
There are positive aspects to all of this liberal lunacy, you just have to look for that silver lining:
1.) The French will love us again and Jerry Lewis will be elected President of France.
2.) Alec Baldwin will become Secretary of State and leave screaming phone messages for world leaders instead of his 11 year old daughter.
3.) Rosie O'Donnell will become Secretary of Stupidity and get her own TV show on CNN - Streisand is ready to step in when Rosie eventually goes to rehab for her Twinkie addiction.
4.) Charlie Sheen and Sean Penn will be Co-Secretary's of Paranoia and Conspiracy, and they will eventually prove that 9-11 was a gigantic hoax created by Charlton Heston and the NRA.
5.) Cindy Sheehan and the Rev. Al Sharpton, posing as Tweedle-Dum and Tweedle-Dee, will become Ambassadors to Venezuela and Russia respectively. Cindy gets Venezuela because she already thinks Hugo Chavez is the person inside the Barney costume, and the Rev. Al gets Russia because they shoot people over their who run their mouths off and even the Democrats don't much care what happens to Al as long as he's out of the country.
6.) Al-Gore will become Secretary for the Environment, creating a "carbon-credits" program that will rival any previous attempts at boondooggling (I'm not sure if that's a word, but it should be). Based upon Al-Gore's philosophy of "do as I say, not as I do", lights will go out around the world sometime around 2012. As all governments fail and anarchy reigns, the law of the jungle will prevail and all liberals will be shot on sight or sentenced as indentured servants for Rush Limbaugh and Karl Rove.
See, I told you there was a silver lining.
