Why the Left Must Not Win

Oliver Stone is a well known nut job anyway. But I have given him credit for keeping his World Trade Center movie mostly politics free. That's about as far as my praise for him can go, though. Especially after he perfectly illustrates everything wrong with the left's philosophy in this recent piece. The key phrase is classic leftist "reality based" thinking at its best:

Terrorism is a manageable action. It can be lived with," said Stone.

That's right. Terrorism isn't something that we should go after with the intent of destroying. Instead, it is another unpleasant thing that we need to deal with, like rain on a picnic apparently.

The left's ability to delude themselves about reality is truly astounding. That Stone, and other liberals, cannot fathom the vast gulf of a difference between IRA terrorists and Islamic Jihadists shows us just how unworthy they are to take lead of this nation. They have no concept of the people we are fighting or of the stakes at hand if we simply allow appeasement to win. The very funadmental thinking behind this quote illustrates everything that reminds me how important it is that the liberals in this country do not gain the power they crave. Every time I read or here liberals talking like this, it reminds me why I can't vote for the Democratic party in good conscience, even if I do agree with them on some other issues.
