Nerve Endings Firing Away

The claim that we are in the Middle East to protect our liberties is misleading. To continue this charade, millions of Muslims are indicted and we are obligated to rescue them from their religious and political leaders. And we’re supposed to believe that abusing our liberties here at home and pursuing unconstitutional wars overseas will solve our problems.

The 19 suicide bombers didn’t come from Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, or Iran. Fifteen came from our ally Saudi Arabia, a country that harbors strong anti-American resentment, yet we invade and occupy Iraq where no al-Qaeda existed prior to 9/11.

Many fellow conservatives say they understand the property rights and 1st Amendment issues and don’t want a legal ban on building the mosque. They just want everybody to be “sensitive” and force, through public pressure, cancellation of the mosque construction.

Rep.Ron Paul might be cuckoo at times but at least he sticks to his libertarian principles that other Tea Baggers claim to espouse. However, the demagoguery of the Right is more hypocritical than that of the Left because the former are allegedly anti-government intervention and pro-property rights. So it may be bipartisan demagoguery for sure but the persistent hypocritical nature of conservatives makes it more dangerous. Let me take my words back, Democrats wussing out on freedom of religion is equally dangerous because someone who will not stand up to their cause that they extol is equally to blame.
