Proof that Liberals lie and are ashamed
to be liberals. ****************************** As all of you well know, John Kerry is making conservative values statements faster than anybody can count. He now says life begins at conception. That is not what liberals believe. He's a friend of gun owners. Liberals hate gun owners. He believes marriage should be between a man and a woman. That's not what the liberals in this country are trying to support. He represents conservative values, he said. His Benedict Arnold statements made repeatedly during the primaries were the result of overaggressive speechwriters, not what he thought. Kerry is doing this precisely because he knows liberalism is a political millstone around the neck of any modern presidential candidate. And so do all these other liberals in the media and the Democratic Party, when you accuse this ticket of being the most liberal in the history of the Democratic Party, "What do you mean, liberal? I don't understand. You guys keep throwing that ward around, doesn't mean anything." Rather than, flex any muscles and say, damn right, I'm a liberal. They run from it because it is a millstone. Contemporary liberalism has been shown to be a failure in social policy; for example, in welfare, crime, and education; economic policy, contemporary liberalism leads to high taxes, suffocating regulations, tariffs, the nanny state, if you will. And contemporary liberalism has in foreign and defense policy, leads to unilateral disarmament and unwillingness to use American force, disdain for the idea of American exceptionalism, that's e-x-c, exceptionalism, a deep comfort with framing international issues in terms of right and wrong and good and evil, a discomfort with that. Those are all elements of contemporary liberalism in foreign and defense policy. Get rid of all of our weapons, turn over defense to international bodies like the UN, reluctance to use force, disdain for the idea that America is exceptional, we're no better, we're no different than anybody else; in fact, we have no right to impose ourselves on people, which we don't do. Kerry understands this. He understands he cannot be tagged as a liberal, and so he's going to extraordinary rhetorical and photo op lengths to shed the liberal label. His problem is that as a Massachusetts attorney general and senator his entire political career has been characterized by liberalism. This is not a attack, and that's another thing. You call a liberal a liberal and they say, "You are attacking me, this is a dirty trick. This is attack politics." How can it be? To simply identify them is a dirty trick. But it is to them, it's an epithet. It's not an attack, simply an empirical statement based on Kerry's long voting record, liberalism is the political well from which he has consumed beverages for two decades. ****************************************** Just as George Bush, Sr, commented on the lies and lack of intergirty of Bill Clinton, we are seeing the same sorts of lies out of Kerry. Do we want a President that is a liar and a fraud? The answer is clear, unless you are a liberal and approve of liars. |
