Democrats War on Friends and Allies

          Trying to comprehend the mindset of a democrat is mind-boggling. They seem so eager to fight against friends and allies rather then stand up against those who openly claim to be our enemies. Enemies who have openly declared that a part of their war strategy against America is to break the will of the American people, an old war strategy the democrats seem unfamiliar with.

The democrats stick out their chest, pick fights with those whom they figure they can wage a verbal war, and say that they are doing the humanitarian right thing, all the while placing in jeopardy those who are on the front lines fighting in America’s war.

        This vote by the democrats to fix a label to an incident that occurred between the Turks and the Armenian people, nearly a hundred years ago is a typical ‘self-righteous’ stance of the democratic party. Though noble on its outward appearance, I cannot but wonder about their inner agenda.

          What happened to the Armenian people in 1915 as well as before and after is no doubt a travesty and should be recognized as such. But why now do the democrats deem it all so important to make this stance?

        As for the Turkish people, while serving in the Army, I spent a tour stationed in Turkey and found them to be an honorable and good people and greatly undeserving of this label the democrats are attempting to place upon them. This past between the Turkish and Armenian people should not be remembered as genocide, but a life lesson that should never be allowed to happen again.  

          As for the democrats and their agenda…

          If I didn’t know better, I would swear that there are some in the democratic party fighting against American victory in the war on terror. But saying such things could be considered calling unpatriotic those who leak vital information or bad mouth their President and their country on foreign soil. What about those insisting that America make public sensitive information used against our enemies, or those who think that American privacy goes beyond American safety? Tell me, is it patriotic to encourage our enemies to commit more and more outrageous acts of violence in order to make headlines so that politicians can point out how bad the war is going? Or is it patriotic for one who is running for President, the representative of America, to refuse to wear the symbol of America, our flag? In another place and time in our history, such acts would be considered treasonous and had they gone unchallenged, America would not be the America we know today.

          Tell me, what should I think of a congressional representative who would, in a time of war, deem it more important to anger an ally over something blatantly irrelevant at this point in time? Should I feel safer with him or her in office supposedly looking out for the well-being of the country? Should I think them a man or woman whose judgments are trustworthy and sound and that they are looking out for my best interest?

          Democrats are running around looking for a battle to fight when the greatest battle in the history of the world rages around them, yet they have chosen to fight against their President and American allies in this war on terrorism. They have decided that those who fight in our militaries and those whose lives have been lost in this battle against terrorism isn’t worth more than a political statement.

Freedom brings with it growth for all, and has never, not once been given without the price of blood.

Sad to say that that is the history of our world.

The day you tell me that my self right, or my economical freedom isn’t worth fighting and dying for, or that my neighbor’s isn’t worth fighting and dying for, then those who wish to take such freedoms away, have won.

           It makes me wonder if democrats understand the term friend and ally, let alone countrymen!
