I don't much care to backstop opinion pieces, but...
So now we know what it takes for an unhinged, bigoted demagogue to win
liberal applause: just bypass a constitution to fire some missiles. It
had seemed as though there was consensus among those in the anti-Trump
camp. This man was a threat to US democracy and world peace. The echoes of 1930s fascist leaders were frightening. “This republic is in serious danger,” declared conservative writer Andrew Sullivan
on the eve of Trump’s triumph. That this megalomaniac “pussy-grabbing”
ban-the-Muslims ex-reality TV star would soon control the world’s most
lethal military arsenal was chilling.
Liberal lapdogs ... so loving ... so snuggling for attention, licking the master's face ... oh, it's a positive ASPCA circle jerk. My heart swoons. My reflection in the mirror is so much more kind-of compassionate and yet firm.
Where's this coming from? Been listening to midday alt-right radio?
ReplyDeleteSome liberals are pacifists, some are not. Most self styled liberals do not agree with every idea labeled liberal.
Trump aside, did Assad's action merit a response? A military attack?
If Assad were a demented bully in the school yard brutalizing kindergarteners with the adults wringing their hands about his special ed status, and the 8th grader with the black belt kicked the bully's ass short of serious damage would you be concerned with lberal and conservative or even consistent policy.
