What Do Liberal’s Really Think?

Well, some of them at least…

Yahoo’s main page linked to a Huffington Post entry regarding the Democratic debates. I can’t say that readers of the Huffington Post are necessarily representative of the Democrats. But, it seems that they are representative of the far left in this country, and what those people think is frighteningly scary. Check out some of these comments below.

Here is one from THEDEVILBOSS:

William Ayers and his wife Bernadette are true American heroes. Thank “god” for those two. While most people in the late 60s were either futilely waving silly banners and doing things that had no impact - these two took the fight to the heart of the death machine. So what if a couple ROTC offices got bombed. That is nothing compared to what the Army did to the 10’s of thousands of unwilling dupes who got enslaved into being pawns in an unwinnable “war” - a dirty war that all involved knew was a total waste of time.
It is too bad that there aren’t any more heroes today like Ayers & Co. who have the balls to stand up to the history that is being repeated - instead we have a dumbed down nation of idiots who just believe the propaganda that gets spoon-fed to them nightly by the same jerks who ran that circus show of a “debate” in PA last night.

William Ayers was a member of the radical and violent group The Weather Underground that planted bombs that killed American soldiers.

The very next comment from ellenolenska states:

I agree with you thedevilsboss wholehardedly. What happened to democracy. If our elected officlals are not representing us properly, sometimes the only way is to resort to violence. People need to read their history, American history and world history to know that these kinds of acts are nothing new and sometimes very effective. Sometimes it’s the only way. I believe the real problem is the mainstream media….they’ve become tabloid. They’re not focusing on the issues. They are the real elitists.

Yikes! If you aren’t happy with the way things in this country are going then terrorism is OK? Wow! So, then the 9/11 bombers were right? This is what happens when moral relativism goes bad!

When I clicked on the link there were 25 pages of comments. I didn’t read them all. And they weren’t all of the nature above. The majority of the comments seemed to indicate that this was an unfair ambush of the candidates, or that the questions raised weren’t really important in the grand scheme of things.

It seems to me that both candidates did a poor job fielding these questions and thier supporters are trying to cover for them. Instead of looking at this debate as an ambush, perhaps the cadidates themselves should have looked at it as an opportunity. I find it hard to believe that neither campaign has heard these issues raised. They must know what the opposition is talking about. And if they have no answer for that, if they haven’t prepared themselves to answer those questions, then shame on them. Instead of seizing this as an opportunity to deflate issues the candidates tried to deflect the questions, and they looked like kids caught with their hands in the cookie jar. They looked like a kid who didn’t do his homework getting called on by the teacher. Do you blame the teacher? I don’t.
