It amazes and frightens me how much Liberals have in common with the terrorists we're fighting.  I'm not saying they're in league with them or anything like that (most of them), I'm merely observing that they share a great many aims (for different reasons, to be sure).  Take the following similarities, for instance...

• Terrorists hate the PATRIOT Act because it curtails their freedom to move in and out of the USA at will, gives terrorism investigations the same powers as drug or organised crime investigations have had for years, and makes their activities against the USA harder to commit.
  
  
• Liberals also hate the PATRIOT Act. They rail against it at every opportunity, usually without an understanding of its provisions or effects, only a vague charge that it "destroys civil liberties".  I've been waiting since it was first written for a single instance of an actual civil liberty that has been impacted by the Act.  Even the infamous "library clause" -- which allows an investigation in progress to examine what books a suspect has checked out of a library -- is already in use for drug investigations.

• Terrorists would love it if law-abiding Americans were unable to own and carry weapons. They might actually use them when an act of terrorism is in progress, making the terrorists' lives harder and putting them in danger!
  
  
• Liberals also favor rigid gun control. They don't believe any private citizen could have a legitimate excuse for owning a working weapon. They seem to forget that we don't NEED an excuse or reason; it's our right to do so according to the Second Amendment of the US Constitution.  If citizens have no guns, how are we supposed to ensure that the government doesn't really take our rights away (as in the mythical depredations of the PATRIOT Act)?

• Terrorists, being religious extremists, hate Judeo-Christian religions and want to see them destroyed.  They hate any sort of religious display or paraphernalia (Christian and Jewish, that is).  They see their struggle as Islam against Christianity, although they've twisted the basic tenets of modern Islam to make it seem that way.
  
  
• Liberals, many of them anti-religious extremists, also hate Judeo-Christian religions and want to see them banished from the public view. They use the First Amendment, which guarantees freedom of religion, to attack any Christian exercising that right.  They also vehemently hate religious displays, including attacking a public-school teacher's aide who wore a small gold cross around her neck.  Liberals are working to ban Christmas and all Judeo-Christian religious holidays, even forcing people to say "Happy Holidays" or "Season's Greetings" instead of "Merry Christmas", because someone might be "offended" by another person's offering them good wishes or even mentioning the name of the holiday in a song.

• Terrorists are inflamed by our wealth in the West. Instead of asking themselves "what have they done right?", they decided that we should die for having more than they do.  As a symbolic strike at our wealthy economic system, they attacked the World Trade Center.
  
  
• Liberals also hate the fact that the West is wealthy. The capitalist system combined with the work ethic bequeathed us by our more religious predecessors has brought America as a whole to a level of prosperity unmatched in the world, and this drives the Liberals mad.  They want to raise taxes, regulate and restrict corporations into the ground, and generally create an unfriendly environment overall for business and capitalism, where everyone works for and depends upon the government.

• Terrorists hate the US military.  Osama bin Laden declared his jihad against us because we had troops stationed in Saudi Arabia, in "occupation of the land of the holy places" (Mecca and Medina). Our military drove al-Qaeda from its stronghold in Afghanistan, and is engaged in striking them down around the world.
  
  
• Liberals have hated the US military since the sixties. To them, our modern, intelligent, educated, trained, all-volunteer military are the same violent conscript scum portrayed in Oliver Stones's anti-war, anti-military flick Platoon, just itching to stomp on any non-American for any reason. Or none.

• Terrorists hate President Bush because he's actually doing something about global terrorism.  They hate the fact that he's working to spread democracy to the Middle East, and remove the threat of WMDs from the arsenals of the terrorists.  They hate the fact that he's working to undermine support for terrorism, even going so far as to apply sanctions against countries that support it. They hate the fact that he took the fight to Iraq, a known supporter of terrorism, including al-Qaeda.
  
  
• Liberals hate President Bush, too.  They're mobilising their efforts to get someone -- anyone -- else into the White House in 2004.  Liberal organisations such as MoveOn.org attack the president daily, with the willing cooperation of the "news" media. Billionaires like George Soros pledge obscene amounts of money ($15 million so far) to the fight to elect a different President. They, too, hate the fact that he took the War on Terrorism to Iraq, refusing to believe that Saddam supported and trained al-Qaeda operatives at Salman Pak, possibly even those who flew planes into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon and a field in Pennsylvania on 9/11. The Liberals hate President Bush more than they do al-Qaeda.

How do you think the terrorists feel about that?
