Are the Liberal Left giving aid and comfort to our enemies?

PoliticallyIncorrect

ABSOLUTELY!!!!!!!
With all the Liberal hate being perpetrated, it shows the Bad Guys we are divided, thus weak. One cannot support the Troops while opposing the war...Lot like condoning smoking, but decrying cancer.....Like in Vietnam, the Liberal Picnic, Commie, Hippies were "ANTI-WAR & PRO TROOP"
Then why did we come home to jeers, name calling ( Baby Killer, Murderer Etc.) and why were we spat on and stuff thrown at us, like we were the aggressors?
Whe support for the War fall, Troop support and Troop moral falls too....it is a cancer that will eat at the operation, ultimately resulting in failure..which is a liberal term for victory.....

Public support for the president and the troops are always good in aiding to win a war. However I believe WWII and the "war on terrorism" are two completely different wars. Wars against countries such as Germany or Iraq can be won. However when you have a war on terrorism" who is the enemy?, where is the enemy?, and how are you going to end it? I dont see the "war on terrorism" ever ending the best that we can do is prevent attacks and hunt the terrorists down. We had terrorist for a long time and there not going anywhere anytime soon.

As for are the liberals aiding terrorists, I would say that they are. Not necessarily with not supporting the war and the president, but by the legislation that they support and pass.

I know. EverybodyÂ´s out to get each other and nobody wants to work together. Did you see the clip from CNN that showed them taping a terrorist shooting an American soldier? That infuriated millions of people and they wondered why the CNN people didnÂ´t attack the terrorist themselves. ItÂ´s crazy and itÂ´s not just the media, but also the people in office. They act like they like the insurgents and are encouraging them to go on and keep firing on our soldiers, just so Pres. Bush looks bad. ItÂ´s horrendous that nobody can work together anymore.

Blah, Blah, Blah...this isn't our war. I'm FAR RIGHT and I don't support fighting israel's wars. We need to mind our own business, stop playing the world's police (and paying hundreds of billions yearly for it), and take care of our own problems.

Yes , they have been ever since the initial shock of 9/11 when the tolerant left began to resent the way George Bush took charge and proved he would do more than lip service ( like their boy Clinton ) to protect our nation .
Time & time again , those elected Democrats who spoke out against the very troops who are in harms way - to fight the cause of the prisoners who were killing civilains as well as our troops-and would behead you if only they got the chance . The liberal left
even stooped so low-when the nation was mourning the loss of President Reagen . Peter Jennings resented the fact that a Republican was dominating the news -and stated we need to get back to abu Graibe - after non-stop coverage on the terrorists who were humiliated in prison . If those same prisoners were let free to behead innocent contractors - somehow that was not an important issue for the tolerant liberal biased media . The left will sacrifice all for the party-even you ; even America . The proof goes on every day .

Checkers, anyone?

No, but the white house is, they just warned the Taliban that the US is planning a spring offensive so that OBL can get out of harms way.

the Liberal Left has ALWAYS given aid and comfort to our nations enemies...thats what "leberal left" means....

bob b

Yes at every turn
and for childish reason
They are losers (2000&2004 elections) and want America to be losers also
Thats the reason for all their hate and Defeatism

1 even if public support had been 100% the current strife in the middle east would not be over. the current conflict going on has its roots in the 9th-10th century, as well its not really "terriorists" were fighting were fighting iraqs who are trying to wipe each other out. and men who want to control there country for themselves ie Al Sadr

as for the failure so far to suceeded in stemming secretarian violence this has been due to "policy" decsions by our president, and the iraqi PM to successfully accomplishes goals set out the iraqis need to be able to stand on there own (which they cant) and the american military must root out milia units that cause destabilizing effects. the current situation has nothing to do with "libs" or "neo cons". it has to do with poor utilization of our militarys strengths.

also treason "In law, treason is the crime of disloyalty to one's nation or state. A person who betrays the nation of their citizenship and/or reneges on an oath of loyalty and in some way willfully cooperates with an enemy, is considered to be a traitor. Oran's Dictionary of the Law (1983) defines treason as: "...[a]...citizen's actions to help a foreign government overthrow, make war against, or seriously injure the [parent nation]." In many nations, it is also often considered treason to attempt or conspire to overthrow the government, even if no foreign country is aided or involved by such an endeavour." - wikipedia

by speaking your mind under the bill of rights you are not commiting a treasonous act. only if you engage in acts against the governing body

I'm not so sure about "aid and comfort" but I'd definitely say they're giving them encouragement.

I've never heard anything as dumb as a timetable to leave a war. What if we had said in WWII that we're leaving on April 23, 1944. Can you imagine how that would have effected the outcome.

dapixelator

WWII and Iraq are nothing alike.

I suppose the fact that even most Conservatives are against the ware makes them treaonous too. Get a clue, support the war is gone except for the clueless minority.

Not supporting war in Iraq is not the same as not supporting the war on terror. Most everybody supports that.

fixinto

Its funny to me that when Clinton was President, that the very people blaming Bush, were very supportive of getting rid of Saddam Hussein! Look...politics is all about power..who has it and who doesn't....until you get the money and influence out of Washington, the people will only continue to get lip service from both sides.

BTW...not sure what a "consition" is, but it sounds painful to wipe your butt with it!

What ever happened to having a free nation, or does that only apply to people who agree with you? Free means being free to disagree too.

You've been reading too much propaganda if you believe what you just wrote.

The conservatiive right is who lied about this war -- and who now blame it on the liberals.

kildarner

First off. Everyone supports the troops. There is a big difference between not supporting the presidents military choices and not supporting the troops who are bravely doing their jobs.

But to specificly answer the question, no liberals are not giving our enemy strength. Stop listing to the extreme right wing blowhards. They are crazy. Extreme anything is usually crazy.

dinodino

No. Your fearless leader has not asked anyone to sacrifrice anything for this war but the soldiers and their families.

tx girl

I agree, our great President is doing so much good for the people over there and the liberals are selfish bast**ds for not caring what was happening to them! The politicians only care about themselves getting elected and they have convinced the uneducated population that they are right. Anyone that has an education would agree with you!

tomtoride

go be a hero grab a gun fight for haliburton

Defcon6

The liberals would rather see our troops die in place of terrorists.

mr_crankypants

First off, which enemies? Do you even know who we're fighting in Iraq? Because Moqtda Al Sadr killed US marines in Najaf and Bush has allowed him to be part of the government, and will not move against him. That sounds like aid and comfort to me.

Secondly, we didn't enter world war II until a supermajority of the country supported our entry into the war. Maybe the lesson is you better not start a war in a democracy unless you can keep and maintain the support of the people.

Finally, I hope you're writing this from Iraq, or else you are a massive hypocrite!

The Demoncratic response to the State of the Union Address was very revealing.
To use the words Terrorism and Diplomacy in the same sentence illustrates an incredibly neive view of the world today.
These fools still believe they can sit across a table with these Sand Monkeys and negotiate peace.
There are those who have attempted to answer your question with the same ignorance.
Our enemy is primarily the Sunni Sect. The Shites have demonstrated some willingness to cooperate with us even though there are some vigilantes among them.
While I recognize Islam as a cult, if they are willing to keep it to themselves I have no problem with their self deception.
One idiot actually suggested we "Forget about Israel." Interesting philosophy. Were trying to promote Democracy in the Middle East therefore we turn our backs on the one success there now.
It's this kind of Cranial-Rectal Inversion that makes up the Demoncratic Party.

The Blame America First Association is ALWAYS giving aid and comfort to our enemies!

What puzzles me is why people do not honor the basic tenets this country was built on. The freedom to disagree with and be openly critical of our government is one of the elements of democracy we should be most proud of. Frankly, you don't sound very happy living in a democracy. It sounds like you would prefer it if everyone was forced to remain silent if they disagree with governmental decisions. Or voice their agreement even if they object. It's called a dictatorship, and apparently, you are in favor of it, which is not the government of this country.
Consider this scenario: There is a president in office who supports a policy YOU do not agree with. You voice your disagreement. You are accused of being a traitor because you disagree and are told you cannot voice your opinion anymore. This seems to be what you are in favor of. ugly, isn't it?

Noone i

I couldnt agree with the author of the question more. America has become so divided, and it seems the Left is the perpetrator of that divide.

Its hard to respect the left, but I try.

Charlie Bucket

The treason here is being perpetrated by our own government by needlessly endangering American lives fo corporate profits. You're just a follower. If you think American support is what's affecting this war then you're just ignorant.

No, the liberal left are doing their job to keep our government in check. You have a very broad definition of treason.

jenna

i agree
