Good article. More commentators need to be strongly pointing out that the Democrats are trying to put words into President Bush's mouth. While Bush has never called any of the Democrats "unpatriotic," I certainly would. When reflecting on the 9/11 attacks, many of them still muse about why it is that the Islamists hate us so. In other words, faced with the most devastating unprovoked attack on American citizens in the nation's history, many Democrats are inclined to blame America first, as if we deserved to be attacked. While Pres. Bush has been holding his tongue on this, I certain consider this knee-jerk attitude of Democrats unpatriotic, and I'm sure many here do as well.

As a former lefty, I can tell you that the process of becoming one involves psychological renunciation of one's American citizenship, in order to become a "citizen of the world", as all of them see themselves. This condition PREVENTED them from feeling any anger, as the rest of us did.
This is why most libs have responded to 9-11 as if it weren't THEIR COUNTRY which was attacked, and I maintain that is effectively the case.

"While Bush has never called any of the Democrats "unpatriotic," I certainly would." I would take it a step furthur and say that not only are they unpatriotic, they are anti-patriotic.
