"THE PROGRESSIVES" SUPPORT ABORTION ON
DEMAND AND OPPOSE PARTIAL BIRTH ABORTION BAN

National Organization For Women (NOW) President Kim Gandy Called Partial Birth Abortion Ban "A Dangerous Piece Of Legislation" Pushed By "Anti-Choice Machine." "The so-called Partial-Birth Abortion Ban is a dangerous piece of legislation that ultimately seeks to outlaw even the safest abortion procedures. The truth is that the term 'partial birth abortion' doesn't exist in the medical world – it's a fabrication of the anti-choice machine."

"THE PROGRESSIVES" DEMAND DEMOCRATS BACK JUDGES WHO OPPOSE PATRIOT ACT AND DEATH PENALTY, SUPPORT UNRESTRICTED ABORTION

People For The American Way Leads Opposition To Bush Judicial Nominees. "Ralph Neas's official biography describes him as the '101st Senator,' from an admiring comment by Teddy Kennedy. Actually, that's selling him short. When it comes to judicial nominations, Mr. Neas might as well be the one and only Senator. The 10 Democrats on the Judiciary Committee salute and follow orders. Following his borking of judicial nominee Charles Pickering Sr., Mr. Neas has issued new directives from his command center at the People for the American Way. The war plan remains the same: Keep as many Bush nominees as possible off the bench, especially the appeals courts." (Editorial, "Neas's New Orders," The Wall Street Journal, 4/24/02)

People For The American Way Pushes For Judges That Oppose USA Patriot Act, Oppose Ban On Partial-Birth Abortions, And Oppose Death Penalty. (People For The American Way Website, www.pfaw.org/pfaw/general/default.aspx?oid=103, Accessed 6/2/04)

George Soros Compared Bush Administration To Nazis. "Soros believes that a 'supremacist ideology' guides this White House. He hears echoes in its rhetoric of his childhood in occupied Hungary. 'When I hear Bush say, "You're either with us or against us," it reminds me of the Germans.' It conjures up memories, he said, of Nazi slogans on the walls, Der Feind Hort mit ('The enemy is listening'). 'My experiences under Nazi and Soviet rule have sensitized me,' he said in a soft Hungarian accent." (Laura Blumenfeld, "Soros's Deep Pockets Vs. Bush," The Washington Post, 11/11/03)

NAACP's Julian Bond Compared Bush Administration To Taliban. "'Instead of uniting us, the new administration almost daily separates and divides,' Bond told about 350 people gathered in a ballroom at the Capital Hilton. 'They selected nominees from the Taliban wing of American politics, appeased the wretched appetites of the extreme right wing and chose Cabinet officials whose devotion to the Confederacy is nearly canine in its uncritical affection.'" ("NAACP Accuses Bush Of Dividing Nation," Los Angeles Times, 2/18/01)

I've come up with a conversational technique that will make those leftist creeps stick their feet in their mouths up to their knees - every time.

It goes like this:

If some chowderhead leftist starts spouting their verbal garbage, ask the person if they support socialism.

If he/she/it answers "Yes" (as they invariably will), ask him/her/it whether or not they support socialism on a national basis in the United States.

When he/she/it answers in the affirmative, look him/her/it in the eye, grin, and say, "So what you're telling me is that you are a National Socialist?"

When he/she/it says, proudly, "Yes", you can start screaming, "THIS CREEP IS A NATIONAL SOCIALIST - A NAZI! NAZI! NAZI! NAZI! GET OUTTA HERE YOU NAZI PIG!"

It works. It shuts them up and sends them running with their tails between their legs.

Great Idea! I've actually used this too. Speaking of socialists, I got an email from a troll today. Here it is and below is my answer:

"Modern "progressive" liberalism is just NAZIism..."

Wow. What a coincidence that anyone you don't like is really a Nazi. That must be very handy for you: instead of having to actually engage in reasoned debate about honest disagreements in policy, you get to just shout "Nazi" and be on your way.

How lovely of you.

My response:

Wow, ad hominum attacks right off the bat! Please tell me where my statment is wrong?

Modern "progressive" liberalism is National Socialism (NAZIism). They have the same political rehtoric, propaganda machines, youth indoctrination policies, and attack Christians and Jewish people with impunity.

These are not "honest disagreements in policy". These are: Vote conservative (and President Bush has let me down here several times since I am a Constitutionalist and he tries to 'get along' with the left, but I fully support his foreign policies and can almost deal with the domestic ones) and have a chance to reduce gov't size/waste, restore freedoms, reduce taxes even more, and maintain economic/military superiority over the world and the socialists in the UN. Or vote left (DNC/Green) and lose more rights and submit to more UN "rule", deal with higher taxes, constrained resources, increased dependence on inept gov't programs, economic collapse, and face destruction at the hand of terrorists we no longer would be fighting. Right now we are fighting the worst evil we could ever face. The Wabaharrist sect of Islam (not even supported by more than 10% of Islam's population) is bent on the destruction of anything not Wabaharrists. This includes the West, East (Asia), Russia, and all non-Wabaharrist Muslims.

But from the left, we get no policy, just attacks and betrayal. I have tried to "debate" liberals on many occassions. Their immediate response is to conduct personal attacks, shout downs, threats, and physical violence. As I am an Army Officer, the last two are really ill advised to use against me.

But lest's talk about liberal "debaters". The Clintons "investigated" anyone who even appeared to disagree with them illegally using the IRS, BATF, and FBI. Kerry attacks detractors/questioners without ever answering a question. Then there's Sen Rockefeller's memo stating the Democrats must take and distort intelligence reports and military activities to attack and discredit the President. Yeah... nice "reasoned" debate.

Now let's look at Kerry's and the DNC's allies.

International ANSWER: Front for World Workers Party, American Communist Party, and several other National/Marxist Socialist fronts. Receives funding and support from the PLO (Arafat's paternal uncle, Al Hussaini was a devout NAZI, as was Saddam's paternal uncle, Al Tikrit), HAMAS, Hezzbola, and many other Al Queada related groups. Also receives moral, if not finacial support from North Korea and several Asian terrorist groups.

Move-On.org: Supports ANSWER and their allies. Active in subversion activities and aiding our enemies whenever possible. Meetings have been infiltrated several times by people at www.protestwarrior.com, but group's roots were evident in the "Brownshirts" (campus leftist radicals) prevalent in our universities. These were the same hate-filed radicals I dealt with at my university just continuing to spew hate and "blame America first" garbage. They just have the backing of a political party now. ANSWER and Move-On also advocate rebellion against the gov't and attacking military families/bases/etc here in the Continental US. They advocted this in front of the Capital in Feb 2002. They were joined by more than one Democrat congressman.

Indymedia.org: Front for Islamic Terrorist groups. Advocates killing of US soldiers/family, civilians working for the DOD, DOJ, FBI, and police. Based out of San Fransico and recieves support from ANSWER and Move-On.

American Communist party: Will not run a canidate this year in order to support Kerry.

All these groups get a lot of favorable mention at DemocrateUnderground.com

North Korean media (gov't run) states their endorsement of Kerry.

I have to wonder, with your immediate ad-homminum attacks against me, which group do you identify with?

How lovely of you.
