Liberal 'base' emboldens Republicans

"Granted but we are talking absent those things."

This constitutes a logical fallacy concerning Islam. Subjugation or murder ... why does this sound so familiar in the context of Muslim belief? Could it be that, since the very definition of "Islam" is "submission," and that since the Koran admonishes believers to kill all nonbelievers, in more than just a few instances, that subjugation or murder is the foundation of the religion, as it relates to the world outside of Islam, referred to as "Dar es Harb" or the world of war? What Muslim groups do not follow these "philosophies?" For that matter, what Nazi groups do not?

[tkathy]

I know some life long democrats who are very unhappy with the democrat party. They are all socially moderate also, so a big tent philosophy would appeal to them.

Look up some Eugenics groups for your answers on Nazi's.

What Muslim groups do not follow these "philosophies?"

Just off the top of my head the Druze are a sect of Islam that does not.

[Recovering_Democrat]

Unfortunately, many here on FR are willing to abandon the Republicans to "teach them a lesson" and put Democrats in charge of national security.

Big mistake.

[RegulatorCountry]

Druze: Religious community generally considered to be Muslim but whose practices also contain elements of Christianity and paganism.

A Democratic Party that took seriously the war against Islamism would do a better job of defeating it than the current administration. Thats because Republicans wouldn't fight you tooth and nail.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

That would be them.

Democrats: The Party of 'Cut N Paste'. (From the Republican Playbook).

Gee, I wonder if the DUcks will be posting this article over there?...lol.

They are the very ones that the author is saying are too stupid to direct the RAT party platform.

Every chance I get, I try to direct moderate Dem's to go to the DUck room and read the twaddle they spew, and let them know that is who/what is in charge of the RAT party now.

Given time, the DUcks will erode the RAT party to under 30%, and the more they lose, the nuttier they get...lol.

[Sir Francis Dashwood]

Funny how some of the RINO types are becoming the p.c. Gestapo and try silencing dissent from the religious conservatives or anyone else that does not bend their knee in acquiescence...

[Sir Francis Dashwood]

Unfortunately, many here on FR are willing to abandon the Republicans to "teach them a lesson" and put Democrats in charge of national security.

Likewise there are so-called Republicans who are willing to piss on the religious conservatives who helped them win elections so they can kiss the asses of liberal sacred cows...

May I suggest adopting Dick Devos, GOP candidate for governor in Michigan? Folks here are furious with our current glamour girl, Jenny "Grandstand" Granholm. IMO she is going to go down in flames. She only won last time because of "Engler-fatigue." The state's become an economic basket case and she has done nothing to make the state more business friendly. Devos's ads have really been hitting the mark. This is going to be a sleeper race that should in fact be a pubbie pickup.

What's more, if conservatives turn out in force, we could even unseat Sen Debbie "Dangerously Incompetitent" Stabinow. Nobody is talking about this now, but Mike Bouchard may pickup a Michigan senate seat for the pubbies.

The pic here is not a joke or parody: she actually stood on the floor of the Senate without a clue that the image could boomerang back on her

[FairOpinion]

That's not what the article is about.

Suggest reading it.

[FairOpinion]

Well, looks like you were right.
These pictures prove it.

My sister is no less committed to civil rights than before. But she believes that not being murdered by Islamist terrorists is also an important civil right. She is not sure that the Democratic Party completely agrees with her.

Hit the nail on the head here...and even when they're told this is their problem the dems chose to place gaining power over protecting Americans.

Interesting sidebar on this person, one of many Jews that are disillusioned with the Democratic party but not quite ready to make the break - moving closer all the time, though:

"DEMOCRATIC PARTY NEEDS ANGRY LIEBERMANIACS
By Paul Kujawsky"
[excerpt]
Many Jewish Democrats are wondering, If there’s no room in the Democratic Party for Joe Lieberman, what am I doing here? The Republican Jewish Coalition is ready with its answer. It has launched a nation-wide ad campaign that argues, "What was once the radical Left—with its antipathy toward Israel, its indifference to anti-Semitism, and its desire to appease terrorists instead of fighting them—is now emerging as part of the mainstream in the Democratic Party." It’s designed to make Jewish Democrats ask, "Is this the political party I want to be part of?"

The answer remains yes. Don’t give up.

The west is as much at war with Islam today as it was over the past 13 centuries. From Tours to the fall of Constantinople to Vienna to the current moslem immigrant invasion of Europe and the US, they mean to conquer us and impose Sharia. Islam is a threat that must be excised from our society.

[lentulusgracchus]

Are we to assume that Nazism and communism would be perfectly acceptable to you, absent murder and subjugation?

The short answer is, yes.

What do you think socialism is? "Communism with a human face."

And don't forget, German National Socialism was a Left movement that walked a nationalist walk, to get all-important support from former Army officers. The animosity between Nazis and Communists was an ideological purity contest, the political equivalent of a brother fight. That's why it was so nasty: they were competitors, not enemies.

If those pics don't scare the bejeebers into you about islam being the world's enemy, nothing will. Worked for me, F.
