With Election Day fast approaching, liberals are being forced to face the fact that for them the notion of "truth" is poisonous.
The movement once led by a man who asked "what the meaning of 'is' is" now is telling American voters that they are the people who will really be tough against the terrorists.
The problem of course is that this is not true, and anti-war liberals know this isn't true, but the real truth is something they can't own up to. Running TV commercials stressing your desire to "Cut and Run to Okinawa" doesn't exactly instill confidence with the American electorate at a time when wild-eyed Islamic terrorists want to destroy our nation and kill our people.
Liberals are also trying to tell voters that they are the ones who will uphold morality and traditional values in the wake of the Mark Foley congressional sex scandal.
Well that's not true either, and American traditionalists who have endured a decade of ridicule from Ivory Tower liberals mocking their knuckle-dragging, outdated and outmoded social conservatism know better. Have you seen those bumper stickers that say "The Religious Right is Neither"? Well, guess what, they're on cars owned by – yep, LIBERALS.
The truth: Like garlic to a vampire
I'm currently on a nationwide promo tour for the new book "American Mourning" that I've co-authored with my friend and veteran journalist Catherine Moy.
"American Mourning: A Story of Two Families Touched By War, Torn By Beliefs" details the tragic loss of two fine American soldiers in Iraq and how the reactions of their families – the Sheehans and the Johnsons – were so very different.
As reported by WorldNetDaily, Cindy Sheehan's supporters are furious that this book has been published, and they are doing everything they can to stop this message from being heard by the American public.
The reason they are so upset is very simple: This book tells the truth (both the good and the bad) about Cindy Sheehan, and liberal anti-war activists cannot handle the truth. It's like garlic to a vampire, and they are recoiling in disgust and horror.
But is this really surprising? After all, Cindy Sheehan was the woman who launched a nationwide campaign attacking President Bush for not meeting with her.
Umm, wait a second, the truth is that Sheehan and Bush had already had a private meeting together several months before Sheehan started stalking the president in Crawford. The media rarely mentioned that Sheehan's protest was based on something that wasn't even truthtful, but that's probably because many journalists have the same "garlic to a vampire" problem with the truth themselves.
Ready, aim, fire at the purveyors of truth
When Catherine Moy and I decided to write a book contrasting the differences in how two American families dealt with the loss of their child in the war on terrorism, we were determined to report a story that the mainstream media had chosen to ignore.
For two years, Cindy Sheehan had the opportunity to tell her story unchallenged. Maureen Dowd wrote an op-ed for the New York Times in which she said Sheehan's "moral authority" was "absolute."
Now it was time to tell the rest of the story, but that isn't sitting well with the liberal anti-war crowd. Unable to contradict the truths we have revealed in "American Mourning," Cindy Sheehan's legal team is trying to keep media outlets from discussing the story. Sheehan's allies in the anti-war movement have resorted to an all out campaign to discredit Catherine Moy and myself.
On liberal websites they've called Catherine and I a "b----" (as in rhymes with witch) dozens upon dozens of times. That was one of the nicest things they've said about me.
One liberal critic said we had no right to tell the truth about Cindy Sheehan, seeing as how Catherine Moy likes to sneak foot-long hoagies to eat when people aren't looking, and that I liked to snort lines of cocaine off of Ann Coulter's Adam's apple. I'm not joking; this is how far off the deep end these people have gone.
Another liberal commentator called me "an ignorant slut," which contradicted the thoughts by another person who speculated that Catherine and I "haven't gotten any and that is why [we've] lashed out at Cindy the way [we] have."
Thoughtful liberals as they are had a fix for this problem, too. "Perhaps a 'visitation' day at an all-male prison would be just OK for these imbeciles?"
This is how liberals respond when forced to ingest the truth. They simply cannot handle it, so wrapped up they are in their concocted reality where there is no right or wrong, and where the meaning of "is" can't be defined.
As my co-author Catherine Moy said to Alan Colmes earlier this week, "the truth is truth. It's not conservative; it's not liberal; it's the truth. Some people can't handle it."
But what does she know? She's just an ignorant slut after all.
Melanie is one the VERY FEW things I miss about CA. She nails the commielibtards with their own words, which is the most powerful weapon that can be used.

Be thankful. Those snarling Libs are going to help you sell a million extra copies.
Al Gore is a great example of the effects of counter culture druggie mentality. With AlGore, as with many substance abusers, personal truth is "relative". It has become a casualty of reverse-twist logic that is the direct descendant of the counter culture ideology of the 1970's.
The surrealism of the counter culture has become a thought process - a way of viewing reality that is the mantra for current grass roots liberals.
For the left, it's paramount to be in lock-step sync with fellow mind-numbed robots in spite of any evidence to the contraty. Infact, they define courage as defeating the fear that stems from ignoring reality at ones own peril.
What, to liberals is the truth?
Pontius pilate would have been a great democrat.
