I know...I see him on Newswatch on Fox on Saturday nights...and most of the time he makes me mad.

This is a good column.

This is the doctrine of the privileged and the pampered. It is salvation on the cheap. It makes the protestors feel good, even righteous, but does nothing to solve the problem, which isn’t the United States, but a very real enemy that intends to kill us.

WOW!! Did Cal Thomas ever hit a grand slam home run with this article, especially with the despicable Hanoi Jane, Sarandon and Jackson.

Thank you Mr. Thomas.

I have some of these hippie-elder types in my family. My brother tried to start an argument on Sunday but I stopped him with 'do you feel any compassion for the millions of innocent people that were slaughtered after we pulled out of Vietnam because the Democrats cut off funding'? No answer. Next question-'will you feel any responsibility for the tens of thousands that will likely be slaughtered if we leave Iraq before it's stabilized'? No answer.

Great column by Cal Thomas! He sure has the anti-war crowd pegged.

"I'm Sorry" is the theme song for this bunch, but if they would have their way, many won't be left to sing it.

AMAZINGLY accurate!!!!!!!...Describes the liberal mind set to a "T"!!!...... A thoughtful person could read this and honestly question HIMSELF.....A liberal will read this and IMEDIATELY go into attack mode...for to think about it and question himself would devastate his being because deep in his brain..the truth is there...too painful to visit...

Brilliant article! Cal puts into words all the same observations we have been making about the folks who take no responsibility for their actions, because they "believe" they are doing the right thing!

*****

This is the sunset of the “Age of Aquarius.” Yesterday, when they were young, they were the pampered generation that eschewed self-control for self-indulgence. They were (and are) so vain; they probably thought the world was about them. They were the redeeming generation that would save their parents from their sins by ending war, curing racism and cleaning the air and water. Their failure has long been obvious to all but them. To them, intentions, not success, are paramount. Because they believe their intentions are noble, they absolve themselves from the negative consequences of their actions.

"...'do you feel any compassion for the millions of innocent people that were slaughtered after we pulled out of Vietnam...?"

Um, no. No they don't, and many are only learning about it now. At the time they weren't paying attention because they'd stomped their feet, threw a tantrum, and the spoiled brats got their way.

That's all that mattered.

Cal is my man. If you watch him on FoxNews.....that is a man who knows how to have a good time.

He's rather wise.
