In an interview with KABC radio last week, Rep. Janice Hahn (D-CA) offered the liberal world view of globalism before nationalism last week during an interview about the on-going crisis in Iraq. Hahn said she was "kind of uncomfortable" with the concept that the United States could claim any moral authority in using military action.
"I'm kind of uncomfortable with, you know, with the United States feeling that we do have some moral authority to go into these other countries and use military power to solve problems," the California lawmaker said.
Hahn also invoked the United Nations as a basis for this philosophy.
"I was part of D-Day celebration last, a couple weeks ago in Normandy and it was impressed again after World War II we're going to set up the United Nations and from this day forward we were supposed to really look at solving conflict internationally through diplomacy," Hahn continued. "So I don't know where we have a gotten this idea that we have that moral authority go in and attack country they've been attacked us and I'm uncomfortable with that."

Her nude...? Ugh, I wouldn’t want to see that...
Drop her and other liberals into Iraq and see how long their feel good attitude gets them.
