That should point out to you the folly of labeling everyone who disagrees with you "the left."

Beg pardon, but I was specifically referring to LEFTISTS who BEFORE THE WTC ATTACKS were saying we should do something about the Taliban, NOT ALL WAR PROTESTORS. Try and follow the subject.

Wrong, dirtboy, the feminists are jumping up and down in support of this war, and they want to widen it. Check out the Fund for a Feminist Majority:

The Left is just as on board as the neoconservative Right in calling for escalating the overseas aspect of this war. The New Republic and the Weekly Standard -- united they stand. Tony Blair is the main international publicist for the war effort, and even old peaceniks like Todd Gitlin are echoing the Official Line. Good god, the smugness and belligerence that is pandemic since 9/11 is like anthrax of the mind. Wake up, conservatives, you're losing your republic even as you fight to preserve it. A "Patriot Act" that takes away basic liberties and paves the way for a national ID card -- Freepers should have been in the forefront of the effort to defeat that modern day edition of the Alien & Sedition Act. Why win the war against Osam bin Laden and lose the war against socialism and tyranny at home? Don't you people realize that when Hillary becomes President, she's going to use all these "anti-terrorist" measures against -- Y-O-U?
