The Left Fights a Losing Battle

..."means no more democrats."

Please let it be true. The Democrats pose a far greater threat to our way of life than Osama, et al.

I loved this line. Krauthammer is such a great writer. He's right, the LEFT just doesn't get it - they never did! I think it's time to tell them to sit down and SHUT UP!!

Krauthammer was Rush's interview in the Limbaugh Letter this month. What a great interview. I still cannot believe this guy works for the Washington Post.

Hmmmm?? Just signed on 3 days ago huh?? Well, you can straddle the fence if you want, but "a double-minded man is unstable in all his ways"!!

"some people don't believe war solves problems"

Excuse me, but if you have someone who is trying to KILL YOU, and he is eliminated, doesn't that SOLVE THE PROBLEM??? H E L L O!!

If you just do homage and pay him money like Clinton did; you end up with 9-11. So, your analogy is erroneous.

How can he say that the Left is fighting a losing battle when their agenda continues to advance? We "Strict Constructionists" are now referred to as "people who think like you"...that's how Russ Feingold preceeds every sentence he uses while addressing me anyway. We have a Republican President and House, and the federal government continues to grow (unconstitutionally in my view...but then I'm one of those who "think like me"). The vast majority feel that the Constitution is a "living" document. That fact alone shows that the Left has won.

" . . . the left waits, forlorn and flailing, for the American street to rise. Meanwhile, the street, sporting American flags on its SUVs, carries on . . ."

Seems like it was only yesterday that we were waiting, forlorn and flailing, for the American street to rise, also. "Where's the OUTRAGE?!?" we screamed at every new revelation about the abhorent clinton administration. And we waited anxiously for the Sheeple to wake up and see the evil. Well,it seems the American Sheeple woke up just in time to see two large buildings annihilated, a pentagon-shaped building attacked, and a downed airplane in Pa.,full of brave Americans whose last words were not only powerful, but remarkably easy for the busiest of us to remember always: Let's Roll. The left will never win this battle because the American street awoke at the time for patriotism, not cynicism.

"...Exit strategy applies only to wars of choice.
You can choose to quit Vietnam or Somalia.
The war on radical Islam is a war of necessity.
Wars of necessity have no exit.
They must be won..."

I disagree that this is a war against ANY "religion" people can believe what they want it is their actions that cause us to oppose them.. (ie. ACTS of terrorism)
