An open letter to progressive liberals [View All]

[whosinpower]

There are those that say us guys who sit on the left side in the realm of politics are "hurting" America because of our wacko ideals.

We can't seem to stay on track - trying to fix the whole world all at once.

There are those who say we should not compare Bush to Hitler.
We should not be anti-war.
We should not be pro Abortion.
We should not blame America.
We should not wish for peace.

WEll, if I wanted to talk like a republican, act like a republican, smell like a republican and sound like a republican - I WOULD VOTE REPUBLICAN!!!!

The comparisons of Bush to Hitler were examples of how fascism works. Hitler was fascist. And so is Bush.
We have not had a war of self defense in the last 50 years. And any aggressive act of INVASION AND OCCUPATION should not be tolerated. Iraq had nothing in regards to militaristic strength. It had nothing to do with Al Quaeda. The military can't fix this one. They cannot defeat terrorism with tools of death. It NEVER worked for Israel in all the years of fighting terrorism - why would anyone think that it would work for the US????? IT DOES NOT WORK. A military answer is defeat. You've lost when you dropped the first bomb over innocent people.
The right to abortion is entrenched with women's rights and who controls your own body. I will fight for that til my dying breath proudly. The hideous days of backalley coathanger obscenities need not come back thank you very much.
And if America deserves to be blamed for ills of the world that she wrought upon it - then so be it. Why is the rest of the world supposed to be responsible for itself and to itself but America is immune? Why is it that the rest of the world is supposed to upholdthe UN Charter - but the US doesn't have to? Why is the rest of the world supposed to recognise the Geneva Conventions - but America doesn't have to? Let's face it - if the rest of the world was as aggressive militarily and economically as America - what a pickle would we be in.
We should not wish for peace??!!??

I am a wacko liberal who feels that things like freedom mean more than the right for corporations to take over other nations services, cultures and resources.
I am a wacko liberal who DOES wish for peace - damn straight!
I am a wacko liberal who thinks that society should work to the betterment of everyone - not just a privilaged few.
I am a wacko liberal who thinks that healthcare should be accessable to everyone REGARDLESS of their age, race, gender, religion or income.
I am a wacko liberal who believes that every vote should be counted and accounted for with a paper trail.
I am a wacko liberal who thinks that government is accountable to us - THE PEOPLE - and not the other way around.
I am a wacko liberal that thinks that government is in place for the betterment of WE THE PEOPLE - not we the corporations.

And if you don't like the fact that I may protest - go Cheney yourself.
And if you don't like the fact that I am pro Abortion - go Cheney yourself.
And if you don't like the fact that I am PRO PEACE - REALLY - PLEASE - Go Cheney yourself.
