For those who already hate us, that’s a no-brainer: invade, hate America; don’t invade, hate America.

I see this Syrian proposal as a not-so-covert attempt to exloit yet once again the Democratic take-over of Congress, which is fine. What would also be fine–and I’m sure this political rhetoric is already in the works–is publicizing the fact that the Pelosicrats have always been covertly on the side of the terrorists.

We haven’t even begun to witness the civil war that’s going to break out if the Democrats start going after the WOT in the process of going after the Bush administration. Leahy is already this morning in the news talking about getting secret documents from the Bush administration about how it’s defending the country. These people don’t yet have a clue how vulnerable they are to political damnation if they systematically pursue this course.

In the meantime, I say “bravo” to anti-American middle-eastern attempts to “aid” the Democrats publicly in their worthy pursuit of what “the American people deserve to know,” as Leahy puts it.

Yeah, the American people deserve to know how the party that now controls Congress is one of America’s enemies.

One could make the argument that the US talked to the Soviet Union and if we could talk to the “Evil Empire,” we surely could talk to lesser ones such as Syria, Iran, DPRK. The USSR though was on an even keel (or so it seemed) with the US when it came to global political and economic influence, thus forcing us to deal with them as seeming equals.

This is not the case though with the 3 above named countries. We should publically declare that the US does not talk to terrorist sponsoring states who also so profoundly abuse their own people and their freedoms. It is far better in the long run to ostracize them and declare them illegitimate than it is to legitimize them by giving them a seat at the table with the USA.
