THE AMERICAN POLITICAL LEFT & U.S. NATIONAL SECURITY: LIBERAL DEMOCRATS, IN THEIR DETERMINED DRIVE
TO REGAIN CONTROL OF THE U.S. NATIONAL GOVERNMENT, WOULD WILLINGLY SACRIFICE AMERICA'S DEFENSES AGAINST
TERRORIST ATTACK -- THE ACTIVITIES OF DEMOCRATIC PARTY POLITICAL OPPORTUNISTS & THEIR ALLIES IN THE MEDIA
AID & ABET AMERICA'S DEADLY ENEMY IN THE GLOBAL ISLAMIST JIHAD BEING WAGED AGAINST OUR NATION &
WESTERN CIVILIZATION -- GIVING AID & COMFORT TO THE ENEMY IN THE FOURTH WORLD WAR
FULL STORY:
In contrast to recent revelations of national security leaks occurring
within the CIA, consider the absurdly trivial and wholly unsubstantiated
charges that ultimately drove House Majority Leader Tom Delay from office.
After presenting a vapid case before numerous grand juries who could find
absolutely no fault with Delay, Prosecutor Ronnie Earl, a Democrat, finally
landed one that was willing to hand down an indictment for violation of laws
that did not exist at the time that Delay was accused of violating them.
Despite this, Delay has since faced relentless attacks from the Liberal
political machine, abetted by the Leftist media, insisting that he be
presumed guilty until proven innocent.
Lewis I. “Scooter” Libby was similarly hounded from his post as Chief of
Staff to Vice-president Dick Cheney. Yet nobody officially claims that Libby
might have wrongfully divulged the identity of Liberal political hack and
CIA employee Valerie Plame, but, rather, that, during nearly two years of
questioning by Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald, Libby apparently got
his facts jumbled to no significant or pertinent degree. Nevertheless,
Fitzgerald pressed for indictments, which he now pursues with obsessive
determination.
Interestingly, during the past few weeks, Fitzgerald himself was forced to
“correct” bogus statements that he had made in relation to the case. Yet,
this blatant irony generated no groundswell of double talking and
overzealous prosecuting attorneys, demanding that Fitzgerald ought to recuse
himself from further involvement on the case, or perhaps squander his life
savings attempting to prove his innocence in an effort to forestall an
extended stay in prison.
More significantly, in neither of these cases could it be said that the
lives and security of the American people faced even a remote threat of
being compromised. Meanwhile, the Liberal political/media cabal, seeking to
reestablish political dominance in America, has, on multiple occasions, been
caught engaging in illicit behavior that goes to the very heart of America’s
ability to shield its citizens from terrorist activity.
Is it actually possible that those on the political Left, in their consuming quest for
power, would willingly sacrifice the nation’s defenses against terrorist
attack? Perhaps, in consideration of the facts, it would be more appropriate
to ask if their consistent actions could be construed as anything else.
The latest revelation, that Mary McCarthy has been leaking top-secret
information from within the Inspector General’s office of the CIA,
illustrates how insidious the problem has become. It is noteworthy that
McCarthy’s base of operations resided within the very institution charged
with ensuring CIA integrity against subversive activity. Where better to
undermine serious investigation of seditious activity than on the inside of
the investigative body itself?
Yet McCarthy’s case is by no means an aberration. Who can forget the
spectacle known as the “9-11 Commission,” ostensibly established for the
expressed purpose of identifying failures within the United States
government that left the nation vulnerable to that attack?
Jamie Gorelick, the individual most singularly responsible for those lapses,
somehow wormed her way onto the Commission. And, were it not for the dogged
bluntness of former Attorney General John Ashcroft, who publicly exposed her
complicity in America’s security breakdown, Gorelick might have accomplished
what appeared to be her primary mission on that panel, which was to deflect
serious scrutiny from the Clintons.
Simultaneously, former National Security Advisor Sandy Berger filled the
role of a “field operative” within this Liberal “insurgency,” destroying
crucial documents at the National Archives that might have proven
incriminating to the late Clinton administration. Again, the first order of
business seems to have been political “damage control,” with the fate of the
nation being comparatively unimportant.
Meanwhile, Liberals have been busy on Capitol Hill, and on the nightly news,
continuing to minimize America’s successes in the terror war, while
magnifying any possible wrongdoing by American troops. Lately, they advanced
their sordid cause by finding a tiny handful of disgruntled military
retirees who are willing to publicly disparage Defense Secretary Donald
Rumsfeld.
In the aftermath of the Delay indictment, and fueled by the malfeasance of
California Republican Duke Cunningham, House Minority leader Nancy Pelosi
invoked her broad brush and jubilantly painted Congressional Republicans as
embodying a “culture of corruption.”
Meanwhile, actions of Democrats have shown that, for some time, the Democratic Party
embraces nothing less than a culture of sedition. In the past few days, Rush
Limbaugh upgraded their status to a “culture of treason.” That shoe fits.
It might appear that some culpability for the present situation lies with
President Bush. Under the auspices of his misbegotten “new tone,” he allowed
far too many appointees from the Clinton administration to retain their
offices and continue their corrosive activity from within the halls of
power.
But who could blame him for failing to anticipate the depths of treachery to
which the Democrats were willing to sink in their pursuit of political power?
Nevertheless, with each passing day, the Democrats prove their willingness to corrupt
the system in perpetual service to their sordid cause.
The damage they have inflicted is grave, and the sooner their likes are
broomed from critical positions, the better the American nation will fare. It is a
hard-learned and bitter lesson that real America should never forget.
