Democrats, cowardice, lies, defeat

Tears for the passage of time

By John Burtis Sunday, October 14, 2007

Like many, I have been struck by the images contained in Ken Burns’
The War. But I am most disturbed by the contrasts found in our
pursuit of a multi-theatre war to victory then and the defeatism and
rancor rampant in our current simpering left, as we try pursue a far
less globally destructive but just as vitally important a conflict
against a similarly determined fascist foe today.

In early 1945, our troops began to liberate elements of the
concentration camp system, horrible places like Dachau and
Mauthausen, where unburied bodies numbered in the tens of thousands
and the crematoria were still warm, and where we were met by its
survivors, who put up posters welcoming our boys to those dreadful
compounds.

Today we have an openly anti-Semitic, former US president, Jimmy
Carter, who travels the world denouncing America and Israel at every
available turn, while publicly praising the sworn enemies of true
democracy and freedom, while eagerly rubbing elbows with the likes of
murderers like Yasser Arafat and the boyos from the Assad family.

American POWs, survivors of the horrific Japanese camp system in the
Phillippines, China, and in Japan, were greeted by huge flags hung
from the Golden Gate Bridge as they returned to the US after years of
abhorrent captivity, and as they left the ships they often kissed the
ground in San Francisco and Oakland.

Today, American servicemen, United States Marines, have been denied
entry into the Oakland airport terminal out of `security’ concerns by
the local `liberal’ government.

During World War II, Alameda was one of our largest naval bases and
the ships involved in the famous Doolittle Raid, including the
aircraft carrier USS Hornet, departed with its cargo of B-25 bombers
from this base.

Today, San Francisco bans Junior ROTC and refused to accept the
battleship USS Iowa as a historic museum dedicated to our fighting
men and women, whose deaths provided the progressive bay area
governments’ ability to thumb their noses at our military today.

We worked with our allies, including Soviet Russia, to insure a final
victory, remaining true to the cause, despite valid concerns about a
post-war Eastern Europe under Soviet occupation while understanding
that a world under Nazism was a far greater danger to our survival.

Recently a Democrat controlled congressional panel passed one more
resolution condemning the Turkish government, one of our staunchest
progressive Muslim allies in the war on terror, for their massacre of
the Armenians some hundred years ago, in order to further hobble the
war against those who still murder our innocents and our servicemen.

The Turks, in righteous indignation at this most unkind of cuts
during the war on terror, have withdrawn their ambassador.

During World War II, General Douglas MacArthur had black troops to
fight in direct combat roles in the Southwest Pacific, unlike their
use in the European theatre as engineers, truck drivers, or as
stewards in the US Navy.

Today, the Democrat Party is still fighting on the static old static
class warfare front and whose tactics are never repudiated by the
major Democrat presidential players.

During The War we fought against Hitler and the Big Lie, which
reached unheard of heights under the aegis of Joseph Goebbels, who
both exclaimed that if it was big enough and told often enough that
folks would come to believe it.

Today, US Senators Harry Reid, Dick Durbin, Tom Harkin, Hillary
Clinton, and the failed general and nonsensical talk show visitor,
Wes Clark, among other notable Democrats and turncoat Republicans,
contrived their own Big Lie about Rush Limbaugh and his `phony
soldiers’ remark. Sadly, he spoke about an actual phony soldier,
Jesse Macbeth, while these intemperate, vituperative, and
prevaricating hucksters concocted a lie from whole cloth about his
supposed denigration of real soldiers who had served in Iraq.

Today’s Democrats have set themselves on a path where bad news for
America, the continuing deaths of our citizens and soldiers, and the
hobbling of righteous wars against those who kill and maim us, and
the continuing diminution of our current president, is good news for
them.

America, in its hubris, is falling apart and we have long passed the
time when the center had any final chance of holding.

Yes, we have come a long way from the courage necessary to win World
War II against two of the most vicious international enemies we have
ever faced.

Today, against barbaric Muslim extremists who are plotting to kill us
all, the Democrats are using every possible means to bring our
country defeat.

I weep for the passage of time and for all the lives lost at
Guadalcanal, the Hurtgen Forest, Iwo Jima, Monte Cassino, Saipan,
Okinawa, St. Lo, and in all those thousand little places that will
forever be America; places where the Democrats are erasing our
memories of victory and substituting an acceptance of defeat and
cowardice.

They are purposefully forgetting that their ability to throw our
nation way was given to them by the thousands of our boys who rest in
the Punch Bowl and at Arlington, on hundreds of Pacific islands, and
in the small town cemeteries where my parents, both WWII veterans,
lie today.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
