The Liberals out in California never cease to both amaze and amuse me. Im amazed at some of the issues they persue, Im amused when they come on the television and talk about it.
I was so amazed and amused when I saw a recent interview that I grabbed a pen and paper and wrote down the info. Ive misplaced that note so the name is lost but not the issue. I tried to google the lady's name using the title but couldnt find it. However, in a nutshell, what follows is my recollection of the interview.
If you google Berkeley California, you will find that most of the population there are both Liberals and throwbacks to the the peace and love generation of the 60's. One group, which seems to have the City Council in a choke hold, is the Peace and Justice Commission.
They introduced a resolution to the city council and intend to allow the current detainees at Guantanamo Bay, once released, to be allowed to take up residence in their little town.
On the surface, this may seem like a nice gesture from the peace loving people of this little California town, but that really isnt the case. The commission is out to prove that holding and detaining these people is actually a War Crime and providing them residency is a way to right the wrong that was done to them.
When interviewed, the spokeswoman, spent more time pushing the anti-war agenda than actually talking about the misfortune of these 'illegally' detained individuals. She came off sounding silly and thats why I said earlier that I was both amazed and amused.
If you are going to come on National television to push an agenda then you better have some credibility. Now there are some who may have thought she was great in the interview, but I think she sounded like an idiot an was the only one from that group willing to come on television. ( the rest didnt want to embarrass themselves)
THe fact that she would call all military members criminals, and refer to the detainees as victim just offends me to a level that I cant even describe. Im guessing she hasnt watched the video released by Iraqi insurgents where they cut off Nick Berg's head. Maybe she doesent know about the two Army Rangers killed in Iraq, then the bodies dragged through the street, then burned, then hung from a bridge. This woman doesnt have a damn clue about war crimes. She, and those like her have never had a weapon pointed and fired in thier direction much less had to look down a barrel and take a life. War crimes- I can tell you stories about what these people did over there that would keep you awake at night in a cold sweat.
Im just lost for a way to close this out .
Wake up America !
