On Syria And Shocking Ignorance

Benn listening to the progressive left and liberals react to Trump's correct decision to pull out.

It's, um, been interesting if not predictable.

It's mighty astonishing to hear the left actually make the case for staying in Syria. In doing so, they take the neocon position on war. The strain of conservatism that drove their hate for Bush II.

The anti-war left spring into action when a Republican is in power and are silent when it is a Democrat. Nay a word was said of Obama's wars.

These are not principles at play. It's empty partisan sophistry.

They don't want to stay in Syria for any noble reason. They're just against it because Trump.

Yes. Both sides can be hypocritical when it comes to politics and war in particular, but the progressive left are on another level of hypocrisy in my view.

Trump:

"Does the USA want to be the Policeman of the Middle East, getting NOTHING but spending precious lives and trillions of dollars protecting others who, in almost all cases, do not appreciate what we are doing?" Trump tweeted. "Do we want to be there forever? Time for others to finally fight....."

He's right.

With two measures (criminal justice and Syria), Trump has vaulted himself into the discussion of 'Is he the most libertarian President ever. 

At this point I'm pretty sure that if Trump were to announce  he intends to resign the Democrats would file a lawsuit to prevent him from leaving office as liberal activist judges issue injunction against it. 

The left believed once Kavanaugh (right. That wasn't a shameless spectacle) was sworn in it would spell the end of abortion and gay rights. His first order was to side against defunding Planned Parenthood - which is an awful (progressive) name by the way if you think of it.

And let's remember that when Literal Hitler (Trump. The man who was supposed to start a nuclear holocaust. The guy Hilary and others warned were frightened to have his 'finger on the button' (Hilary the war mongrel herself lacks self-awareness because hubris blinds her) and Krugman said would lead America into a financial holocaust (they sure love that word, eh?) appointed Jeff 'Literal Racist' Sessions, the left went nuts. And then, when Sessions left office, they protested against his removal!

Are people paying any attention?

Maybe they should:



I especially like the kid who voted for Hillary even after admitting he didn't follow politics closely or the girl who voted 'D' without much thought.

Cult of the illiterate ignorant.

Prove me otherwise.
