"Left" and "Right" are economic philosophies. What has that got to do with support or opposition to the Afghan war?

And the progressives were right on Afghanistan too. They said that bombing the country back into the Stone Age is not the solution. That is what Dumbya and the Poodle did, with the result that Afghanistan is in a mess 5 years later, with the Taliban and the Islamic warlords running the show while our troops guard a farting Karzai in his mansion in Kabul.

Also, if the Poodle had not insisted on it (for whatever political reasons of his own, for sure), Dumbya and his thugs wouldn't even have bothered to go there, for Rummy said it was better to attack Iraq after 9/11/01 because Iraq had "better targets".

Finally, if any group sounds like mindless zombies, it is the regressive Dumbya worshippers like you, who would walk with Dumbya off a cliff if he asked you to, and who would vote for Dumbya even if he was caught kissing Karimov in the rose garden, or if he was caught killing a child. Shameless wicked fools!

>>No I don't actually, though sometimes they manage to sound that way. Am I to understand that because the protests weren't at top volume from the entire left of center spectrum, I should have inferred liberal support? Because for the life of me, I can't recall hearing any actual support, certainly not from any source calling itself 'progressive.'<<

Nadine -

I guess it all depends on where you draw the line marking The Left, and what sources you were listening to.
