Todd Akin: September 11 Attacks Proved Liberals Are Wrong About Everything
Submitted by Brian Tashman on Monday, 7/28/2014 12:25 pm
In the second part of his sad, self-pitying interview with WorldNetDaily editor Joseph Farah last week, Todd Akin argued that the September 11, 2001 attacks shocked liberals into silence, arguing that liberals dont believe there are really bad people in this world and dont think we need any defense in America. While he spent most of the interview criticizing Hillary Clinton for representing an accused rapist while working as a defense attorney for a legal aid group in Arkansas because apparently individuals suspected of committing crimes do not deserve representation in court he then complained that we almost live in a culture where people want to believe something even though it isnt true. The former Missouri congressman and failed Republican Senate candidate went on to say that 9/11 disproved everything liberals believe, leaving them shocked to find that one of their life premises was totally wrong. You can drive your Prius around with your yoga stickers and whatever, but these people still hate you, he said. Liberals want to believe, cant we all love each other, coexist? A coexist sticker didnt keep those planes from hitting the towers.

I'm not naive enough to believe that there AREN'T people out there who would love to drop an airplane on my head, but I don't walk around my day worrying about it.
Unfortunately, that 5-10 percent of the population that is incapable of loving each other and coexisting is ruining it for the rest of us.
