Why do some fear-mongers say Liberals have an alliance with radical Islam?
I have seen it all over the 'Liberal' media, and from people like David Horowitz. And the sad thing is, there are some idiots who believe that Liberals like us actually have an alliance with people who practice an intolerant and false form of Islam. People like Horowitz seem to forget that:

It was a certain member of the Christian Right who had a business deal with a certain dictator that had a business deal with Al Qaeda.

Another member of the Christian Right was connected to Wally Hilliard, who was not only caught with heroin, which can be used to fund terror, but also has trained two of the 9/11 Hijackers.

It is Bush who is covering up for the Saudis.

Dick Cheney had business deals with Iraq, Iran, and Libya while he was in Halliburton.

So, who really has the alliance with the likes of Al Qaeda, Liberals or Neo-Cons?

I think we all know the answer.

1. Because the wrong wing are projecting prevaricators.
That is propaganda that resonates with the ignorant, fear motivated collective unwashed, so the cons cynically use it, knowing all the while the irony of that use.

2. David Horowitz is a hack of the higest order
Many of the Christian right and neocons like Horowitz think that anyone who doesnt regard all Palestinians as scum are in league with them.

3. Sigh.
Those are words that smack of desperation. The Reich wing is running on empty, and this is the best they can come up with--that LIBS have an alliance with radical Islam.

7. Oh, yes, it was the liberals, especially the feminists, who
were rooting for the Taliban after they took over Afghanistan. :eyes:
