(62,325 posts)supporters also for daring to WANT FACTS and for suspecting that we have war mongers in this country, mostly on the Right, see McCain and Fox these days eg, of whom we need to be very, very careful. They will ANY excuse to start another war, we said, and we were called many things, 'Traitors', 'Terror Supporters', 'Saddam Lovers'. But that was coming from the Right.
It is shameful to see these same, very familiar, epithets and phrases aimed once again Liberals, only this time on DU.

Ten years from now, liberals will be proven right again. Which is why Liberals are always the targets of these propaganda tactics.
Perhaps you explain why you consider liberals to be 'useful idiots' rather than using old Iraq War supporters talking points, this is a Democratic Forum where many of us remember these talking points well.
