Democrats Define Truth As Whatever Attacks America

Not long ago the Democrats worked feverishly to destroy 254 American heroes from across the political spectrum who offered their factually supported, firsthand eyewitness testimony about John Kerry's very odd (to say the least) four month aborted tour of duty in Vietnam. Compare and contrast this with the unquestioning hero status being given to the rather nuts Cindy Sheehan whose statements are utterly contradicted by her own testimony after her first meeting with the President (a meeting the leftist liars in the Old Media try to keep hidden from the public), whose every word has been repudiated by the people who know her best (including her own parents and her husband) and whose rhetoric borders on (and its from the other side of the border) insanity.

Why the different treatment? Simple. To the Democrat truth is defined not by fact, evidence and logic but only by the degree to which someone hates America. If someone is spewing anti-American hate that makes them, de facto, truth tellers.

So it is that, while everyone knows Michael Moore's movie was a dishonest attempt to spin reality in order to portray outright lies as the truth the Democrat leadership gave it a standing ovation and Moore himself a seat of honor at their convention because, Moore's movie being viciously anti-American made it worthy of applause and honors.

This is why when Newsweek found the chance to spread a lie about American troops -- that they'd flushed Korans down the toilet at Gitmo -- they ran with it despite the fact that not only was it not supported by the facts and evidence but the story is quite literally impossible. How, exactly, does one get an entire book to go down a tiny drainpipe? But it doesn't matter to the far-leftists in the Old Media that the story is impossible, the fact that it was anti-American made it true.

This, too, is why the Managing Editor of CBS News supposedly couldn't recognize forged documents or just wasn't experienced enough to know that a mentally disturbed Democratic party partisan with multiple direct ties to the highest levels of the Kerry campaign wasn't an "unimpeachable source." Of course he know. But the fact that the forged documents and the mentally ill partisan hated America's Commander-in-Chief and might help elect a leftist appeaser of terror made the story true.

Meanwhile, as Dan Rather is caught using forged documents and CNN is nailed for engaging in a decade-long fraud in covering for Saddam Hussein's atrocities and Newsweek runs bogus stories about Korans and Howell Raines and Jayson Blair and Maureen Dowd are nailed in lie after lie after lie the Democrat swears that it is Fox News that is made up of "lying liars" because they refuse to lie and attack America like the "truth-tellers" at the Old Media.

And it is why the Democrats' second most powerful Senator, Dick Durbin, took to the floor of the United States Senate and read into the Congressional record (and for the benefit of Al Jazeera) the most vicious of slanders against American troops -- comparing them to the most heinous regimes in human history -- based on a single e-mail he received from someone claiming to be with the FBI, an e-mail that, to this day, Durbin refuses to show to anyone. The story, of course, turned out to be yet another Democratic Party lie but that doesn't matter to the left. By attacking America it was, de facto, true.

And this is why the Democrats care not one bit that Air America is only on the air because they stole millions of dollars from needy children. That kind of theft is a-okay so long as it is to help promote people whose mission is to attack America at all turns.

Cindy Sheehan is a nut and a liar. He rhetoric is something only the biggest haters of freedom and democracy could buy into. Yet there is John Edwards' wife, and the leftist radio talk show hosts and Wolf Blitzer and Maureen Dowd, et al, offering her the highest praise and support because, to the Democrat, truth and honor are defined by a single trait: the degree to which one hates America.
