Sorry, I'm not a "liberal" but even I see how asinine that statement is.

LIberals are the ones who apologize and make excuses for islamic terrorism. Liberals are the ones that ask us to understand why terrorists do what they do. Of course it's not all, but it does come from liberals.

I am the farthest thing from a liberal, but I can see why a bunch of people who have had their land taken from them and then systematically terrorized by U.S. affiliation/support with/of Israel and policy towards the middle east in general might be cheezed off.

That doesn't excuse what they have done. But there are two sides to every story.

And I have never heard one liberal that I know defend terrorist acts.

The Antiwar Republican - by Scott Horton

Look,

Conservatives are anti war, that must mean they are terrorist sympathizers. I knew CONSERVATIVES had feelings like that. Conservatives apologize for terrorists, hell the Bush administration loaded up Osama Bin Ladens family, and flew them out of the country on 9/11.

See, I can make stupid, over generalized statements to, and they hold about as much water as yours do.

ya, pgh is making no kinda sense.

is his next assertion that women are hypocrites because they comprise about half of dem voters, and well dem voters are for islamic terrorism? since these women, being dems, and for islamic terrorism are not appalled by the treatment of women by muslims then they must be... hypocrites.

you know because all women, like the gays, and dems think alike.

such a fail in logic.

We turn out to have been right on this score.

How's that plan to get out of Afghanistan working?

Why do so many on the right confuse liberals supporting Muslim's right to the free exercise of their religion to mean that liberals support the positions and dogma of Islam and the actions of fundamentalist Muslims?

Does Qaddafi have WMDs or Europe's oil?

Right, the OP makes ridiculous generalizations about a group he doesn't really understand. "Gays" are not a monolithic group, even if the majority vote Democrat, that doesn't mean alot for their views of Muslims, let alone, the use of violence to solve social and political issues (which is what the OP was advocating).
