technolitics.com § What You Didn’t Know About The War

‘double standard’

Amidst the dull uproar over the veiled threats from RevolutionMuslim.com, I can’t help but agree with one point the controversial site made: They didn’t start the wars, we, America, did. This is tragic and unconscionable for a society that so often uses life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness as defenses. The question then remains, how do we transform our outrage into positive political action? I imagine contacting our representatives is a start, as is supporting anti-war organizations.

Especially when you see scenes like these. That the responsible parties for our economic disaster continue to kick people out of their homes and continue to show no compassion despite owing their existence to your and my tax dollars is heinous. I’m usually a fan of tolerance, but living with this kind of selective socialism seems un-American.
