The “politics of treason” – good article by Buzz:
| Quote: | “Democrats ‘Groundhog Day!’” – by Lt. Col. Robert “Buzz” Patterson (2/2/05)
Democrats’ Groundhog Day! “In a fashion reminiscent of Genghis Khan…” In the 1993 movie, Groundhog Day, comedian Bill Murray plays Phil Connors, a frustrated, cynical weatherman who is forced to repeat the same day over and over again until he becomes a better person. He awakens day after miserable day, bitter about his assignment to cover Punxsutawney Phil, discovering that it's Groundhog Day again.

The neighbors across the border in Syria, Iran, and Saudi Arabia are seeing the shadow of democracy and human rights chipping away slowly and surely at the veneer of their repressive and despotic regimes.
Rodents, terrorists, and tyrants are seeing shadows, it's the liberals who can't or won't.
In my recent book, “Reckless Disregard: How Liberal Democrats Undercut Our Military, Endanger Our Soldiers, and Jeopardize Our Security,” I dedicate two chapters to what I term the "politics of treason," American politicians taking political discourse and dissent over the line and onto the battlefield. Politicians so bent on power and ego that aiding and abetting the enemy, thereby undermining our troops, are acceptable in the course of events. …
