#1 The Left hates the West. It's that simple. Every once in a while a lefty realizes this and drifts away from a self-hating ideology that leads it to embrace every nutbag dictator who claims to be anti-colonialist or whatever.

Interesting that his experience in NYC with Rudy was a turning point for him. I hear that a lot.

#2 Some one once mentioned that the Left expected Western civilisation to willingly decline and fade away after the Cold War. Since that has not happened, especially after 2001, the Left has become apoplectic.

#3 Fred, thanks for posting this. I could have written something very similar to what Mr Swirsky wrote (except for the Giuliani part....hey, I grew up in Phoenix!)

Maybe I should just print it out and pass it out to some of my friends with a "What he said!" post-it on top, right after I put a W sticker on the ol' Subaru.... ;)

#4 The Left................

more concerned with winning the debate than doing the right thing since July 14, 1789.
