What Liberals Don't Get

1. The world is a dangerous place, filled with deadly people. Not just people who are misunderstood. Not just people who are poor. Not just people who have different "values."

2. Most nations in the world look out for themselves. We cringe at the idea of a 'global test' because we know who's going to be grading the test.

3. America is not the world's problem--America is the world's solution. The United States is the only great nation in the world whose people are willing to make real sacrifices of blood and treasure for world peace. If we don't do it, no one will. President Bush knows this. The American people know it. American liberals don't.

American liberals are making the same mistake in the war on terror that they made during the Cold War. They trust anti-American voices around the world more than they trust the American people.
