Blind Optimism

Reader comment on item: Europe's Future, Newsweek's Fantasy

Submitted by Logicon (United States), Jul 23, 2009 at 09:52

That is the problem with people on the left. They all live in a fantasy world where they all float around in beautiful colored balloons with stupid grins on their faces, all the while they are being shot at, and they just keep on believing they won't get shot down, that they are too special for that to happen to them.

They can't seem to recognize danger and the fact that there really are evil people in the world. They are weak and back down from confrontation. They don't attack the argument with logic, they attack the person that disagrees with them.

When they begin to recognize that Islam is a real problem to freedom and our way of life it will be too late and they will holler the loudest, or try to, but they will lose their heads then.
