Why are "Liberals" NOW labeled as soldier haters?

The administration said a year ago that the Iraqi army/police would be ready to take over. Now they say that it will take 12-18 more months for the Iraqis to be ready. And what will they say at that time? And how many more Americans will die will we wait for the Iraqi's to be "ready."  Is this "supporting" the soldiers? That is what liberal are against.  At least I am.

It's not synonymous with libs. It's conservatives too.  You just picked the wrong word. They're called idiots. Do I detect a little animosity on your part? I believe I do.

Usually, for professional and legal reasons, most military officers keep politics visibly out of thier professional lives.  Since a vast majority of the Armed Forces are very conservative politcally, being a vocal leftist riles many, especially after the myriad of abuses perpetrated by the Clinton admin.  Though the continued lies of the left and the media are creating interesting discussions.\n\nThe most famous leftist would be Wesley Clark, who in 1993, allowed Clinton to use M1A1 Tanks and M2 BFVs against civilians and then bombed Kosovo and Serbia in 1999.\n\nWhile there are some who disagree with President Bush on single issues, many voted for him twice (even if the left made sure our absentee ballots were thrown out in 2000 and 2004).\n\nThe largest concentration of leftists in the military would be in the lower enlisted and officer ranks.  The Orweillian leftist indoctrination in our public schools and college campi is difficult to combat.  I actually graduated with a very far left officer in 1997.  His goal was to use his authority as a Army National Guard Officer and a police officer to "teach conservatives a lesson".  Revealing view...

This posting isn't too awful.  \nThe idea that liberals dance when they see the casualties of war is another spin column used by the neocons.\nIt is unclear how the conservatives are able to pander to the lower and middle class.\nIs it hip to be ignorant?  I'm afraid ignorance is in at the moment.  This helps to make those with average to low intelligence feel some sense of pride.  \n\nThose who lied and sent our troops into harms way on a known false premise will burn in hell.

Nevermind what the moron said here prior. Yes, the country thankfully is slowly becoming more conservative. And the liberals hate it! They can't stand that their "ideas" never really worked and are fading faster by the day. And today's youth sees that. They're not as confused as the liberal media tries to portray them. \n\nFunny how it works: When the liberally biased media needs kids to say something that suits their lies, then they focus on the youth. But as soon as the youth speak out for god, country and true patriotism, then you can't find a camera in sight. \n\nKids are not as stupid as some people make them out to be and they see the lies and hatred liberals spread around like peanut butter. And they are putting two and two together and realize that these extreme kooks on the left are not the way to go. \n\nThey see a president that is calm, resolute and does not respond to the vitriolic attemps made by the left hate america first crowd. They can spew whatever lies and hatred they want, but as usual it is falling on deaf ears. \n\nWant proof liberals? You sickos call our president similar to hitler? if you bastards had any shame whatsoever, you'd stop what you're doing right now. I couldn't stand not so slick lying, cheating and strealing willie when he was renting my country out like a cheap suit, but I nor my republican brethren would ever stoop so low to compare him to hitler. \n\nThat's one of the many differences between us conservatives and you liberals. We know where the line is and you will say and do anything do get what you want. And the kids see that and are tuning you out. \n\nLiberals are also fuming because they know they are becoming extinct, and taking their fossill hippie counterparts down with them! Good riddance liberalism!\n\nPeace through patriotism. No victory, no peace!

False.  Conservatives were successful in making "liberal" a dirty word.  Liberals did not fight back and let them get away with it.  Bush though has awakened a sleeping giant and liberals are starting to fight back.

It has shown the far left nuts to be the American-hating losers they have always been.\n\nNotice I did not include all or even a majority of Democrats in this category. First, many Democrats actually support the war - I work with many and serve alongside many in my National Guard unit. Second, there are many Democrats who oppose the war based on well thought-out reasoning and principle. I happen to disagree with them, but they oppose it based on something they perceive as true rather than just hating it because it is chic to bash the President.

I never called CNN "UN-American," but they do have a liberal bias. I haven't seen them call the troops "heroes" but I don't think that merely calling the troops "heroes" would automatically make you a patriot either. Further, although you are not one of them, there are many liberals, and many liberal Democrats who DO dislike (hate is a very strong word) American and think that this country is fundamentally wrong and is the perpetrator of evil throughout the world. So, I think using generalizations tends to disprove a point almost every time.

Liberals are a funny bunch.  They are hypocritical and completely self deceived.  How else could the term "limosine liberal" pack such a punch?\n\nIf you tell a liberal his words and actions add up to hatred for America, he will vehemently deny it.  But they do nothing to make our country stronger, more prosperous, and more secure.  All they do is b**ch all the time.  They offer nothing substantive to the debate.\n\nLike Lee Iacoca said back in the 1980s, "either lead, follow, or get out of the way".  I wish Liberals would just get out of our way.  Ronald Reagan set us on the right road, but liberals keep wanting to take a detour.\n\nMaybe, as in the case of uber-liberals like Al Franken, it's a form of self-loathing.  They realize, on some level, they don't deserve how good they've got it, and it makes them feel guilty.

Republicans would have you believe they are all a bunch of patriots looking out for the troops. Republicans have trashed many an American hero in the name of politics. They want to cast Democrats as anti military. This is a bunch of crap and the troops should be offended they are being used. A true patriot will criticize a failed plan. The horrendous miss-calculations and mis management of this war has gotten a lot of troops killed. They beat back their detractors with smear tactics. It is sickening to hear the clowns on talk radio - most of which have never served - spew their propaganda for political gain. I can't stand listening to them decide who the patriots are. I love this country and would die for it. That is why I get fired up about this.

Its interesting that apparently even liberals are appalled at the imbeciles actions.  I guess it's another case of only they can draw the line indicating what is rightly considered outrageous behavior.  \n\nI think this woman, Cindy Sheehan and every other "protester" who openly gives support to the enemy are identical.  They are a walking, breathing insult not only to those who soldiers who have died, but to all those who have ever served this country as well.\n\nThe behavior of this obviously sick moron and the rest of the "church" members is as self centered, overtly disrespectful, and disgusting as I have ever seen.\n\nI haven't been to church in 20 years and people like her are EXACTLY the reason why.

Honestly, when discussing the war with liberal friends, they honestly believe that soldiers are stupid, misinformed or dirt poor. They don't come out and say it like that, but its obvious they struggle with the fact that people enlist for a lot of reasons including sense of duty and calling. I don't know if it will hurt them or not but I think it shows Kerry's and other Democrats true colors.

It is not the Liberals that oppose the war in Iraq.  It is the people that use their brains that oppose the war in Iraq.  It is not the war on terror that we should be fighting.  It has weakened the real war on terror and those of us that don't drink the kool aid , don't support a trumped up war.

It isn't a matter of hating each other. The 'liberals' are simply astonished at the blind faith conservatives have for W.  The conservatives think that if you don't support W., you  must be anti American.  The liberals are also concerned more about all the things the government is sacrificing the homeland for so that W. can fight his war in Iraq.  We have so many problems here in the USA, but W. has given up on this generation of Americans ( no stem cell research, less $$ for education, etc ) so he can try to build his oil empire while establishing a foothold in the mideast to attack Iran, protect Israel and make sure you can put gas in your SUV.

The WHINY, CRYING, GRIPEING, Liberals will never ever give one ounce of credit to Bush, or the military. They hate Bush so much that they demean any good at all.
