Melissa Harris-Perry Admits: U.S. Military 'Despised By Many Progressives'
It's hardly a secret. After all, in a letter to a senior officer, no less than a young Bill Clinton openly admitted that many of his cohort to "loath[ed] the military." Still, it's stunning to hear a modern-day liberal make a similar admission.

On her MSNBC show today, Melissa Harris-Perry stated that the U.S. military is "despised as an engine of war by many progressives." View the video after the jump.

MHP made her admission as a preface to observing that our military has also been "a leading institution in America's fight for racial equality." No doubt. But let's return to her notion that progressives despise the military as "an engine of war." Well, yeah. And when you need a war to be fought, you want your military to be the biggest, baddest engine around. How can progressives fail to understand that? In any case, thanks to MHP for revealing an inconvenient truth.

Re: Melissa Harris-Perry Admits: U.S. Military 'Despised By Many Progressives'
There are no less than 5 career military men, who achieved the top ranks possible (SEC-DEF or Joint Chief) who have had to resign after claiming the anti-progressive fact that the greatest threat to national security is the debt obligations the USA has to nations with out a military.

I got like an 85 I.Q. maybe that's why I am not sophisticated enough to understand the two party system and Hegelian dialectic.

Re: Melissa Harris-Perry Admits: U.S. Military 'Despised By Many Progressives'
This is completely true. I know several progressive people that literally want to see military members put on trial and taken out of society when they come back from the warzone for following along with the "war machine" willingly. Progressives despise the idea that anyone would join the military to fight for what they are told is freedom instead of protesting at home against anyone in government that is not a progressive, violently if necessary. They don't think US soldiers fight for freedom and justice, as their idea of freedom and justice is the government controlling everything for the good of everyone at the expense of everyone. It's sick as hell, and makes you want to tell them how extreme and mentally unstable they are every day.

 Quoting: christian


Because Liberals are naive enough to think that they can make it where there will never be anymore wars. They also hate the military because they think the money can be better used to buy votes to keep them in power.
Ayatollah Khomeini:
“Islam makes it incumbent on all adult males, provided they are not disabled and incapacitated, to prepare themselves for the conquest of [other] countries so that the writ of Islam is obeyed in every country in the world. But those who study Islamic Holy War will understand why Islam wants to conquer the whole world…. Those who know nothing of Islam pretend that Islam counsels against war. Those [who say this] are witless. Islam says: Kill all the unbelievers just as they would kill you all! Does this mean that Muslims should sit back until they are devoured by [the unbelievers]? Islam says: Kill them [the non-Muslims], put them to the sword and scatter [their armies]. Does this mean sitting back until [non-Muslims] overcome us? Islam says: Kill in the service of Allah those who may want to kill you! Does this mean that we should surrender to the enemy? Islam says: Whatever good there is exists thanks to the sword and in the shadow of the sword! People cannot be made obedient except with the sword! The sword is the key to Paradise, which can be opened only for Holy Warriors! There are hundreds of other [Koranic] verses and Hadiths [sayings of the Prophet] urging Muslims to value war and to fight. Does all that mean that Islam is a religion that prevents men from waging war? I spit upon those foolish souls who make such a claim.”

Ohh, there is a way to prevent wars. Its called taxation with exposure to war weariness. Unfortunately, the great deception will continue 'till the drought brings reality to the swamp in D.C.

Okay, so basically what Mitt Romney was saying was, you know, “These spongers, these grifters, these people, I wouldn't piss on them if their ass was on fire because they don't pay in.” But it's not really 47 percent. But I, here’s my question: It's not zero percent either, takers. I mean, there are a lot of dirt bags in this country, and I think it's somewhere in between 47 and zero. I think we should split the difference and say we have 23.5 percent dirt bags in America. I do. Like the Octomom. California pays, we pay to, you know, feed and cloth and spay and neuter her children. And she's not giving back to society.

And she can thank a soldier for her right to freely express her views under the blanket of our Constitution.

We do not make the call on when we go to war or who we fight. Those decisions are made by our civilian President and Congress. We go, we fight, some come home whole, some not. And some come home in memory only. We do it to protect the freedoms of our nation, for our families and friends and the freedoms of those we know not. We do it because, if not me, then who.

We write a blank check to our government, payable with all we have and all we will ever have. In exchange we work days with no quitting times, subject ourselves to hazardous conditions 24 hours a day, do our duty in temperatures from minus 70 to temperatures above 130, without much if anything in the way of rest.

And we are glad to do it. For our country, for our family and for you.

So when I hear someone deride or vilify the military, I smile. Because I was part of protecting their freedom to voice their opinion.

Progressives despise the military at their peril. Since progressives often are those who would give up their Natural Rights, and the military are those who guarantee their Natural Rights as defenders and representatives of the Federal Government, then such ill regard for one's protectors is foolish.

At some point, the preponderance of US military may decide that the whole political system is so riddled with treasonous infiltrators that they may decide wholesale to rise up and rid the USA of the noxious traitors once and for all.
