lessons in national security and conservatism

Over the past 36 hours or so, the world has become a "classroom". We here in the United States, as well as citizens of the other countries of the free world, are the students. Our "professors" are the proponents of both liberalism and conservatism, found in the worlds of academia, the media, and politics. The name of this vitally important course that we find ourselves immersed in is "Who Is Better Able To Protect Us--Liberals Or Conservatives?". What I would like to do here is to provide you with links to some of the "lessons" that have been presented so far.
Lesson #1 can be found at www.foxnews.com. On the right hand side of the home page you will see the box labeled "Free Video." Click on the link that says "click here for more video." That brings up the foxnews.com Free Video Player. Click on the link that says "National" and then click on the box with the picture of Rudy Guiliani. You will be able to see the video of the Hannity and Colmes interview with the former New York mayor. The video is refreshing in one sense, in that there is no yelling or screaming or interrupting. It offers the viewer the opportunity to see very clearly the difference between the conservative worldview and the liberal worldview. You will be able to see that Mr. Guiliani becomes a little frustrated with Alan Colmes, because Colmes just doesn't get it. Islamofacism has been determined to destroy Israel, the United States, and every other part of the Christian or Jewish world since at least the 1970's. In other words, the war on terror has been going on a lot longer than 9/11/01; we just weren't fighting back. Islamofacism hates us, not because of anything we have done, but because of who we are. We are "infidels" who must be converted, or killed. Negotiation/appeasement is impossible. This is a must-see video.
Lesson #2--Earlier this week, Connecticut Democrats voted to purge Joe Lieberman from the party, for the sole reason that he supports the war in Iraq. Now, mind you, Sen. Lieberman has been very vocal in his opposition to many parts of the war on terror in general. This lines him up with the far left of the Dems. He has fought against the most successful parts of Bush's anti-terrorism strategy, such as the NSA wiretapping, mining of phone records, etc. He just happens to believe that the war in Iraq was the right thing to do, so he has become "unclean", a leper in the eyes of the Democrat establishment. His opponent, Ned Lamont, opposes every part of the war on terror and supports our complete surrender in the fight. In light of recent events, who do you think is right? This is a "test question" we can't afford to get wrong.
Lesson #3--Three links to look at:

You will find both liberal and conservative opinions concerning the war on terror in these 3 links. Sen. Harry Reid (D) reveals a profound misunderstanding of the realities of a post-9/11 world when he talks about how the American people won't be fooled by the Republicans saying that they are stronger on national security. I have news for the delusional senator from Nevada. The anti-terrorism programs Pres. Bush put in place have worked, in spite of all attempts by the left to sabatoge those programs. The cooperation that Bush has been able to create among the leaders of the free world led to intelligence sharing that absolutely prevented another 9/11. This in spite of the liberal fiction that our president is a modern-day Lone Ranger who has no support from anyone else in the world. We are not cleaning up airplane wreckage and body parts scattered along the Atlantic Seaboard today, precisely because we have a president who, like "America's Mayor" Guiliani, clearly recognizes the threat we face and is determined to eliminate that threat.
