"But now that we are trying to do something right by giving people freedom or capitalism ... and at the same time make ourselves safer since true democracies deal with the evil in their own society’s, the left wants nothing to do with it."

"The Left", "The Right"... these are outdated and divisive concepts. The fact is that you and I are in the same boat: We have no say over what our Gov't does with our money. They bomb, they torture, and they give cash to their friends. We get left holding the bag.

Think this through: Saudi-born terrorists flew jets into national monuments. We invade and occupy a country (Iraq) that had nothing to do with the attacks. Now shit is going through the meat-grinder and coming out like so much smelly poop. And you defend the actions of those who do not share your interests? Curious.

The USA can ride no moral high horse... we commit the same crimes as everyone else. We are at the height of imperial excess. We have to special ability to "give democracy" or "freedom" to anyone.
