The democratic party has set up this little petition on its site to gripe at Rudy Giuliani for daring to suggest that the Democrats want to put us on defense in the war against Muslim agression.

Let’s recap:
- The democrats voted to go to war in Iraq, and now want us to bug out with our tails between our legs.

- The democrats are presenting an “alternate foreign policy”, apparently trying to make a separate peace with this country’s enemies. i.e., Speaker of the House Pelosi went to Syria (one of the most notorious state sponsors of terrorism) and met with it’s leader, sending mixed messages about America’s intention to hinder their designs.

- Democrat Senator Jim Webb introduced legislation which would limit the president’s ability to take military action against Iran (the prime state sponsor of terrorism) which has been providing material support and, for all we know, manpower to the insurgency which is killing Americans in Iraq.

- The democrats want to close the Guantanamo detention facility which holds some of the vilest human beings on the planet - who also happen to be terrorists - and bring them here to America to enjoy all the constitutional rights of citizens. You can’t fight a war like that.

- The democrats want to roll back the Patriot Act to reduce the number of tools at the disposal of American agents working to prevent future terrorist attacks.

- The democrats refer to intercepting phone calls between people in this country and suspected terrorists overseas as “spying on the American people” and want to make it as hard as possible to do so.

- The democrats have even banned the phrase “War on Terror”. OK, whatever. But if only they were willing to call it what is really is, a war against systematic Islamic agression which is occurring over most of the planet. But nobody is willing to describe it in those terms either, because it could appear “islamophobic”.

- Far too many liberals seem to believe that we are partly responsible for Islamic aggression and terrorist activity because of our actions. Our support for Israel or our military presence in Saudi Arabia, for instance. And that it is possible to placate our enemies by first understanding what makes them angry and then altering our actions accordingly.

- The democrats believe there is a diplomatic solution to jihad. This is folly supreme. This is a global jihad against everything non-Muslim. Thailand, the Phillipines, Chechnya, Australia, India, Spain, Somalia, Sudan, Ethiopia - these are just a few of the places where the Jihad is also occurring. I take it these nations have all done something to bring it upon themselves.

The most important thing to remember is that we’ve seen how Democrats deal with terrorism when they are in power. They treat it like a law enforcement issue instead of war. Granted, this was fairly common among both parties pre-911. But since then, most Republicans have developed a different perspective on the issue. Most Democrats apparently have not. Law enforcement is defensive by nature. Innocent until proven guilty. Miranda rights. And Lawyers. Remember, Clinton was handed Osama bin Laden on a silver platter, and he refused to act because he didn’t feel he had a legal basis to hold him. That’s how they want to fight this war.

What Rudy said was 100% correct. They see this as an opportunity to poke Rudy in the eye. However, I see this opportunity to poke the democrats in the eye. They intended this petition for their base. To tear down Rudy and demand an apology. But we are going to use their own petition against them.

I encourage you to write a short message of support and affirmation for America’s Mayor and tack it on this petition. Then pass it on to your pals and let’s all send a little message of our own.

Then, assuming they don’t censor us out, the democrats will be kind enough to “personally deliver” our message of support directly to Rudy’s office. Gotta love the irony in that. And it’s twice as satisfying as simply sending a supportive email directly to Rudy’s campaign. Even if the dems do filter our messages, at the very least we’ll have given them a piece of our minds.

Add your thoughts to their petition.
