Non-whites denied the right to vote!

I thought that allowing non-whites to vote was a major priority of the Left. Yet what will their reaction be when murderous thugs try to prevent non-whites from voting in Iraq? If their reaction to prior injustices are any clue, the answer will be "not much."

What does the Left say about the thugs murdering innocent Iraqis on the street? Nothing.

What did they say when religious fanatics made women cover themselves completely in Fallujah, and beat them when they disobey? Nothing. What did they say when Marines and soldiers liberated the city, including its oppressed women? Nothing.

What did the Left say when four American contractors were murdered, burned to death, and hung from a bridge? Mostly nothing (although some leftists called the dead men "mercenaries," when they were really just security guards protecting a food shipment. That's right: THEY DIED WHILE TRYING TO GET FOOD TO POOR PEOPLE. And the Voices of Compassion and Goodness called them "mercenaries.")

The Left isn't completely silent: they blame all problems in the Middle East on President Bush, as if prior to January 20, 2001, it was the Garden of Eden. They have nothing bad to say about the people doing all the murdering and bombing and kidnapping, because they think Bushitler forced them to do it, and non-whites are never completely culpable for their own actions.

It began with their hysterical defense of Bill Clinton, and it continues with the excuse-making for Islamic terrorism. The Left's fire-sale of its principles continues apace.
