Liberal progressive rhetoric and actions have proven the far-Left to be a bunch of bigots.  Progressivism is corrupt.  Progressive bigotry is clear: 1) The Libyan and Syrian democrats are good and must be militarily supported by the USA massively bombing Libya and Syria.  2) The Iraqi democrats are bad and must be abandoned by the USA.  Denis McDonough, President Obama's deputy national security adviser, speaking from inside the White House said about supporting the Libyan democrats while abandoning the Iraqi democrats, "We don't make decisions about questions like intervention based on consistency or precedent."  Remember the far-Left saying the Iraqi democrats were not 'worth' fighting with or partnering with in 2005?  Remember the 2005 John Murtha rant - "The Iraqi democrats must be abandoned immediately!!!"  Remember the domestic political narrative used to seize the U.S. Senate back in 2006, "The Iraqi democrats are ‘inherently’ incapable and the Iraqi democrats lost the Iraq war!!!"  Flash forward and 'progressive' Bombs Away Over Libya.  Is Syria next?  What bunch of two-faced, progressive bigots: “I am unabashedly cheering the Libyan liberation movement on, and glad that the UNSC-authorized intervention has saved them from being crushed.” - said Juan Cole.  In Iraq and Egypt, Obama is not lifting a finger.  The ‘purple finger’ strategy requires capacity.  Training classes for the trainers.  Training classes for the poll watchers.  Training classes for the voter registration monitors.  Bush was happy to pay to train the trainer in Iraq.  Push comes to shove in Iraq and Egypt and progressives are frauds.  For example, the Iraqi democrat election monitor trainers ultimately trained the Iraqi poll watchers.  Bush paid for thousands of clear voting boxes and computers for registration.  Capacity.  Bush paid for capacity.  Because of Bush, the Iraqi democrats are already planning the logistics for their 13th and 14th free and fair elections since 2004.  Bush paid for the State Department and USAID to train the trainer so that the Iraqis knew how to run free and fair elections.  Obama is not lifting a finger in Egypt.  Obama is not lifting a finger in Tunisia.  Obama is not paying for anything.  The progressives in America secretly hate Arab ‘freedom’ because of Operation Iraqi Freedom.  Bush Derangement Syndrome blinds progressives.  These progressives in the USA and EU are two faced bigots.  These progressives in the USA and EU still think the Iraqi democrats are ‘inherently’ incapable.  Do progressives think the Egyptian democrats are ‘inherently’ incapable or unworthy like the Iraqi democrats?  Bottom-line: Because of Bush Derangement Syndrome, the far-Left still wants the Iraqi democrats to fail causing helicopters on the U.S. embassy roof in a sick, twisted, evil, second Saigon.
