Thats the problem with the Loony Right - they latch onto something bright and shiny, never bother to see if they have been sold a pup or not.... Quote' from Wikipedia The term is commonly attributed to Vladimir Lenin, sometimes in the form "useful idiots of the West", to describe those Western reporters and travelers who would endorse the Soviet Union and its policies in the West. However, no reference to a communist sympathizer or political leftist as a "useful idiot" was made in the USA until 1948..... *"Lenin called them "useful idiots," those people living in *liberal democracies who by giving moral and material support *to a totalitarian ideology in effect were braiding the rope that *would hang them. Why people who enjoyed freedom and prosperity worked *passionately to destroy both is a fascinating question, one still with us *today. Now the useful idiots can be found in the chorus of appeasement, *reflexive anti-Americanism, and sentimental idealism trying to inhibit *the necessary responses to another freedom-hating ideology, radical Islam" *Bruce C. Thornton, a professor of Classics at American University of Cal State Fresno (Gunner - quoting someone from California?) My apologies, hadn't realized I was cross posting - my words are not so valuable as to spray several groups. Checked your headers, see you are crossposting as well, so have removed links to all but here. BTW - can you apologise for being such a rude, hypocritical slob, wouldn't want the rest of the world to think you were representative of your countrymen. |
