I do not equate Christians with Radical Muslims. I equate Wacko Christians with Wacko Muslims. It was a christian who blew up the Murrow building. It was a christian who murdered a Doctor in church. It was a christian who shot up a Unitarian Church and murdered several parishioners. Need I go on? Oh Oh Oh, lets not forget that wacko sect protesting against homosexuality at veterans' funerals and these heroes are dead because God wants it that way. It took me all of 30 seconds to come up with this list and I didn't have to resort to the crusades. Nor do I include pedophilia in the catholic clergy.

There was a time when liberalism was identified with anti-Communism; the liberal-led Korean and Vietnam Wars were examples. But the Vietnam War led liberals into the arms of the left, which had been morally confused about communism since its inception and had become essentially pacifist following the carnage of World War I.

After the Vietnam War, even liberals who continued to describe communism as...
