Isolationism...

Remember this year's State of the Union Address when the President made repeated negative references to a philosophy he labeled as 'isolationism'?

Perhaps that was done to give talk radio and the columnists a few weeks to remind the sheep that good sheep are globalists.

Perhaps it was done with the port deal in mind, setting the stage for the spinners to remind everyone that they just got done saying they supported international business.

When that didn't work, the Benedict Arnolds declare opponents to be xenophobic racists, or even security threats.

The second in command at the Pentagon said Thursday that people who publicly oppose allowing a Middle Eastern company to take over management of some U.S. ports could be threatening national security.

Deputy Defense Secretary Gordon England told the Senate Armed Services Committee that blocking the deal could ostracize one of the United States' few Arab allies.

"The terrorists want our nation to become distrustful," England said. "They want us to become paranoid and isolationist, and my view is we cannot allow this to happen. It needs to be just the opposite."


Notice the reinforcement relating paranoia and "isolationism".

I just don't understand how the Bushbots can continue to insist that America is involved in a "Global War on Terror" as their King sells our ports and ignore our borders.
