Get serious.

Look at the list. Click on a few of them. Granted, there are some relatively benign exceptions, like the American Friends Quaker group, but most of them are the same old socialists beating on the same "Evil Amerika" drum they've been banging on since the '60s.

I don't know how taxes came into this. I dare you to find a group on this page whose major cause is across-the-board tax cuts.

I think the patriots in the late '60s and early '70s were the people who loved their country enough to say their country was wrong, and try to save American, as well as other, lives and treasury.

"Patriots," huh? That's a new one for those guys who tried to bomb the ROTC buildings and busted property all over my campus.

Of course dissent is not anti-American. Dissent is, almost by definition, the American way.

My point is that these people, with some exceptions as noted, have largely hitched onto the anti-war wagon not because of any honest concerns about the war, but for another chance to stick their finger into the eye of Uncle Sam. Hopefully permanently. It's just another way to advance their own agenda, which IS anti-American. You can bet there are a lot of '60s veterans who have latched onto this as a chance to bring back the Good Old Days, and actually appear to amount to something again.

You could go over the list one by one and find out which category each belongs in. It would be pretty obvious. I found enough examples to satisfy me.

The vast number of well-organized people in this nation and elsewhere that firmly believe that Marxist collectivism is the best way to run our lives makes me kind of nervous. The list I published contains many of them. There are other, much more extensive lists that I have seen. This one is on an electrical union's page, for God's sake. Interestingly, a number of these lists have vanished off the Web in the past months.
