The Liberal Legacy

There is an excellent article on the American Thinker blog today about the bay of pigs in Cuba. This story, I think, shows the depths that a democrat will go to show that they support Communism and oppose Democracy or, maybe that they will just do ANYTHING to consolidate their power and show that THEY are the ones in charge. A lot of heroes were made that day and we, as a nation, stood by and watched them die.

When the smoke cleared and their ammo had been expended to the very last
bullet, when a hundred of them lay dead and hundreds more wounded, after their
very mortars and machine gun barrel had almost melted from their furious rates
of fire, after three days of relentless battle, barely 1,400 of them -- without
air support (from the U.S. Carriers just offshore) and without a single
supporting shot by naval artillery (from U.S. cruisers and destroyers poised
just offshore) -- had squared off against 41,000 Castro troops, his entire air
force and squadrons of Soviet tanks. The Cuban freedom-fighters inflicted
casualties of 30 to 1against their Soviet-armed and led enemies.

These are dangerous times. We ALL need to be on our guard.
