This is from another forum, but I thought it was an interesting post. What do you guys think of "useful idiots"? And, before anyone ******* me out, I just thought it was an interesting post. So get over it.

****************************************

"Lenin is supposed to have referred to blind defenders and apologists for the Soviet Union in the Western democracies as "useful idiots."

In the Soviet Union, the useful idiots were, unknowingly, digging their own graves. When Lenin and his friends were done with them, they usually rid themselves of them.

We have had groups of useful idiots during the Vietnam war, and now, in this fight with Islamofascism, another band of UIs have predictably cropped up. As usual, they are on the left, and they cheer on any success by terrorists like the intimidation in Spain which resulted in a government that will inevitably wipe out the economic advances of Spain in the last decade, and, of course, give enormous aid, comfort, and encouragement to the murderers of 200 people in Madrid earlier. And, of course, they, at the same time, condemn the execution of the homicidal maniac, Yassim.

And, of course, they are, like their predecessors in the Soviet Union, digging their own graves. For, were the Islamofascists to win, they would be among the first to be murdered."

Liberal Conspiracy
*******
TILT
There's some broad on the radio who beats the phrase "useful idiots" into the ground. Terri O'Brian, I think it is. Anyway, where someone like Rush Limbaugh occassionally at least makes me think "Hey, I guess that's true", everything out of this woman's mouth convinces me that she's a ******. So, by association, I consider anyone using the phrase "useful idiots" to be a ******. Present company excepted, of course Smiley: wink

Always...ah, no, never....forget to add your own opinion to an opening post. Lest you incur the wrath of mrens.



I think the young people enjoy it when I "get down" verbally, don't you?

I'm not sure. I've actually never heard the term before. I doubt it's a term I would subscribe to. I was hoping others had and could shed some light on it for me.

What do YOU think, Leiany?

same goes for me - although your opening post sounds like you wanted rather other peoples opinions on the people referred to as useful idiots than their explanations on the term itself....
