Whittaker Chambers said: "Innocence seldom utters outraged shrieks. Guilt does." Chambers was talking about the outraged shrieks with which liberals met evidence identifying high-ranking officials in the Roosevelt and Truman administrations as being Soviet spies. Chambers was the key witness in the 1940s trial that convicted Soviet spy and U.S. government official Alger Hiss of perjury. These traitors that liberals defended were later proven by decrypted cables to be Soviet agents who had passed along thousands of documents of military and strategic secrets to the Russians in the beginning of the Cold War.

While such a blunder seems damaging, liberals still continue their ruthless campaigns against truth and morality. Democrats call George W. Bush a liar for inventing the existence of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and overstating the threat Saddam Hussein posed, while many of the same people gave speeches before the war outlining the identical points made by the president.

Despite running his failed presidential campaign on the premise that the president lied about Iraq, Sen. Bob Graham, D-Fla., said in a letter to the president Dec. 5, 2001: "There is no doubt that . . . Saddam Hussein has invigorated his weapons programs. In addition, Saddam continues to redefine delivery systems and is doubtless using the cover of a licit missile program to develop longer-range missiles that will threaten the United States and our allies." When called on their contradiction, liberals uttered their guilty shrieks that dissent during wartime is somehow patriotic. Apparently, telling bold-faced lies when America's security is at risk simply qualifies as "dissent." Liberals not only think their lying is justified, but they want to be commended for it as "patriots."

Liberals formulate arguments not on facts or ideas but on attacking the person who opposes them. Opposition to the war in Iraq stems largely from Democrats' unhidden hatred for the president. Rather than cite facts that would all point to a successful and justified war, liberals call President Bush a "miserable failure" and leave the details for later.

A good gauge as to how wrong a liberal is on a certain issue is the amount of those outraged shrieks Chambers had noticed in the '40s.

A prime of example of this outrage happened at Penn State on Oct. 8 and 9 when the pro-life group Genocide Awareness Project (GAP) displayed graphic images of aborted babies. Liberals and feminists on campus reacted in their predictably maniacal and defensive way. To hide their own moral shortcomings, liberals offered little more than senseless arguments wrapped in pseudo-strong language.

Protestors at the GAP demonstration (visibly shaken from having to publicly admit they're liberals) held signs reading, "What ever happened to 'No Hate at Penn State?' " Apparently, showing liberals a picture of a dead baby, the result of a procedure they whole-heartedly support, qualifies as "hate."

In her letter to The Daily Collegian, President of the Feminist Majority Leadership Alliance Dominica Bowski surmised the ulterior motives behind the anti-abortion demonstration by saying, "It just exemplifies how Penn State has once again given in to the right-wing conservatives." Bowski must have meant that besides Cuntfest, Sex Faire, the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender Association (LGBT), an overwhelmingly liberal faculty, institutionalized diversity, the office of multicultural affairs, the women's studies department, an LGBT minor, and a cultural center named after a communist (Paul Robeson), Penn State really does have a conservative agenda.

At first, liberals offered these very weak arguments that failed to defend the morality of abortion, and then, in a move that would save them from having to actually come up with facts or ideas, later resorted to desperate pleas that GAP be removed from campus altogether. Like a poorly coached football team, liberals continued with the same old predictable playbook. The expected outraged shrieks appeared just as their inability to debate in the arena of ideas had been exposed by the GAP's presence on campus.

In a front-page Collegian article, Bowski demonstrated how desperate liberals had become, having no capacity to defend a procedure that murders innocent humans. She told The Daily Collegian, "We want to raise awareness about the Genocide Awareness Project so they are never allowed to come back to Penn State again."

Nichole Dobo (senior-journalism) demonstrated how liberals abandoned any kind of debate and settled for shutting up the pro-life opinion. "I cannot believe Penn State repeatedly approves this trashy and fundamentally flawed group to set up shop in our prestigious Palmer Museum of Art," she wrote in a letter to the editor.

In their panic-stricken way, liberals had contradicted themselves once again. By opposing free speech on campus, liberals went against all they had fought for in the Sex Faire controversy in 2001. Just as Democrats, driven by hatred for the president, have reversed what they believed a year ago, liberals have conveniently ignored the First Amendment for those who oppose abortion.

In February 2001, the feminist group Womyn's Concerns organized Sex Faire, an event aimed to "teach students about safe, consensual sex in a fun and welcoming way." The Sex Faire, held in Pollock Commons, included games such as "pin the clitoris on the vulva" and "orgasm bingo," a table featuring "Smut and other Great Literature" and a presentation about gay and lesbian sex.

Liberals and feminists erupted in a frenzy citing their right to free speech when state Rep. John Lawless, D-Montgomery, questioned Sex Faire and threatened to propose a cut in state funding for Penn State. A member of Womyn's Concerns told The Daily Collegian, "We have a right to talk about these things. If you can't talk about that on a college campus, where can you talk about that?"

Why weren't these feminists clamoring for GAP's right to "talk about these things?"

Liberals defended Soviet spies in the U.S. government as victims of wrongful accusations, and then they were proven to be Soviet spies.

Democrats accuse the president of deliberate lying, and then we find out they said the same things.

Liberals defend abortion not by presenting facts but instead silencing their opponents, a tactic they vehemently oppose when done to them.

Liberal outrage should raise a red flag signifying that behind all of their anger, they have no coherent argument.
