Khizr Khan Repeats 5 BIG LIES FROM THE LEFT

By Joel Pollack – Breitbart News

1. Terror has “nothing to do with Islam.” That statement, made by Mr. Khan to CNN on Sunday, is simply ridiculous. It also happens to be the stated policy position of the Obama administration and Hillary Clinton’s campaign. The left clings to this belief because it is not prepared to confront the ongoing terror threat, or to admit the failure of its multiculturalist policies. That cognitive dissonance persists even among those who are terror’s victims.

2. Conservatives oppose all immigration. Mr. Khan told the Democratic National Convention: “If it was up to Donald Trump, [my son] never would have been in America.” The Khan family came to America in 1980, when Islamic terrorists had barely begun to attack the U.S. Trump has presented different versions of his proposal, but the basic thrust is to allow legal immigration while limiting it from terror-prone countries. The Khan family would have been welcome.

3. War is never the answer. That claim was not made by Khan himself, but was implicit in the audience’s reaction inside the Wells Fargo Arena. While they applauded the Khans, left-wing, anti-war delegates heckled the military speakers that followed, including a wounded veteran. Happy to honor a dead veteran, whose sacrifice might suggest the futility of war, they were rude to living ones. The left rejects war, period — though weakness has always invited aggression.

4. The Constitution doesn’t mean what it says. The left likes to reinterpret the text for its own purposes. Thus Mr. Khan held a pocket Constitution aloft, and mocked Trump’s immigration policy: “Have you even read the U.S. Constitution? I will gladly lend you my copy. In this document, look for the words ‘liberty’ and ‘equal protection of law.’” The latter phrase only applies to citizens, not immigrants. Trump’s policy might be inadvisable, but it is constitutional.

5. The media have no liberal bias. When Patricia Smith, the bereaved mother of Benghazi hero Sean Smith, spoke at the Republican National Convention, she received 70 seconds of network coverage. Mr. Khan and his wife have enjoyed 50 times more attention, according to an analysis by NewsBusters, as they continue an extensive circuit of sympathetic interviews and TV appearances. The left pretends the media are not biased, but the numbers tell the truth.
