The cuckoo is an odd type of bird. Many species of cuckoo will find the nest of another type of bird and lay an egg in that nest. Invariably, the cuckoo egg will hatch first and the newly emerged chick will proceed to push out all the other eggs, thus destroying the real young of the parent bird. In spite of that, the parent will feed the cuckoo as if it were its own. The fact that the cuckoo has destroyed the real family of the bird that built the nest is irrelevant. The cuckoo is a murderous and parasitic little creature, really.
I can't help but feel that the story of the cuckoo is a great analogy for our time.
America is the nest.
Radical islam is the cuckoo.
Liberals are those who would feed and protect the cuckoo as if it were their own, in spite of the fact that the cuckoo will invariably wreak destruction.
