Far out, man! It's really groovy how all those brothers and sisters are coming out against Kerry, it's about time.
Bump!
It's a window on "tolerant" LIBERALISM.
Nice dissection.
Good shot!
Ha ha.
Along with shadowy groups...
LOL!
Rush said they're funnest when they're out of power. I think this screamer just saw the next 4 years (perhaps longer) slip out of Democrat hands.
Dittos for this guy.
a political ad during a political campaign... gee, imagine that
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.....
I'm dying here. I just got it. Ha ha ha ha ha....
Bump!
Now you're getting serious and so will I.
*** ..........They hate you because you are killers of their dream. Because you are defenders of a Constitution that thwarts their cause. They hate you because your "reactionary" commitment to individual rights, to a single standard and to a neutral and limited state obstructs their progressive designs. They hate you because you are believers in property and its rights as the cornerstones of prosperity and human freedom; because you do not see the market economy as a mere instrument for acquiring personal wealth and political war chests, to be overcome in the end by bureaucratic schemes.
Conservatives who think progressives are misinformed idealists will forever be blind-sided by the malice of the left-by the cynicism of those who pride themselves on principle, by the viciousness of those who champion sensitivity, by the intolerance of those who call themselves liberal, and by the ruthless disregard for the well-being of the downtrodden by those who preen themselves as social saints.
Conservatives are caught by surprise because they see progressives as merely misguided, when in fact they are fundamentally misdirected. They are the messianists of a religious faith. But it is a false faith and a self-serving religion. Since the redeemed future that justifies their existence and rationalizes their hypocrisy can never be realized, what really motivates progressives is a modern idolatry: their limitless passion for the continuance of Them. .........***Source
Interesting choice of words for someone complaining about "smears". The left is congenitally incapable in engaging in debate without using personal attack.
That's their only ammunition.
I love that piece. I use it all the time. There are so many good quotes in it.
Bump!
Bump the link to a great thread in your #73.
I just re-read that classic!
Thanks again.
