It seems to me that David Horwitz has done yeoman service in exposing the leftist connections among elected Democrats and the Soros sponsored 527s etc. He has documented his assertions yet he gets precious little traction and he cannot even get a hearing on most college campuses.

Somehow, we have got to make it respectable to be anti-Communist. Hell, we cannot even make it respectable to be anti-global warming hysteria even when the world has been shown actual fraud. Our task is daunting.

Beck and Limbaugh, as examples, know that they cannot put a single foot down wrong ever or they will be discredited up and down the land. Even when conservatives reproduce liberals speaking in their own words the conservatives are accused of capital crimes like bigotry or racism for even alluding to the matter.

The left has won a great victory by so obscuring the matter of its unsavory connections and antecedents that most people throw up their hands and go about their lives. The left knows how to mobilize indignation on its own behalf and how to smother reality when it becomes inconvenient. We are unlikely to get Congressional hearings on any of these matters even though the most obvious and appropriate subject for congressional investigation concerns the activities of Obama's Czars which no doubt would reveal a world of dubious connections. We are unlikely to get an academic to write a book exposing Communist infiltration. The press has no appetite for it.

David Horowitz and Glenn Beck are brave men but who has their back?

All well said. There is nothing else to do but stand for the principles we believe in and behind what we know to be the truth. Those things are more important to me than family or friends and they have found that out or they will if they ever test my loyalties.

Thankfully I don't have to guard my credibility the way public personalities do.

Those who wish to perform the intellectual trickery of ignoring all they know about me and casting me into their stereotype of a "right-winger" can just walk away and live with that fabrication. I won't stop them. If they change their mind I will be here. For a while.
