I believe liberals dont view it this way. That is, they dont see it as a need for them to make any choices. Making a choice is for the rest of us. They get freedom while the ideologically impure get fascism and ultimately prison or death. Either you get with their program or get marginalized/liquidated.

“Liberals Must Choose Between Freedom And Fascism”....

They made that choice by BEING liberals and pushing their agenda will only get them to Fascism that much faster.

Correct. Liberals have never objected to fascism as long as their people are in charge. In fact, they were even generally supportive of the Nazi brand of fascism until Hitler attacked their better buddy Stalin.

The president and Scotus can rewrite law. Congress can force us to purchase anything it wishes.

This question isn't directed at you, but to all, and I ask how elections can possibly reverse these tyrannical precedents? Are we a free people? No. Okay, so what should be done?

Liberals want to be free to have the government make other people do what the liberals want them to do and believe what the liberals want them to believe.

That is how liberals view freedom.

Don’t call them “Liberals” or “Progressives”....call them “Regressives”, because they want to regress back to the days of Feudal Lords, where they are the “nobility” and we’re the “Peasants” and “serfs”.

Liberals will always choose wrong. Always.

What should be done? As Shakespeare had it, “First, we kill all the lawyers.”

That’s a good start, but probably not workable ;)

Elections CAN change things, and I would suggest that we already have the means to effect change in the TEA Party movement.

Find out where the nearest chapter is and get in touch. Then get to work.

It was a personal experience in 1971 of the left suppressing free expression that started me on my journey away from them, and ultimately against them. Reading Robert Ringer and Milton Friedman throughout the 1970’s ‘splained it to me.

I was taking pictures at the Revolutionary Peoples’ Constitutional Convention when a Black Panther “official” demanded that I give up my camera. He said “we authorize all pictures.”

I was not about to give up a camera that had been a gift from my parents, so I satisfied him by giving up the film. Later in the day, a pickpocket got the camera.

I had bought the obigatory VW bus by working twelve hours a day at a job. One of the Panthers told me that the people were going to need that vehicle. Well, the “people” were not making the loan payments.

It’s worse,
they advocate the use of force to, as you said, force others to do and believe what the libs want them to,
deny that they are authoritarians,
and feel good about themselves for their advocacy.

Bloomberg just expressed what most libs think of themselves -
“due to the policies I’ve advocated for, I’m waltzing into heaven, skipping the interview”

if only that was true. Back then serfs pay less than 5% tax. Didn’t US revolt against the Crown over 3% tax? These days we pay 50%+ taxes if you include everything. We’re more like slaves to government

Oswalt played a character on last week’s “Agents of S.H.E.I.L.D” episode. Will probably be in tomorrow’s episode too.

Patton has never said anything even remotely funny. He is a hack riding on Kevin James’ coattails.

"Unfortunately, they already have."

Liberals have chosen, and consummated themselves with treason.

Andrew Breitbart obviously was one. Otherwise he wouldn’t have seen the light. Think about it.

Many start out that way, but it makes for an unstable compound. Eventually they either wise up or the mask falls and they go full-bore Stalinist. That’s when they become so revolting normal people can’t stand to be around them, and they become divorced from polite society.

Liberals are inherently dishonest, especially with themselves.

It’s like the old joke about the Democrat puppies and Bill Clinton. Once they open their eyes they become Republicans.

Liberalism is founded on false principles, false premises. It is inherently dishonest. And so are all liberals.

Once they wake up, open their eyes, they’re no longer liberals.
