Dennis Prager At CPAC: The Left 'Hate America Because It Is Good'
Townhall.com ^ | March 2, 2019 | Ian Snively

The left has proven themselves to be the antithesis of truth, individuality and love, Dennis Prager said at CPAC 2019.

Prager, host of The Dennis Prager Show and founder of Prager U, spoke Saturday at the Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center in Maryland. He shared with the CPAC crowd 21 things that the left has completely damaged. These include universities, the media, arts, sports, the nuclear family, the Boy Scouts of America, religion and human happiness.

What makes the leftist agenda so dangerous, according to Prager, is that even people who are well-mannered and have good intentions can fall for its ideology, allowing it to spread in America’s culture.

“Your opponent is irrelevant,” Prager told political candidates in the past. “You are running against someone on the left. The left is destructive.”

Prager finds it baffling how people who believe in statements made by the left will engage in acts that are hypocritical. He pointed to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s (D-NY) rhetoric that the world will end in 12 years and her belief that massive floods will emerge as a result of climate change. He wonders why people who believe in her words don’t end up selling their homes by the waterfront.

“Do they believe what they say?” he asked.

Prager also commented on racial relations in the United States, blaming the left for creating hostility between black and white people and making up issues that don’t exist.

“There are probably more hoaxes than there are genuine beatings of black people by whites,” he said.

During the end of his speech, he created an example of a married man who says, “I love my wife, but I want to see her fundamentally transformed.” Prager asked rhetorically if someone can truly love their wife and say such a thing. In comparison, can someone on the left really say they love America but want to change everything about it?

“[Conservatives] love America because it is good,” he said. “[Liberals] hate America because it is good.”

Prager ended his talk by advertising the upcoming documentary No Safe Spaces. This film details the totalitarian nature of modern college campuses, and how they hinder freedom of speech.

That’s where being a #NeverTrumper puts one these days.

I have not listened to the guy in years, though maybe I will listen to his speech here.

It ust seems that he is out of the mainstream.

CPAC lets all sorts of peeps speak, which is fine.

Prager is a horrible human being. The definitive warmongering neocon who loves to say, “War IS the answer!”. He was born in 1948 & spent the late ‘60s touring the USSR.

He loves to preach morality and hopes we forget he walked out on TWO families. He openly mocks people who love their pets and I heard him do an hour saying how disgusted he was by men who call their sons “buddy”. Prager obviously finds his children an imposition, so the fact that anyone could love their son as a pal nauseates him.

This sanctimonious fraud saw which way the wind was blowing, so trimmed his never-Trump sails. So, he lives on to preach to us how to live.

No thanks. BTW - Dennis ... you look like a Q-Tip.

Prager is not a never Trumper. He supports him and admits he was wrong about Trump. He judges him by his actions and he says he is the best since Reagan.

I found his speech [today?] to be innocuous.

And I do like the few PragerU videos I’ve seen.

I’ll do some more investigation of his current status on the issues going forward.

Admitting it is unheard of.

Mark Levin could take a lesson from Prager.

Has Trump ever invited him on stage?

Called him out in the audience?

EVER made a positive reference to him?

I try and listen to Prager every day. I DEFY YOU to find a talk radio host who calls out and condemns the Left and defends Donald Trump as vehemently as Dennis Prager. No one else is even close. When he’s riled up and shouting about “the vile LEFT!” you can actually hear spittle hitting the microphone.

“Leftists lie with the ease with which you or I breath” is probably his most common refrain.

Trump invited and hosted Dennis Prager at the White House.
