“Turning liberalsism into an instrument of coercion?” That is like turning water into , well, water.
Well, for some reason, we are letting them get away with it. No one is stopping them. As Rush pointed out yesterday, liberals make up only about 20% of the U.S. population (whereas somewhere around 30% to 40% identify as Conservative, according to various polls), and yet they are still having their way with all of these things. For such a small minority of the population, they have taken control of the news media, the entertainment industry, and all forms of mass communication in general (except for one or two cable TV channels, AM talk radio, and a portion of the Internet). They also control the public education system, the judiciary, organized labor, a portion of Christian churches, and few other major things. Why is it that the rest of the population is not standing up to them, and putting a stop to all of this?? Why do they, as such a small minority, continue to get away with this??
