I see the insertion of "RIGHT WING" in the case, at CBS and in other "mainstream" media outlet (MSM), it's not only ufair, unjust and false, but it's part of the 'left' campaign of demonization of the 'right.'
I’ve presumed that they use the adjective ‘rightwing’ because the anti-gun lobby is comprised exclusively of Lefties.
Because calling them wrong-wing would not play into the leftists' version of reality. It plays into their agenda to demonize them and associate these groups with the "Right." It's just one big PSYOPS campaign to discredit anyone who disagrees with the left.
I meant in the sense that God is going to recognize them as Christians. Now that is a preliminary statement based upon the assumption that what the government is saying they were all about is true...and the Obama admin has shown over and over that they can not be trusted...so we need to leave some real room that they are innocent of the charges (that's the law of the land anyway...innocent until proven guilty).
Alex Jones was a 911 truther and I wouldn’t call him “right wing”. I’ve seen him called a “radical libertarian”.
Heck, the Democrats probably think Lyndon LaRouche (D) is “right wing”.
Yet, we call the nazi regime in Germany ultra-right wing even though a lot of the core-ideas are very "left wing" by todays arbitrary definitions:
* Government control over banking and industry
* Government control over education
* Government control over media
* Government control over healthcare and social security
Like someone already mentioned: it's all in the perspective. Back in the 1920, the labels were not "left" or "right", it was "Bolschevism" vs "Fascism". "Left" and "Right" are modern-day re-definitions. Time to drop them alltogether.
Excellent question.
If the charges hold true, these are truly despicable people. Any of us who consider ourselves a part of the “right” need to make it loud and clear that we want no part of them.
Not fair to lump nutjobs in with honest and law-abiding Americans who may oppose this administration but who love the country.
If they appear to be on the right, wouldn’t that make them on the right?
Because they are anti communist. And in our this or that world, since the communists are the left, the anti communists are the right.
If you go far enough on either side you meet on the other end of the world. I’ve known liberals who think Larouche is a ‘right wing fascist’.
What's this "We" stuff Kemosabe ?
LaRouche is a pre-68 Democrat. He doesn’t like the New Democrat radicals. But that doesn’t make him “right wing” by any definition.
EXACTLY!!!
When someone can point to another nation with a goverment similar to our 3 branch system and our Constitutional protection of personal liberties and limits on the powers of government, I’ll accept a “global” definition of “Left” and “Right”.
Otherwise there is no foreign example of what in America is called “right wing”.
Hutaree is an anarchist apocalyptic organization.
The Hutarees are apolitical, and anarchists don’t fit on the usual left-right scale.
The Michigan militia might be considered “right-wing” and the Michigan militia cooperated with the FBI in the investigation and arrest of the Hutarees.
The “right-wing” label is a media invention.
Cop killers are leftwing.
(Btw, good troll bait thread!)
If Bolschevism is "left" and Fascism is "right", we're talking about two sides of a single coin.
And we, the constitutionalists, the classic liberal "conservatives" are no where on any continuum between the two.
We are a different creature altogether.
Because almost EVERYONE is to the RIGHT of Obama. The People who are to left of Obama are out there around the dark side of the moon coming around.
I would love to see a Talking Head asked that question: “Why do you say they are on the right?”
The only groups I can think of who made it a point to attack cops were the Weathermen. And the Panthers. So if these people are guilty, I suppose they must be somewhere between a Weatherman and a Panther.
I actually think they are dungeons-and-dragons wannabes, living in a makebelieve world. They aren’t anything.
See right-wing=violence in MSM world.
