How is the left crippling itself? They’ve been getting everything they want?
I’d like to believe this but the evidence does not bear it out. The Left has been winning most of the battles on both the economic and social issues. No one was for gay marriage 20 years ago. Now its a given. A deficit of $1 trillion would have been obscene to most politicians, even Democrats, 20 years ago. Now both Dems and Republicans are OK with it. The Left screams and threatens and digs in and, after an initial period of being flustered, the Right accepts the Left’s position. And its precisely because the Left screams and threatens and demands. Its sad but it works.
When just one of:
Associated Press
Reuters
BBC
APF
NBC television entertainment OR news
CBS television entertainment OR news
ABC television entertainment OR news
NBC radio
CBS radio
ABC radio
MSNBC
CNN
NPR
PBS
are toppled and put out of existence, AND/OR:
any of the big three lose their license monopoly for channels 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13
then that will be the first sign that the left is somehow crippling itself. A Republican Congress won’t event smash NPR or PBS funding. It is over. We are finished.

George Orwell predicted today's totalitarian socialist strategies, basing his novels on the totalitarian socialists of his time:
Forty years it had taken him to learn what kind of smile was hidden beneath the dark mustache . . . But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved Big Brother
that was good.
