I recently watched a "made-for-TV" movie called 'The Contender' which was about a woman who was nominated by the President to take over as Vice President in his administration. It was first broadcast about five years ago.
This movie was as brazenly and sickenly liberal as it gets. During hearings before Congress, the nominee speechified about how big-government and liberal/socialist policy WAS her religion. It was jaw dropping. You had to see it to believe it, but it shamelessly and clearly exemplified the common liberal mindset.
There were some threads about it on here when it came out. I saw it. It made Gary Oldham's character, the conservative senator, a real characature and glorified the libs. Usual pap!
Liberalism IS a "faith" whose bottom line premise is the "basic goodness" of human beings. Those who hold that faith "believe" that utopia on earth is possible with the right leadership.
Our founding documents are based upon the premise that even though people are capable of doing good, fallen man is NOT basically good, and therefore men must be protected from each other by a totally objective rule of law undergirding a Constitution that guards absolute moral truths concerning the source of mankind's rights.
