What?
bttt
Like a trendy fashion, blame has been quite focused..."It's Bush's fault!"
That is so funny!!
Any questions, class?
(Mr. Lopez-Calderon may not be "pulling a Whittaker Chambers," but Whittaker Chambers would be proud of him anyway.)
Thats not far of, I read a recent FrontPage article about how the radical left, including Sheehan, gets many supporters from among the David Dukes, National Socialist Movement, Aryan Nations and even Stormfront. They all use the same anti-Bush, anti-jew and anti-freedom rhetoric after all.
Outstanding read. Thanks for posting it.
This guy is from my generation. At the point he turned left, I turned right. It is interesting to me that we meet again here in the waning days of a free American republic. He is one of the people who helped push us to the edge of totalitarian socialism. Maybe others like him will wake up before it is too late. Welcome back, Michael.
Good post, I am late now but it was worth it.
The author and I share similar ages and experiences. Perhaps I was not a liberal, and because I witnessed all these same things WHILE I was living in the heartland of liberalism: The San Francisco Bay Area. This experience is what belied, to me, the teachings of the left. Those espousing the leftist agenda were very mean, self-absorbed people. As far back as the early 70s? Disagree or dare to discuss the left agenda, with a true believer? They'd come at you so fast with verbal abuse, shaming stick, and they'd tell all their friends about YOU. They showed me that civil rights and civility was not at all what they wanted.
As young as I was, this is what showed me clearly, these people were not about peace, discourse, open minds, dialogue, and the like.
I'm glad the author has seen the light -- it really is so much more liberating to be on this side of the political aisle, than the liberal side.
On this side of the aisle, you can actually stand FOR something. It's a far more honorable life, than the alternative.
AH how nice to see the TRUTH in black and white.
As far back as the late 50s/early 60s. Definitely in the late 60s. Probably even before that. Since it is an ideology of hate, they make no distinction and turn on each other if they cannot successfully bring down their enemy du jour.
The Shun has always been an internal tactic on the Left. Especially in the upper levels of cadre, where everyone is vying for distinctions of ideological purity.
I always found it amusing that people who made a fetish of anti-competition were rabidly competitive within their own ranks.
Yep, lol. You know them well.
I just gotta share with you this pic, from NRO "The Buzz" in re the lefty protest in re Katrina. Have any comments? lol
Ah, the miseducation congregation.
My, my.. and for all these years, they've fought against a religious "shaming stick". lol.
It's come around.
Karma is hitting the left, and they don't even realize it. They can stare at that picture for hours on end, and still not.. see.
I always say that having known them intimately, I came to loathe them completely. They will abandon this tack the moment anything else even slightly less lame presents itself.
So, uh, are you suggesting that despite how well planned, well financed they are -- they were still caught running on the short-side?
Hey! I remember when Harvey Milk and Mayor Mascone were shot in SF. The leftist brigades were out in the streets of the Financial district nearly immediately with silk screened" arm bands in black.
I always wondered -- how they knew. In advance. Or are they really just that "gifted" in mass production means on the fly. For "oppressed people" who assert to be anti-capitalist, anti-corporation -- I always remember how quick the left had their armbands out on the streets so quickly. My, my.
Maybe they had "iron-on" templates (long before it was available by and for mass means). That's it! From Women with Clothes Lines, they had Women With Irons! Must be it, no?
Note of interest: Those armbands were BEFORE the days of the colored ribbons (pink, aids, etc.)
