The Leftist propaganda machine is so successful that most conservatives have internalized some of its falsehoods never knowing they are just that. It even controls the institutions most antithetical to Leftism, the churches.
But I find it incomprehensible, that I have to argue the facts and be upbraided for posting the TRUTH, by someone who calls himself a Conservative and then says that he came here to "learn". Sheeeeeeeeeeeesh!
Indeed. It is what Rush calls, "the liberal template" and what others have referred to as "the liberal default".
For example, the liberal default is that government is helpful to the poor and therefore any attempt to reduce the size and scope of government amounts to an attack against the poor. That default position cannot be challenged - - it is the template. Mentioning, for example, that the socialist welfare state, (aka, "the New Deal", "the Great Society", etc.) has destroyed the urban black family unit is strictly verbotten.
