Dean Baquet, Executive Editor of the NYT: The left, as a rule, does not want to hear thoughtful disagreement

[DoughtyOne]

Yes, and as a general rule your paper doesn’t want to print it.

[ptsal]

That’s a headline worth repeating.

[datricker]

Am I in bizarroland or does common sense seem to be prevailing more so than normal today?

The left, as a rule, does not want to hear thoughtful disagreement

ISIS and Al-Qaeda and all Radical Muslim terrorists, feel exactly the same as "the left". If the left in America had their way, they would take their violent disagreements to the ultimate end of beheading those they disagree with, but they're being stopped by the U.S. Constitution.

The left can best be compared to how Kim Jun Un behaves. Exactly the same hind of thought pattern and behavior.

They are being stopped by the Second Amendment. In fact, it was stopped as long ago as the turn of the last century. ( Read Upton Sinclair's book “Oil”.)

In a small room in the mind of every leftist politician lives the Second Amendment.

Ideas have consequences! - Weaver

The ideas of freedom, expressed in the nation's Declaration of Independence and structured into its limited government by the Constitution produce ordered liberty, freedom, opportunity and plenty; whereas, the ideas of tyranny as exemplified in the ideology of Progressive thought produce license and oppression, limited opportunity and declining wealth for a nation and for individuals, with acceptance of elitists who act as overlords.

[DoughtyOne]

Yes, it is.

I think FReepers would be crazy to pass up an opportunity to thank this person and wish him well.

If (God Forbid) they ever succeed in eliminating the Second Amendment, the balloon goes up that very day.

[JPJones]

wow stop the presses.

[Veto!]

And he self-identifies as a leftist, then backs up and says, well, no, I’m a journalist. What else would you expect from the NYT?

[Mr. Jeeves]

But it’s a great system for the overlords - and every single Leftist thinks they deserve to and will inevitably become one.

[Secret Agent Man]

Cannot handle it.

[Hardastarboard]

In that sense, I was Ready for Hillary, if you know what I mean.

[Elsie]

The left, as a rule, does not want to hear thoughtful ANY disagreement

[EveningStar]

Unfortunately, quite a few folks here can’t handle disagreement either. :(

[KC Burke]

You know, my copy of that from almost 20 years ago seems to be lost. So just a month ago, I ordered an e-reader version and now have it with me all the time. There were things in there that gave me “eureka” moments twenty years ago and still today I have to pound my fist on the table as I read them again.

[Elsie]

I agree with that.

Wait...

[mulligan]

That is the result of being brain dead.
