Bullies: How the Left Silences Opposition

Ben Shapiro has a new book out discussing the bully tactics of the left, which is to essentially paint the right as awful people without value. As he also says it only works with the complicity of the media which pretends to be neutral but acts to reinforce the "conservative don't care" message. 

This problem is compounded by the fact that the average voter has only the most fleeting familiarity with the facts. They instead prefer to consume the slanted pablum the media offers.

"

The left’s favorite bully tactic is painting its opposition as morally deficient and unworthy of being part of the conversation. The left uses this tactic on virtually every topic. Sequestration? It turns out that those dastardly right-wingers just want to hurt first responders and teachers. Gun control? Those conservatives just don’t care about dead kids. Gay marriage? Conservatives hate homosexuals. Once you paint your opposition as morally bankrupt, you don’t have to win the debate. You win by default. That’s the basis of the political correctness movement.

But the left couldn’t get away with any of this without the media. The media are the greatest of all the leftist bullies, because they play at objectivity while sliding the knife in as deep as humanly possible. By lying to the American people about their disinterested reportage, they are able to convince Americans that people of good heart cannot take conservatives seriously. That’s a damaging message.

Don Cherry lambastes the Left

"Put that in your pipes, you left wing kooks!"

That's how Don Cherry ended his introduction of Rob Ford as Toronto's new mayor. He had just finished a story about a lady who was mistreated and then stonewalled by City Hall, and how the day after Ford was sworn in she was compensated for her loss. He had also described the personal attacks from the left that he endured just for being asked to introduce Ford. That's because political liberals always resort to ad hominem attacks on non-liberals when threatened. Don Cherry is religious, so the left naturally hates him.

I fervently hope this inspires more public figures to speak out like Cherry about the damage that liberal thinking does in politics. Liberals in power will suspend all our rights and bankrupt everyone before they will admit their ideas are proven failures.

The Left: What's it good for?

Liberal thinking people, such as Democratic supporters in America, (and in Canada, supporters of every party but the Conservatives) make excellent artists, musicians, live performers, and writers. They also have many obvious skills in business, from marketing to engineering. In fact, if you add them up, there are literally thousands of things liberal thinkers do extremely well.

Politics, however, is NOT one of them. And neither is public safety.

Liberal thinkers want to help and Save Something, Anything, Now! Often this means Every Single Person on earth. Often you find liberals who go further and equate humans with worms, and then it includes Every Creature We Know. It's their nature.

Unfortunately, liberal thinkers who get into politics also love government. BIG government and BIG taxes. They see it as their big chance to save the world with other peoples' money. Liberals live to govern; they see it as their calling. They spend their lives trying to convince us that we desperately need them to save us from every financial and personal risk that might ever happen.

Unfortunately when it comes to security they would rather impose more and more restrictions on their own people than truly fight the problem.

Political liberal thinking can be boiled down to a few words: "Just a few more taxes, nude body scanners and breast groping and we'll cure everything and protect everyone!" Sadly, most of the spending any government does is misdirected, wasted, or skimmed by the bureaucracy, lawyers, and the like. Most liberal government security dollars are wasted further on restricting innocent citizens' lives rather than on criminals and terrorists. They'd rather fondle our breasts and balls than focus on the real security threat, which is basically any Muslim. We have a lot less to show for our freedoms, economic health and personal security when liberals are doing the spending. It's their nature.

Liberals simply love to harness up wealth producers like horses to carry them and their grand plans along. They support ever expanding welfare schemes regardless of the taxpayers plight, because only they care. Plus, they OWN the rights to compassion®.

Schadenfreude: Hot Air Bag "Air America" finally deflates

Air America is going off the air. Good bye and good riddance. Another voice against freedom bites the dust!

Of course, it couldn't have anything to do with the idea that even mainstream Democratic voters are now being repulsed by the radical left policies of the likes of Franken, Pelosi, Reid, and Obama,* now could it?

Har de har har. Looks good on the American left. Their ideas are so bad no one wants to discuss them.

All of the above named people and many more should be publicly shamed and then banished (for reckless endangerment of the USA).

Canada will not cave in quietly to the Global Warming Fraud

Good news this week. It appears that our Conservative government will not bend over and take it up the economic pooper in Copenhagen (what a loserville place to debate world issues anyway) in order to satisfy the western econut lobby. Unlike the rest of our limp noodle political parties, the Conservatives seem bent on defending our country, its culture, and its right to exist. Plus they know that it is all a scam.

The self hating liberals that infest western democracies want us to surrender our wealth and children's futures so that the overpopulated third world can catch up to us economically, without actually having to modernize (or liberalize!) themselves or their cultures. THEY are free to produce more babies than they can afford and then demand that you and I pay for their children and ultimately their culture. And all of it with no regard for their own "carbon footprints".

It's as though they're demanding a guaranteed income from us while they ignore every pollution problem we've recognized and solved. The Western left, which wants one-world, UN style government, is only too happy to volunteer our wealth to the third world in exchange for one-government power.

Prime Minister Harper's response to the coalition threat

I think Stephen Harper delivered a statesmanlike speech that assured ordinary Canadians that the government had many things in progress to ensure the best interests of Canadians. Contrast it with the hysterical rantings of our Official Traitors, the Liberals, NDP and Bloc.

Canada's left has finally been exposed as nothing more than grasping kleptocrats who think only of themselves first, last and always.
