A rare moment of honesty from the left. They have embraced fascism more and more as technology (the internet, cell phone video and pictures, social media apps, etc.) has disseminated facts and information and made it harder and harder for them to get away with their lies and propaganda. Kudos to this liberal for not only recognizing - but also publicly acknowledging - one of the biggest flaws with liberals today.

Kristof is one of the few lefties who occasionally publishes an honest opinion.

The pernicious evil of Leftism is that it refuses to debate any issue on its merits - they will lose. So they try to slander, silence, or obstruct the presentation of any viewpoint that they find offensive.

How many demonstrators are trying to close down HRC's or Sanders' rallies? ZERO. We don't want HRC to be silenced, we want people to actually listen to her to see how utterly patronizing and vacuous her statements and positions are.

I have none. I have no tolerance for people trying to destroy the U.S. Constitution and - unlike liberals - I don't preach "tolerance". Unlike liberals, I'm not a hypocrite. I walk my talk.

Outstanding post DGS49. I've long said that is how you know who is on the wrong side of the issue. Liberals are desperate to silence conservative voices like Glenn Beck and Sean Hannity. Conservatives LOVE when liberals like Keith Olbermann and Melissa Harris-Perry speak in public. With each breath they are their own worst enemy. If Beck and Hannity were even remotely wrong, liberals wouldn't waste their time trying to get them off the air. It's precisely because they are telling the truth that panics the left so much.

So the right is all about debating issues on their merits? Want to ask where Obama's birth certificate is again? Or accuse him of being a secret Muslim who will declare martial law and never leave office?

Look at how many of these have been fulfilled already.............

Communist Goals (1963) Congressional Record--Appendix, pp. A34-A35 January 10, 1963
Current Communist Goals EXTENSION OF REMARKS OF HON. A. S. HERLONG, JR. OF FLORIDA IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES Thursday, January 10, 1963 .
Mr. HERLONG. Mr. Speaker, Mrs. Patricia Nordman of De Land, Fla., is an ardent and articulate opponent of communism, and until recently published the De Land Courier, which she dedicated to the purpose of alerting the public to the dangers of communism in America.
At Mrs. Nordman's request, I include in the RECORD, under unanimous consent, the following "Current Communist Goals," which she identifies as an excerpt from "The Naked Communist," by Cleon Skousen:
[From "The Naked Communist," by Cleon Skousen]
1. U.S. acceptance of coexistence as the only alternative to atomic war.
2. U.S. willingness to capitulate in preference to engaging in atomic war.
3. Develop the illusion that total disarmament [by] the United States would be a demonstration of moral strength.
4. Permit free trade between all nations regardless of Communist affiliation and regardless of whether or not items could be used for war.
5. Extension of long-term loans to Russia and Soviet satellites.
6. Provide American aid to all nations regardless of Communist domination.
7. Grant recognition of Red China. Admission of Red China to the U.N.
8. Set up East and West Germany as separate states in spite of Khrushchev's promise in 1955 to settle the German question by free elections under supervision of the U.N.
9. Prolong the conferences to ban atomic tests because the United States has agreed to suspend tests as long as negotiations are in progress.
10. Allow all Soviet satellites individual representation in the U.N.
11. Promote the U.N. as the only hope for mankind. If its charter is rewritten, demand that it be set up as a one-world government with its own independent armed forces. (Some Communist leaders believe the world can be taken over as easily by the U.N. as by Moscow. Sometimes these two centers compete with each other as they are now doing in the Congo.)
12. Resist any attempt to outlaw the Communist Party.
13. Do away with all loyalty oaths.
14. Continue giving Russia access to the U.S. Patent Office.
15. Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States.
16. Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions by claiming their activities violate civil rights.
17. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers' associations. Put the party line in textbooks.
18. Gain control of all student newspapers.
19. Use student riots to foment public protests against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack.
20. Infiltrate the press. Get control of book-review assignments, editorial writing, policy-making positions.
21. Gain control of key positions in radio, TV, and motion pictures.
22. Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all forms of artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to "eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings, substitute shapeless, awkward and meaningless forms."
23. Control art critics and directors of art museums. "Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art."
24. Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them "censorship" and a violation of free speech and free press.
25. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio, and TV.
26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as "normal, natural, healthy."
27. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with "social" religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity, which does not need a "religious crutch."
28. Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the ground that it violates the principle of "separation of church and state."
29. Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old-fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.
30. Discredit the American Founding Fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the "common man."
31. Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history on the ground that it was only a minor part of the "big picture." Give more emphasis to Russian history since the Communists took over.
32. Support any socialist movement to give centralized control over any part of the culture--education, social agencies, welfare programs, mental health clinics, etc.
33. Eliminate all laws or procedures which interfere with the operation of the Communist apparatus.
34. Eliminate the House Committee on Un-American Activities.
35. Discredit and eventually dismantle the FBI.
36. Infiltrate and gain control of more unions.
37. Infiltrate and gain control of big business.
38. Transfer some of the powers of arrest from the police to social agencies. Treat all behavioral problems as psychiatric disorders which no one but psychiatrists can understand [or treat].
39. Dominate the psychiatric profession and use mental health laws as a means of gaining coercive control over those who oppose Communist goals.
40. Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce.
41. Emphasize the need to raise children away from the negative influence of parents. Attribute prejudices, mental blocks and retarding of children to suppressive influence of parents.
42. Create the impression that violence and insurrection are legitimate aspects of the American tradition; that students and special-interest groups should rise up and use ["]united force["] to solve economic, political or social problems.
43. Overthrow all colonial governments before native populations are ready for self-government.
44. Internationalize the Panama Canal.
45. Repeal the Connally reservation so the United States cannot prevent the World Court from seizing jurisdiction [over domestic problems. Give the World Court jurisdiction] over nations and individuals alike.

The pernicious evil of Leftism is that it refuses to debate any issue on its merits - they will lose. So they try to slander, silence, or obstruct the presentation of any viewpoint that they find offensive.

So the right is all about debating issues on their merits? Want to ask where Obama's birth certificate is again? Or accuse him of being a secret Muslim who will declare martial law and never leave office?

:rolleyes:


Do you really think that the press did a good job of vetting the Barrypuppet? I don't...it was a piss poor job and when Joe the plumber trapped the Barrypuppet with a question, the press jumped on ol Joe with both feet and we found out pretty much everything there was to know about "Joe the plumber". Barrypuppet's birth certificate is a total fraud and anyone that knows how to use any basic computer tools can take that document a aprt one layer at a time because they didn't compress the document and then copy it before they scanned it.

Have you ever seen Trumps birth certificate? It's an absolute Photoshopped nightmare.
 
Dale.........are you a Birther? I'm shocked.


I am saying that the American people were not given the truth about the Barrypuppet. The birth certificate that was put on line is easily dissected. It was a "cut and paste" job that wasn't compressed and then copied and then scanned before it was put on-line. Why does Barrypuppet's social security # tie him to Connecticut????

Wow! That's incredible! You really know your stuff! How do you have time to sleep with all the research you do? Every time I have a question....there you are....immediately....with an airtight answer.

I am not voting for either one but the topic is the Barrypuppet and his birth certificate that YOU brought up..........stay on topic, please.

What is the problem with a person who is on record stating they were (and I quote) "born in Kenya, raised in Indonesia" being required to provide proof that they are a legal U.S. citizen before running for President? :cuckoo:

Interestingly enough - 'ole Barack never was able to provide an actual birth certificate. It took him many months as the most powerful man in the world to suddenly produce a "certificate of live birth". And here is the best part. How does a person as dirt-poor as Barry Soetoro attend both Columbia (for undergraduate work) and Harvard (for post graduate work)? Two exclusive Ivy League institutions. Could it be that he attended free as a "foreign exchange student"?

Could it be that he was in fact born in the U.S. but cheated the American tax payer by filing as a foreign student born overseas and that is why he wanted to run from the issue? :dunno:

Instead of "Keeping up with the Kardashians" - some of us keep up with current events. It's not as hard as you think. It just requires a vastly different mindset from the mindless liberal mindset.

So the impression that I am getting from you is that people that question anything that challenges the status quo is some kind of "conspiracy theorist", right? Do you know that the CIA had a clandestine program to use that phrase as a way to demonize those that questioned the results of the Warren report?

I am thinking that is exactly the case. Where Barrypuppet was born isn't the issue. You don't have to be born in America to be the CEO of Wal-Mart so why should someone have to be born here to be the figurehead of USA.INC? It's the deception and sneakiness that pisses me off.
