What is the left’s problem with Free Speech
Seriously, why does the left uniformly try to silence anyone who dares to disagree with them?
Latest example, democrat Senator Carl Levin of Michigan, who wants conservative voices removed from the public airways.
Just why are those on the left afraid of the free and open exchange of ideas? Is it because they know their policies would not survive in a truly open and honest exchange of ideas?
Probably.

“Barack Obama has been a terrible president in many ways, but perhaps his most poisonous legacy is his cynical fomenting of partisan hate to advance his own political interests. After three years, we have learned that ‘hope’ is not the word that we should associate with the Obama presidency.”

I’m thinking no. It’s a leftist insulting a conservative. No foul in the liberal media’s view.
The BCC reports on the effect the Obama economy is having on Americans.
… Tent cities have sprung up in and around at least 55 American cities – they represent the bleak reality of America’s poverty crisis.
… One of the largest tented camps is in Florida and is now home to around 300 people. Others have sprung up in New Jersey and Portland.
… There are an estimated 5,000 people living in the dozens of camps that have sprung up across America
The largest camp, Pinella’s Hope in central Florida – a region better known for the glamour of Disneyworld – is made up of neat rows of tents spread out across a 13-acre plot.
… The stark reality is that many of them are people who very recently lived comfortable middle-class lives
For them, the economic downturn came too fast and many have been forced to trade their middle-class homes for lives in shelters, motels and at the far extreme, tented encampments.
WHOM DO YOU BELIEVE? HBO OR GALLUP?
Mary Katharine Ham on leftist hypocrisy.
Cindy Sheehan on the democrat’s dishonest use of the anti-war movement for their political gain.
I’m betting that you never heard one peep from the liberal media about her being arrested, twice, protesting outside the White House, after GW Bush left and Barack Hussein Obama moved in.

Factual Observations about the US Federal Debt
Filed under: economy, Obama Economy, Our Dear Leader, Politics
Let’s look at this data and what it shows.
• The vaunted “Clinton Surplus” was, in fact, the work of a GOP House that was willing to fight for fiscal sanity (current Ohio Governor John Kasich was one of the architects of the surplus); in addition, two events conspired toturbocharge the economy — in spite of Clinton, not because of him.
• Liberals like to talk about Reagan’s deficits, but they ignore the fact that every budget Reagan ever sent to the Democrat-controlled House was declared “dead on arrival”. Reagan supported a Balanced Budget Amendment, sought to eliminate useless agencies like the Department of Education, and otherwise believed in the U.S. spending within its means.
• Since the Democrats took control of Congress in 2007, they have jammed through the most fiscally irresponsible spending programs in world history (I won’t use the word “budget”, because they’ve refused to propose a budget for roughly 1,029 days).
In short, Democrats never propose less spending than Republicans — unless we’re talking about defense. And now, after four years of Democrat-controlled spending, the federal government is forced to borrow 40 cents for every dollar it spends.

The “anti-war” “left” was used by the Democratic Party. I like to call it the “anti-Republican War” movement.
While I agree with you about the hypocrisy of such sites as the DailyKos, I have known for a long time that the Democrats are equally responsible with the Republicans. That’s why I left the party in May 2007 and that’s why I ran for Congress against Nancy Pelosi in 2008.
How did the tolerant and opened mined liberals in the far left extremist Nancy Pelosi’s district react to Ms. Sheehan running against their sitting Congressional rep?
They slashed the tires on Cindy Sheehan’s van.
R.I.P Andrew Breitbart
Andrew Breitbart, cultural warrior for America, died today.
Condolences to his family and friends.
Joshua Trevino made an excellent observation:
Of course, the left is responding in their typical “new civility”, open minded and tolerant fashion.
Yup, cheering the death of someone who dared to disagree with them. Color me not surprised.
The Texas Public Policy Foundation shows more class than your typical leftist.
“The passing of Andrew Breitbart is a cause for much sorrow – but the life of Andrew Breitbart was a cause for much joy. Every defender of liberty takes heart in his accomplishments, and now in his legacy. He reminded us of things that should never be forgotten: that the truth has more power than the lie, that freedom defeats oppression, and that we must fight for both every waking day. He was a genius of the communicative art, and a pioneer in the marriage of new media to enduring principle. We walk in his footsteps, and our only regret is that we can no longer stand in his shadow.
“The Communications team of the Texas Public Policy Foundation bids farewell to Andrew Breitbart: this happy warrior, this American.”
If you haven’t been already, you should be reading Big Government and Big Journalism.
If you haven’t read his book, Righteous Indignation: Excuse Me While I Save the World yet, pick up and do so. It was one of my book picks from last year.
Andrew Breitbart tells the story of his transformation from clueless college student majoring in (anti-)American Studies to a warrior for the Constitution and for honesty in in reporting from the main stream media. He explains in detail about collaboration between theDNC and the Media Complex (which includes TV News, print magazines and the film industry) and how to use new media to combat them and win! In chapter 7, he lays out his game plan for fighting the left in details some of the highlights include: Don’t be afraid to go into enemy territory; Don’t let the Complex use its PC lexicon to characterize you and shape the narrative; Ubiquity is key; and Truth isn’t mean. It’s truth. Leftist will try to talk about “your truth” and “their truth”, which is bullshit. There is just the truth.

Best Documentary of the political season
By documentary, I mean an actual documentary that fits the definition of a documentary, unlike the propaganda films put out by the massively obese hack who’s best, and most honest, work was Canadian Bacon.
Sarah Palin: The Undefeated tells the actual truth behind Sarah Palin’s career in Alaskan politics, here brief stint as John McCain’s running mate, how the left made it their primary goal to destroy her personally, and how how she turned leaving the Governorship of Alaska in the wake of hyper partisan personal attacks into a role in National politics that allowed her to be a far more public voice in the lower 48, leading to the record breaking 2010 elections that handed defeat after defeat to the far left democrat leadership.
This movie presents the facts that the left and their media puppets don’t want you to know. The story that they want to drown in hate filled screeds repeating lie after lie, instead of debating the actual truth of her record.
Gov. Palin passed the left’s Kobayashi Maru test, for which they hate her even more for.
