  1. “As they say at David Horowitz’s FrontPage Magazine, ‘Inside every liberal is a totalitarian screaming to get out.'”

    And how. If there’s one good thing to come out of the rise of “Il Dufe,” especially now in his second term as Red Diaper Baby in the White House, is that the masks have slipped, and the face of the enemy has never been clearer..

  2. I saw that yesterday. Utterly appalling. Yet this kind of totalitarian-sound crap is coming out more and more from the left.

    Years and years ago, I used to think the biggest danger to our freedoms generally came from the right. But that’s clearly not true.

    1. Even if we start with the viewpoint that the right is the greater danger, experience has shown that sooner or later a right-wing candidate achieves power. So every power fantasy that gets enacted now will leave the gates open a bit wider and the chains a bit looser for that future right-wing administration.

      It is folly to give such power to those you deem so dangerous. So what can we say of fools who can’t even be bothered to consider such things? Who might not even be able to understand the problems they’re creating for themselves?

      I certainly don’t want that kind of person anywhere near power.

  3. Under Obama’s rules for new civility, calling for the execution of Obama’s political opponents is acceptable. And Democrats wonder why people think Obama ordered the IRS to go on the attack.
