The left’s take on the new right

I have no problem with bi-partisan bickering.  It’s what makes up the political fabric of this great nation.  I do wish we had tri-partisan or even google-partisan bickering going on.  Leaving us with only two uber-corrupt parties to choose from is less than desireable in a country that is supposed to be as great as the United States of America.  But it is what it is.

What’s killing me lately is the downright disingenuous rhetoric of the left and especially that coming from the president himself about the Tea Party movement.  Of course I understand that they have to fight against this new power base to keep their foothold, or rather their chokehold on America.  It wouldn’t be so bad if it weren’t just so blatently ignorant and made up.

I had a discussion on Facebook today with a gay friend of mine after I used a quote from Glenn Beck about being yourself and not letting the world dictate who and what you are.  His response was to tell me that if Glenn and his ‘ilk’ had it their way that he would have no place in America.  Well that couldn’t be farther from the truth.  He also told me that part of Glenn’s message is that all gays are predators.

This brings me to a gripe I’ve had since I became familiar with the ignorance and closed minded hypocrisy of my beloved leftist hippie friends when I became an avid follower of the Grateful Dead.  For people who are supposedly so open minded, broad minded and who proclaim to be so accepting of all types and all creeds, these people sure don’t pay attention to anything except what strokes their pleasure centers.  Talk about a bunch of confused blind-leading-the-blind, malcontent, do-gooders.

It really is quite simple.  Those who hate what is happening on the political right lately have no other choice but to make up the vitriol that keeps people from feeling the need to research for themselves the messages of the Tea Party movement.  If they analyzed the truth of the message they would be confounded into agreeing with it.

Their power is at stake.  They have to lie, it’s the only way they can continue on their course.  After all, their path has been paved with lies and the rhetoric and politics of fear, calling white black and black white, truth error and error truth.  They will tell you up is down and believe it.  They have to.  If they told the truth they would be exposed for the rats they are.
