And if you don’t believe how far left the Democrats have lurched when I say it, here’s authentication from Alan Colmes who, after ignoring all the evidence about who Van Jones actually is and what he believes, and pretending that it’s all a Glenn Beck-World Net Daily-Horowitz plot, concludes “Van Jones is a mainstream liberal.” That’s exactly right Alan. And that’s exactly the problem.
How did things get to this pass? Let me just single out one problem, because it’s the one conservatives can actually affect. And that is to start calling things by their right names. The timidity and cowardice of Republicans towards Democratic Party outrages of this nature is a principal culprit. When you call Communists “liberals,” it legitimizes them. The time has come to stop it. To stop the charade, stick your head out the window and say “I’m mad as hell and I’m not going to take it anymore.”
