When I was a liberal

When I was a liberal, 
in the late 1960's, 
and early 1970s, 
we did not trust 
the government.

We favored 
free speech.

We believed 
everyone 
was entitled 
to their 
own opinion, 
but not to
their own facts. 

We certainly hated 
the Vietnam War, 
and presidents who 
fought that 
losing war, 
but we still loved 
our freedom, 
and our country.


Today, in the U.S.,
liberals are 
a dying breed 
-- replaced by 
"progressives", 
socialists and 
Marxists -- 
as a group, 
I call them 
"leftists".

Leftists ONLY trust 
the government.

Leftists reject 
free speech
 ... unless you 
agree with them, 
otherwise 
they claim 
you're spouting 
"hate speech".

That means 
everyone 
is NOT 
entitled 
to their 
own opinion.

And they 
seem to hate 
the United 
States too.

The only people 
IN THE WORLD, 
outside of Iran, 
who protested 
the killing of the 
top Iranian terrorist,
killed INSIDE IRAQ, 
after he organized 
an attack on the 
US embassy in Iraq, 
were American leftists !

MSNBC initially
reported that
30 Americans 
had died
in the Iranian 
counter attack, 
with glee,
even though
the truth was 
that no 
Americans 
were injured.

Only horrible people 
would favor a vicious
Muslim terrorist. 


Unfortunately, 
leftists also believe 
they are entitled 
to their own "facts".

That's been obvious 
to me since I began 
reading about 
climate science 
in 1997.

Their predictions 
of climate doom 
were always 
junk science --
pure nonsense, 
not real science.

More recently: 
In the past 
three years, 
the imaginary 
"Trump collusion 
with Russia", was
reported as reality !

Most leftists 
still believe 
that fake news.

Many leftists 
believe Russia
caused Trump 
to win the 
2016 election, 
in the absence
of any evidence 
to prove that.


Leftists live 
in their own 
fantasy world, 
where they 
invent their 
own "facts", 
and 
no evidence 
is required 
to justify 
their factoids, 
beyond their
statement:
"Because
we say so.".

Always angry 
leftists will 
ridicule and 
harass people 
who are 
equipped 
with real facts, 
that they use 
to refute 
the imaginary 
leftist "facts".

For a leftist,
ridicule and
character 
attacks 
ARE
"debate".


The next two articles 
are two very recent fake 
leftist "drive by media" 
stories.
