There is no greater enemy of civil liberties in America than your standard self-righteous, crusading liberal.
As with every famous world leader who ever called themselves something liberal (Stalin-Communist, Hitler-Nazi stands for National Socialist, Castro-Communist, Kim Jong Il-Communist, Hillary Clinton-Socialist), American liberals, EVERY TIME the chips are down, can be found siding against freedom (unless it is for child molesters or Muslim terrorists).
Exhibit A: Ann Coulter was recently invited to speak at the University of Connecticut as a counterpoint speaker to Cindy Sheehan.
-Cindy Sheehan (who has no qualifications to speak on this matter, and is often incorrect in her assertions) was invited without incident. Ann Coulter (who is a law scholar with major qualifications) was invited despite death threats and organized efforts to suppress her speech.
-Cindy Sheehan spoke without even being questioned about parading her dead son around to conduct a partisan smear campaign. Ann Coulter was screamed down by this liberal, “pro-diversity” crowd before she could get a word in. Some free exchange of ideas. THIS is EXACTLY why universities are not viewed as a forum for intellectual growth and debate. They aren’t. They are a staging ground for liberal brainwashing and propaganda (our tax dollars at work) followed by harassment, arm-twisting, and outright assault for anyone who dares to question them. (There are entire organizations dedicated to exposing and neutralizing this kind of extreme bias and violations of civil rights in universities across the country. They are called Accuracy in Academia, Campus watch, etc.).
And we’re supposed to believe that liberals represent civil liberties? On what planet? They ALWAYS choose tyranny over liberty when it becomes remotely difficult for them to practice what they preach. Republicans just simply are not like this.
The reason is that every time Republicans open up a magazine, turn on the news, watch a movie, or read the newspaper, conservative views are being outrageously and falsely smeared or excluded from the entire thing while liberal views are mindlessly regurgitated and propagandized for (some, like NPR and the NY Times require more thought to catch how much they stack the deck against conservative viewpoints because they apply an air of neutrality; they make phony “balance” statements to make things look evenly covered; they use sophisticated language and elaborately skewed poll numbers, but their agendas are well-evidenced and insanely left-wing).
The point is Republicans are use to hearing opinions that disagree with, denigrate, and lie about their views. Liberals rarely experience dissent of any kind unless they look for it, so when they do experience dissent, they cannot engage it intellectually, and thus move swiftly to suppress it.
Liberals are use to being patted on the head and called courageous for attacking conservatives and regurgitating DNC rhetoric. Why WOULD they be capable of real debate?
If Ann Coulter really is some right wing hack with nothing to say, than letting her speak would be the best way to defeat her. This is how I defeat liberals all the time. They are wrong, and I know it, so I let THEM disprove themselves. You only have to suppress speech when the speaker has a point to be reckoned with.
Liberals simply cannot handle Ann Coulter intellectually, so they prove her right and react with mindless, Neanderthal threats of violence, blatantly false personal attacks (Al Franken champions this particular feature-as I catalogued in another thread), and suppression of her speech.
