I will point out the one central error in all that.
This is NOT about the left's propagandistic "politics of personal destruction" (which, if I'm not mistaken, is a famous Goebbels-like CARVILLE-invented term.)
This is, however, a civil war. A civil war that started when you and I were in junior high school, if not earlier. The domestic enemy is not a LOYAL opposition, and has earned none of the rights of one (such as discourse.)
They were winning, until some in America DID start calling a "spade a spade" (to use your term.) Now they are TRANSPARENT, and we have almost purged them from our politics. Purging them from academia, the "arts", the professions, the judiciary, commerce, and the media, is also well under way.
"Politics of personal destruction" was a far-too-easy term that Carville and his evil pals knew would fool at least the weak-minded in the pro-American community. But-like everything ever uttered by the Clinton machine-it's CRAP.
This is about the politics of POLITICAL destruction. And a lack of ruthlessness for the first three decades of this civil war is why the domestic enemy is still around. (Blame the absence of term limits for that. Career Congressmembers are natural-born cowards.)
THAT is CHANGING, and CYBERKEN is merely an early-not an original-voice. You'll wear out your keyboard if you try to ban all the ones who are on the way... |
