Mr. K, sorry to butt in here, but I would like to comment on your post.
Personally, I agree with you about "opinion polls"; it would be nice to ban them, at least around election time. But as you point out, that would not be constitutional.
But again, I do not agree that "the left" (whatever that is) is responsible for fostering such notions as "the freedom from guilt, freedom from responsibility,freedom of choosing anything", etc. Some time ago, in a post to you, I suggested that the real propagator of the "anything goes" morality you deplore is the commercialism/consumerism/hucksterism that has come to dominate our society as a result of the technological revolution of the last 40 years. You never did respond to that post. How about a reaction? :-))
Oh, yes, and how would you characterize the Libertarians? They are pro-choice. Are Libertarians leftist?
