"We don't have as big a megaphone as these guys, but this all political, and we'll do what we can to gain the advantage. If we can take them off their game for a while, it will help our folks out there on the campaign trail." Wesley Clark, in his own ham-handed way, had already shown the left's cards when he was making the TV circuit over the past couple of weeks. His remarks had to do with Congressional oversight over political speech on the airwaves. Hillary herself made it clear that the so-called "progressives" needed to do better combating the "other side" in the public forums. She was obviously speaking of so-called "conservative" radio. She put a red bulls eye on their backs. Since we're actually speaking of the Oppressives (these folks are not Progressive by any stretch), what they're all really saying is that their "side" and their "people" couldn't construct the arguments for the Oppressives well enough in the public forums to get their message across. So, since they couldn't seem to do it with their Air Americas, etc., they're going to do it through exhausting and smacking down the "other side." It's a typical Oppressive tactic and shows what these people are really all about. That's right, the same ones who wail about potential incursions on liberty or privacy under the Patriot Act are doing all they can to stifle the First Amendment rights of commentators because commentators of their own stripe cannot compete in the marketplace of ideas. I wonder if people with good faith liberal leanings are offended by this behavior or whether those in the Oppressive party are just so brain-washed that they've lost the ability to reason or realize that their leadership regards them as mindless sheeple. If they even slightly analyzed this last round of fundraising activity, they'd surely know they'd been had. But that isn't likely to happen. The brainwashing has been too extensive. Pity.
