Re: Liberals gone wild!

It is really interesting to me to see just how consistently, the game called "psychological projection" is a rampant dynamic among you "righties".

YOU aren't opposed to free speech? Just re-read what you wrote! And the government is NOT clamping down on free speech, are you kidding? That is just the point: Government has no business (at least in a supposedly free country) to call and offer to "educate" the people (better known as lying and brainwashing). Even if it was a sincere and honest "education", the point would still remain the same: People must be left OFFICIALLY free to think for themselves. Once again, like all other Republicans I have seen, you are publicly confessing ignorance and incompetence. It is shocking to me! Don't you realize, that any time the government controls philosophy, analysis, etc that controls become more and more stringent? Don't you know that little bits of well-intended powers become increasingly oppressive, ultimately even murderous? Conspiracy theory?? Oh yeah??? Just look at the Patriot Act, at legalized torture, at secretive wiretapping: Are YOU out of your mind?? Psychological projection, once again: You Repubs are very, very good at that!

Did it ever occur to you, that in looking out for civil rights, we are trying to protect YOU, too? Same team, folks! "A house divided against itself cannot stand" --Abraham Lincoln
