Left or right? Right or wrong? Liberalism is a disease, and I’m just trying to be part of the cure!

It’s not about left and right, it’s about right and wrong.

You’ve probably seen the bumper sticker or t-shirt and maybe you chuckled. Maybe it made you angry. Maybe it made you think. I did the latter recently. You see, liberal democrats constantly claim to be the party of the people. They constantly argue that they’re the ones fighting for the little guy. They say they’re the ones fighting for minorities. Those ideas couldn’t be further from the truth. The liberal democrat mindset exploits the weak by getting them hooked on government programs. They stir up racism by dividing people and promoting wedge issues. They promote discrimination as a rule of thumb because they believe that they are smarter than you and that they can run your life better than you can!

The liberal democrat mindset is in direct opposition of freedom to think, freedom to act, and freedom to speak. It really is about right versus wrong, instead of right versus left.

That truth is never more apparent than when you look at the issue of how liberals disrespect life. I’m not just talking about the abortion issue either. I’m not just talking about euthanasia (although both of these topics provide plenty of tragic evidence for the way liberals feel about life). But, I think the very way they look at a life shows how much disregard they have for it. They see people as numbers or objects.

I was in a conversation with a lefty the other day. We were talking about an issue I’ve ranted about quite a bit. The new law that went to effect in Minnesota that allows a 12-year -old to get birth control, and the morning after pill, without parental consent. I heard several arguments in favor of this ridiculous law. First came the argument that, “Well they’re going to do it anyways, so we might as well educate them and provide for them….” That is failed logic because if you use that argument, you might as well do away with all laws altogether and live in complete anarchy (people are going to speed anyways, so let’s just get rid of speeding laws). A failure to achieve perfect results is never a solid argument against absolutes and principles.

The gentlemen I was chatting with then went on to talk about the benefits of birth control being more widely available. It didn’t take 2 minutes before he had somehow twisted his argument into saying that we have a population control problem, and that we need to look to countries like China as examples for child birth policy.

Excuse me?! China??? One of the worst human rights violators on the planet? In China they allow you to have one, and only one, child. If you intentionally or accidentally have more you are levied with a huge fine from the government. This puts an incredible financial burden on families that are already struggling in this third world country. What is the result? It’s not pretty. There is a total disrespect for life in China. People are treated as numbers and objects, not people. Families that want a boy instead of a girl, which might help the family to be financially better off, go so far as to kill their little girls because they want a boy instead.

This mindset is totally depraved and completely disrespects human life. Unfortunately this is the mindset of many liberals. It is disgusting, it is disturbing, and next time you hear a “progressive” liberal tell you that they’re fighting for the people, tell them to stick it where the sun don’t shine.

Liberalism is a disease. I’m just trying to be part of the cure!
