		<description>Surely the new axiom of the left is: &quot;Better dead than not liberal!&quot;

This reflects their insane wish to uphold &quot;civil liberties&quot; in the face of anihilation. Of course, those civil liberties are theirs, not yours or mine. You use the word &quot;niggardly&quot; and your typical liberal, ill-educated dolt that he is, will want you in chokey, sacked from your job, fined an outrageous amount as soon as look at you.

The point is, that the right to life is the greatest liberty we have. It is the Government&#039;s job to defend that right.

		<description>One of the most shocking things about today&#039;s liberals is their near-total historical ignorance. This allows them to present Bush as some sort of monster destroying civil liberties without contemplating the far-more egregious restrictions on civil liberties of former Presidents during previous wars (such as Roosevelt, Wilson, Lincoln). The strange thing is how they get away with this with people who should know better.

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;That the “openness” that liberal society rightly cherishes is not a vacuous openness to all points of view: it is not “value neutral.” It need not, indeed it cannot, say Yes to all comers, to the Islamofascist who after all has his point of view, just as much as the soccer mom, who has hers.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

That is the heart of it. The limit case of any liberal society is reached wherever it could vote itself out of the ability to change its mind.
