At least the 18-19th century Libertines had the class to deal with the after-effects of their wonton behavior without expecting society to foot the bill. Sexual “Morality” shouldn’t be legislated, but sexual “Amorality” shouldn’t be subsidized, e.g., “welfare state industrial complex” enabling female irresponsibility & promiscuity. It may be “Her Body”, but there is still the matter of “My Wallet.”
Because liberals disguise pandering for votes in a cloak of “diversity”, when in reality, they don’t believe in anything that is contrary to their strict opinion of how the world should look.
Jimbo says - "There is a fine line between freedom of speech and treason"
Because diversity of ideology would expose them for the fraud their philosophy is trying to perpetuate on the rest of us. Free thought would place them on the bottom rung of society.
Liberalism is a cancer ,which is destabilising western society. For societies to operate efficiently a certain level of order must prevail. Hence the conservative philosophy is the correct one.
The liberal approach is to allow unrestricted abortion and euthanasia. Liberals seek to excuse lawbreakers and to mock the Christian religion. Under Liberalism society becomes soft. Human rights take precedence over human responsibility. The pseudo-liberals use an insidious approach to destroy Christianity. Efforts are made to restrict Christian activities under the guise of human rights. All bulwarks of conservatism are mercilessly attacked and ridiculed.
Liberalism has gained a huge foothold in the media. Liberals cannot afford to allow diversity in the media because a strong conservative media can expose the bankruptcy of liberal ideals.
It is interesting to note that the increasing break down in western society coincides with an upsurge in Liberalism. Liberalism is anarchy justified.
I agree with a previous post. Liberals do not really want diversity, that is just a buzzword that is thrown around. Libs, particularly white libs, want to feel better about themselves and showing that they support "diversity" is a way to accomplish this. Often, when the rubber meets the road, they do not back up their words. President Bush has had a far more diverse Cabinet in his time than Clinton ever did, and he's put African-Americans in more vital posts than his predecessors as well.
Further, it seems only the "protected classes" qualify for diversity points in this left wing mindset. Conservatives are certainly not a protected class and, as such, they do not qualify. Few liberals would feel better about themselves by allowing equal time to conservative viewpoints. Plus, many of these people simply do not want to hear anything which counters how they see the world.
Lefties think ideological diversity means having different opinions on wine, favorite lefty author, best lefty blog, best sushi bar and Upper West Side vs. Tribeca. Who says they don't have free and open discussions on these matters?
They think non liberals are evil, yes. But they stifle ideological thought because they are unable to reason. They are unable to see beyond their own prejudices.
“Illiberal” Leftist intelligentsia seem to think that their particular ideology imbues them with an esoteric insight on all matters pertaining to the reality in general and the human condition in particular. If the rest of us were intelligent enough to appreciate the subtle beauty of social engineering (gender/racial quotas, wealth-redistribution, etc.) we would of course be leftists as well. Hence, because we don't agree with the dominant leftist-paradigm we must be stupid or bigots or sexists.
All you have to do is have a conversation with a "diverse idealist" and the answer is obvious. For they are truly ignorant, they don't think problems through. This brings to mind a quote, "Two things society will never overcome are ignorance and poverty."
When my wife and I announced to a bleeding heart friend of ours that we were expecting our second child. Our friend enthusiastcally raised his glass sky high to congradulate us in a toast. Not more than an hour later, the news reported that the population just hit six billion. Without thought our friend exclaimed, "Oh, that's terrible we're wrecking the planet!"
I shot back with, "I suppose you'll take back your toast?"
"What ... what do you mean?"
"How can you mean what you said if 'the population is wrecking the planet' and we're expecting another baby?"
After an open mouthed pause he said, "I never thought of it that way."
...do as I say. That's how media works. Naturally idelogical diversity is anathema to them. The only point of view that matters is whatever talking point the DNC gives them.
They want diversity among liberal thought. They like using women and minorities who agree with liberalism in an effort to show how popular it is, and to convince various groups it's okay to hold those beliefs. But they don't think conservative thought is thought at all.
They think conservative are all waging war on them, are all out to get them, and simply do not deserve to be heard.
card holding member of the vast right-wing conspiracy
Once they have written about it (from their biased left field view) the "debate" is over. With a monopoly in the past, this worked quite well for them. Now that the monopoly has been challenged by the 'new media', they are searching for responses that are sure to be cloudy, veiled and dishonest about their position.
To openly admit to some one that your goal is to control them will naturally be met with resistance. This is why they lie.
Sounds a little like Satan at work. Which may be why many of them hate Christians and work feverishly to disprove or discredit Christianity. In fact, they'll probably refer to their slamming of THE religion that founded this nation, as demonstrating 'intellectual diversity'.
No matter if it's religion or rubbers - they lie to CONTROL.
It's because they're elitists. They believe that they are smarter, more informed, better educated, etc. There is no possible way that conservitive thinking has any intelligent merit, therefore it deserves no real platform. The debate is over, as we frequently hear by liberals.
Today Paul Tsongas' widow barely won a Congressional seat and this equates exactly, EXACTLY why the media does not like ideological diversity.
The entire point of any diversity is PERVERSITY for the media. None of them promote any standards which keep Conservative Chrisitan Patriotic America in power, but instead to divide and conquer the nation because they KNOW NO ONE WILL EVER VOTE FOR THEM BUT THE MINORITY OF FAILURES which are all liberals are.
It is HUGE in Mrs. Tsongas barely squeeked out a victory today over a Republica. She is from a leftist enclave which never votes Republican.........and yet even in these supposed suicidal times for Republicans.....the MSM hammering Bush and every Conservative in government or media.........here a GOP member almost topples a dynasty liberal.
Liberals can not ever come up with any solutions and is why NONE OF THEM WANT TO BE CHALLENGED. I mean for literal goodness sake a liberal tells everyone to go murder themselves or murder their kids or parents in one form or another. That kind of savagery appeals to no one, especially when old Whoopie Goldberg reaches geezer age and her relative are all trying to Michael Schiavo her.
It is still too early to predict anything in any races, but do not believe for a second that Hillary and the DNC has 2008 wrapped up in a landslide. Dolt RINO's are fleeing and worthless RINO Lott, Lugar and Specter are hiding........but if the Tsongas trend prevails that even liberal areas are highly vulnerable to Republicans.....this means that Fred Thompson is going to be fREDSTATE Thompson in a host of areas with allot of newbie Republican Conservatives sweeping into office because Americans are trending to "I HAVE SEEN WHAT DEMOCRATS DO AND THEY ARE WORSE THAN BUSH".
That kind of trend the media will not allow debate in, but the first scent that the GOP is going to hammer the DNC and boot ole James Dobson and his types of thinking they are king makers to not being stampeded by Ron Paul's floating 500 voters.....this is going to be interesting and I hope Newsbusters busts this trend so that people start realizing the Truth which is building.
America might have tossed Bush and Republicans for being socialists........but they are setting fire to the Democrats and Hillary's ship and not taking passage on it for 2008.
It's simple - Liberals are hypocrites. They continually say one thing and do another, while holding others accountable to standards they ignore. And they play the "do as I say, not as I do" game to perfection. They are arrogant and truly believe that their way is the only way, and anyone who disagrees with them is mentally retarded and should have no say in their own affairs. In order to promote their ideology, they are willing to go to literally any length, say literally anything, and sacrifice all. They are the greatest danger this country has ever faced. They repeatedly demonstrate their willingness to take away our hard-won freedoms (1st and 2nd in particular), they sacrifice our national security with their policies and rhetoric, and consider themselves above any law.
They don't believe there is any evil in the world, except for the evil of believing people should be responsible for and expect consequences for their own actions (and words).

October 17, 2007 - 08:49 ET by mattmThey don't really love diversity.
They love socialism, hedonism, debauchery, self-indulgence, no responsibility, no consequences, etc.
Diversity is just a euphemism they use to hide their true intent, which is to bring about a totally amoralistic society.
