Well, roachboy, the more powerful rhetorical choice would have been to point out some of the specific illogical statements coming from the media, and liberals specifically. However, as many of us know, the current state of right politics in America isn't about logic, or facts, or reasoning. They're too boring and don't get good ratings or score many points in grassrootsiness.
No, the right is fuelled these days by showing how one can respond to the liberal/progressive/pseudo-left threat and that now isn't the time to pause or let up. Maybe it will never be time. The republic is at risk, remember?
