Well, I suppose it's only right to fight against oppression, but I don't see that as an issue at this time.

do not pay attention the way the left in this country demonize Conservative Leaders. they have decided to appease our enemies. such as Harry Reid who wants to try to blame the way muslim fascist behave on Americans expressing our free speech. they blame the actions of crinimals on inanimate objects and they try to divide us based on race and gender

Can you provide me with a link to a news story or article about this? I don't know what you're talking about exactly.
But other than this, is there anything else? Because it's my understanding that criticisms of conservative leaders is more about a reaction to their social policies. So you get people countering conservative comments/bills, etc., regarding abortion, immigration, or gay rights. That's not demonization. If anything, it's conservatives who demonize the liberals by calling their ideas or policies a slide into socialism/communism, which is false.
The difference is that the conservative threat is real, whereas the liberal threat is hyperbole and therefore propaganda.
However, I'm more than welcome to see examples to the contrary.

I get the feeling that Canada is home to a much higher proportion of rational conservatives than in the U.S. This is why I'm so interested in American politics. Americans tend to swing way more extreme than we do, both politically and emotionally.
