Dear Editor,
Re: “
Page Two” [Sept. 17]: Black declares that “ideas once considered delusional nightmares are now accepted as real politics” and that the London al Jazeera TV news “is so much less polemical and ideologically constricted than it is on the Fox network.” It’s clear that (notwithstanding his disclaimers) he’s either unable to recognize his bias or isn’t truthful. Sadly, I suspect the latter.
A prime clue is his comment that while viewing al Jazeera he observed that “the reporting was consistently much less ideologically crafted propaganda and far more fair and balanced than almost anything seen on Fox.” Objectively evaluated, this is simply untrue. Moreover, anyone with an IQ above 80 knows that al Jazeera is the mouthpiece for the tyrannical, genocidal, enslaving Islamist movement. And yet Black declares them as “far more fair and balanced than almost anything seen on Fox.” He’s not fooling anyone.
It’s clear that the “ideas” Louis refers to as “delusional nightmares” are those of American conservatism. But instead of speaking directly, he willfully defiles himself with transparently embarrassing obfuscation. He shows he simply doesn't have the objective moral and intellectual clarity and courage to rationally challenge the philosophy of individual liberty, free enterprise, constitutionally limited government, and robust defense from tyranny – American conservatism.
There are only two philosophical and ideological political choices in America – liberty (American conservatism) or individual-freedom-crushing leftism. And the upcoming congressional elections are the most existentially important in the last 100 years – maybe ever.
If our citizens choose liberty, civilization will be temporarily secured again. If they choose leftism, American exceptionalism and leadership – culturally and economically – will be seriously wounded. Ergo, civilization will be mortally threatened. The bottom line is that the Republican Party represents liberty and the Democratic Party is the home of the left. We must choose wisely!
