More Confessions of a Former Communist

Following on to my post yesterday, "Confessions of a Former Communist" the article by David Horowitz entitled The Threat At Home. Horowitz is the "red diaper baby" who came in from the cold and has been a tireless voice for conservatism in general, and for campus free speech in particular, ever since. He writes for and edits the ezine, FrontPage, speaks at college campuses around the country, and is the author of The Politics of Bad Faith, which first clued me into the ways the left uses language to deceive us. His own confessions can be found in the book Radical Son.

It doesn't take long to see that everything The One does is a misdirection, rather like a fine illusionist. Obama will send the newshounds baying after one issue, then quietly do something else while no one else is looking. As Rush said on his radio program, (paraphrasing) the way to interpret anything he says is to take it to mean the opposite of the plain language.

Go read Horowitz's article, then go to FrontPage and check out the site. I know you have much on your plate, but just be aware that conservatives must fight on many fronts to retrieve our culture and our country from these snakes.
