The Vast Left-Wing Conspiracy
Blog - On Target | By K. Daniel Glover | April 13, 2009
When liberal bloggers complain about the vast right-wing conspiracy, it's just another case of projection. They have a conspiracy of their own, including their participation in the recently disclosed JournoList and their intimidation campaign for more ad money, so they assume the right must be conspiring in like manner.
The conservative blog Patterico's Pontifications paints a concise portrait of the left's messaging machine, courtesy of an inside-the-echo-chamber peek from liberal blogger Jane Hamsher at Firedoglake:
To sum up: Lefty bloggers beg for (and receive) funding from the Lefty interest groups to carry their message. The Sorosphere organizes the echo chamber meetings for the interest groups. The interest groups fear that going off message will bring reprisals -- financial or otherwise -- directed from the White House. "Because that's the way Rahm plays."
That's the Chicago way.
With that background in mind, it's obvious that the left's carping about the "phony populism" of anti-tax "tea parties" across America also is a case of projection. Liberal activists, and lefty bloggers in particular, are so skilled at manufacturing outrage that they can't imagine a case of genuine grassroots anger.

Back at you Jack….nuthin but net
I went on The Vast Left Wing Conspiracy article hoping you would have commented here. I know Brian and company won’t get this on his email since he hasn’t posted here. Just a quick wrap up on Brian and Company. I made the comment earlier in another post about the “Basement boys”. Not really kidding on that. I truly believe this is a Media Matters group. They are attacking aim because they are printing articles that absoutely no one else is touching with the proverbial ten foot pole. Just wait until Kincaid delves into the Ayers/Obama matter that is being shielded. The unprintable foundations.
Tell me how to find out where the comment portions are on “The Jewish World Review.”
Good article, except for the obvious error in calling Joe Lieberman the VP candidate for John Kerry. It was Edwards with Kerry, and Lieberman stood with Al Gore in 2000.
Hi Julie, no comments section <jack> on Jewish World Review. The daily email starts out with about three <atenglish> or four Jewish things, then has links for cartoon strips, then links for toons from political <dotzzn> type newspapers, then some commentary links, then that day in History, and <dot> finally a long section on
commentary. I love the cartoons, and many of the commentators are <com>different than on other sites.
I suppose you are already on the site GOPUSA.com? That has a moderated comments section.
Hi Julie O:
I came back here because they are not here. Check out my first post here < > and read between. I figured that the Obama minions were on every Conservative leaning site, and haven’t been to Michelle’s site recently, but will check it out. Different minions or are they from same IP as Sullivan?

Dear Alan Caruba:
Your synopsis of “Freezing in the Dark” by Ron Arnold was excellent. In just a short few paragraphs you hit the nail on the head of how I think about the left in America - it would have taken me a lot longer in words to say basicly the same thing. I say the left in America, because not only does that include the Communists, Socialists, Progressives and Democrats, but also Republicans such as John McCain.
I remember as a young man when the drive for population control started here - it also was the start of millions of baby abortions. What has therefore been very ironic to me is that that same group is for the massive numbers of illegals that have come to this country from south of the border. They achieved population control in this country, so now they want to import those that do not have a right to be here to supposedly fill the jobs all those dead babies would have taken. And these illegal imports are from a country and people that do not begin to understand population control - they breed like rabbits. So much for their want to control the population. They were successful and then purposely now have made themselves VERY unsuccessful.
Much the same has occurred in Europe - nearly zero population increase and in some countries they are actually losing population, that is HOW successful they were, so now they import massive numbers of muslims who hate their guts and want to destroy their society. Thank God that it is mainly Mexicans here and not muslims BUT that too is also starting to take hold in some areas of the country - Detroit comes to mind when I think of out of control muslim importation.
I liked best: “One can hardly call liberals and progressives a movement. ‘It is more like a mental hospital without doctors or nurses.’ They don’t have a cohesive culture, have no coherent ideology, but are ‘just quarrelsome fanatics with loads of issues.’” That is certainly a definition of liberals and so-called progressives that I would love to see in a dictionary.
I will be checking the Conservative Book Club for Ron Arnold’s book - it has to be good reading. And once again, thank you, Alan Caruba, for the excellent synopsis.
