"Liberal vs. Right-wing"
This is one of those subtle tricks of language that people on the left side of the political spectrum like to use. “Right-wing” sounds more threatening than “conservative”. People on the right are “right-wing”. People on the left are “liberal”. It’s conservative vs. liberal, or right-wing vs. left-wing. Make a choice! Speaking of which, the other one that drives me nuts is pro-life vs. pro-choice. Most pro-lifers favor the death penalty and military action. That is, most pro-lifers are big fans of death on a large scale. Proponents of abortion on demand are no better: the “choice” of the prospective father of the child, and the parents of the mother carrying the baby are thoroughly irrelevant. Don’t even bother them with the “choice” of the unborn child; only one “choice” matters. Look, it’s pro-abortion vs. anti-abortion. Call it like it is, folks. What’s wrong with illustrating your position on the issue with clarity?
