Liberal "Tolerance" On The March (Again)
What do you do if you're a Republican who works in a predominantly liberal industry? You keep very, very quiet.
You see, the Deacons of Diversity, the Imams of Inclusion are a little disingenuous in their application of the concepts of inclusion, diversity and (praised be its name) Tolerance. They can tolerate tax money for endless jars of urine and crucifixes. They can consider it diversity to have among their ranks anti-American propagandists like Michael Moore, and they consider it inclusive when their leader, Howard Dean, said, "I hate Republicans. And I hate everything Republicans stand for."
Maybe that's the Lib version of "tough love."
Drudge found a recent example of Lib tolerance in a very strange place.
"PLAYGIRL editor-in-chief Michele Zipp has been stripped of her duties after she revealed how she voted Republican in the 2004 election."
"stripped." Heh.
Anyhow, she wrote to him to explain how this came about.
"I also received a phone call from a leading official from Playgirl magazine, in which he stated with a laugh, "I wouldn't have hired you if I knew you were a Republican.
"I just wanted to let you know of the fear the liberal left has about a woman with power possessing Republican views."
Let's face it; if there is a Party of Bigots in the United States, it is the Democratic Party. They are intolerant, racist, hateful, and mean-spirited. Maybe not all of them, and maybe not the majority. But there's enough of them to give them enough political strength to be represented at the top levels of their party.

Comments:
Ken,
She violated the "don't ask, don't tell" policy of sane liberals. For it was not that she voted for a Republican, but she publicly admitted it. Honest liberals know, that some of their own members are really not worth voting for.

It's tolerance you want? So do you believe that is wrong that the Nazi party is outlawed in Germany? Why should Progressives tolerate fascists who would not extend the same courtesy to them? Please keep your response to under seventeen paragraphs. I really don't have all that much free time. Once again, have you looked up "predominant", Mike? (JB)
A liberal in a right-wing organization who spoke up would be treated so much better, wouldn't they? Are you two a couple? (JB)
JB, Why have "affirmative action"? If the "predominant" culture is "progressive" are they not, by law, suppose to tolerate the "facist"? At least, as long as he or she does not hurt anyone or break the law. And no, Ken and I are not a couple.
So, what is your answer to the German example? Did I say that the predominant culture is progressive? (That would be a "NO") Stop putting words in my mouth!! The question was: Why should progressives tolerate fascists who would not extend the same courtesy to them?
JB, I started my "question" with "If", that makes it a premise. Not putting words in your mouth like you have done. But to answer your Nazi question. Yes, the "progressive" in this society has to tolerate the "facist". As long as the "facist" does not violate the law. (re: KKK march's, Communist Party marches and even NAZI March's) In fact, the US demanded the disbanding of the NAZI Party, not the German's. It was one of the terms of surrender. This has not stop the NAZI party from resurfacing in modern times. Please see, http://cnews.canoe.ca/CNEWS/World/2005/02/11/928505-ap.html
I find it interesting that you want to remove people's right to have differing opinions. The worst possible thing for a free society is to remove the people's ability to express themselves. While you and I may not agree with them. It is forcing those views underground that lead people like Terry Nichols and Tim McVeigh.

I am not "for" removing the rights of those who wish to have a differing opinion. I am AGAINST allowing some people to organize and suppress EVERY OTHER point of view. (JB)
