The Backlash Against the Left
By Carol Devine-Molin
June 1, 2004
There's a backlash underway in America and it's not unexpected. It's
in direct response to the overwhelming level of bile being spewed at
President George W.Bush and his administration by the arrogant Left-
wingers - and I'm specifically referencing the Democratic politicos,
the news media crowd, the New York/Hollywood elites and the halls of
academia. Bush-bashing is not limited to news programming and
university campuses. It's now cropping up in the popular culture of
America as well - I'll get to that later. More importantly, a little
more than half of the American populace has dug in its heels and made
clear that it refuses to eat the garbage that the so-called "liberal
intelligencia" is attempting to force-feed it.
**snippity doo dah**
In any event, a few months back I watched the season finale
of "Stargate SG 1", and I noticed the use of some liberal anti-Bush
buzz words - The character Jack O'Neill said he would never vote for
those "two shrubs" now in the White House, which was followed-up by a
creepy remark about the presidential election in Florida. Moreover,
the newly elected vice-president was portrayed as an incredibly evil
man with his own agenda, aligning himself with a rogue faction of a
super-secret intelligence organization that was bent on
selling "alien" devices for big bucks in tandem with major
corporations. (Please, this is SciFi screwball stuff, so here "alien"
is from another planet, not another country).
It was apparently a veiled reference, albeit from the typical liberal
viewpoint, to Vice-President Cheney as an unethical man who was
selling out his nation for contracts with big-business (Halliburton).
Yeah, yeah they'll say I'm reading things into the episode that
weren't there, but given the overall context of the dialog, I think
my impressions are right on target. Frankly, I resent these types of
manipulations, which clearly should not have been incorporated into a
popular TV series during an election year. But again, these liberal
activists in the entertainment field think that it's their right to
engage in improprieties when they're taking potshots at
conservatives. It's certainly a producer's right to voice their
creative expression. Likewise, it's the prerogative of conservatives
to actively reject programming that is hostile to our national
leaders. Most of the nation understands that Vice-President Cheney is
doing a fine job, but it's very unfortunate that Cheney has become a
punching bag for the Left.
