Everything

Everything “ RUSH: Because it's a real basic question: Why in the world do [ Liberals/Obama Democrats] go so far out of their way to make sure these people aren't offended? I think it's because they, the American left, have a lot in common with militant Islam. I think they're both totalitarian. They believe in totalitarianism. They believe in the largest central command and control, commanding and telling everybody what they can and can't do. Where they can and can't go. What they can and can't eat. The similarities between the American left and militant Islam are shocking. We believe in freedom, and that doesn't go with either liberalism or Islam. "Okay, tomorrow the world is going to be absent either militant Muslims or militant conservatives. Which do you choose?" They'd vote us, folks, off the boat. I have no doubt about it, and I'm not kidding or exaggerating. I think we represent a bigger threat to them because we stand for the exact opposite. They are in common on their controlling characteristics, domineering characteristics, their arrogance. They want to control everything, everybody. They want to be in control of things that people eat, drink, use, high-tech, all this. Liberals have to have control over people, largely based in the belief... Well, it's a raw thirst for power but it's also rooted in the fact they have contempt for people's ability to handle the rigors of life on their own. The Islamists want to do it just to keep this rigid moral code intact and fealty to the "Holy Qur'an," as President Obama pronounces it. And we are diametrically opposed to all of it. We want freedom, individual responsibility, individuality, entrepreneurism. You make the best of life however you can. Equality of outcomes is not possible. They want sameness everywhere, even sameness in dress. It's really striking when you think about it, all the areas of similarity. It really is. When a terrorist act happens, what's the liberals' first reaction? Blame conservatives! Dark Knight Rising? Tea Party! Gabby Giffords? Sarah Palin! You name it. ”
