The Reich Wing's out of control HRC bashing

31. Boiled frog syndrome

Starting with Bushes dad and his demonizing liberalism by calling it "The 'L' Word", the GOP has heaped scorn upon liberals and liberalism. Over a period of decades, some key members of the Democratic party have begun to 'triangulate' the GOP's demonization of the word and adopt it as their own.

Now they too believe that 'liberals' are 'far left', even though it is the mildest possible form of leftism. What they don't realize is that they have adopted the Bush GOP position.

So now, to them, the mildest form of the left is extremism, which tells us they have shifted to the right.

I continually hear them decrying that we need to 'shift to the center' which means adopt right wing Republican policies, but I have yet to find a single one of them who can say which Republican policies we should adopt.

It's like the frog in a pan who doesn't notice the water temperature changing and gleefully boils to it's death. Another term for it is 'creeping fascism'.
