Left on the Wrong Side of History

The Left has been on the wrong side of history for at least half of the twentieth century and all of the twenty-first. They were wrong about Vietnam, wrong about central America, wrong about the Soviet Union, and wrong about the Middle East. They couldn't bring themselves to call Communism or Islamism evil like Reagan and Bush had the moral clarity to do. As such, they have zero credibility on the freedom, liberty, and democracy issues. As Mark Steyn says:

I hope if ever I find myself one of the unfortunate subjects of a totalitarian dictatorship, that it’s Bush and the Republicans who take up my cause rather than the Left.

Hear, Hear!
