Jonah Goldberg On Kathleen Parker s "G-O-D" Shame - Right Wing News

Commenter Bill Dalasio, a non-religious libertarian conservative, says the threat to his liberty isn't coming from "oogedy-boogedy" social conservatives: "Put bluntly, I can't help but feel I'm being sold a bill of goods here. Progressives, with the full consent of moderates,...chip away consistently and unabashedly at my freedom. All the while, telling me how scared I should be of the religious conservative bogeyman hiding under the bed." He cites smoking restrictions, speech codes, gun laws, the fairness doctrine, and mandatory recycling as examples.

Via the Cranky Conservative, who adds, "The essence of modern liberalism is a quest to perfect society. It really should come as no surprise, therefore, that it is the left that seeks to use government to achieve that end. More often than not, social conservatives are merely fighting against greater government intrusion."
