So the government by arresting the crazy militia people this past week that were preparing to attack and kill scores of (local) law enforcement official are "oppressing" them?

Interesting viewpoint.

Saddam --- the right in this country supported and propped him up for years, until they decided he was a threat (with all those non-existent WMD's).

Chavez --- the right is in a frenzy because a democratically-elected leader of a free country doesn't have the same views at them. Sounds familiar to what is going on this country!

Hitler --- the right denies the holocaust, and many of the militial/patriot groups are filled with neo-Nazis.

Liberals do not oppose freedom, the facist right opposes freedom.

In an ideal world, the facist right would disappear.
