[edit] Just Say No To Pinkos

Is anyone else aware of the fact that claiming your political oppoant (sp) has a Mental Disorder is an old tactic of the USSR? This unsigned comment was added by 132.241.245.49

Could someone that has read the book please post Savages' specifcs WRT the Dx for Liberalism as a Mental Disorder? This unsigned comment was added by Gamaliel

Savage, as it seems, is a failed writer of non-fiction who has turned to the mainstream right wing voice to sell books. First, in order to sell a political book, one needs to develope a name, so broadcasting right wing veiws on the radio is the best bet. He is a talking head amongst talking heads that should not be taken seriously. Labeling Liberalism as a Mental disorder shows that ones like him are willing to turn to the tactics of Russia in order to defend his party's recent incompetence.

Why not make up your own mind. You can listen to Michael Savage online here... http://www.radioshowlinks.com/internet_radio/michael_savage_current_affairs_h755.aspx I personally enjoy his show and I agree with most but not all of his views. This unsigned comment was added by 71.143.18.166

None of you get the extreme irony of his point and use of the liberal tactics against the pinkos themeselves. This unsigned comment was added by 66.36.137.69

Please refrain from using derogatory terms like “pinko” in the future. 69.70.168.24 18:20, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] NPOV

I have reworded the overview section to try to make it NPOV. As long as no one objects, I plan on removing the sermon tag. If there are any problems with the current revision, please discuss here, or even on my talk page as I would like this article to become neutral despite its subject. Thank you. --WillMak050389 04:54, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

It's been a week and no one has expressed any concern, so I removed the tag. Feel free to put it back if still unsure about it. --WillMak050389 21:07, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Propaganda vs. Ideology

I believe the subject of this book should remain as Conservative ideology, and not Conservative propaganda. Please note the difference, according to the article on propaganda: "Instead of impartially providing information, propaganda is often deliberately misleading, using logical fallacies, that, while sometimes convincing, are not necessarily valid." whereas ideology is "an organized collection of ideas." This book utilizes facts, though some may disagree with them they are sourced facts, to organize ideas. It is not meant to be misleading, illogical, or invalid. Unless opposed, with a viable reason, I plan on reverting this change to the article. --WillMak050389 20:29, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
