Erik Rush: Reid plays the 'hate card'

"The opportunism to which I referred concerning the left's alacrity in accusing their adversaries of hatred lies in the fact that they regularly engage in speech and actions that are hateful, or those which inspire hatred. Not only were Reid's comments scurrilous, they were in defense of a key device (health-care reform legislation) by which Congress and the administration will pauperize and ultimately enslave Americans. As difficult as survival has become for millions of Americans, Reid and his colleagues seek to create a scenario in which mere subsistence will become incomprehensibly more difficult for American families – in order to consolidate the power of the former."
