'The Left" is anyone pushing a social agenda and using government to do it.

So your contention is that organizations like Family First, Focus on
the Family and The Heritage Foundation are "leftist" for their
sponsorship of online censorship legislation, while groups like
Amnesty International, ACLU and the EFF are "rightist" for their
support of free speech and challenges to this legislation?
Does that make those who sponsor and support a flag burning amendment
"leftist"? And those who favor the freedom to burn flags "rightist"?
What about those who seek to pass a law defining marriage as "between
a man and a woman", in effect using government to define marriage,
are they "leftist"? And those who support the right of the individual
to marry a partner of their choosing would be "rightist"?
What about bans on public nudity (under "decency" laws). Would you
say those who support and sponsor public decency legislation is
"leftist", while nudists and those who argue for the freedom to
behave in public free from governmental control "rightists"?
Its an interesting redefining of the labels, and I am eager to hear
the self-professed "rightists" in this forum condemn the vile
leftists who want to censor flag-burning, use government to define
marriage for others, and force people to wear clothing in public.
