What’s with the sudden rash of prominent liberals calling for the annihilation of conservatives?
First you have Thomas Friedman calling for China-style autocracy so that Republicans cannot obstruct the Democratic agenda. He didn’t explicitly call for conservatives to be killed, but how exactly does he think that China’s “reasonably enlightened” autocrats deal with their opponents?
Next, Garrison Keillor made it explicit.
Now it’s Michael Moore. In his latest movie, he calls the elimination of capitalists, to the tune of the Soviet anthem in case anyone might miss the point:
The movie ends with Moore telling us, “Capitalism is evil, and you cannot regulate evil. You have to eliminate it.” Then he plays the bloodthirsty Soviet national anthem “The Internationale.”

Will this be enough for Democrats to loosen their embrace of the man? I won’t be holding my breath.
POSTSCRIPT: By the way, let’s not Bill Ayers (unrepentant domestic terrorist and disowned Obama pal) who had actual plans for genocide.
