Last year, the conservatives wanted to bring Julian Assange home and execute him. Now, they wrap Edward Snowden in a flag. Meanwhile, Nancy Pelosi and Michele Bachmann support the President in his defense of the NSA. President Obama has lost a lot of his left wing support over this, his corporate bailouts, the failed solar energy funding, I mean, they know that Enron's Kenneth Lay was in Nixon's EPA. I worked a Libertarian Party booth in Ann Arbor in 2010, which they shared with a Ron Paul initiative to "Audit the Fed." The Ann Arbor lefties pretty much ignored the LP but could not wait to sign the Ron Paul petitions.

See the discussions here about Left-Right. Time was when it was Democrat-Republican. Then it was Liberal-Conservative. Now we are on the cusp of change.
