“It’s
understandable liberals presumed the Rockettes were going to be
forced to do something with which they were opposed, because that’s
what the liberal establishment [under Obama]
has been doing to everyone else.”
– Tammy
Bruce, author, columnist and radio talk show host
When a handful of
Rockettes declined to kick up their heels at Donald
Trump's upcoming inauguration—a voluntary gig—liberals
wrongly assumed the dancers' employer was “forcing them” to
perform against their will. Where was a similar outcry when Christian
bakers were compelled by the State to produce cakes for gay
weddings? Further, why were libs as silent as church mice when
the big government juggernaut that is ObamaCare
compelled Catholic nuns to pay for useless birth control? (These
Little Sisters of the Poor successfully petitioned the Supreme
Court for “protection” from Obama's
fascism.) For the last eight years, why has progressive “outrage”
been so blatantly selective?
Wasn't the central theme
of all civil
rights movements—of women, blacks and gays—based upon the
intrinsic idea of equal treatment for all? Why is it that today's
progressives have inverted this meaning? Why do they seek
“special” rights only for their fellow travelers (like one
“graceless” Rockette who stated on Instagram that President-elect
Trump “stands for everything we're against”)?
Democrats' only true
agenda is self-serving power-seeking. Therefore, they distort and
exploit a trivial
circumstance for their own political gain. What else explains
their full-throated lip
service to griping, anti-Trump
dupes who also constitute their future
voting blocs? Ironically, a few Rockettes popping off behind the
scenes has inadvertently made center stage leftist
hypocrisy.
