WE HAVE MET THE ENEMY AND HE IS US. Did somebody send out a memo or something? There's been quite a rhetorical escalation on the right this week: * The name of Dinesh D'Sousa's upcoming presentation at the Heritage Foundation blaming liberal Americans for 9/11: "The Enemy at Home" * Fox News anchor Gretchen Carlson this morning on Sen. Ted Kennedy and other war opponents: �hostile enemies right here on the home front." * Sean Hannity's newest Sunday show feature targeting liberals: "Enemy of the State." Coordinated rhetorical surge or just right-wing group-think? A disturbing trend, either way. If you've noticed other examples, please add them in the comments.
