I think I figured out the reason for the "liberal media" and "activist judge" RW lies

[Pushed To The Left]

One thing I've noticed about the hardcore right wing is that they don't believe in moderation and/or non-partisanship. You're either with them all the way or you're a liberal. Notice how they won't call conservatives/Republicans who don't tow the party line moderates. Nope, they refer to them as liberals. Many of them even call John McCain a liberal! (We all know that's BS)

Going with this RW logic (oxymoron, I know), anybody or anything who is non-partisan wouldn't be towing a conservative or liberal line. But since they aren't towing the conservative line, they are seen by the right wing as liberals. Take the Supreme Court. Most of us know that Anthony Kennedy is considered a "swing vote" and probably the most truly non-partisan Justice on the bench. He has made rulings that made conservatives happy many times. But since it's not 100% of the time, not only is he a liberal in their eyes, but they also see him as an "liberal activist judge"! Conservative California Supreme Court judge Ronald George made ONE decision they didn't like..now he's on the "liberal activist" list too! If somebody tried to write a book or movie about this stuff, people would say it wasn't believable!
Same thing with the media. If they are 100% non-partisan, they are liberals in the right wing's eyes. In order to not be the "liberal media", they would have to tow the conservative line at all times.

These people on the far right don't want non-partisan judges or a non-partisan media at all. They want conservative media and a conservative court that will never disagree with them on any issue. To do this, they are labeling the non-partisan as liberal so they can try to replace non-partisanship with hardcore conservatism. Hopefully, people will stop falling for this RW charade!

1. The rightwing had control of....

The Presidency, the House and Senate, the Supreme Court for 6 years.

Abortion is still legal. Why is that?

Why didn't they make it illegal nationally when they had total control of the gov't?

Because it's nothing more than a wedge issue that they use to get their suckers out to the polls.

2. The GOP has been taken over by Authoritarians. Read

"Conservatives Without Conscience" by John Dean. Adherence to dogma is very important to Authoritarians.

3. People are confused as to what a "liberal" or "conservative" court really is.

"Liberal" courts allow laws to stand.

"Conservative" courts overturn laws. They are the "activist" judges that "legislate from the bench."

4. You disproved their "conservatism" in the OP.

They are radicals. We need to begin framing them that way.
