I believe this is an over simplification, the original Leftwings were probably closer to Libertarian....JFK, Roosevelt, MLK, Truman would probablly turn in their graves if they seen what the Left has become today, the Left are globalist owned Neo-Liberals much like the Neo-Cons. Politics often flows and rises and drops, its like waves and degree of Liberalism or Libertarianism is probably a good thing to keep the authoritarian far-right in check, too far and you get something like the Spanish Civil War...Bush helped create the mentally crazed unhinged left when he started those speeches you are either 'With us or with the terrorists' before his Iraq invasion. A place like Turkey which is now going full rightwing islamo retard probably needs Leftism badly to keep the dumb jihad islamic Turks in check and Atatürk's secularist vision alive....I hate Communism and its disgusting but for real poor backward shitholes perhaps it has some merit, strangely I think Communism/Socialism might have been one of the better things to happen Afghanistan when Reagan and Baroness Thatcher and the CIA started sending guns and bombs and missiles to Afghanistan to fight the Socialists USSR Russian Soviets.....These mahometan theocratic righwting conservative islamists took power and the place went so far backward it made the salem witch trials look like a teddy bears picnic...Regan even brought the Moongod worshiping terrorist ragheads straight from Asscrackistan into the Whitehouse and dedicated NASA's Shuttle Launch speech to them...it probably 'cursed' the Shuttle as it would blow up a few launches after with some teacher in space on board, broadcast on Live tv across America.

Never happened. Most of those 'astronauts' are still alive today and using their same names.
