Human-Rights as a global cause has been abandoned by the left

Silence on Islam  & slavery.
Rudeness to the Dali Lama.
Silence on Egypt, Libya, & Syria.
Inexplicable paralysis on Iran & N. Korea.
Bumbling with Chinese dissidents.

“with the Obama presidency, human rights has completed its passage away from the political left, across the center and into its home mainly on the right—among neoconservatives and evangelical Christian activists.Conservatives didnt capture the issue. The left gave it away.”
