Plus les choses changent, plus elles restent les mêmes. Guess what that means.

The general idea---ssshhh!

The Elites Want You to Shut Up https://t.co/Ft9oouZ68F Comment: This is not new. Oldtimers may remember Rush Limbaugh's first TV show. Rush hid behind the "blue dot", as a joke to remind us all of the shut uppery way back then.

Update from orginal post of 6/5/13:

Today's Bongino show is an illustration of the politics of shut up. The left can't win on the merits of their policies, so they institutionalize shut-uppery. Bongino describes how they are doing it. It's a five part program, Bongino says. That all reminded me of this post of almost 10 years ago. The more things change, the more they stay the same. ( The relevant part of Bongino's show is a segment before the 30 minute mark.)

The original posts and subsequent updates follow directly below:

A couple of posts on Instapundit reminds me of what Andrew Klavan once said about the left.  Their argument is "shut up".  Even this IRS scandal is a part of making the opposition "shut up" or else.  Benghazi was a form of "shut up" too.  You can't say anything bad about the Muslims even if they kill you.  Just shut up.

Shut up doesn't apply to Democrats, as Hillary once screamed at us.  They won't shut up. ever.

Here's the video again.
