What ever happened to "agreeing to disagree"? That line, so often used for the past 30 years by the Left seems to have disappeared. Today we see a very different side of the political Left and their allies among the media elites. What changed and will the new intolerance on the Left spiral into a higher threat to liberty across America? Will disagreeing with the Left soon cost you a job, your religious liberty or land you in jail? Join in the conversation this week on The Public Square®.

The Public Square www.thepublicsquare.com This week on The Public Square Long Format Program: Congress and the President didn't read the Affordable Care Act before passing the over 2,500 page legislation.
