Conflate: verb - To bring things together and fuse them into a single entity

"Conflation occurs when the identities of two or more individuals, concepts, or places, sharing some characteristics of one another, become confused until there seems to be only a single identity — the differences appear to become lost"

Considering how you take any topic you may disagree with and somehow blend it in with progressives, socialism or Obama regardless of the topic's origin... seems pretty accurate.

confusion would be the key word....
what you "interpret" as conflation on my part is a result of your inability to recognize and/or understand simple concepts and facts that disagree with your shifting world view..much easier for you to "merge" or conflate them into a perceived single mode of dissenting argument and then dismiss all with some Glen Beck or Fox news reference as you have done here and elsewhere...while completely ignoring the actual point or points...works for you I guess.... I've been and try to be pretty clear on progressives, socialism(ists) and Obama and the war that they are engaged in against America, the Constitution and our private sector....no conflation is necessary and to ignore the ideaology being forced on Americans currently, it's sources and the detremental effects is to have your head in the sand.. it becomes clearer each day .....at least for most Americans...I just can't figure out which side you are on sometimes.....you are idealogically erratic and that may be the cause of your "confusion by your own conflation"....... don't blame me....

I will give you a little credit however, once in a while you provide a real gem...like...the right to bear arms is constitutionally correct...or however you stated it...now that is brilliant stuff......

of course, we do need to worry about Spence's citizens bearing nuclear missiles
