I HATE TO CALL THEM DEMOCRATS March 1, 2007
There was a time when that word could be uttered with pride. There was a time when that party was honorable, ethical and respected. Today it can be likened and not too far removed from the classifications of a cult. A sect which is extremist and vibrant with a nurtured guidance from despotic leadership . A cult which lays claims to having exclusive and exceptional power to solve the world’s problems. A group which finds easy prey in those whose intellectual capacities have been numbed to the point of paralysis and aided by a conditioning process which covers at least two generations. The cancer called Socialism is not for the short term.
Results were in evidence during the farcical and ludicrous impeachment trial of Bill Clinton. The so-called democrat party voted 100% in his favor. 100% in favor of one of the most immoral, unethical, ineffectual individuals to ever inhabit the white house. The cult leaders had spoken.
The cult followers understandably had no shame. Their allegiance belonged elsewhere than to their own country.
This party, and I use the term loosely, is the party of fraud. Its legacy is the supervision of fraudulent elections as its history will attest. In the last two national elections it brought out a battalion of lawyers allegedly to make sure that there was no fraud. It was right on schedule since fraud by its own sect had been discovered around the country. Blatant examples reared their ugly heads as in an Ohio community where there were more ballots cast than there were registered voters and in Florida where voting by Chad was alleged to be too heavy a burden for their downtrodden. Thus their minions of the law found themselves changing hats from unearthing fraud to being protectors of the fraudulent.
The process began with Franklin D. Roosevelt who to this day is still protected by the media but whose decisions in his day led us to a great many of the problems we faced after his passing. His chicanery on many political fronts coupled with the adulation which embraced him helped his party to rationalize its way into depravity, corruption and degradation. He sowed and we are reaping the poison.
It could well be argued that the fire in the belly, the unbending determination, the willingness to sacrifice, the love of one’s country, the complete sense of duty and honor may have been lost with the demise of those who comprised the greatest generation. A considerable amount of this may be laid in the lap of public education where in at least the last two generations it has been regurgitating little heads full of mush who have no clue relative to the history and the greatness of this country. Students who can’t read, write or do simple arithmetic and who have no understanding that America has done more in 200 years towards the fulfillment of man’s desire for freedom and his ability to create and progress than the rest of the world has done in 2000 years. But that is another story.
The leadership of this once legitimate American political party deteriorated from Roosevelt to Johnson to Carter and then to the wizards of the forked tongue, the Clintons, the Gores, the Kerrys and now the Pelosis, the Reeds and the Murthas. Sandwiched in between and attempting to stem the democrat flow towards socialism and communism stood Kennedy and Truman. It was most notably during the Truman era when Secretary of Defense James Forrestal was informed a number of times relative to the infiltration of communists into high places of government and industry. Yes, and this included not only the department of Secretary of State but the news media, the unions and the alleged intelligentsia of our education system.
The question has oft been raised as to why the Jews and the Blacks have supported this party.
The Jews have mainly supported because their parents and their grandparents did so and to them it is an inherited, honored lineage. To this day, their majority has not as yet come to understand that it is supporting the same platform of their oppressors in Russia and in Germany. A Democrat party which actually embodies the credos of the despots throughout history who subjugated them.
The Blacks for decades bemoaned the enclosure of the corral which imprisoned them by Whitey but when let free it didn’t take them long to build their own corral and imprison themselves. Their sense of inadequacy as promoted by their charlatan leaders engulfed them. To this day their leaders chant for them “to be let free” but wittingly making sure that they haven’t realized that the key to the corral has been sitting in their own hip pockets all this time.
The vast majority of American citizens who still support this party do not have a clue that its name is used purely for political purposes. The vast majority who call themselves democrats do NOT actually believe in such historically failed tenets as the equal distribution of wealth, the superiority of a collective society, that government should provide and protect you from the cradle to the grave, that all property is the property of the state, that excessive taxing of the Patricians will enhance the lot of the Proletariat.
It is difficult to believe that this party is so devoid of patriotic leadership that in these contemporary times it saddled the country with a Jimmy Carter whose ineptness was so huge that even other nations were embarrassed for us. A senile-ridden Carter who to this day still rants that “we’re at the bottom of all the developed countries in giving to other people.” In Clinton, we received a charismatic and immoral traitor who fled to England pretending to be a student and when things got too hot then ended up groveling at the feet of the Russians for protection. He never made a decision without his weather beaten index finger flailing to check the wind.
This party which has fielded nothing but lightweights for the last few decades has been completely taken over by Socialists whom we generously call Liberals or Leftists. This once Democrat party has been demeaned and destroyed and can no longer be considered a viable American Political Party. Frankly, I hate to call them Democrats.
We need not puzzle over the spectacle of the Democratists having gone awry. They no longer belong to us. There was a time when our political parties could disagree and agree to disagree without rancor and without long lasting bitterness. Not today. We have seen and heard the words of hatred emanating from their very souls and against individuals as well as the opposition party. You have heard the screeching and the bellering about killing Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld and others. This is not normal to our political history. This is the outer framework of an opposing idealogy which intends to destroy our country and all for which it stands. The voters who call themselves democrats have been duped. And so have the wimps of the Republican party.
Liberty is eaten away one bite at a time and we have placed into power today and given authority to Reds who are chewing mercilessly. Never in our history have we experienced two ex-presidents traveling around the globe and orating that we, as a nation, are at fault for all the ills of the world. Never in our history have we had a political party so far removed from the tenets, the aims, the goals of our Bill of Rights and our Constitution. Never in our history have we been privy to a political party doing its damage to our country without shame, without remorse, and without compunction. Never in our history have we been saddled with an apologist party, a defeatist party, a traitorous party. Never in our history have a group of treasonous characters openly admitted to being against our American principals by blatantly encouraging their names to be listed in the rosters of “The Democratic Socialists of America” and the Congressional Progressive Caucus.” Once in full power the first order of business will be the decimation of our military----- our first line of defense, and complete control if not ownership of the Press.
The circle is close to having been completed. We allowed the progressive educationists to take over the teaching of our children. Their indoctrination over the last two generations has begun to bear fruit. At least half of our voting public does not have a clue that it has helped to elect people into power who have no allegiance to our country, who have openly and unashamedly sided with the enemy and who are spitting on the graves of our soldiers. Basically, with this last election, we have placed the life of this nation in the hands of those who sympathize with, aid, abet and console our enemies. Our nation has been neutered.
I hate to call them democrats and I am ashamed of a citizenry so ignorant of its basic civic responsibilities that it would allow those who would destroy us, the honor of public office.
