There was a
time when the two-party system functioned for America, a time when the
Democratic Party was patriotic and offered a viable alternative to the GOP. A
time when we could agree to disagree about the relative size of
government, and various marginal policy issues. The Democratic Party once
featured the likes of Harry Truman, Adlai Stevenson, and JFK.
That time is
long gone. As are any principles and scruples the party may have had. It now vehemently
disagrees with virtually all the founding principles of the nation. No longer
does it purport to believe in limited government, of, by, and for the people.
It believes in unlimited government, of, by, and for those in government. It
does everything it can to undermine the rule of law, and equality under law. Democrats
are summarily assaulting the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. They are
attacking each of the Ten Amendments, including the right to free speech, and the
right to protect oneself. And now, even the right to control over one’s own body. (And, in a
related note, they have previously and largely successfully disparaged the Ten
Commandments and banished them from the public square.)
Democrats for
the most part no longer hide their desire to control others lives. President Biden recently stated that he has authorized
the deployment of “Surge Response Teams” made
up of “experts,” in part from the Defense Department, to combat the coronavirus and bully the
unvaccinated. But maybe we shouldn’t be too concerned based on the Defense
Department’s recent performance in Afghanistan.
Democrats love
taxing the hell out of those with gainful employment. They love spending other
people’s money, often on schemes to help them attain or retain power. They have
the temerity to label a tax cut a “risky spending scheme.” They currently plan
to raise taxes across the board, and promise a corporate tax rate higher than communist China’s.
Democrats
routinely traffic in obfuscation, projection, deceptions and lies. The vast majority of
elected Democrats are for baby genocide, obstruction of justice, and a
return to a race-based society, and against election integrity and the
concept of God-given rights.
To say this
has been devastating to the nation they supposedly serve is an understatement
of Biblical proportions. Look at what’s happened in just the past 8 months. The
United States went from energy independence to being once again dependent on potentially
hostile nations for its economic lifeblood. It can’t or won’t control its own
border. It has suffered a humiliating military defeat in Afghanistan…because
it chose to do so. The U.S. is experiencing rapidly rising inflation combined
with high unemployment, probably on its way to “stagflation” for only the second
time. Violent criminals are being let out of prison by the
thousands, while patriots and non-mask-wearers are being
mocked, harassed, fined, and sent to jail. Leftists are sneeringly pitting
Americans against each other, demanding…demanding!... that race, creed,
color, sex, sexual orientation, class, party-- and relative affinity for masks
and vaccines--define us.
We are
losing our Judeo-Christian values, our country, and our humanity…because
we are allowing them to be stripped away and stolen from us. We can’t hide that
failure behind a mask.
The Biden
administration and the Democratic Party have inflicted a feeling of impotence
on the country. There is a growing sense of unease and hopelessness. A sickening
sense that evil is supplanting innocence…and mocking it—and us—as…it
ascends to power.
No foreign
power, no war-- foreign or domestic—and no dictator has ever before held so
much power over us, nor posed such an imminent threat. Stalin, Hitler, Tojo, Mao,
Putin, Xi, Kim Jong un? Not even close.
It is
inarguable that the Democratic Party, as constituted today, is the single
biggest threat to the United States of America. It is an existential—and
immediate—threat, a clear and present danger to the world’s most important
representative republic. Period. There, I’ve said it. It’s the truth.
Democrats do
not care about the personal autonomy, prosperity, morality, liberty, or
well-being of the majority of Americans. Individuals mean nothing to them. They
favor certain groups they use to obtain the only thing that matters to them: power
and control.
As Thomas
Jefferson-- and the other Founders-- knew from the thorough studying of all
forms of government that went before them, there can be only two types of
societies. 1) When government fears the people, there is liberty. 2) When the
people fear the government, there is tyranny.
Upon leaving
the Constitutional Convention of 1787, Benjamin Franklin was famously asked
what kind of government he and his fellow Founders had given Americans. He
replied, “A republic, if you can keep it.”
We did Mr. Franklin, we did. For 233 years.
Until Nov. 3, 2020, when we just let it slip
away.
Or perhaps
it was stolen from us. Along with our soul.
So mask up
and prepare to be locked down—again-- comrades. Maybe forever.
