Sen.
Tim Kaine, D-Va., during a recent Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing,
stated: "The notion that rights don’t come from laws and don’t come from
the government, but come from the Creator — that’s what the Iranian government
believes. It’s a theocratic regime that bases its rule on Shia law and targets
Sunnis, Bahá’ís, Jews, Christians and other religious minorities.”
He
added, "They do it because they believe that they understand what natural
rights are from their Creator. So, the statement that our rights do not come
from our laws or our governments is extremely
troubling.” Memo to Insane Kaine: the Iranian mullahs believe that Allah
has gifted them the right to determine what—if any—rights others have. Or
that he meant to. The mullahs have subsequently decided that others, especially
women, have no rights. Or very few of them.
In
this utterance, Tinpot Tim has gone on record as rejecting the core principle
of the Declaration of Independence…and America’s founding. And the reason it
has been the freest land in the world. At least until recently.
The
U.S. was founded on the principle that all men are created equal because our
rights come from our Creator; not from government or the laws it makes. Or from
the likes of Tim Kaine. People of the world, please understand: THIS IS THE
MOST SALIENT ASSERTION/RECOGNITION IN HISTORY.
Why?
Because if this were not the case, were not true, then the Holocaust could not
have been inherently evil. Nor could Mao Zedong’s killing of perhaps a hundred
million souls. Or Stalin’s execution of 40 million hapless inhabitants of the Fatherland/Motherland.
If we have no rights but those “bestowed” upon us by others and governments,
elected or not, then whatever they decide to do to us is definitionally fine,
legal. Exterminate the Jews? The Nazis have spoken. Kill our political
opponents? Democrats are sorely tempted. Trump decides to imprison every Democrat?
That would simply be his choice.
There
is no way for a free society to long exist if the ideas of natural law and
natural rights granted us by our Creator are not acknowledged.
Leftists?
They are A-okay with that possibility. Because then they get to pick up the slack
and play God themselves.
