Death, Tyranny, And The Pursuit Of Misery


There was a time not too long ago when the Democratic Party was more subtle in their wording. You had to read between the lines a bit more to understand their code words. Words and phrases like "for the people", "a working wage", and "a fair shake for all" were more nuanced ways to ultimately candy coat their socialist ideas and platform. But that was before Donald Trump came along. Hard to say what is more frightening and disconcerting. The fact that Democrats like Hillary Clinton lied for so many years when they said they wanted abortion to be safe, legal, and rare or that they feel so free and open now they don't have to lie anymore. What is not up for argument is that over the last several days and weeks that veil is now completely gone.

The Democrats have been tripping over each other to show the American people just how much they have become the Party of Karl Marx. From Elizabeth Warren wanting to create a wealth tax on Americans with more than $50 million in total assets to the youthful socialist star, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, proposing a marginal tax rate of as high as 70% to fund a "Green New Deal" we see the socialist tenet of redistribution of wealth on full-scale display. Not to be outdone, Kamala Harris proposed the abolition of private health insurance under her "Medicare for All" plan. Yes, welcome to more big government tyranny and less freedom and liberty. And, yes, God is on their hit list too. A key committee in the Democrat-controlled House of Representatives is moving to eliminate the God reference from the oath administered to witnesses who testify before the panel. The words "so help you God" will be replaced with "under penalty of law." Welcome to Stalingrad.

But if that doesn't happen to shock you enough the Democrats have the icing on the cake for you. Governor Cuomo signed the Reproductive Health Act into law in New York. The law for the first time allows abortions after the 24-week mark to protect the mother's health or in cases where the fetus won't survive. Previously, abortions after that point were permitted only to preserve a mother's life. The legislation also removes abortion from the criminal code and clarifies that a range of medical professionals, not just licensed physicians, can perform the procedure. And in Virginia, Democrats introduced a bill that would allow abortion while a woman was in labor. Throw out partial-birth abortions at 20 weeks. That isn't extreme enough for your Democrats anymore. No, full-throttle infanticide is the new push in their platform. That puts their views on abortion in line with China, North Korea, and Vietnam. Let that sink in.


What has become crystal clear is that the campaign slogan for the Democratic Party in 2020 is, "Death, Tyranny, and the Pursuit of Misery." From their stances on abortion, taxes, government control, curtailing the Second Amendment, open borders, stifling free speech, and eliminating any last vestiges of God they have completed their transformation from Democrats to Marxists-Leninists. Make no mistake, if the American voters give the Democrats full control of the House, Senate, and White House in 2020 they will have effectively signed the death certificate of our republic. With more and more Americans in favor of socialism, especially the millennials, one wonders if the Democrats will find more support now that they have cast off their veil. That remains to be seen. Will enough Americans understand the price of socialism? History has shown us socialism is responsible for the deaths of more than 100 million people. Each and every Marxist socialist regime has prevailed by way of a pistol to the back of the head and a death sentence in a forced labor camp. There is no exception whether in China under Mao, North Korea under Kim Il Sung, Vietnam under Ho Chi Minh, Cuba under Castro, or Cambodia under Pol Pot. Socialism depends on dictatorship to attain and remain in power. The Democrats are banking that over half of the American people really don't comprehend history and the dark misery and despair that comes with socialism. Let's hope they are just as wrong on that as they are in their ideology.

When The Thought Police Come Calling

Image
  The thought police are alive and well and coming to your house, if you are a conservative thinker that is. Twitter decided to use their iron fist after the U.S. Capitol events to begin purging conservative accounts on their social media platform. Google and Apple decided to ban Parler from their app download stores on smartphones. Yes, Big Tech wants everyone to know they are the enforcers of what constitutes legitimate thought and what is deemed hate speech. Welcome to George Orwell's "1984". He should have entitled it, "2021".  This should send chills down your spine. Some will say these are businesses and thus they are allowed to choose who is on their various platforms. It's not a free speech issue they say and it doesn't bother them at all. While Twitter and Facebook are perfectly free to purge their users under their user agreements it should be a warning of what is to come. Remember Big Tech companies control much of the internet. These platform...

The Abject Failure Of Nixon's China Policy

Image
On February 21st, 1972 President Richard Nixon arrived in China for a historic eight-day trip. He was taking a risky gamble. But in Nixon's mind it was a gamble worth taking. Nixon wrote: "The world cannot be safe until China changes. Thus our aim, to the extent that we can influence events, should be to induce change. The way to do this is to persuade China that it must change: that it cannot satisfy its imperial ambitions." He had three main goals. First, opening up China would give the United States more flexibility on the world scene. Second, it would provide the U.S. more leverage against the Soviet Union and get their attention. Third, he hoped it would help in resolving the Vietnam War and provide for a way to pull out and save face. Ultimately, Nixon didn't get his wish on Vietnam. China continued to provide arms, materials, and fighters to the North Vietnamese leading America to a humiliating retreat. He fared much better though on his goal of gaini...

The American Version Of Mao's Cultural Revolution

Image
  In August 1966, Mao Zedong launched the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution in China to reassert ideological purity and purge what he saw was a growing embrace of bourgeois values and a diminishing revolutionary spirit. The goal was to rid the Chinese population of the "Four Olds". Those consisted of old customs, old culture, old habits, and old ideas. It was meant to be a cleansing, if you will, and a transforming of an old China into an ideologically pure nation worthy to continue in Mao's vision. Now, fifty-five years later, we are witnessing an American version of Mao's Cultural Revolution.  This neo-Marxist "Cultural Revolution" in America hasn't happened overnight. It has been a steady and systematic assault on God, American values, American historical icons, and our Constitution. It has accelerated over the past year and it will continue to gain momentum given that Democrats are in control.  This revolution was in its infancy during the late 1...
