A Great Team: Democrats and Muslim Terrorists
The past ten days or so have had a very sick feel to them. We have the insanity of Islam continuing its daily murderous assault on humanity, the Egyptian bombings being the most current example. Islam seems to hate everyone, including Muslims, and wants to kill everyone, including Muslims. This isn't a religion, it's yet another Freddy Krueger sequel. Meanwhile the President of Iran continues to talk of wiping Israel off the map as he builds his nuclear bomb.
Meanwhile, back in the States, the treasonous Democrats continue to undermine their own country in the belief that this will win them seats in Congress. They attack Donald Rumsfeld and call for his resignation, but it is simply a predictable part of their playbook. Indeed, it is a good example of the Machiavellian mindset of the modern Democratic Party: attack the Secretary of Defense in the middle of a war, say that he is incompetent and give great moral support to the enemy in the process.
One remembers the leaked Democrat memo of November 2003, wherein Democrat members of the United States Select Committee on Intelligence plotted to misuse intelligence for partisan purposes, proving they love their party more than their country. The ruthless Democrats would sell out the war on terror if it meant recapturing the White House. They have no ethic other than their will to power.
Two years ago, Sean Hannity wrote (in his book "Deliver Us From Evil") about how that the Democrats planned many public circuses in which Administration officials would be implicated in wrong doing and publicly grilled in Kangaroo Courts, and how they planned to demand the resignation of a high Administration official on whatever pretext they could find, purely to embarrass and weaken Bush in an election year. Hannity proved right when they began to demand Rumsfeld's resignation in the midst of a war. So why are they now going after Rumsfeld again? Because a Congressional election happens this year.
All of the above is true, but I take little comfort in the free-spending Republicans, who came to Washington a decade ago to drain the swamp of political corruption but instead decided it made a pretty good sauna. President Bush is far better than anything the Democrats have to offer, but he is a big disappointment in many ways. He has done absolutely nothing about the tide of illegals who are flooding our Southern border and nothing realistic about ending our over-dependence on Middle Eastern oil. He makes nice speeches about how we are "addicted" to oil, as if there were other options immediately available. He talks of turning switch grass into methanol. He would be no less credible if he advocated wind sails for every automobile, or perhaps hamsters on turn wheels. What we need is to drill in ANWR and off our coasts and to build new oil refineries and nuclear power plants. Bush, however, doesn't have the gonads to tell the unpopular truth. He has failed to lead the Republicans or hold them accountable with the veto, failed to defend himself against the Democrats or their spokesmen in the main stream media, failed to clearly define the enemy and the threat we now face, and failed to articulate or advocate a realistic and effective energy policy.
So what do we do now? What should our strategy be? It's a big question.
" proving they love their party more than their country."
ReplyDeleteYou make a good point here, politics at the expense of the people/country
However - I certainly hope you do not feel that the republicans are exempt from the disease! They paly the game well.
Evidence is begining to show that this administration may be playing the game so well that it is scary!!

All of our old paradigms are finished. This is the time of such change in our mental climates that we must be at our sharpest to navigate from day to day. There is a hurricane of change taking place around us, and none of the old ways will lead us to anything but chaos and disaster. It's time to stop thinking in terms of the old leadership in government. This is the time when we have to rise into the aether to find our new path. I have no guidance other than to say that the Republicans and the Democrats, the Left or the Right, that these labels are torn and soiled and worthless. We, the ones who live today, we have to recreate politics from the ground up, to the aether and back again.
ReplyDeleteI think we'll do this by meeting publicly, man to man, face to face, to make our way into a new nation and a new reality. The people, idividuals, must take political power and elect representatives to our congress of citizens. We need new moral leaders to conduct and guide the communion of souls. We need new and honest men and women to present the united voice of our nations to ourselves, public intellectuals, professors, journalists, philosphers who will propound a new world-view.
Forty years in this desert and now it's worse than ever. It's time we move on to something right.

dag, I see no quotes on your comment, are these your words??
In any case this is the damn finest exression of the current state of humanity I have heard/seen on a blog of this type!!!
I am impressed that the words are on the screen.
Gary
Kumbaya, Lord, Kumbaya....
ReplyDeleteThat was for Gary.
Dag, you are right though. Whatever we're doing, it's not working and it's time to do something different.
This will be ignored like it always has by the world.

Aint that what I have been saying??? All Along?
It's the us against them, right here in the system, that has to change.
By the way - are Bro and Stogie on the same page? Bro posts a fine quote (II Chron. 7:14).
and Stogie mocks me with kumaya....
I do not know if Dag said it - or copied it - but the message is obvious on several fronts.

I found this excerpt on Bill Totten's blog:
ReplyDelete"Even if we swept the halls of Congress and the White House clean of every corrupt and cruel politician, the deeper self-indulgence of an affluent culture would be untouched."
TV, the media - consumerism and materialism - all good things in MODERATION. We have gone beyond that, as a whole, and have become unsustainable. The polititians push us in those directions becvause it is good for the economy, if not for the Country!
All part of the "it's not working, and need change" thing from above.
Gary
Gary, the "us against them" mode should be avoided whenever possible. We need to find a way to make our political system work without this, if at all possible.
ReplyDeleteBut don't take the concept too far. Communists and capitalists are never going to be buddies, nor are Islamists and Western democrats. The Jews who were murdered by the Nazis had no realistic way to change the minds of their murderers.
See, we do agree/partially at least.
ReplyDeleteWhat I think is that we need to fix the friction within our own system/politics before we can attempt to fix world relations.
I am sad to say this, but I feel we may be more likely to fall from within, than be hurt from the outside. The us agaisnt them in the system divies the country. Remember, united we stand, divided.................
This is a great country, yet has ills that need healing! That is my message.
Remember we said question everything - well - question that which we feel most confident in. If it stands up - move on. If it does not stand up - we have identified where to put our effort.
Gary
Gary, I agree with you that if America is to be destroyed, it will be Americans who are most likely to do it.
ReplyDeleteTo Gary again - I think Bill Totten is wrong about nearly everything. What on earth is wrong with being an affluent culture??
ReplyDeleteBill only posts articles from around - where ever he finds them - they are credited on his posts. ( he seems to post varying points of view - I think it is great)
ReplyDeleteNothing is wrong with affluence - so long as it does not get short sighted and self dectructive. We may, and I say may, be on the verge of getting what we asked for. Not that we knew the concequences before they started to show up - but still we are not slowing and re-adjusting in the face of evidence for the need.
As long as life is good (on the surface) we trust politicians too much. (very dangerous) We tend not to care about the probelms of corporate farming and agriculture, as long as we are eating well. We get side tracked about the global warming issue when the real problem is clean air to breath. (you may remember that in the 70's the politicaly charged scientists were yelling about global COOLING, the ice age was upon us!) Oops, maybe they were wrong!
I could go on, but will just say that there are real problems we NEED to address and the friction in the factions is taking away from the effort. Can you imagine how much we could accomplish with co-operation in the ranks!?!?
I think the point in the article, was that the people need to open their eyes and do what is right for themselves. It may require changing buying habits. To do so requires information that we are not getiing in the "normal" channels.
Gary
Hmm I love the idea behind this website, very unique.
