“These are not your father’s Democrats”

Peter Ferrara at the American Spectator catalogues the Democrat Party’s evolving authoritarian dynamic.
This is the party that rejected Hillary Clinton because she was not left enough. Instead it literally took a Marxist street agitator from the Chicago political machine and put him in the White House. Barack Obama was actually teaching the social manipulation methods of openly communist revolutionary Saul Alinsky to other Marxist revolutionaries for the radical communist front group ACORN. His weird name reflects his personal rejection of American culture. This is the person today's Democrat party wanted for President.
Defeating Obama may turn out to be the most patriotic thing we, as a nation, have done in recent memory. If we can do it, that is. I am, to use a tired phrase, “guardedly optimistic”; however, I am also aware that people, and nations, sometimes have short memories, and frequently have to learn the same hard lessons over and over. Are we really going to have to trudge all the way to the terminus of a dead-end path in order to find out that we’ve been moving in the wrong direction? I pray not. Of course, contra Andrew Sullivan and Newsweek, the problem isn’t really that Obama’s critics are dumb, it’s that so many voters are. The “dumbing down” of America can’t help but have a negative impact at the polls, over time, as the lazy, stupid, envious, complacent and misinformed, mostly unwittingly, trade away their freedom in return for empty hype and unfulfillable promises (these are in addition to the ideological diehards who either can’t see how bad the end result will be, or can see it perfectly, but expect to be among the nomenclatura). Here’s hoping that the dumb factor is lower than it was last time.

From your fingerbones to God's monitor.

We need not only to rid the Presidency of the worst inhabitant it has ever suffered, but we need to sweep the Reid Dems out of the Senate as well.

Well it's the same party which gave us the Kennedys, Carter and Bill Clinton, so maybe the problem does have deep roots.

I've never understood why the USA should have leftists, but I guess this 'not your father's dems' argument helps win the center.

Deborah Leigh said... The arrival of "Progressives" is not recent history. Americans, elected and average, didn't believe Kruschev when he revealed the game plan, that America would be taken over not be force, but by slowly introducing socialism, which would eventually lead to communism.

As the little girl said in "Poltergeist", "They're here."
