Democrats Distilling Down To Anti-Democracy Anarchist

You can never predict what will be left at the core of a once broad movement when it comes to the ends of its run, but the Democrat party is demonstrating how history (and probably God) maintains a core of irony as it weaves out fate.
We have seen since their last (and probably final) ascendancy to power an amazing string of troubling behavior from the Democrats, which in turn created a mass exodus of support culminating in the political wipe out of the 2010 elections. Not only did the Democrats get wiped out in the US House of Representatives, they were creamed across the nation in numerous state houses and governorships. The true impact of this sea change is still playing out, but the picture emerging of the Democrat Party spells serious trouble for the left. Even in the Senate the Dems only barely held on, something everyone knows was only delayed until 2012.
Let’s look at the complete history of political incoherence that has culminated in the anti-democracy rage now flaming up over the moderate changes being passed in Wisconsin. From this context one can truly grasp the implosion the left is now experiencing.
In 2003 Texas Democrats initiated the desperate last act of running from Democracy to supposedly protect it. The foolishness of their logic was not lost on anyone but the die hard left, who really do not support democracy beyond how they can exploit it for their warped agenda. The true pillars of democracy DO NOT lie in how well one behaves when winning the votes, but how strongly one remains committed to the process and ideals of democracy when one is losing votes. It is those who stick with Democracy even when their votes will not carry the day who truly uphold Democracy and its freedoms.
That is why the Texas Killer D’s – as they were called in the day – were so aptly named. Running from votes or stopping the acts of democratic governance are really an attack on Democracy. Out of their arrogance they attempted to kill democracy and representative government. I guess petulance is also blind.
In 2009 when the last Congress took over the rampage against the rules of Democracy went into high gear. The mythology of Democrat Democracy were on full display as the Democrats used all sorts of transparent trickery to subvert representative government and replace it with oppression and corruption.
Remember the Stimulus Bill which could not be debated because it was needed to stop historic unemployment? We learned later it was not designed to be in full swing for at least a year given the sluggish and clumsy process of government procurement. We were told a lie to avoid debate. Those who short-cutted the representative process then also began the process of dismantling our democracy under Pelosi, Reid and Obama.
From there we were assaulted with bribes throughout the Senate to pass health care (see here and here), and the fiction of ‘deeming a bill’ passed when it was never even voted on – a pure and simple lie. A lie to America and a bastardization of our Democracy. It was not a one-off exception, it has become the model of the Democrat Party’s fall into an anti-democracy movement.
Now look at Wisconsin and see how the Democrats’ path to the dark side is complete. As we go through this latest phase, remember there was no way for the Dems to win – so they could only send a message. A message America is getting 5×5 (loud and clear).
First, those wacky nutjobs on the left ran from their posts and hid out in another state, repeating the stupid mistakes of the Killer D’s in Texas. As I said, one supports democracy in showing how to lose votes – and this is act of running away is not an act of democracy. Then came the protests, which are fine to a point. But you also have to recall how Communism and Nazism began – with protests that quickly crossed the line.
Democracy cannot be threatened by the mob of petulant anarchy. Even worse, those threats can never be considered or claimed to be acts of democracy. When the protesters went from voicing their views to threatening and halting the process of democracy they crossed the line between patriot and traitor. How do death threats against GOP lawmakers differ from death threats and later massacres of opposition leaders in Nazi Germany, Soviet Russia, Pol Pot’s Cambodia or Saddam’s Iraq? And how is the hatred of the Evangelicals by the left all that different from Hitler’s loathing of the Jews? The gaps between the far left and the enemies of humanity are shrinking to disturbingly small levels.
Gabrielle Gifford and her constituent were mowed down by a leftist anarchist who hated the GOP and was a 9-11 Truther. Governor Walker and the GOP senators are under guard now because leftists are on the verge of completely letting lose with their bile and hate.
All because the unions are being forced to share the pain of this recession. I mentioned earlier that the Democrats were never going to win – just like the Killer D’s in Texas had no hope of winning either. Here is why they were blocked in and failed to show up for the vote on restricting SOME ASPECTS of the collective bargaining of SOME unions in Wisconsin. They knew that if they showed up to vote the GOP would swap in the previous bill and they would lose the vote. So they stayed away knowing the GOP would separate out the union rules from the budget, hoping to send a message.
The message sent is the unions and left are truly confused and incoherent. Rich, fat, moron Michael Moore was out claiming he was fighting the rich – when everyone knew this was a battle between the voters and the unions. What the unions really showed was their belief they were superior to everyone else and did not have to sacrifice for the common good. And now they have confirmed they are not only too good to be impacted by economic realities, but they do not believe in, nor will they support, our democracy and brand of governance.
The Democrats have lost the moderate and independents who covered up the extremism burning at their pathetic core. In their frustration and arrogance, they have exposed their true values and beliefs. This exposure will completely undermine the movement, since it opposes what most of us stand for at our American core. When they decided to disrupt our democracy to protect their wallets, and turned to violence and mob thuggery to achieve their ends, they crossed a line that will not be uncrossed.
