It’s just Marx – subject, object, and alienation. Communism was just a particular application, but the Marxist philosophical system has permeated deeply the social-political and educational cultures.

Unfortunately for them, they misunderestimate how the Left works.

Perhaps they didn’t know Jack (Daniels) but they surely knew Sam (Adams).

“What has saved us?”

The answer to that question is, IMO, the brilliant concept of govt based upon a contract with the people and the unique non-violent transfer of power that our Founding Fathers created.

The older I get the more amazed I become at that unique and exceptional convergence of those great and prescient minds

Having been sailing for 4+ years with the MSM at their back I suspect that many in this administration began to believe that they could get away with anything and the apologist press would cover for them.

Hubris begets Nemesis, however, and I think that the administration has committed two fatal flaws. First they used the IRS as a political tool in a particularly egregious manner. The fact is that the IRS is the “enemy” that everyone loves to hate; even those who support big govt can hate the IRS and not fear being called “hypocrites.”

Secondly, knowingly overstepping their constitutional bounds, this administration picked on Fox News. IMO they believed that the MSM which has, itself, criticized Fox as a “Republican mouthpiece,” would not only cover for them by making it a non-story, but cover for them by explaining the logical rationale of targeting Fox. After all, this has been the MSM pattern.

Let’s count the new critics: Bob Scheiffer, Jon Stewart, Piers Morgan, Eugene Robinson, Juan Williams, Maureen Dowd, Ryan Lizza . . . . It’s clear that Obama and Co. have chosen poorly. He has become America’s “Foundering Father.”

Preference cascade anyone?

Something will survive. Maybe it will be just snails and cockroaches as George Carlin says, well, better not say what he says here. But in polite words he reminds us of that existence which will go on.

Is there any wonder as to the swift race!

Yeah, the Rule of Law is over, folks. We as a nation are kind of in the Wile E. Coyote position of running on confidently, right off that cliff, and just before he looks down. The Leftists have never given a rat’s hairy posterior about law, for cryin’ out loud.

This strikes me as worth contemplating: America is by far the richest and most glittering prize ever dangled before the sinful human race. Agreed? More power and more wealth than any nation in the history of mankind.

Now. Think of the track record of humans in pursuit of much smaller prizes. . . . is there anything, any horror, lies, violence, left undone?

What has saved us? I would say the Enlightenment and the mores of Protestant Christianity — the latter is why the Left trains its guns on “evangelicals” most of all. Both combine to make the moral and intellectual fiber of our former shield and guardian, the Constitution of the United States of America.

Leftists are even now bringing their guns to bear on “rampant individualism” (“Rampant” is the pejorative adjective the Hive Mind has chosen; I’ve seen it cropping up in the latest books). That, if you remember your European history, has its roots in the Protestant Reformation.

So. Nothing, no skulduggery, no malfeasance, no evil act, should surprise you in the Left’s pursuits of its goal — the total demolition of the Great Opponent of communism and Guardian of Freedom, America. Because nothing was ever off the table in previous contests with much smaller stakes.

Was it?
