Since the early 1960s during the Viet Nam years and continuing in crescendo with each decade thereafter, the left has cultivated a sentiment of open hatred towards all of America’s institutions, the office of the presidency, our armed forces, our flag, the sanctity of life, the institution of marriage, religious men and women, and the rest of our traditional American values as put forth long ago by our forefathers. These venomous seeds planted at all levels of American society, seem to have finally been harvested on November 4^th 2008.

How else could we have possibly elected a candidate that found it difficult to wear an American flag on his lapel and who removed it from the surface of his plane? Someone who openly accused our military of air rating villages and killing civilians, someone whose list of friends and allies are the equivalent of the who-is-who of the “Hate-America-Society”, someone who rips our constitution and refers to it as a “charter of negative liberties”, who then talks about how to get around the limits that the constitution places on government, in hopes to achieve his desired plans for wealth and property redistribution, someone who openly discusses how to change the constitution, not in the democratic way foreseen by our forefathers, but through the use of “carefully selected” activist judges, the least democratic of all the branches.

To those of us who have lived within the bowels of socialism, is painful to see how like a phoenix that rises from the ashes of the toxic burnt trash heaps of society, the left works its way into the throngs of power by fanning the darkest passions of humanity, greed, envy, resentment and hate. Their discourse may sound appealing, filled with populist claims for justice, fairness and equality, but the reality as evident everywhere they have succeeded, is that the only true objective of the left is to subjugate the population, to seek unequivocal control and to perpetuate themselves in power.

Although the Soviet Union no longer exists, its ideology has thrived in our schools and universities for the last 60 years, this is why we now have several generations of people in government, civil service, business, education and mass media, that have been educated in universities where teaching patriotism is viewed as some sort of act of fascism, and where capitalism is said to be a system for exploiters and the greedy. Therefore when Obama says that he wants to “spread the wealth”, there is no indignation by an unsettling large segment of our fellow citizens, who simply lack the understanding of how such measures would totally transform our free society and destroy our entire economic system.

Back in the mid 1980s an ex-KGB defector by the name of Yuri Bezmenov was interviewed by a Ed Griffin. On this interview (that can be found on YouTube), Mr. Bezmenov gives a chilling account of what needs to be done to take down a country like ours, and later marvels at how far along the process had progressed in American society.

Below are the four steps as expressed by Bezmenov:

1-      Demoralization - "It takes from 15 to 20 years to demoralize a nation. Why that many years? Because this is the minimum number of years required to educate one generation of students in the country of your enemy exposed to the ideology of [their] enemy. In other words, Marxism-Leninism ideology is being pumped into the soft heads of at least 3 generation of American students without being challenged or counterbalanced by the basic values of Americanism; American patriotism."

2-     Destabilization - "Promise people all kinds of goodies, and the paradise on Earth.  To destabilize your economy to eliminate the principal of free market competition; and  to put a big brother government in Washington D.C.;"

3-   Crisis – "It may take only up to 6 weeks to bring a country to the verge of crisis.  You can see it in Central America now; and after crisis, with the violent change of power structure and economy, you have the period of so called "normalization" [which] it may last indefinitely."

4-     Normalization – "A cynical expression, borrowed from Soviet Propaganda.   When the Soviet tanks moved into Czechoslovakia in 1968, comrade Brezhnev said "Now the situation in brotherly Czechoslovakia is normalized".  This is what will happen in [the] United States if you allow all the shmucks to bring the country to crisis." 

When asked about what America could do to defend itself, Mr Bezmenov said:

“Well, the immediate thing that comes to mind is, of course, there must be a very strong national effort to educate people in the spirit of REAL patriotism, number one. Number two, to explain [to] them the real danger of socialist, communist, welfare state, Big Brother government. If people fail to grasp the impending danger; nothing ever will help the United States.  You may kiss goodbye your freedoms.   All this freedom will vanish in 5 seconds - including your precious lives.”

We need to put his comments in perspective, as they were spoken back in 1984, but who among us has not seen the demoralization that we have been subjected to in recent years, we are told how the entire world hates America, a premise that I would qualify by saying that the rest of the far left loons and the enemies of freedom throughout the world hate America, the good will free loving people of the world look at us as there last hope.

During the last eight years the left and their spokesman’s in the main stream media, have been telling us that we live under a constant state of crisis, the war, oil prices, the middle east, the environment, etc. and last but not least the financial crisis, brought about by the same socialist who through the enactment of social engineering projects, together with the coercing of our financial institutions,  promised “paradise on Earth” to their constituents, thus causing the destabilization of our entire economic system, something which they falsely blame on the un-viability of free markets.

During this “greatest economic crisis since the great depression” the voices from the left cannot even wait for a normal government transition to take place on January 20^th, they are instead asking that it be move up to December 1^st.  According to the newly appointed Chief Of Staff, Rahm Emanuel, the number one rule is to, “Never allow a crisis to go to waste; they are opportunities to do big things.” Much like the Czechoslovakians waited back in 1968, it appears that all that remains for America to do at this time, is to anxiously await its own period of “Normalization”.

I am sure that I am not alone in my distress over the long string of bailouts on the way, in a free capitalist society companies need to be allowed to go bankrupt and or reorganize. This will ultimately make them leaner and more competitive for the future, thus allowing the jobs and the industry to survive. These necessary corrections will cause some union contracts and debtors to sacrifice along with the investors of those companies; still this cleansing or reality check is necessary and must be allowed to take place.

As the saying goes, no pain no gain, this idea of a nanny state that provides a safety net for even the most reckless segments of society is one that we must resist. If we want long lasting progress and employment we need to be willing to let the forces of the free market, hold accountable those businesses and individuals that have either overextended themselves, or have been engaging in bad business practices.

To continue to bailout companies, without addressing the fundamental issues that has put them in the predicament that they are in, is like “spitting” in the wind, is a way of prolonging the arrival of an ultimate day of reckoning, which when it comes will be much more harder to contend with, since our entire economic system will be under greater distress due to all the “spitting in the wind” that it would have done by then.

To me it is not about personalities or political affiliation, be it Obama, Bush or McCain, it is about the philosophical direction that they would want to take the country instead. The biggest disappointment of the last eight years has been the unfettered spending that the Bush administration has allowed under its watch, it would be totally inconsistent with my thinking to support someone who wants to do even more of that. President Bush receives my ardent criticism for the irresponsible way in which he has allowed spending to run amuck, but I am not getting any comfort on this matter, as far as his would be replacement is concern.

A lot of lip service is being given about the need to help the middle class, yet no other economic model in the history of mankind has done more for the middle class than capitalism, nor is the standard of living of the so called middle class as high anywhere in the world, than what it is in true capitalist societies. It is a fallacy to suggest that centralized planning and government control is a more viable solution to help the middle class or any other class for that matter, since the Bolshevik revolution of 1919 and during the entire 20th century, history has been littered with destroyed economies that sought to help the middle class with their protectionist ideas. I underscore middle class, because when it is the government who determines where the middle should be, there is no telling where that “middle” ends up at. Our own economy of the 1930s is a testament to that.

The new president elect openly proclaims the failure of trickledown economics, a premise that I must challenge as well, if trickledown benefits are not being experience with the same rigor as before, is not because this proven theory has somehow gone array, it is because of the imposition of ineffective and intrusive government regulations, together with one of the highest corporate tax rates in the entire free world, that has choked the trickledown effect by driving investor away from our economy and on to more business friendly environments springing all around the world, after their own failed experiments with extreme government intervention and central planning.

This year’s campaign saw both candidates talk about punishing the greedy, however if either one of them really meant it, why are Franklin Raines, Tim Howard, Jim Johnson and Jaime Gorelick not under indictment? Not only are they not indicted, Franklin Raines was being considered for HUD secretary by the Obama team, until it became way too scandalous during the campaign, Jim Johnson was chosen to head the VP exploratory committee for Obama, and Jaime Gorelick is still being considered for a post on the upcoming administration.

If there was truly any desire to punish the greedy, why are representatives Barney Franks and Christopher Dodd not under investigation for having benefitted with hundreds of thousands of dollars from the very entities that they were suppose to have overseen? Why is congress not calling for hearings to find out why Franks and Dodd ran constant interference against any attempt to investigate the fraudulent acts of Fannie and Freddie Mac?

All Americans regardless of our political persuasion should be cautious of any political figure that bursts into the scene by seeking to segment us by gender, race, religion, national origin or economic status.

I am a conservative on most issues, and therefore have my own opinion as to what spectrum of the political landscape is the one most likely to promote class warfare; but I would equally repudiate any candidate that would actively engage on such an exercise, regardless of his or her political affiliation.

We are all Americans either by birth or by choice, therefore we should support candidates that see us all as un-hyphenated Americans, unethical politicians promote the various groups idea in order to better pander to them, the average uninformed voter takes the bate and that is how we end up with the level of government incompetence that we often get.

I find it offensive when politicians suggest that minorities need to have the scale tipped in their favor in order to succeed in our society, politicians that promote these type of policies may do so for a variety of reasons, some may truly want to help, but others I suspect do so in order to skew reelections their way, thus having nothing to do with true minority concerns.

However, regardless of the nature of their intentions, these acts are rooted in elitism and bigotry, they are bigots in denial on many cases, these are people who believe that minorities are lesser than they are and therefore incapable of succeeding on their own, they are engaging in the bigotry of lower expectations, while they genuinely believe themselves to be superior than their “inferior benefactors”.

The whole concept of “minorities” is a divisive concept in it and by itself; it creates this sense of us versus them, which should have no place in a free mobile society like ours. I am not an anarchist, government does indeed have its place, which is to foment the proper environment under which free men and women can flourish and compete on an even playing field, but that is where its involvement should end.

The reality is that McCain was a terrible candidate and although a lot more honorable than the shyster from Chicago, at the end of the day, neither he nor Obama had a clue as to what to do about the economy. Oh! Romney, Oh! Romney, where have you gone?

I believe that it was during the second debate, while watching it at a friend's home, that McCain surprised the country with a "great idea", he proposed to buy all bad mortgages with yet another tiny 300 billion dollar dip into the treasury chest, I remember putting my hands over my head and saying to all present, "with that statement he just lost the election" most did not agree, but how could conservatives who have long had trepidations about McCain go along with a socialist program like that one, especially after he later admitted to have copied it from Hillary (no less), I knew that such a program did not set well with me, and that it would not set well with fiscally responsible conservatives. Therefore on Election Day, I followed McCain’s mother advise of pinching my nose as I voted for him and casted my vote for Sarah. In spite of what the liberal pundits would have us believe, the only silver lining of the entire campaign was Sarah Palin, yet they never let her loose, it was obvious that Sara was in it for the win, while McCain just wanted us to get along.

Which brings us to where we are today, we have lost a battle, but I don't believe that it was lost last night, we have been working on this defeat since the moment that Republicans became more concern about reaching across the aisle and being liked by the Main Extreme Left Media, than to adhering to the conservative values of their constituency. Let's not forget that McCain was the leader of that pack, his own campaign finance legislature that Obama laughed at, helped to put the final nail on his coffin. But once again there is a silver lining, we can all now breathe a sigh of relief by knowing that we should have seen the last presidential bids from McCain and from Hillary, thus allowing all of us to thank them for our ulcers and move on with our lives.

Let us not forget that we are not the gloom and doom crowd and although we may have lost this battle, the war is far from over. If history has taught us anything again and again, is that the disease of Socialism and Liberalism does not work, I don't care if the ones administering are crooks, or brilliant men and women more pure than Mother Teresa, Socialism destroys individual freedoms, work ethic, productivity, initiatives, self reliance, standard of living, wealth, and it does this to rich and poor alike, so it is the destiny of hard working men and women with strong conservative values, to ultimately come along behind them to clean up the mess, as it is also their destiny to be vilified while they make the hard decisions that will ultimately need to be made to exterminate the disease and its roots into society.

After the Nixon years when Jimmy Carter enjoyed the benefit of both houses as well, the conservative movement reconstituted itself and it reigned until it began to look like and behave like the same party it dethroned. Santayana said "Those who refuse to learn the lessons of history are doomed to relive them." Republicans should remember these words, if we learned anything from this election cycle, isthat when Republicans allow themselves to be duped into "getting along" with far left radicals that are not interested in getting along, but who are only interested in buying time while in a position of weakness instead, they will always pay the price for doing so, the Main Extreme Left Media will gladly use them as useful idiots at their pleasure and spit them like rubbish on due time as they did with McCain, on this cycle the "Republicans" that lost were almost in their entirety the RINO (Republicans In Name Only), the conservatives retained their seats, (hopefully) lesson learned. 

To those of you who are now walking around feeling in the doldrums, know that we will live to fight another day, it is our philosophy that made America the greatest nation in the world, it is their philosophy that has bankrupt nations throughout the world, they may be able to “Fool some of the people some of the time…” but when the most pragmatic individuals who may have been convince to vote for the blank check “Change” this time around, become better informed as to what that change entails, and as the failures of the left become more evident, as they surely will, America will once again be able to right the ship, and steer itself away from the pestilence of Socialism, thus leaving it in the garbage pail of history, where it should have been left all along.

 The polls fluctuation, plus the following warning “"If your television declares John McCain the president elect on the evening of November 4th, your television will be lying. You should immediately pick up your pre-packed bags and head straight to the White House in Washington, DC, which we will surround and shut down until this attempt at a third illegitimate presidency is reversed. We may be there for days or weeks or months. But we must be there. We must be there by the millions. We must show each other, and the nation, and the world that we have had enough, that we will not stand for one more stolen election, that we will not give in to fear, lies, theft, and intimidation." --David Swanson, Washington director of Democrats.com and a board member of Progressive Democrats of America; makes Jerome Corsi’s story below worth noting, since it is quite possible that we may be seeing the Kenya option unfolding on our own backyard.

According to Jerome Corsi;“Obama's involvement amounted to coordination with Odinga on the campaign, according to the sources. The general tone of the strategy was to encourage the Odinga campaign to claim to be leading in the presidential race regardless of the actual numbers and be prepared to proclaim victory even if Odinga lost.”Sounds familiar?
