Democrats May be Anti-American
It is with a heavy heart and a gloomy mind that we consider the Democratic Party as being anti-American. It is not easy to regard with suspicion the actions of a party that has been a bulwark of freedom and democracy for so many years. When we finally realize and accept the fact that the Democratic Party will do virtually anything to win an election, even at the expense of America, it is disquieting to come to conclusions of this nature, and the heart grows heavy.
What else can we think when the Democrats hold up and 'stonewall' nominations of the President? What else can we think when Senator Kennedy loosens the immigration standards to the point that anyone can come into our country and do us harm? When this loosening of standards is done only to secure more votes from illegals? What else can we think when Democrats look for felons in prison to see if they can get one more vote? What else can we think when these people try to make more and more of us dependent on welfare? There is no concern that the country will suffer with these schemes and they might even see the demise of their own party when the opportunity arises to topple this nation.
Where is the thought and logic behind this stupidity? Don't they realize that their Utopian ideas have already been proven false? They are moving away from Capitalism. They are embracing Socialism, and our heroes and patriots and historical figures will be discarded by the Liberal Democrats. When they deliberately obstruct the recovery of our nation's economy, we begin to think of the Democrats as being anti-American, even to the point of treason.
When the left-leaning Liberal Media encourages the Democrats, they become a significant enemy to our nation. We are engaged in a battle for the minds of men and women, and the Media is funding our foe. We are in a battle to preserve Capitalism. Democrats and the Media tell us constantly that corporations are evil, selfish entities that should bow to Socialism and be governed by the State. Remember that in the expired Soviet Union, the initials USSR stood for the Union of Socialist Soviet Republics. They had a mighty army, weapons and missals coming out of their ears, but the people were hungry. Only the privileged few members of the Communist Oligarchy had any sort of luxury. The Socialist government was built on sand, and eventually imploded on itself.
Our left-leaning Media constantly supported this flawed government, and so did some of our Democratic congressmen. Are they traitors? At least they are anti-capitalist and are desiring to change our government, our culture, our values and everything we hold dear. Our history and our patriotism are at stake, and we are just now realizing that a party (Democrat) that wants to win elections at nearly any cost, including risking the destruction of our government, must be labeled anti-American at the least, and treasonous at the worst.
One question remains: Are the Democrats aware of the outcome of their actions? Or is winning an election more important to them? The lust for power is burning in their souls.
