Democrat Failures

Democrat Failures By Tank It seems that Democrats are more and more nomadic–wandering from presidential epithets to anguished groans about Bush’s judicial nominees, searching desparately for a identity (apart from liberal insanity, that is).

Victor Davis Hanson authored a tremendous piece on the failings of the modern Democratic party and why the Democrats will continue to fail. Hanson highlights some of the Democrats hypocrisy:

[T]here is the widening gulf between word and deed — and Americans hate hypocrites most of all. When you meet a guy from the Chamber of Commerce or insurance association, you pretty much know that what you see is what you get: comfort with American culture and values, an upscale lifestyle that reflects his ideology and work, and no apologies for success or excuses for lack of same.

But if you listen to Dr. Dean and his class venom, it hardly seems comparable with how he lives or how he was brought up. John Kerry’s super power boat, Teresa Kerry’s numerous mansions, Arianna Huffington’s gated estate, George Soros’s jet, Ted Turner’s ranches, Sean Penn’s digs — all this and more, whether fairly or unfairly, suggest hypocrisy and insincerity: Something like, “High taxes, government regulation, racial quotas, and more entitlements won’t hurt me since I have so much money at my own disposal anyway, but will at least make me feel good that we are transferring capital to the less fortunate.”

They may pathetic but I wouldn't fall into the trap that they are stupid. They are a breed that believes in a different goal than personal freedom and liberty. They envision world partnerships were the US is just a minor player that has little or no power. Just listen to them speak, watch how they vote and watch them reach for your wallet.

They claim to be a party of faith but rarely miss an opportunity to slam Christianity every possible chance.

They claim to be for helping minorities but force them to educate their children in poor public schools dooming generations to live in poverty while their children often go to the best private schools.

They claim to help retired people by preventing changes to the social security system but they themselves have opted out.

They claim to be against gas guzzling autos but continue to fly private jets, ride in limos and the biggest SUV's.

They claim to support the troops but take every chance they get to cut down their mission, their reason for joining the service, and anyone that is in their chain of command.

They try to destroy traditional institutions like the Boy Scouts, family values, marriage, the military, religious faith, individualism and self reliance. If they can't chip it away they infiltrate it and rot it from the inside.

Democrats are not stupid. They are manipulative and dangerous. They should be stopped at every turn. Unfortunately, they have infiltrated the GOP ranks. They are our RINOs. Wolves in sheeps clothing. RINOs cannot be trusted either.
