If I were the Devil . . . I mean, if I were the Prince of Darkness, I would of course, want to engulf the whole earth in darkness. I would have a third of its real estate and four-fifths of its population, but I would not be happy until I had seized the ripest apple on the tree, so I should set about however necessary to take over the United States. I would begin with a campaign of whispers. With the wisdom of a serpent, I would whisper to you as I whispered to Eve: “Do as you please.” “Do as you please.” To the young, I would whisper, “The Bible is a myth.” I would convince them that man created

The American people wouldn’t listen to reason in LBJ’s 1965 and they surely are not in Mrs. Bill’s 2016!

Then along came obama, and... odd how the two sets of priorities match up.

I remember his show. There was always someone shot in the fracas wherever that is. :-)

“PROGRESSIVE” GOAL? TO ELIMINATE GOD
The incessant “progressive” leftist promoted debate about gay marriage isn’t about gay marriage.
The incessant “progressive” leftist promoted debate about homosexuality isn’t about homosexuality.
The incessant “progressive” leftist promoted debate about teen sexuality isn’t about teen sex.
The incessant “progressive” leftist promoted debate about promiscuity and marital infidelity isn’t about promiscuity.
The incessant “progressive” leftist promoted debate about no-fault divorce isn’t about divorce.
The NEW “progressive” leftist promoted debate about transgender bathrooms isn’t about transgender bathrooms.
And the NEW “progressive” leftist promoted debate about adult-child sexuality isn’t about pederasty or pedophilia.
The Utopian “progressive” left seeks to replace God with man (or SOME VERY “SPECIAL” MEN!), and God’s universe with one of man’s design.
The “progressive” left seeks to abolish God’s creation of sex, gender, and sexuality.
In another area, the “progressive” left seeks to convince us that man alone controls the universe. When the left claims that man causes climate change and man causes earthquakes (by fracking, water injection, etc.), the “progressive” left is seeking to eliminate God.
“Progressive” leftists believe, or claim to believe, that a junta of wise men – made so by birth to the “right” parents or educated in the “right” universities – can perfect the world. Think utopia or heaven on earth.
To achieve their goal, the “progressive” left must destroy God in the minds of the men they seek to rule.
Ironically, it was the agnostic, humanist, Darwinist commentator H.L.Mencken who summarized the goal of the “progressive” left in these 16 words:
“The urge to save humanity is most often a false front for the urge to rule.”
Taking their cue from George Orwell, they call themselves “progressives”, hoping that the uninformed and ignorant among us would be fooled by this gaggle of Utopian fools who seek to drag us to another of the command societies that have always failed.
Do you remember back to the 2008 “election” when the arch “progressive” Obama declared that he would “transform America”? At the time I and many others asked to what would we wish to “transform” – in other words “PROGRESS” – a nation based on these words?
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”
After nearly 8 years of a “progressive” leftist in the White House, we have our answer: We have been transformed BACKWARD (regressed) from the truths of the Declaration and a “Creator” honoring people to a nation of soon to be slaves ruled by elitist Utopians who, by virtue of their “superiority”, know far better how we should live our lives than we do.
The vernacular for that is TOTALITARIANISM!
There is no room for a “Creator” in such a system.
There is also NO ROOM FOR “..LIFE, LIBERTY OR ...HAPPINESS”.
(Fairness dictates that I confess that the idea for the lamentable litany at the top of this piece was shamelessly “stolen” – with his permission – from fellow Freeper mbarker12474.)

I was in a Culver City, CA Auto Parts store (80s’ California)
heard someone talking like Paul Harvey, looked over...it was him.

It's so much better when you hear him speak it.

David Horowitz has put it best, "The issue [insert any liberal issue, like climate change] is never the issue. The issue is always the [socialist] revolution."

Don't be fooled by the Left's sleight-of-hand for they never mean what they speak. Obama is a master at this by pointing at some new shiny object to distract everyone from his screw-ups.

After the massacre in Orlando, he comes out and says the usual, (paraphrasing), "We are saddened by the loss, we don't know the motivations but I'll get to the bottom of this for the American people and I am so angry I could shoot a Republican." Blah, blah, blah. Yada, yada, yada.

Liberal-speak translation: "We are so excited to not have to waste this tragedy by taking advantage of another opportunity to get rids of guns."

And that last sentence is not satire....

I have read this many times and the message still resonates. For years people have forwarded this message all over America but how many heeded the warning. True Americans like Paul Harvey, those who sound the warning. . .their message, too, falls on deaf ears. I fear for our country.

Yep. It's ALWAYS about "THE STRUGGLE".

And "NEVER LET A GOOD CRISIS GO TO WASTE".

And Goldwater was spot on when he famously remarked that he wished he could saw off the East Coast and set it adrift in the Atlantic.

He should have included the West (LEFT) Coast. Those people are bat shit crazy as well. Must be all that desalinated sea water they drink!

"First we will take Eastern Europe, then the masses of Asia. We will encircle the last bastion of capitalism, the United States of America. We will not need to fight. It will fall as a ripe fruit into our hands." Lenin All indicators point to the spread of this madman's insanity throughout much of the rest of America and the world.  It begs this existential question:  WILL WE SURVIVE IT? We'll know more after November!  photo Lenin-Seattle text_zps6wxaz25h.jpg
