Return of the Dupes and the Anti-Anti-Communists

[Eurale]

Since literally the founding of the American Communist Party in 1919, the extreme left -- specifically, the communists -- have relied upon genuine liberals to be dupes, or suckers, to help further their cause. Here's how it typically worked: the communists would engage in some sort of work or agenda, very focused, and which they would be prepared to publicly deny. Anyone who has done any work with or on communists, from New York City to Moscow, can speak at length about how they operated with deceit. As Vladimir Lenin had said, in a favorite quote cited often by Ronald Reagan, the only morality that communists recognized was that which furthered their interests.

The only problem here is that most liberals overtly agree with the principles of Communism. They are not being deceived in any way at all.

[Neidermeyer]

I agree with your assessment , most liberals here are fully in agreement with Communist teachings,, I see them as “unawakened” ,, running on feelings and such...basically fat dumb and happy.. if they ever honestly think through their positions they will become Conservatives overnight.

Communism IS socialism.. and socialism is and has been being taught in our colleges and high schools for decades.. When you get a socialist back from school its the parents fault not the school children..

Conservatives have been educating their kids in socialist run re-education camps for fifty years.. And THEY wonder what happened to all the conservatives.. WELL DUUUUGH..

Marxism ( Communism) is our nation's **most** serious threat. We can survive a nuclear suitcase bomb, but we will not survive if the communists win in the voting booth.

By the way, **schools** are the communists’ **most** important weapon. They have thoroughly and completely infiltrated every level of the educational process. They are hard at work indoctrinating the next generation of voters.

Also...It irritates me that Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and Bill OReilly fail to call liberals what they are. Geeze! They could at least take a minute or two each day to point out the communist philosophy that underlies everything a liberal says and does.

**ALL** liberals, leftists, progressives, and socialists are either communists or useful idiots ( without exception!). It is time to call the enemy what and who he is: Communism and communist!

We on Free Republic “get it”! We are far ahead of the talking pumpkins on talk radio. ( Rush, Hannity, OReilly).

According to research being circulated by GOP sources, Evans has a record of inflammatory statements such as saying that women were better off in Iraq under Saddam Hussein, "Men are dying in their Hummers in Iraq so you can drive around in yours" and, my favorite, that the invasion of Iraq amounted to "global testosterone poisoning."...

The Communist have always had successful disinformation programs, they are the most accompolished liars in history...the willing dupes have infested the institutions to a level where they can only be countered by a large concerted counter-disinformation program or armed revolt. We will face this choice in the near future.

[MtnClimber]

I see the battle between freedom (conservatism) and communism as the never ending battle between good and evil. I am afraid it will never end.

Without Big Journalism behind them, "liberals" would lose a good ten points in any election, IMHO. The question which has always plagued conservatives has been how to blunt the (unadmitted) support of journalists for their opponents, without opposing free speech and freedom of the press.

The actual problem is the tendency of Big Journalism to claim - and for the public to be unable to reject the fallacy of - Big Journalism's defining of the public interest. Certainly the attitude that journalism defines the public interest is embedded in the McCain-Feingold law, and the fact that John McCain actually accepts that premise is what defines him as a RINO. But the reality is that the rules of journalism - such as "'If it Bleeds, it leads," "Man Bites Dog' is a good headline but 'Dog Bites Man' isn't news" and "There's nothing more worthless than yesterday's newspaper" - are entertainment rules. They are rules for making the paper interesting to the public - and that is a different matter entirely that being "in the public interest."

An evenly matched struggle between a cop and a robber - still more so the victory of a robber over a cop - is interesting (if in a morbid way), but the certain victory of the cop over the robber is what is in the public interest. The signal success of the "surge" in Iraq is in the public interest, but the chaos that preceded the surge was what made "good copy." The effective functioning of the capitalist free market system has produced gradual miracles in the US over the generations - so much so that an American secretary of today might be ill-served to trade her circumstances for those which Queen Victoria enjoyed in her (1819-1901) day. Yet claims of "market failure" and "greedy capitalists" and "overpaid CEOs" make much better copy. Corruption and failure on the part of people and institutions upon whom/which the public must depend are highly interesting to the public - and dramatically adverse to the public interest. The story line which, for commercial reasons, appeals to Big Journalism - which Big Journalism wants to believe and to propagate - defines what interests the public, and is essentially the very opposite of what is in the public interest.

For those reasons Big journalism inherently tends to oppose the public interest. Big Journalism is selling something, and that thing is not what the public should buy, but what is promoted by a century and a half of unremitting propaganda as being good for it. And that is why we have so much difficulty disposing of the impostures of the socialist delusion - which is actually nothing more than the idea that Theodore Roosevelt was wrong in saying that it is not the critic but "the man who is actually in the arena" who counts. Socialism is all about censoring the credit which properly accrues to those who accomplish things like providing our fuel, medicine, food, and other goods. Socialism is about suppressing that credit in favor of the second guesser and the critic, and the imposture of those who, precisely on the basis that they have no experience in confronting the actual constraints of business, affect to be able to do those jobs better than those who actually take responsibility for doing so.

The Communist’s greatest trick is to convince people that they don’t really exist.

A Plan:

Conservatives should remove their children from government schools immediately. Encourage others to do the same.

Join with neighbors, friends and family to elect officials that will close down government schools. Permanently.

Organize private voucher foundations that would award private vouchers to students attending private **conservative** schools. The foundations could certify the schools and teachers, and administer testing to the students.

Abandon the brick and mortar, Prussian-style school! It is expensive. Also, with today's technology a student can receive a self-paced education that is far more efficient an thorough.

Send armies of youth onto our nation's college campuses who are well prepared to stare down their Marxist professors and to defend their faith and conservative principles.

Can this be done! You bet! A 5 Trillion dollar endowment at 5% interest could provide every school child in the nation ( approximate 50 million children) with a $5,000 private voucher. Please remember that Harvard alone has a $35 Billion dollar endowment, and colleges across the nation have endowments in the BILLIONS and multi-multi-millions. Five Trillion is less than 4 Harvards.

Finally, we should encourage our talk show Pumpkin Heads ( Rush, Hannity, and OReilly) to start calling the enemy who and what it is: Communist and communism.

If we start now, my children's blood will not need to water the Tree of Liberty.

You got some great ideas on how to start taking back education from the Collective of Mis-education, the COM.
Let’s get busy.

There are organizations, such as Exodus Mandate run by Bruce Shortt, that encourage Baptist churches to open private schools. In my opinion this is the wrong approach.

Churches are **not** going to rescue our children. Why? Answer: Because there are too many government employees sitting in the church pews. Few ministers will bite the hand the puts money in the collection plate. In many counties the government schools are the single biggest employer.

Conservatives ( Christian and non-Christian) will need to start a grassroots effort to organize the political action against the government schools and start the voucher foundations.
