Hillary and her ‘Third Way’ politics

What’s all this business about social justice and “The Third Way”?

For some time, the far left has been trumpeting the virtues of a so-called progressive (read: socialist) alternative to the worn-out dogmas of traditional liberalism and conservatism.

What they mean is that old-school liberalism is reinventing itself under new labels, calling it “The Third Way” or “social justice” in an attempt to shuck off history’s condemnation. And Hillary Clinton is smack dab in the thick of it. The Progressive Policy Institute pushes “third way” theory in America by saying:

Government should promote equality;
Government should empower citizens to act for themselves;
Education and technological innovation are the proper approaches to economic security, not laissez faire or free market action;
Values should embrace tolerance and honor traditional values while refusing attempts to impose them on others and be judgmental; Third-way adherents work to build inclusive, multiethnic societies.

Any of that sound familiar? You’d be right to suspect that all these warm euphemisms cloak a darker agenda. Let’s consider some facts.

After being tossed into history’s trash bin, socialists and communists around the world had to choose a new face, new names and creative wordsmithing when it became apparent to reasonable minds the world over that socialism and communism don’t work. Third-way adherents heralded the shift of political leftists like Clinton, who is publicly moderate only because she has learned she must disguise her real agenda and her deeper, socialist convictions since she cannot sell them anymore to most voters.

The old leftists, turned down by history and human nature and forced to concede that capitalism works, have needed a way to govern capitalism, regulate it, bend it and bleed it a la George Soros for the money needed to continue the welfare state. So leftists developed new names and approaches for old programs to cobble together political majorities. Third-Way and social justice lingo was developed as the doublespeak they needed to resume power, without resorting to tired, old socialist themes. The favorite doublespeak of third-way devotees — “hope,” “change” and “new” – is now commonplace.

This is a case of ugly history repeating itself, or more aptly put, perpetuating itself. The modern third-way philosophy — whose goal is “social justice” — rose to influence in the 1930s under the Nazis, in the form of unrelenting, murderous central power. In the same era, Trotskyists used the third-way language to describe their brand of Marxism. And during the 1960s, New Leftists adopted the lingo to define their socialism.

These movements gained steam by exercising the First Principle of the Third-Way politician: to studiously determine what they must do to obtain and keep power. All other considerations, moral or otherwise, play second-fiddle to this prime maxim to do whatever you need to do, say whatever you need to say, including lies, to gain power and never lose it.

Third-Way politicians like Clinton have buried just enough of their old ideology to plant their flag to the right of the far left, which is where they determined they could muster enough votes to win power and govern. Third-Way politicians, including Bill Clinton and Barack Obama, became masters at using the wealth created by conservative policies to publicly channel market forces to build the welfare state.

The idealists who serve Hillary Clinton, including feminists, socialists and progressives, do so for “higher ends”, and with an ambition that justifies sordid and perhaps criminal means. Their passionate motive is the continuance of themselves, to keep their twisted ideology alive and thriving. They hate conservatives because we thwart their causes, kill their dreams, defend the Constitution, and believe in property rights as the cornerstone of freedom and prosperity.

Ordinary citizens, here and abroad, need to wake up and realize that third-way leftists are flying a false flag, and supporters like Clinton remain socialists at heart, waiting for the right time and place to reinstate central planning, the advanced welfare state, massive government and their true ideology.

KEYWORDS:
It is appalling how many young women and young men and academicians think this woman, Hillary Clinton, cares a whit about them or their issues ; Ms. Clinton is all about power and wealth...however she can get either. A woman like Ms. Clinton would not have been allowed to run for any office just a few years ago, let alone for the POTUS, she lacks the quality and qualifications for that office....Obama could not have won were he not 1/2 Negro....should Ms.Clinton (GF) win, America will finally complete her fall from Grace and become a Third nay Fourth World Country.

Our Law Schools are partly to blame, they teach Social Justice rather than Law that demands real JUSTICE. The voice heard today is Progressive Socialism and only one side is allowed at most Universities and Colleges....Hillsdale College sadly and wrongly in a free society, is one of a few where a real education can be realized from open minded Professors, not the closed minded robots in colleges & universities today....their way or the highway....Progressive Socialists....which is what Hillary is.

The last sentence in the article.... Ordinary citizens, here and abroad, need to wake up and realize that third-way leftists are flying a false flag, and supporters like Clinton remain socialists at heart, waiting for the right time and place to reinstate central planning, the advanced welfare state, massive government and their true ideology.

“Third Way” as labels go no doubt polled well because of all the people registering as Independents.

LOL

Shoulda, woulda, coulda.

The progressives/Liberals never want citizens to feel empowered enough to act for themselves. NEVER! Because, then, they would not need government to take care of them.

Hillary's screechy voice is irritating as heck. Her new, handler approved, slow and modulated voice is even worse.

The Labor party under Tony Blair in Britain pushed this garbage. You see the results of it now.

I wonder whether they asked the focus group how condescending her new voice sounds?

She sounds as if she is trying to explain something to 4-year-olds. Maybe that is the level of her listeners.

Third way? Triangulating somewhere between Hitler and Lenin?

Drunk again! She was thinking, ‘Three Way’ and she accidentally said, ‘Third Way.’

How I loathe this woman. Just stroke out already!

Preparing for the Second Empire

In the flurry of scandalous details that have come forth in the past several months relating to the Clinton Foundation, one critical angle on the story has largely been ignored: the links between the Clintons and the Muslim Brotherhood.

Hillary Clinton was, after all, Secretary of State during the Arab Spring.

Among the avalanche of shady and undisclosed donations to the Clinton Foundation were many from the Middle East, and a significant donation from the State of Qatar. This small Gulf state is the home to the Muslim Brotherhood’s spiritual leader, Yusuf al-Qaradawi, and is the most prolific financial sponsor or terror in the region.
•In 2013, the Clinton Foundation reported donations by the Qatari government of between $1 – $5 million.
•Also in 2013, the Clinton Foundation partnered with the Qatari state-owned telecom company Ooredoo for market research in Myanmar. As they state in the press release, the program will help “offer critical insights into the socio-economic benefits of greater inclusion of women in the telecommunications sector.” (Question: Does this strike you as a pay-to-play arrangement?)
•The cesspool of corruption, FIFA, involves the Muslim Brotherhood and the Clintons. Qatar is scheduled to host the World Cup in 2022. To build the huge number of stadiums required for the event, the Qataris have hired Albert Speer Jr., the son of Hitler’s architect and personal friend, Albert Speer. Construction is underway with imported slave labor.
•The Clintons accepted donations from FIFA, which last month had several officials indicted by the FBI. They also hosted Qatari officials on stage at a Clinton Global Initiative event, which was sponsored by the Qatar 2022 Supreme Committee.

Personally, the ties between the Clintons and the Muslim Brotherhood couldn’t be closer. Huma Abedin has been Hillary’s aide for many years, and her relationship with the Clintons goes back to when Bill and Hillary were in the White House. So close is she to the Clinton family that they have referred to her as their “surrogate” daughter. Huma’s parents have a long and documented history with Islamic dawa organizations (i.e., organizations that advance sharia law worldwide), and Huma was part of the (Muslim Brotherhood-founded) Muslim Students Association at George Washington University.

Clintons Compromise the Nuclear Submarine Fleet: The Case of Gulftainer

Since the release of Peter Schweitzer’s book Clinton Cash, which have been greatly bolstered by the deep and ongoing financial investigation by Charles Ortel, the sensible public understands that the Clintons have no scruples, in accounting or life. For money, the couple will do anything, including sell out the country.

Now the Clintons’ fingerprints have been found on a deal to lease one of the most sensitive national ports to an Arab shipping company with ties to Iranian-backed terrorism.

Gulftainer, a shipping company based out of the United Arab Emirates, obtained a 35 year lease to operate Port Canaveral. Because the deal is based on a lease (i.e., not outright ownership), it received no national security review.
•Port Canaveral is home to NASA, a nuclear submarine base, Patrick Air Force Base, and numerous other national security installations!
•The deal was rubberstamped by Treasury Secretary, Jacob Lew, a Clinton family friend.
•Gulftainer was implicated by Iraqi officials in delivering weapons to Iranian-backed terrorists in Iraq (specifically the Badr Brigade, which is responsible for the deaths of many American soldiers).

The same week that details began to emerge on Gulftainer’s operating proximity to NASA, the United Arab Emirates announced a new space program. Obama had given NASA instructions to make Muslims “feel good” about accomplishments.

Ask yourself: Could all this be cosmic coincidence?

Hillary would be Obama’s the Muslim Brotherhood’s Third and Fourth term

Secretary of State Clinton was a leading American voice in the Arab Spring. When it came to Libya, now the base of operations for ISIS and the major destabilizing area in Northern Africa, Hillary was the decisive voice. It was her State Department which ushered Libyan weapons to Syrian terrorists, resulting in the deaths of Americans in Benghazi, and likely many more we don’t know the names of.

As the above sketch of the Gulftainer affair makes clear, the Clintons are at best utterly reckless, and at worst flat-out traitors. If the public considers the Clintons patriotic Americans, fit to lead the country yet again, they might as well dig up Julius and Ethel Rosenberg and give them Presidential Medals of Freedom.

Regrettably, the Clintons’ behavior is not aberrant in the age of Obama. It is consistent with the actions of the current administration, which has steadfastly done the bidding of the Muslim Brotherhood, both at home and abroad.

PSD-11, the official document that established this devilish alliance, is the merely the paperwork. We now live in the country, and the world, that PSD-11 helped to create.
