D’Souza’s dire warning: Americans ‘are being prepared for a political and financial shakedown’
The Blaze ^ | June 5th, 2014 | Benjamin Weingarten

.......................................................

In moving from the 1776 ethos to that of 1968, you speak to Saul Alinsky’s playbook. And one of the things you say, and something that I hadn’t seen elsewhere, is that Saul Alinsky’s “Rules for Radicals” effectively are derived from the same playbook as that of the devil, which kind of explains why he dedicated “Rules for Radicals” to Satan. Can you expound upon that?

DeSouza:

Well, something strange is going on here because Alinsky was obviously not a Christian; in fact, he was an atheist. So why would an atheist dedicate a book to Lucifer? I think to discover the answer, you have to pay careful attention to what Lucifer represents in the Western tradition. So I did a close reading of Milton’s “Paradise Lost,” and you begin to see how Lucifer operates. First of all, Lucifer is a master of organizing resentment, and so is Alinsky. Lucifer is also a master at making G-d the bad guy. So even though Lucifer rebels against G-d, even though G-d justly expels Lucifer from Heaven, Lucifer goes, “G-d, you’re a tyrant. I don’t have to follow you. I want my own kingdom.” So Lucifer practices, you may say, demonization against G-d. And finally, Lucifer is a liar. He is a master of dishonesty and deceit.

Now, Alinsky adopted these Luciferian techniques, and so, for example, Alinsky openly advocates deceit. He tells the radicals of the ‘60s, “You know you people are middle class, but you hate the middle class, you hate middle class values, and that’s very good. But what you should do is pretend to be a friend of the middle class, pass yourself off as middle class, and use your position in the middle class to rub raw the sores of discontent. Try to radicalize the middle class by feigning or pretending to share their values.” And I think here, we begin to see the Obama and even the Hillary playbook, which is to say the ways in which Hillary and Obama both started out as Bohemians or Hippies, and then quickly adopted the Alinsky-ite approach of as Alinsky says “dressing square:” Seeming very respectable, being very self-disciplined, and ultimately pretending to be a friend of the middle class, whose values you are trying to undermine............................

Well he has been shaken down and violated campaign finance laws, If one is conservative and an effective commentator, one has to be squeeky clean, which he is not, But his writing is interesting, an historical perspective.

Not again! I thought that's what happened in 2008 and never stopped.

Nope....not at all.

Did you grow up in the pre-leftist destroyed Detroit? That would’ve been a fascinating time to be in Motor City.

Yes, I was born and raised downriver from Detroit - my dad worked at a chemical factory that was bought out by BASF and then bulldozed to the ground - once my mom went back to teaching, we had a new car every two or three years just to help the “economy.” It was fantastic - all the cars were so cool and different and big and fast and no seat belts!!!! Those were the days...

That’s six years they’ve had to screw up the economy and shovel money overseas to where you’ll never find it. By 2016 how many cities will be bankrupt? How many more people on some form of government benefit? If it’s 40% now, what will it be like in another two years?
You’ll need a health tax a wealth tax a death tax and a tax to breathe...
While the infrastructure rusts and topples. And the bureaucrats forget to order the toilet paper...
Welcome to the United Socialist States of America, all 57 of them.

Now don’t you dare refuse to bake a cake for a homosexual wedding:

the fracking revolution is preventing the financial meltdown.

But the political moral and spiritual disintegration of this country continues apace.

This is brilliant. No wonder Obama HAD to take D’Souza down.

I am watching the stock market closely. Its quite volatile. The Dow gained 99 points in one day this week. Thats a lot, but people have become insensitive to it.

The markets will signal the fall, and then the reserve currency of the world will be Chinese.

The middle class will no more be affluent, and Obama will have achieved his sordid Alinsky goal.We will then be a completely socialist nation, disempowered and weak.

We need rid of him.
