Let's Remember Who The Real Enemy Is: The Clinton-Sanders Left
PJ Media ^ | 01-30-2016 | Michael van der Galien

Posted on 01/30/2016 11:32:42 AM PST by Michael van der Galien

Is this a great primary season or what? Seldom before has the debate among Republicans -- and even among conservatives -- been so heated. Donald Trump has his die-hard fans, Trumpkins. Other conservatives are solidly behind Ted Cruz because many believe he is the most conservative candidate running. Others prefer Marco Rubio, mostly because they think he's the most electable of the relatively conservative candidates.

Not only are these candidates having a go at each other -- with Trump leading the field by going nuclear on anyone who threatens his frontrunner status -- but their supporters do the same.

To a degree, that's good and important. After all, conservatives are now trying to reach a consensus about who will represent them in the elections. This entire political game -- the debates, the constant attacks -- is all part of the vetting process. Although it's sometimes infuriating to people who have already made up their minds, it's nonetheless important that we go through this phase. May the best man win: it'll end up in conservatives having the strongest possible candidate after the Republican convention. That's a good thing.

On the other hand, with all the passions flying, I'm afraid that some of us are forgetting who the real enemy is. Yes, I think Trump would be a horrible candidate, and I believe he's a liar. Although I respect Rubio, I have a problem with him because he's too hungry for military adventures in the Middle East which always end up destabilizing the entire region, and because he's simply pro-amnesty.

But, when it all boils down to it, neither Rubio nor even Trump is the real enemy: the left is. And the Left is currently represented by President Obama, Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders.

The One is a stealth progressive. It appears to me to only be his followers that are willing to stand with and trash all who do not kiss his butt.
The One and his followers are wrecking the right and gleefully so. They are doing the democrats work for them.

The REAL enemy is the $4 trillion mostly unconstitutional federal government and the unwillingness of the states and the American people to force the feds back into their constitutional cage.

The Clintons, Sanders, and Obama of this world are simply opportunists, like the whore, riding on the beast of the outlaw government. The beast is the problem. The whore would have nothing to ride on if the beast were cut to size and caged.

Another clueless article. “Conservatism” is some sort of 20th century mantra I guess.

Question: When can we talk about AMERICANISM?

Answer: Trump.

Nailed it. If people around here kept their focus on the real enemy we wouldn't have all of the schoolyard exchanges so prevalent lately.

The Democrats are not the enemy. The Republicans are not the enemy. The establishment is the enemy. We need more “you are either for We the People or you are against them”. No more lies, backroom deals, padding your accounts with shady deals, or “compromises”. WE matter, and let anything else take a back seat.

They very much are the enemy. One way or another, they’re going to have to be dealt with.

HELLO?.....that can't be true...everyone knows that the real bad people are always the pubs, somehow, someway, and its never the clintoons,bammas, sanders and Pelosi cabal...

so here's an idea...lets spend months and years denigrating every single pub candidate so we can hand the election to the rats, again...

Yeah. Let’s all get along. Let’s not bicker and argue over who killed who or insulted who while running up their own boy.

I agree with you if by “We the People” you are referring to the United States of America.

This stance will automatically rule out progressivism, socialism, global warmism, open borders (FOX/Murdoch), Islamism and any other evil plot of the globalists.

The problem with immediately shrinking government is that we need to build a wall and enforce the borders including deportation. We need to defend our oil in the Middle East as well as our few staunch allies like Israel. We need to shore up America’s infrastructure and get ready for an explosion of growth in our economy after globalist trade policies are killed. And we need to be ready to deal with Islam, Iran and China to start with, even as our natural European allies are caving in, allowing their cultures to be overrun.

Boy you got that right. How easily distracted we are. Who’s behind that? I have my answer:

“Lucifer..which weakens the nations” (Isaiah 14:12; “the great dragon...that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceives the whole world” (Rev 12:9) and “the deceiver of the nations” (Rev 20:3).

The battle for America is really a spiritual battle. Satan hates people and nations but especially America because it has been a light of God’s truth to the whole world. We are in the good fight of faith.
