The Hillary-Alinsky-Lucifer Connection

The devil is in her details. In his speech at the Republican convention last week, Ben Carson made a statement that raised some eyebrows. “Now, one of the things that I have learned about Hillary Clinton is that one of her heroes, her mentors, was Saul Alinsky,” said Carson. “And her senior thesis was about Saul Alinsky. This was someone she greatly admired….”

So far so good. Nothing most political junkies haven’t heard before.

“And let me tell you something about Saul Alinsky,” continued Carson. “He wrote a book called Rules for Radicals. It acknowledges Lucifer, the original radical who gained his own kingdom. Now think about that.”

That certainly got a lot of people thinking.

“This is our nation where our founding document, the Declaration of Independence, talks about certain inalienable rights that come from our Creator, a nation where our Pledge of Allegiance says we are ‘One nation under God,’” added Carson. “This is a nation where every coin in our pockets and every bill in our wallet says, ‘In God We Trust.’ So are we willing to elect someone as president who has as their role model somebody who acknowledges Lucifer? Think about that.”

In response, the liberal media predictably went bonkers.

“Ben Carson rails against Hillary Clinton, Lucifer,” howled the headline in USA Today.

“Ben Carson Ties Hillary Clinton to Lucifer as GOP Swaps Campaign for Witch Trial,” scowled the Daily Beast.

“She’s one-degree of separation from a devil-lover!” wailed the Daily Mail.

Clearly the left pushes for evil.

[Robert A Cook PE]

Ain’t no one-degree of separation from Lucifer about it ....

[longfellow]

Libs hate the truth and freak out at the mention of God. They are the devil.

[bigbob]

I feel bad for Alinsky for being lumped in with such company.

You can tell the tree by its fruits. We can see chaos, disorder, despair and infanticide rotting on the ground underneath these branches.

Lucifer was the father of lies. Hillary has shown that she is he daughter of lies. No, no, I don’t see any link here./s

Alinsky, for one, was asked about the Lucifer acknowledgment in his March 1972 interview with Playboy magazine near the end of his life, a swan-song that every Alinsky aficionado knows about. Here’s the exchange, which came at the very end of the interview, with Playboy apparently judging it a fittingly provocative close to the extremely lengthy interview:

PLAYBOY: Having accepted your own mortality, do you believe in any kind of afterlife?

ALINSKY: Sometimes it seems to me that the question people should ask is not “Is there life after death?” but “Is there life after birth?” I don’t know whether there’s anything after this or not. I haven’t seen the evidence one way or the other and I don’t think anybody else has either. But I do know that man’s obsession with the question comes out of his stubborn refusal to face up to his own mortality. Let’s say that if there is an afterlife, and I have anything to say about it, I will unreservedly choose to go to hell.

PLAYBOY: Why?

ALINSKY: Hell would be heaven for me. All my life I’ve been with the have-nots. Over here, if you’re a have-not, you’re short of dough. If you’re a have-not in hell, you’re short of virtue. Once I get into hell, I’ll start organizing the have-nots over there.

PLAYBOY: Why them?

ALINSKY: They’re my kind of people.

John 8:44 (KJV) -

Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

Genesis 3:4-5 (KJV) -

And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:
For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.

Yes, in reality, Alinsky was just a petty thief and con man.

Democrats are pure evil

[T-Bone Texan]

Hillary and the Prince of Darkness, somehow linked?

A haiku:

Not saying they're friends
But every year at Christmas
Hill sends him a card

Which is funny because even though the Prince of Lies does not celebrate the birth of Christ, I'm sure he gets a warm fuzzy knowing his minion is thinking about him.

From the article:

Following the Irene page is another page, the controversial one, in which Alinsky offers three quotes, the first from a Rabbi Hillel, the second from Thomas Paine, and the third from Alinsky himself, giving his nod to Lucifer. One well-known fact-checker source (Snopes) describes this as “three epigraphs on an introductory page.” I suppose that’s an acceptable way to characterize it. And the third of the three is an “epigraph” (if you will) to Satan.

I knew generally the definition of an epigraph but decided to look it up. Our liberal friends at Wikipedia say,

In literature, an epigraph is a phrase, quotation, or poem that is set at the beginning of a document or component. The epigraph may serve as a preface, as a summary, as a counter-example, or to link the work to a wider literary canon, either to invite comparison or to enlist a conventional context.

IMHO, saying Alinsky composed a epigraph to Lucifer is hardly complementary but also very truthful :)

[reviled downesdad]

Progressive liberal democrats are evil.
There are still some conservative democrats that vote their conscience.

[jospehm20]

I have not seen any conservative democrats on display the past couple of nights. Any conservative who is still a democrat after watching the first two nights of the DNC is obviously in denial or stupid.

Very very sad.
