Losing Our Democracy
American Thinker ^ | 22 Jun, 2022 | John Leonard

Posted on 06/22/2022 4:06:19 AM PDT by MtnClimber

Hillary Clinton just became the most recent Democrat to claim we’re “standing on the precipice of losing our democracy” and of all people, Hillary ought to know. After all, it was her minions and her campaign that undertook the most dedicated effort in U.S. history to undermine a political opponent with a “dirty tricks” campaign that deliberately misused government assets to make an unprecedented attack against a political opponent. Now, thanks to John Durham’s investigation, we know with certainty that Hillary’s campaign was behind the fake Alfa Bank scandal and the accusations of Trump being an agent of Russia all along, and that she personally authorized the seditious behavior. How do we know? Robby Mook testified to that fact in front of a jury while at risk of penalty for perjury.

Hillary is like the arsonist who puts a gasoline-soaked match to her own house and then complains when it catches fire. No single American citizen has done more damage to our federal government since Benedict Arnold, who tried to sell the defense plans of West Point to the British during the Revolutionary War. Her husband Bill debased the presidency by having sex with an intern in the Oval Office. Then he committed perjury on the witness stand and followed that by lying to the American people. No other human being in my lifetime has done more damage to the collective mental health of our nation.

She’s not just bad, or dumb -- no, Hillary is pure evil. Bill was stupid, and he got caught. Without Hillary covering for him and working feverishly behind the scenes to destroy Bill’s accusers, he would have been forced to resign. Hillary wasn’t just Bill’s wife; she was his accomplice and co-conspirator.

The entire left seems to worship evil.

As others have pointed out, she means something specific.

“Our democracy” means HER democracy. Her control of government. She and her friends own the US government, they control it and they manipulate elections as they see fit. It all belongs to them and they do not want to lose “their democracy”. So We The People need to be crushed because We are a threat to Them and their democracy.

She is right at once.
If we left people like her in power, we will surely loose our democracy!

I KNEW that the “trial” of Sussman would turn out to be useful.

So that articles like this could be written without impunity because the testimony was given UNDER OATH.

Live with that, Hillary.

1) When leftists refer to “Our Democracy”, they mean “Their Democracy”. Of course it isn’t democracy at all, but hegemonic totalitarian control by the Left under the auspices of the Democrat political machine.

2) It is a mistake to think the “the left” refers only to the Democrat party. It includes all the Republicans who carry water for them, whether we call them RINO’s, GOP-e, Deep-Staters, or what have you, and virtually all of the media.

The constant referral to “democracy” by the media is suspect. Makes a good talking point.... but they don’t mean it the way we do.

The fact that Hillary gets away with everything she does ought to be a clue to how far gone our “Republic” is. We fool ourselves if we think we can turn it back. Elections are but a show anymore. The media is a propaganda weapon.
Almost all of the “Conservatives” I voted for, in time, showed their true colors....like Portman, McConnell....the Bushes.

Empires fail in time....they always do. I grew up in great times, and am now watching it crumble.

It’s the professional political class. The self-appointed elites. Masters of the Universe.

They are puppet actors doing the bidding of those who really rule.

“The vote” is a ritual designed to support the myth that the government works for the public.

The gpovernment works for the public the same way a rancher works for his cattle.

You are correct that the term “our democracy” means something specific, the use of the possessive case first person plural pronoun indicates something which belongs to a group, which raises the question, “to what group does this refer?”

Surely not to deplorables. Nor to dirt people. Nor to insurrectionists. To listen to some of the more forthcoming members of the January 6 “committee”, not even to Republicans.

As George Carlin memorably said, “It’s a big club, and you ain’t in it”.

THEIR democracy is an evil control mechanism from the pits of Hell. Never forget it.

WE (MAGA) are NOT INCLUDED in “OUR DEMOCRACY” because when the say “OUR DEMOCRACY” they mean it belongs to them, not us.

A good way to lose bad democracy would be to repeal the 17th amendment.

Democrats rely on the product of the “Father of Lies”. Pretty reliable, effective, and it makes about 49% of the public feel good about themselves.

God help us.

The Democrats and the Clintons are very good at using words that if you don’t listen real close, you miss the message they are giving. Whenever I hear a Democrat talking, I listen closely to hear what they are really saying. It’s never what you think they are saying.

When one political party can manipulate national elections, we’ve already lost the democracy part of our constitutional government.

When they start yapping about “democracy” it’s a sign they are about to unveil a particularly breathtaking attack of liberty.

What I have read on these pages before sure seems to hold true....that being that whatever we are being accused of by the Democrats is likely just exactly what they are doing....not an exact quote.
