The writer is on to something though, the use of the socialist lexicon is a dead give away to a person's or organization's political bent.
One only need consider the term, Hegemony.
Ever see it used to describe Communist or socialist society?
Once you understand the connection between lexicon and political/ideology, the ability to identify a politian/reporter etc into their true position becomes simple.
It's called triangulation- which means lying politicians lying to the public, which is mainly 80% dumber than a rock.
Rather than being controlled by a central committee, I believe these issues take on an ideology all their own and mutant into an out-of-control issue -- just like the demonization of SUVs, cigarettes and fast food.
Because, Americans today are products of decades of a deficient public education, they really don't know HOW to think.
My 12-y-o daughter came home from school this week, said she decided she was a liberal.
Talk about a serious issue. Anyway, I asked her why -- and we started discussing lots of different viewpoints regarding issues that were on her mind. I was encouraging her to think for herself, to examine issues from multiple aspects.
After a while, you could almost see the mush draining out of her little head - sort of like watching an exorcism.
The trouble with this article is that for the average American, it just requires way too much thought, too intellectual for us. It just hurts our heads to think about these things.
They heard Kerry's soundbite that 43 million Americans are without healthcare, and that's what's on their minds. They have no idea what ideology they believe, nor why. They have no idea how to even begin to examine the issue, where to go for information or what the answer ought to be.
In summary, we've just become too stupid (and I don't exclude myself) to be good, responsible citizens when it comes to the broader issues of preserving our constitution, our country, our culture and our future.
If the ruling elite seemed to be comprised of an opportunistically socialist right and an ideologically socialist left and they all came together at meetings of some foriegn policy organization which was founded by a notorious Marxist, that could be a possible explanation.
We are still the greatest nation in the world!
It's not like we are synonymous with The Roman Empire or the like.
After all, The Roman Empire fell.
Ann Coulter recently spoke about Joseph McCarthy and called him an American patriot and prophet who was way ahead of his time. Mr. McCarthy recognized Communist infiltration into our society and political system and the danger this posed to the future of the U.S. He was demonized and discredited. Why? Because he was exposing Communism in America. To those who believe that the threat of Communism disovled with the breakup of the United Soviet Socialist Republic, that is what they want you to believe. Communism is alive and well IN AMERICA TODAY.
Our universities have been taken over by Social Elites (Communists). They are endoctrinating the future leaders of this country with their propaganda and Socialist philosophy. They are rewriting our history and teaching theories and fiction as fact. What better way is there to insure the future of this movement?
Our Judicial system has been compromised by Liberal Activist - (Communist) judges who usurp the authority of legislature by arbitrarily making law from the bench. The foundation of our Judicial system is based on the principles contained in the Ten Commandments. It is not a coincidence that these principles and all representations of them are being systematically removed from public places. Anyone who opposes this movement is branded as a radical extremist.
The mainstream news media is operated and controlled by Socialists and has evolved into nothing more than a propaganda machine. Their brazenly biased coverage assures that every news item that is diseminated is filtered, carefully spun, and slanted to espouse their views and to discredit all opposition. They use sensationalism and smear tactics to attract and maintain an audience and support their propaganda with an endless parade of so called "experts".
The nation is just about evenly divided at this point in time. Not Since The Civil War Has Our Nation Stood So Divided Remember the 2000 election? How close are they to tipping the scales? Today it is within their grasp to seize control and my concern is, that too many unsuspecting Americans are going to awaken only to discover that it is too late.
Communism is still with us in a BIG way. It's roots are deeply embedded in virtually every aspect of American society. The terminology has changed but the basic philosophy remains the same.
Communism = Socialism = Marxism = Liberalism = Naturalism = Enviornmentalism = Darwinism = Existentialism = Utopianism
How has it come to this? Have Americans had enough of this nonsense? Is it too late for America?
"When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them.... We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it...it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. ... For the support of this declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of the Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other, our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor." --Declaration of Independence.
"The time is now, my fellow Americans, to recapture our destiny, to take it into our own hands." --Ronald Reagan
