I have to admit; Alinsky offers food for thought:
"Saul Alinsky's rules of power tactics, excerpted from his 1971 book "Rules for Radicals: A Practical Primer for Realistic Radicals"
1. Power is not only what you have but what the enemy thinks you have.
2. Never go outside the experience of your people.
3. Whenever possible go outside the experience of the enemy.
4. Make the enemy live up to their own book of rules.
5. Ridicule is man's most potent weapon.
6. A good tactic is one that your people enjoy.
7. A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag.
8. Keep the pressure on.
9. The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself.
10. Maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition.
11. If you push a negative hard and deep enough it will break through into its counterside.
12. The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative.
13. Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it."
You can see that some of the democrat's most annoying tactics come straight from Alinsky. They are annoying because they are disingenuous, they are drawn from the philosophy that the ends are everything and anything that facilitates advancement toward the goal is good.
Hillary can be beat like an omelet using nothing more than her nationalized health care debacle.
This is not Alynski's work, this is military guerrilla tactic fed by the Soviet Union through the like of Alynski.
Hey! Stop that!
Every Conservative should memorize these rules. Noise promotes, silence is agreement.
In actuality, those quotes sound like what I'd read in my local Chinese restaurant's fortune cookies.
