Hate in Politics Today Goes Beyond Anything This Nation Has Ever Experienced
CNS News ^ | 28AUG18 | Charlie Daniels

Charlie Daniels

To anybody who will admit the truth, the animosity and downright hate that exists in the political arena goes way past anything this nation has ever experienced before. The vitriol has grown to the point that party power comes before patriotism for many of these jaded partisans, to the point they will fight tooth and nail to defeat things that would be beneficial for the country just because it’s the opposing party’s idea. 

They’d literally rather do harm to the people they are sworn to serve than lose any political ground. They develop hyperbolic phrases, “tax cuts for the rich, throw Grandma off the cliff” resorting to kindergarten claptrap, trying to inflate the situation into dire warnings of impending doom to intimidate and terrify the electorate.

The Internal Revenue Service, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Justice Department have all been politicized, federal officials have been granted sweeping powers which is reminiscent of the motto of Lavrentiy Beria, head of Russian secret police under Joseph Stalin, “Show me the man and I’ll show you the crime.”

We have two standards of justice in America now, as one side is being exposed to the most painstaking, needle in a haystack scrutiny, while the other side is being ignored, even exonerated, while anybody with enough gray matter to walk through a door without bumping his head knows that there’s way too much smoke in the Hillary camp not to be some fire somewhere.

The politicians who defend open borders, at least in my opinion, couldn’t care less about the illegals they so gallantly defend. They just look at them as future voters. Their ideas are so far afield, they can’t win in that arena, so the coordinated complaints against a wall that would go a long way toward preventing illegal border crossing of people, drugs, and no telling what else, is nothing more than importing a loyal political base.

All the passionate appeals from the Democrats about “separating children from their parents” is shouted from the rooftops by people who care not a whit about the millions of unborn children separated from their mother’s womb and from a chance at breathing every year.

If Donald Trump is guilty of treason, collusion with our enemies or any other offense that is detrimental to this nation, I want him tried for it.

Conversely, how can paying a foreign intelligence agent for a dossier filled with cloudy, unverified information, using it and laying the groundwork for the FISA court warrant to mount surveillance on American citizens not be worthy of further investigation?

And how can destroying thousands of documents that have been subpoenaed by Congress not be a crime?

 

And why has a former CIA Director – who was actually caught on television lying to a congressional committee – not been prosecuted?

Why has the Russian acquisition of America’s uranium under Obama-Clinton not been thoroughly investigated?

And why has Obama’s blocking of the records of Holder’s part in the Fast and Furious debacle not been unsealed?

Andrew America “was never that great” Cuomo, Obama, Hillary Clinton and the preponderance of the progressive elite are globalists. They think America needs to be overhauled, our wealth passed around and our military power blunted.

Before Trump, America, along with practically every other industrialized nation on earth was merrily tripping down the primrose path to globalism. Hillary’s election was to be the lynchpin, the long-awaited consolidation of power, the open borders and legalization of millions of illegal immigrant voters, the appointment of Supreme Court judges that would take care of any little details, that for one reason or another should fall through the legislative cracks.

The cock assuredness of a landslide Hillary victory made some people careless to the point that they left some loose ends, made some glaring mistakes, but never mind, when Hillary got in, there were no worries, everything would be buried so deep it would never be found.

Along comes brash, outspoken, abrasive, unafraid Donald Trump, and the corks went back in the champagne bottles, the balloons were not released, and the strategy hurriedly went from celebration to CYA and bring down this president before he can get the economy hopping, build up the military, move the American Embassy to Jerusalem, banish silly business-killing regulations and attract businesses back to American shores.

The proverbial square peg had inserted itself into the round hole, demanding that we put America first and threw a monkey wrench into globalist aspirations for the foreseeable future.

The resurgence of American manufacturing businesses, tax cuts, fewer regulations, a strong military and an “America First” attitude does not foster globalism.

Being a Bible-believing Christian, I hate globalism with a passion.

Globalism is the kingdom of the antichrist, and it happens when the nations of the world hand their sovereignty and power over to a person, masquerading as an angel of light, who seems to have all the answers to the world’s problems, but is actually the embodiment of evil.

That is the ultimate act of mankind putting their trust in other men rather than Almighty God.

That’s when the term “hell to pay” becomes a reality.

What do you think?

Pray for our troops, our police and the peace of Jerusalem.

God Bless America

When did a congressman nearly cane another one to death on the floor of the House?

Demonicrat hate, including their murderous hate against infants in the womb, is supported and encouraged by Demonicrat treason and the fifth-column leftist media.

Yes the Democrats are hateful, but I have to think that civil war was worse.

Charlie, there was this little stretch in the early 1860s . . .

“Hate 101” is a required course taught in college campuses across the country.

“I am guessing Charlie doesn’t know much about Hamilton and Madison.”...…………

Why don’t you test him to see what he DOES know, I’m betting he could hold his own in such a debate. Just because he is from the south does not mean he is not learned in history of this country. Just saying……..

The only difference between now and past political eras is technology makes it easier for more people to vent their spleen publicly.

Mr. Lincoln was often treated as badly as Mr. Trump, called a backwoods, ignorant savage who did not understand how things worked in Washington.

Former Vice President Aaron Burr did the country a service in a little spat with Alexander Hamilton.

I agree that we are probably no QUITE to that level of hatred BUT it is closing in on us. The current incivility is becoming very blatant, with most coming from the LEFT.

The incident you are referring to is the premeditated attack on Senator Charles Sumner (R-MA) on a close to empty US Senate chamber, by a trio of intruding Southern Democrat Representatives, the attacker, Rep. Preston Brooks (D-SC), and his colleagues, Rep. Laurence Keitt (D-SC) & Rep. Henry Edmundson (D-VA). Brooks' weapon was a thick gutta-percha cane and he attacked a sitting Sumner without any declaration or chance for defense. His fellow thugs threatened others who responded to the noisy attack with their own canes and a pistol.

This all occurred on 22 May 1856 during the "Bleeding Kansas" crisis following the 1854 Kansas–Nebraska Act. The South was determined to maintain power by having Kansas come in as a slave state if at all possible. Senator Smner was a leader of the opposition to that effort.

With all due respect, you may have me confused with someone who is concerned with Daniels' knowledge of history. More simply put, this level of political acrimony is nothing new and Charlie is wrong.

Thanks for adding the crime/corruption topic. Shirley applies here. Problem is that 96% of the hate Charlie mentions comes from folks who are mentally diseased.

Death seems a pretty efficient way to shut them up.

“Globalism is the kingdom of the antichrist”

Probably the best sentence I will read all day.

Charlie is right.

The level of hate that progressive communists have for patriotic United States citizens has been elevated by academia to the point that they believe patriotism should be punished.

Talking about disputes that erupted into physical altercations on the floor of government meeetings is not the same as the pure hatred that progresssives are willing to spew out at the drop of a hat towards what was acceptable to both sides just a few decades ago.

If you cannot sense the current of hatred flowing below the surface of public discussion concerning politics I envy your naivety.
