Sidney Blumenthal once wrote an article about what Hillary and Bill Clinton stood for politically. It was during the impeachment and there was really nothing good coming out of the White House. The article appeared in the Seattle Times. Blumenthal said that they stood for the new world order, which would create a new world society, that organized everything equally, that it would even create a new religion, a religion which no one could object to and would offend no one.

I wish that this article could be accessed, but it was pulled immediately and only ever appeared in the print version of the news paper. The article was very long, it filled several full pages of the Seattle Times. I am so sorry that I didn’t save it, but it never occurred to me that they would pull the on-line version.

I remember hearing Hillary herself say that a society needs to have common values, and it’s the job of the government to provide them.

Rep Harley is late to the game. This article from right after the 2016 win, summarizes it nicely:

Liberals have always accused social conservatives of bringing religion into politics, but liberals have done something far worse, and far more radical: They have made politics their religion...What they really want is liberal Sharia law, a secular theocracy.

The minimum wage, gender equality, nationalized health care, and global warming—whatever their practical virtues—are not just expedient policy prescriptions. They are essential aspects of the liberal fatwa. Feminism, deconstruction, and gender theory are not just academic abstractions up for discussion among liberal academics: They are articles of their religious creed. Question them and you are not just wrong—you are a heretic.

You wonder why the left is having a nervous breakdown in the wake of Trump's election? It is because, for them, politics is the means to secular salvation. This means that, to them, political failure is not just a setback on the road to a more stable society—it is a blow to their very worldview. Opposition to their program is not just wrong-headed, but evil.

This is why all of the excesses of these demonstrations—death threats, looting, violence—can be excused by CNN and MSNBC: They are the necessary extreme measures, justified in light of the threat to their ideology.

“I am so sorry that I didn’t save it, but it never occurred to me that they would pull the on-line version.”

You have to count on every article that is detrimental or damaging to the left in any way being scrubbed and pulled. I print everything to .pdf and save it for “posterity”. Been doing that for years.

The Episcopal Church?
