FR is a nation of fools..

Though they are the highest of fools they fail to recognize that we too will fall under our own weight, given enough time.

The bee buzzing you hear is just a side effect.

Good job of posting.

Do you think the symbol of the hive could also apply to the Catholic Church and its leftist drift of the last thirty years?

(I ask because you sent this to the Catholic ping list).

Unfortunately, the hive affects the deepest aspects of American way of life. As you see, things are not exactly the same anymore. People like you and me are in the minority. The hive does not brainwash us, but for most Americans we can see the effects including lack of morals, collapse of American family, and other ills in soceity.

You can see, there are liberal priests in the Catholic Church, yes, but I'm still a Catholic because there are many things that the Church is correct about such as abortion. Also, I appreciate that the Catholic Church does not preach free love, and marriage by same-sex.

It's hard to believe that many things today are generally accepted today which would be thought as impossible just decades ago. C'mon, gay parades at Disney World? What's up with that crap? It's a park for kids.

Great choice, MinorityRepublican.

Thanks. This article by Sobran really cleared things up about the left for me. I can see the big picture now.

How so?

The bee buzzing you hear is just a side effect.

Can you be more specific please?

A continuing problem. The stupidity of "moderates" and "centrists" who are apathetic about such destructive tendencies in our decadent society is also part of this syndrome.

You are correct. Many Republicans do not realize that the real war is the culture war. And we're losing ground rapidly. There is not much left to defend. We must not yield one more inch!

Patrick Buchanan was correct in his book, The Death of the West.

Even though I do not agree with him on many things, he's dead on issues relating to the culture war and immigration. If Republicans had similiar views as him, the country would not be in this such state today.

If we want to reclaim America, we must recapture the culture from freaks such as Alec Baldwin in Hollyweird.

FR is a great example of the internets ability to reach people who have minds of their own and can think for themselves. Unfortunately most americans are programed to process the 10 second liberal news media sound bite as reality.

What I think will happen is that more and more Americans will lose interest in our country in general. Heck, there was an article about high school seniors not knowing our basic American history. (If somone can give me a link to that article, it would be great. Thanks)

So what may happen is that 80% of Americans would be filled with apathy and not bother to vote at all. However, 20% of the Americans are either rabid "left wingers" or "right wingers". We just have to hope with decreasing turnout in elections will ultimately favor us. (Although we cannot forget about voter fraud)

It would be just awesome if RINOs decided to stay at home, and people like us will be able to vote for the candidates that we really want. Then perhaps, the country might change. Really, it is up to the minority (that's us) for things to change. Remember the American Revolution was led by the elite such as Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, Benjamin Franklin just to name a few.

Thanks for the post.

You're right: This is an oldie. And it is certainly a goodie.

The Hive analogy works for liberalism. And so does the liberalism-is-a-religion analogy.

They are both effective ways to understand liberals and their thought processes.

The most striking thing about the Hive analogy is the rigid programming involved. No independent thought can be allowed; no bee can wander off the reservation. Just as socialism is inherently totalitarian, there is also an innately inhuman aspect to it.

Liberals/Socialists/Culutral Marxists are all part of the Hive and that’s why Ann Coulter is calling out on them. She sees that it is pointless to try to negotiate with them. Too bad not enough Conservatives are aware of this. I believe that this is a required reading for all those who wants to stop Hillary. At this point, she’s the queen bee and she has worker bees in the media covering her rear end.

And a bee in the Hive has turned against her, openly challenging her superiority. She is very upset.

This will provide interesting viewing...
