I still like my namesake's aphorism from 200 years ago...

"Fear, greed and vanity. These are the three great levers by which men are moved."

And the left has paid close attention, haven't they?

    * Fear -- Because of George Bush, this poor black man got dragged to his death in Texas.

    * Greed -- We must put a stop to George Bush's war on terrorism, so that money can be used for better purposes, such as "free" education, "free" income, "free" medical care and anything else you want for "free."

    * Vanity -- you're just as deserving of high grades, school admission, professional licensure and six-figure income as anybody else, just because you exist.

Yes, but here are some rules for God's radicals they may not understand:

1. God's strength is made perfect in our weakness as we rely on HIM, not on ourselves.

2. Humble ourselves before God and HE will lift us up.

3. Behold, God is at work creating a new heaven and a NEW EARTH in which there will be NO TRACE of Alinsky or any of his disciples who will all be in hell with their leader, the prince of darkness.

Oh - and also - it pleased God to take the weak things, the foolish things of this world to confound the "wisdom of the wise" (in their own eyes) bring His Salvation to His Beloveds through the "foolishness" of the Cross upon which the Prince of GLORY died!

"If I be lifted up, I will draw all men unto me". Another "radical" gave that "rule" and it is one that neither Hitlery, nor Alinsky, nor Stalin, nor Saddam, nor all the gates of hell shall prevail against!
