With each new revelation in the Van Jones saga -- more footage was found today in which he referred to then-President George W. Bush as being like a crackhead over his comfort with oil as an energy source -- it appears that his belief system isn't really anything out of the ordinary for a White House and a President who, at heart, come across as a "do as I say, or else" bunch of closet totalitarians.
Really, we can see it in almost every piece of legislation -- passed or sitting and awaiting passage -- put forth by the Obama people. They're littered with all sorts of compulsory "for your own good and the good of others" -type dictates couched in the mushy-headed liberal double-speak we've all come to know and love.
Putting aside the billions upon billions of dollars in bribes to "do what's right" that are scattered all over the economic stimulus bill, the liberal-totalitarian push gains steam in much of the carbon cap-and-trade bill.
There are no actual threats of overt violence against those who refuse to abide, but plenty of promise of monetary penalty and, ultimately, a loss of business and gradual erosion of personal freedoms, which is the way so-called "peace-loving peoples" try to pull off what they fear to do through guns and revolution.
Hope, though, springs eternal. And certainly Barack Obama and his fellow travelers in the Congress have found over the last month that maybe it's possible they've finally gone too far, and that they weren't actually given carte blanche to impose by executive and legislative fiat -- without even bothering to attempt to explain to people why they felt they had the right to do so -- what they want, when they want; even if it's "for our own good."
