Why do Democrats hate democracy?
NY Post ^ | 11/15/15 | Kyle Smith

**SNIP**

As recently as 2008, the Democratic Party presented 26 debates, which we mainly remember as the venues that presented Barack Obama with the opportunity to promise that he, unlike Hillary Clinton, would never support anything as preposterous as "the individual mandate," a k a fining people who don't have health insurance.

Now the Democratic National Committee is led by Debbie Wasserman Schultz, who was the chair of Hillary's 2008 campaign. Any doubts about which candidate she wants to win this time? She declared that any candidates that participated in debates outside of the tightly controlled DNC framework would be punished. Indeed, even someone who was caught questioning Wasserman Schultz's wisdom was punished: DNC vice chair Tulsi Gabbard, a Hawaii congresswoman, said that after she called for more debates, Wasserman Schultz's chief of staff called hers and told her she wasn't welcome at the October debate.

DNC spokesbot Holly Shulman innocently told Time, "All that was asked of Ms. Gabbard's staff was to prioritize our candidates." Make that candidate.

Why do free people allow liberals to walk among them destroying and taking their freedom?

Liberals only do what they do because people allow it.

On the contrary - they like voters so much they make them up out of nothing when there aren't enough. :)

We're a Constitutional Republic. Not a Democracy

The Progressive Movement's main obstacle to forward movement is America's Constitution's guarantee of a Republican form of Government.

U. S. A. Constitution
Article IV
Section 4

The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, ...

The Progressive Movement's main activity is influencing more Americans to abandon government by the rule of law under America's Republican form of Government in favor of law by the majority of man under a Democracy. Socialism cannot prevail without first achieving a Democracy. There are no short cuts.

Because they crave power. Democracy is but a means to that end, when convenient.

DemocRATS hate DEMOCRACY because they LOSE CONTROL.

They prefer TYRANNY .. because it gives them TOTAL CONTROL OVER THE PEOPLE.

It’s also been shown that DemocRATS admire the TYRANTS in the world .. because they really ENVY THEM AND THE POWER THEY WEILD.

And if we don’t vote correctly, a judge gives them the result they want by fiat.

It seems to me that all liberals care about is the minority. It’s like it’s the worst thing in the world if the majority gets what it wants.

The same reason they hate black people or strong women.

No demmicommies are the party of enslavement and they continue to be the party of enslavement. Every policy prescription is to further impoverish and depend the people so they can be returned to the plantation.

Democrats are SOCIOECONOMIC FASCISTS...

They want to control everything they can.

There is nothing “liberal” about them because they don’t like liberty.

“........Hillary Clinton is not so slippery. Despite the cynicism she shares with her husband, one can clearly observe an ideological spine that creates political difficulties for her that one knows he would be able to avoid. This is not to deny the force of her personal ambitions or the power of her narcissistic regard. But these attitudes could be expected in any member of a self-selected elite, especially one like the left, which is based on moral election.

For this reason, it would be difficult to separate the narcissistic from the ideological in the psychology of any political missionary. Do they advance the faith for the sake of the faith, or because advancing the faith will turn them into saints? Do the Lenins of history sacrifice normal life in order to achieve “big things” or because they hunger for the canonization the achievements will bring? It is probably impossible to finally answer the question. But we can observe that the narcissism of Stalin-ex-seminarian, Father of the People and doer of epic revolutionary deeds-makes the Clintons’ soap opera of self-love pale by comparison.

Despite their life-long collaboration, Bill and Hillary Clinton are different political beings in the end. Her marital rages provoked by a mate whose adolescent lusts put their collective mission at risk are probably a good measure of just how different they are.

“In their way of thinking,” Noonan observes of the Clintons, “America is an important place, but not a thing of primary importance. America is the platform for the Clintons’ ambitions, not the focus of them.” The implication is that if they were principled emissaries of a political cause, the ambition to do big things for America would override all others. Instead, they have focused on themselves and consequently have made the American political landscape itself “a lower and lesser thing.”

They have “behaved as though they are justified in using any tactic in pursuit of their goals,” including illegality, deception, libel, threats and “ruining the lives of perceived enemies ...... “They believe, she continues, “they are justified in using any means to achieve their ends for a simple and uncomplicated reason. It is that they are superior individuals whose gifts and backgrounds entitle them to leadership.” They do it for themselves; for the continuance of Them.............
