Liberals Awake from 8-Year Moral Coma
American Thinker ^ | January 7, 2016 | Jeffrey T. Brown

Posted on 01/07/2017 5:40:20 AM PST by Kaslin

For eight years, the voices of what passes for morality on the left were utterly silent as the values of generations of Americans were flushed down the drain. Those Americans whose desires, experiences and values differed from the leftist elite were treated as worthless garbage, no longer necessary to the imminent liberal utopia, except as a source of revenue. Christianity was treated like a virus to be extinguished, or revised and controlled to accommodate leftist ideology. Speech that offended the shameless was branded as hateful, and those daring to openly object to the onslaught of vice and immorality were falsely smeared with every vile epithet the liberals could conjure. Rights were relegated to what Democrats were willing to grant their enemies, but we were never going to be entitled to privileges they reserved to themselves.

Our nation has been assaulted for eight long years by those who contributed nothing of substance to its successes, but were eager to pillage its resources to fund and advance their political agenda. Every means possible to offend and marginalize their political opposition was employed, so that decent people were called racists, “phobes,” haters, deniers, liars, morons, bullies, and many unprintable things, all for wishing to have a say in what was being done to them by the left, and for possibly stopping the moral, philosophical and physical violence that have always been tools of leftist overthrow.

Love it.... Dead on...

“Suddenly, after eight years in which their secret mantra seems to have been “Make America Hate Again,” they protest that the notion of stopping their immoral destruction of our country is itself immoral and hateful. “

Cultural Marxist and liberal are now synonyms. Should be included in the dictionary that way.

Yep. The useful idiots of old replicated themselves (mainly by perverting education as a form of indoctrination) and have created madness in their wake just as their long gone Soviet masters intended.

In fact, they are so intent on being the dry rot in the ship of state that they have been all too easily manipulated by the likes of the OIC or Muslim Brotherhood.

Excellent commentary. However, the Progressive Liberal onslaught did not begin 8 years ago but at least 70 years ago. That’s when Progressive ‘self-designated elites’ brought much of the Frankfurt School into our society and financed their stealth jihad, or planting of the seeds which when ripe allowed for the undermining and eventual overthrow of our foundations and institutions.

An OUTSTANDING article .. on a par with Dan Greenfield's work, and that's sayin' somethin' !

There's palpable anger out here.
The marxist seditionists, blithely ignoring Yamamoto's prophetic words, have awakened a sleeping giant.

Having paid several personal prices over the years for refusing to bow to Political Cowardice, I intend to stay the course with as much vigor as the remaining years will allow.

I implore all of us to do likewise, as it's the only way we'll ever stop the civilization-killing cancer of the utterly evil Left.

... we can trace the beginning ... before a man with no identifiable accomplishments to his name other than being half-black and hip eluded all scrutiny before his election as president;

before race relations were destroyed for political profit;

before people lost their livelihoods for not bending to government coercion;

before people lost their health insurance on the basis of lies;

before anti-white racism became fashionable;

before the press was merely an extension of the Democratic Party;

before our military and security were sacrificed to social justice;

before our college students became simpering toddlers without an original thought;

before our country sold out to Iran and the Muslim Brotherhood;

before science was rendered meaningless in order to advance political goals;

before we ignored laundry lists of felonies by Democrats;

before it was cool to assassinate police;

before our southern border was erased;

before those same liberals tacitly invited every terrorist who could walk or say “refugee” to enter our country, plant roots, and plan the inevitable attacks;

and before our president and his followers became the laughingstock of the civilized world.

Jeffrey T. Brown reminds us how horrible liberal elites have been to us and our country. We must never trust or believe them again.

Awakened?

They have not. Obama certainly hasn’t. He thinks he has been the greatest president ever. Don’t believe me — just ask him. He has been spreading that b.s. around for months.

So, why would his Lib sycophants be any different? Most of them see him as even greater than sliced bread. And they think all Greek columns are made of styrofoam.

They are still just as delusional as he is.

Current history will continue to give him glowing remarks and the media will continue to feed his ego. But in a quarter-to-half century, history will likely not be so kind. It will be more willing to address the Obama failures in both foreign and domestic relations.

Dear Progressives, Thank You for Reminding Us of the Real Reasons We Fight You

"As if they see the world in only one or two dimensions, so-called “progressives” seem incapable of processing their overwhelming emotions outside a narrow framework of self-pity and raging narcissism. Because they appear to think about the world around them in ways guided entirely by emotion, unlike their foes who see emotion as a dangerous foundation for permanent change, they react to disappointment or loss as self-righteous victims, or antisocial thugs, rather than mentally sound individuals."

"It seems necessary to their fragile psyches to believe that any opposition to their obvious superiority is illegitimate, and therefore its proponents deserving of punishment. The irony of this fact will be utterly lost on any progressive reading this."
