It’s sad, really. Many people consider themselves to be Democrats without fully understanding the party’s, platform, beliefs, agenda, motivations or even who is running things behind the scenes. And I will be honest and balanced. Many Republicans are the same way. The difference, IMHO, is the Republican party is most closely aligned with conservative principles. The Democrats are now days called Progressives but they are really just statist’s. Yes, their philosophy is described as liberalism but the driving force behind all they say and do is statism.

A satist believes “that sovereignty is vested not in the people but in the national state, and that all individuals and associations exist only to enhance the power, the prestige, and the well-being of the state. The fascist concept of statism, which as seen as synonymous with the concept of nation, and corporatism repudiates individualism and exalts the nation as an organic body headed by the Supreme Leader and nurtured by unity, force, and discipline.”¹ So what, are they fascists too? You tell me. “The concept of fascism which goes so far as to “advocate the creation of a single-party state, with the belief that the majority is unsuited to govern itself through democracy and by reaffirming the benefits of inequality.”² Sound familiar? It should. The current Obama administration and a majority of both houses of Congress are currently being run by this philosophy and its cousin, socialism.

Well they won the election didn’t they? Don’t get me started. No, it was a gift from their cronies in the MSM, the corrupt community organizers of ACORN, several unions and the uneducated populace. The price? The America we all know and love.

So what is their end game? Where will there policies and ideas and changes take us? Have a look.

One of the first political blogs I started to follow several years ago was Powerline. Partly because they were from Minnesota which for a number of years was my sales territory and I was thrilled to visit often. But mainly I liked their commentary and timeliness. I consider them one of my models. Here then is a story posted October 23 that tells more of the story of just how our elected officials behave when they think no one is watching.
Power Line – Those Republicans just “don’t know how to behave”.
