Madam President?

Fox News Analyst Dr. Monica Crowley suggested over a year ago that the ONLY one who can replace the First Black President is the First Woman President. In a nation known for it's Firsts, what could be more appropriate?
Notice how quiet Hillary Clinton has been lately? She is keeping her head down for a reason, and that is to determine which way the wind is blowing with regards to popular (or more likely, UNpopular) opinion of the current administration. I predict that, after stinging Democrat losses in the House and Senate this November, Hillary will resign as Secretary of State and begin her campaign to replace President Obama. She will take advantage of the fractures within the Democratic party and try to bring the base back towards the center.

Yes, folks, it is going to be Hillary vs. Sarah, battling for the White House in 2012. But it is going to be more than just the Presidency at stake...they will be vying for the future of our Republic, *IF* it lasts that long.

I qualify that prediction, not because I have seen the movie "2012" or read the prophecies of Nostradamus, but because of the QUITE VISIBLE agenda of the Obama administration to do whatever they want, regardless of the will of the people! They will dictate that Arizona can't enforce Federal Immigration Law, yet leave the Sanctuary Cities, who openly flaunt their disdain of those same laws, unprosecuted.

I qualify that prediction because I have read the Progressive Playbook, and I understand that the "tipping point" of anarchy is dangerously close.

Occam's Razor

Back in the 14th century, Friar William Seach of Ockham put forth a simple theory--"entities should not be multiplied beyond necessity". Put in simplest terms, the explanation with the fewest assumptions is usually the correct one.

I have personally used Occam's Razor in many cases, most notably while debunking the 9/11 Truther theory that the September 11 terrorist attacks were an inside job. What is more likely, after all?
A) Our oversized government, headed by the biggest moron on the planet, with it's notorious inability to keep secrets wired the Twin Towers and WTC #7, the Pentagon, AND a remote field in Pennsylvania with explosives, spirited away 208 passengers from 4 different aircraft at 3 different airports, wired those aircraft to be flown remotely, faked thousands of cell phone calls from those passengers, and then orchestrated everything that happened?
Or B) Our oversized government with it's myriad of alphabet agencies with their turf battles for taxpayer money and splinters of intelligence failed the American people?

How about more recently? Is it possible that:
A) The most unqualified and Liberal President ever elected has INADVERTENTLY surrounded himself with known Communists, Socialists and Marxists, has MISTAKENLY acquired control over most of the American economy, and is UNINTENTIONALLY shredding our Constitution.
Or B) A young, articulate man of color, with a hazy background and history of association with 60s radicals, with a Black Liberation Theology pastor as a mentor, is orchestrating the collapse of the American capitalist-based Republic for the purpose of a "FUNDAMENTAL TRANSFORMATION" as HIGHLIGHTED STEP-BY-STEP in the Progressive Playbook pictured above?

It's time to start eliminating the assumptions. Barack Obama has never been shy in admitting his desire for FUNDAMENTAL TRANSFORMATION. He has also never shied away from admitting his desire for REDISTRIBUTION OF WEALTH. Michelle Obama has also stated that "for the first time in my adult life, I'm proud of America". Now why would you want to fundamentally transform something you cherished and held dear? That's like making your son go through a sex-change operation because you wanted a daughter!

Yes, candidate Obama promised us change. Unfortunately, too few of you out there asked "change to WHAT?" I pray that you do your homework, put the puzzle pieces together yourself, and ask if any of it makes sense. If it does make sense, then you probably deserve to be a slave to government. If it doesn't make sense, then let's start taking our country back in November and FIRE CONGRESS!

THE PLOT THICKENS

Progressivism and Black Liberation Theology

As I delve deeper and deeper into the substrata of the numerous issues facing Americans today, my research takes me to some strange places and even stranger ideas. Many of these "issue paths" lead into dead ends, but every now and then I travel down a road that sheds some bright and very disturbing light on things.

My recent research into the century-old American Progressive movement, as well as into today's active players, has brought me onto what I will refer to as A-HA Boulveard! Many things are becoming clearer and clearer now.

BLACK LIBERATION THEOLOGY is a doctrine that suggests that the GROUP salvation of the oppressed (Blacks) can only come at the expense of, repentance by or conquest of their oppressors (Whites) rather than INDIVIDUAL salvation through faith in God and Jesus Christ. Theologian James Hal Cone, the acknowledged founder of this movement, argues that, "We cannot solve ethical questions of the twentieth century by looking at what Jesus did in the first. Our choices are not the same as his. Being Christian does not mean following 'in his steps.'" Cone also suggests what must occur if there is not reconciliation by the White community. He states, "We can be certain that Black patience has run out, and unless White America responds positively to the theory and activity of Black Power, then a bloody, protracted civil war is inevitable."
The most visible example of a Black Liberation Theology Pastor? Reverend Jeremiah "God DAMN the U.S.A.!" Wright.

Like their Progressive counterparts, this totalitarian groupthink mindset MUST trump all; without exception, there can be no individuality accepted. What about Blacks who disagree with the tenets of the Black Liberation Theology? Ask Project21 member Deneen Borelli, a Black conservative and member of the Tea Party...she says in a recent AOL BlackVoices interview that she's been called an "oreo" and an "Uncle Tom."

Ms. Borelli believes that there would be more black people at Tea Party events like the April 15th tax day protests if they weren't so afraid of the backlash they would receive from family and friends.

The conjunction of these two philosophies comes in the form of President Barack Obama. We all know that the President was a member of Reverend Wright's Trinity United Church of Christ (TUCC) for over 20 years, and that he referred to the Reverend as his "mentor" in matters of faith. We know that he distanced himself from the Reverend and TUCC after videos of some fiery and racially-charged sermons came to the forefront. But can one distance themselves from something that was drilled into the fabric of their being for 20 years?

President Obama has never been shy about his socialist agenda, specifically through FUNDAMENTAL TRANSFORMATION of America via REDISTRUBTION OF WEALTH. In office, he has surrounded himself with numerous "czars", many having Marxist, Communist or Socialist backgrounds and beliefs. Van Jones, Cass Sunstein, Valerie Jarrett, Rahm Emmanuel, etc.

President Obama's recent appointment of Healthcare Czar Dr. Donald Berwick HAD to be done during a Congressional recess in order to avoid those pesky confirmation hearings. Why? In Berwick's own words, "...healthcare must, MUST, be redistributionist in nature."

The playbook is out there for all to read, folks...Saul Alinsky's RULES FOR RADICALS, and it is being followed step-by-step. Believe it or not, IT IS NOW ON THE REQUIRED READING LIST IN MANY HIGH SCHOOLS, which in itself is another page out of the RULES FOR RADICALS playbook.

Coming Next - Is there a "Madam President" in our future?

Battling Progressivism

Progressives seek the complete and utter destruction of the American system and way of life in order to create "a non-racist, classless, feminist socialist society". (I'm directly quoting the Socialist Party USA statement of principles.)

You might ponder--Socialism has been tried time and time again and has always failed. Why would anyone believe that it would work here and now? Progressives believe that they have learned the mistakes of the past Socialist societies and can get it right this time. They believe that constant tinkering with a failed idea will somehow fix it, rather than tinkering with a successful idea to make it better. There is a major flaw in their belief which I will highlight shortly.

Even as a distinct minority, they are succeeding! How can 1% or 4% or 7% of the population manage to co-opt the larger percentage of Americans? By piggy-backing on the Liberal agenda, they support the goals of and give credence to every minority fringe group. They hope to maintain and/or gain the votes to keep the balance of power tilted towards ever-increasing the size and scope of Government until it inevitably collapses under the crushing burden of debt. However, Progressives and Liberals differ in one way...Liberals believe in the elimination of failure by punishing success, whereas Progressives believe that elimination of success will, by default, eliminate failure.

The ONE major reason why Socialism will NEVER work is not American, or European or Asian in nature, but HUMAN nature! I call it the JURASSIC PARK theory. In that movie, there is a sequence that shows a goat being lowered into the Tyrannosaurus Rex paddock in order to coax the T-Rex into view. One of the scientists says something along the lines of "no, that won't work...T-Rex is a hunter! He doesn't want to be fed!"

Humans are the same way! The will of mankind to create, to achieve, to overcome, to succeed at something, at ANYTHING is in our DNA! In the 1950s and 60s, it was asked "Why expend the time and money to send a man to the moon?"

The American answer? "Because it's there!" The Socialist? "Because the Americans want to go." But what if there was no America?

Coming next...Identifying Progressives.

The Perversity of Progressivism

I detailed in my previous blog how the Progressives were using a methodology of forcing acceptance of perversion on society called THE OVERTON WINDOW. Progressives are the TRUE danger to society, and have been putting the pieces of America's downfall in place for almost a century now.

A BRIEF HISTORY - Woodrow Wilson started it all with the first progressive income tax (Revenue Act of 1913) and the 17th Amendment to the Constitution, which basically removed the power of the individual States to control their representation in Congress and placed it in the hands of Washington lobbyists and political power-brokers.
FDR furthered the cause of the Progressive Agenda with the federal spending on the NEW DEAL programs during his four(!!!!!) terms as President. Harry S Truman and Conservatives fought back and won a small battle in the bigger-government culture war by ratifying the 22nd Amendment to the Constitution limiting the Presidential reign to 2 elected terms.
The mainstream media, as well as our higher education system, began their radical leftward shift in the 1960s during the Viet Nam conflict and the "don't trust anyone over 30" drug-hazed counterculture.

What do Progressives want? In summary, quoting from the Socialist Party USA Statement Of Principles, they "strive to establish a radical democracy that places people's lives under their own control - a non-racist, classless, feminist socialist society...for democratic revolutions - radical and fundamental changes in the structure and quality of economic, political, and personal relations..."
The Progressives are a distinct minority in this country, yet their agenda is succeeding. How? First, by gaining elected office. They are scattered throughout Congress and the Supreme Court, and now the Presidency. Second, by controlling the mass media and entertainment industries. Third, by controlling the higher education system.
The key to the whole thing is Liberals...they think a lot like Progressives, they just don't want to take it as far...if they do, they lose their power! Progressives know that Liberals can take our society, our way of life, to the brink, but don't have the stomach for the necessary (sorry, Tony!) revolution. The Progressives are just waiting for us to get to the brink, then they will eat the Liberals up and spit out the carcasses as they shove us into a very dark abyss.

Progressives and the Overton Window

The Overton Window was originally postulated by the former Vice-President of the Mackinac Center for Public Policy, Joseph Overton (1960-2003). Most commonly used to demonstrate political spectra, it can be geared to accommodate ANY desired methodology. Basically, it is used to depict what any given society deems acceptable at any given time. Over time, the position of the window over that defined spectrum shifts based on popular plurality.

Progressives have long understood that on any given issue, they are a clear minority. However, by supporting multiple minority far-left positions, they have shifted the window of public acceptability, as well as government intervention, into areas that would make our Founding Fathers and our grandparents roll over in their graves.

A majority of the population, both Liberal and Conservative alike, support the legal definition of marriage as the lifelong union of a man and a woman. Progressives, however want to go much further, into the realms of polygamy, bestiality and worse. By merely suggesting this major shift to the left of the Overton Window as it applies to human relationships, as a society we have accepted a lesser leftward shift into forced acceptance of homosexuality.

Discrimination laws used to protect those in a minority class that had no choice in being members of that minority class. Race, gender, ethnicity, physical handicaps and even to a degree, religion, are classes that deserve government protection in society and the workplace. But now we have entered the realm of government intervention into personal choice by establishing perversion by choice as a protected minority class.

Emboldened by this success of the minority over the majority, the Progressive agenda has now managed to score recent additional victories. Government takeovers of the banking, automotive and insurance industries against the wishes of the majority of Americans have succeeded, and now our government is taking over the health care industry. The energy industry is next, especially with the furor that has been created over the Deepwater Horizon oil-rig tragedy in the Gulf of Mexico.

Fundamental transformation of the greatest society in history..."Yes, We Can!" But should we?
