You say you want a revolution....

Glenn Beck yesterday suggested that the Comrade and his merry marxists are doing all they can to foment a revolution -- a really bloody revolution -- in the USA. I think so, too.

See, when you don't have a strong, positive, logical approach to life based on perceivable reality, there's only one way you can deal effectively with that reality:  bullying, intimidating, and trying to control others who do have an effective and rational approach. Similarly, if you can't win a debate with words and ideas, the dictators and despots of the world -- including the Comrade and his supporters -- tend to resort rather quickly to threatening tactics, and eventually violence. If you won't agree with them, or at least keep your mouth shut, in the end they'll just kill you.

But then they run into that Margaret Thatcher thing:  "The trouble with socialism is that eventually you run out of other peoples' money."

The trouble is, because these people are incapable of dealing with reality directly, they need the rational and productive part of the population -- those folks who don't agree with their politics -- for simple survival. The Comrade's problem is convincing the strong and productive that they need him. They don't. As a matter of fact, the socialists, marxists, fascists, totalitarians -- whatever -- prove over and over again that they can't make it without enslaving the honest and productive. It's the despots who are the weak, helpless, and frightened ones.

Consider slavery as it was in the US and probably most other places. It was, for sure, incredibly tough on the slaves. It was just as bad on the slave owners, perverting their reasoning, rendering them helpless and dependent, and useless in meeting the requirements of the real world. The slave owners were, in fact, much like the Comrade:  first of all almost unbelievably arrogant; and dogmatic in the sense that they never questioned the ideas upon which they based their lives, rather, they told themselves lies and continually supported each other in this weird isolation and insulation from the real world. And the slave owners were entirely dependent upon the slave population, though they convinced themselves it was the other way around. But they knew if slavery was abolished, they couldn't survive.

They were just like the democrats in congress now. They believe that if they can get enough people to agree to their silly drivel, it will be true. Like they're all sitting in a circle, holding hands and praying for the Tooth Fairy to solve the nation's problems. In this case, it's socialized medicine. Next week, it will be crap-and-tax or immigration "reform."

Sorry, but those things are not solutions. They will not and cannot succeed. They aren't based on honest fact.

Consider Gallileo. He got very interested in some wild and crazy ideas a guy named Copernicus had been developing. Specifically, Copernicus suggested that perhaps planet earth was not the center of the universe. Rather, perhaps planet earth orbited the sun instead of the other way around. Gallileo thought up an experiment -- actually an astronomical observation -- that would prove or disprove Copernicus's theory. Gallileo's experiment indicated that Copernicus was probably right.

Well, the Holy Roman Church -- which really was the most powerful political organization in Europe at the time -- didn't like that at all. They had preached and believed that earth was the center of the universe, mainly because the Bible said God created man in His image, so it naturally follows that earth would be the hub of all things.

They jailed Gallileo and I believe wanted to put him on trial for heresay -- or for generally disagreeing with the church. Gallileo finally issued a statement that said something like, "I don't agree with the crazy ideas of Copernicus."

That is, Gallileo backed down. Shocking? Gutless weakling, huh? No. More like he understood it didn't matter what the church said, the earth revolves around the sun, and there is nothing the church or anyone else can do about that. No matter how many choruses of Kumbiyah they sing, how many arms they twist or bribes they offer.

With implementation of the Comrade's policies, socialized medicine, his proposal to get all the illegal aliens to vote for him -- that is, immigration reform -- crap-an-tax, and all that bullshit -- it's all built on a warped and perverted vision of reality. If any of this stuff actually goes into practice in a major way, it will destroy the United States. Only the Comrade himself -- and maybe Michelle -- really know if he honestly believes in all the bullshit he promotes, or if he's deliberately trying to ruin the nation.

He must know socialism and communism don't work. They've been tried and tried, and they don't work. However, it is possible for a self-proclaimed "humanitarian" dictator to enslave a population under pretense of "doing the right thing." But that takes an army and some version of the KGB for enforcement. Seems we will have the IRS in that role.

I have to assume that the Comrade knows he's wrecking the greatest nation on earth, the only hope for humankind, the light of the world. He must extinguish that flame because it so totally opposes all the mushy crap and false, self-serving assumptions his life is built upon. He hasn't got the guts and/or the brains to admit he's wrong. He's invested everything he has in a piece of swampland, and dammit, he's going to make if work if he has to kill us all.

And I don't know how long Americans will tolerate this bullshit. I'm thinking the Comrade believes one or two more straws will break the camel's back. Someone will go nuts and make an assault -- and there's his Reichstag Fire -- his reason to clamp down some kind of martial law and name himself King of the Universe.

That's where this is all headed. It's also one way to avoid an election.

My advice: don't play the game. If you can't act in a positive way -- like campaigning your butt off for a conservative candidate -- at least resist. Don't believe the lies, but hold onto your own view of the realities around you.  Stuff your savings into your mattress. Stall, obfuscate, stutter, play dumb -- this is how the Russians survived under communism. "I'm not disagreeing with you; I'm just too stupid to comply. You can't shoot me for that." That's also how the slaves in the antebellum USA survived.

Then vote these snot-nosed rat-bastards out of office at the first and every other opportunity.

Save the Republic.
