THEIR DIRTY LITTLE SECRETS –– Part II
By Sara Pentz

As I wrote in Part I of this article, the liberal Democrats know exactly the nature of their convictions and values. But they don’t, won’t and can’t name them because the philosophy upon which they are based is repugnant––and it is their dirty little secret.

They urge judges to legislate morality from the bench and weaken the U.S. Constitution. They were amazingly silent about the Supreme Court ruling, for example, that allowed private property to be taken from an owner for the sake of their getting more of your taxes to spend––see Kelo v. City of New London. This 5 to 4 decision by the U.S. Supreme Court is an outright repudiation of the most basic American principle guaranteed in the U.S. Constitution––the protection for life, liberty and property. Its sole purpose is to raise taxes. Without the right to own property, there is no protection of life and liberty. Could this be exactly what the Leftists want?

Liberal Democrats devise legislation to hamstring the free enterprise system––a system that has made our country the strongest, most efficient and elegantly freest country in the world. They manhandle and embarrass corporate executives in trumped up hearings on the Senate floor. Their anger, resentment and hatred for the free enterprise system is at the core of their very being. Many of them support the extremist environmentalists and animal rights terrorists––two such causes dedicated to destroying capitalism. They deny they are in favor of violence of any nature, but their actions defy that denial.

Here is columnist David Limbaugh on the subject of how Liberals view taxes:

“Even on tax policy, they are less than candid about their underlying philosophy. They candy coat their position by patronizingly peddling taxes as "contributions" and government expenditures as "investments." They shroud their socialistic proclivities to redistribute wealth by portraying confiscatory tax hikes on major producers as a refund of money that properly belongs to government. Similarly, they shamelessly depict across-the-board tax-rate reductions as gifts to the rich.”

These Democrats undercut their country whenever possible. They are unwilling to support the president’s goals with his war on terror. "The President,” Ted Kennedy says, “argues that we need to take the fight to the enemy in Baghdad so we do not have to fight them here at home. But the President cannot escape responsibility for the fact that this decision to go to war in Iraq has made it even more likely -- not less likely -- that we will fight the terrorists in America.”

Whether the terrorists invade this country once again or not, the real issue is that Ted Kennedy––in this time of crisis and uncertainty––is only intent upon tearing down President Bush. He is putting his country at risk with his spurious statements. He spews his carefully worded tirades at the administration to make quotable headlines. Where are his ideas for saving America from the terrorists? Look at his record on Vietnam to understand his basic views about fighting for freedom.

Democrats like Kennedy foster racism by supporting people like Jesse Jackson who divide for the sake of power. In his book "Scam: How the Black Leadership Exploits Black America," Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson reports that “…increasing numbers of Americans have come to regard Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton and other establishment "black leaders" as con artists, gaining money and power by promoting racial tension and class warfare.”

Peterson shows “…how the civil-rights establishment has made a lucrative career out of keeping racial strife alive in America.” He reveals how “…establishment black leaders endlessly promise solutions to the problems of America's inner cities, but deliver only ineffective Band-Aids…from the dismal failure of the welfare system, to the farce of the slavery-reparations movement, to the problems within black churches and the hypocrisy and corruption of current black leaders…”

Democrats actually support programs that foster poverty by increasing give-away programs that only tax us more and promote irresponsibility. They fight to raise taxes on the rich not merely to redistribute wealth––a communist concept––but to ham–string those who generate the wealth through their own individual productivity.

Victor Davis Hanson, military historian and a senior fellow at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University, writes about Osama Bin Laden that he embodies much of what the Leftists in the Western World do:

“He harbored a deep-seated contempt for Western values, even though he was eaten within by uncontrolled envy...” “That is the dominant narrative of the Western Left and at times it finds its way into mainstream Democratic-party thinking.” “For the hard Left there is no absolute right and wrong since amorality is defined arbitrarily and only by those in power.”

Hanson is a moralist. He digs right in and names the issue at the heart of the liberal Democrats. He writes that they will not concede there is a right or wrong precisely because they do not want to play by those rules. They want to have their cake and eat it. It is the morality of an immature child:

“These tenets in various forms are not merely found in the womb of the universities, but filter down into our popular culture, grade schools, and national political discourse — and make it hard to fight a war against stealthy enemies who proclaim constant and shifting grievances. If at times these doctrines are proven bankrupt by the evidence it matters little, because such beliefs are near religious in nature — a secular creed that will brook no empirical challenge. These articles of faith apparently fill a deep psychological need for millions of Westerners, guilty over their privilege, free to do anything without constraints or repercussions, and convinced that their own culture has made them spectacularly rich and leisured only at the expense of others.”

But it is a mistake for Americans to take this blame. It is unearned and it is a dangerous stance. Because if we give in to the concept––that we are to blame for the flaws, evils and jealousies of the rest of the world––then we are doomed to relinquish our truths and principles, and the logical conclusion is that we will lose ourselves and our country to those who make us feel guilty.

We must not allow that. That is why it is so crucial to reveal the dirty little secrets of the leftist liberal Democrats––whose fundamental cause is to tear down ourselves, our country, our capitalistic society and our United States Constitution.
