6 Lessons to learn about Liberals

 Realize this, the Left very rarely means what they say.  Case in Point the "Dream Act".  A plan to allow ILLEGALS a free ride, that's not a dream, it's a nightmare.  Don't believe it, look at  Rick Perry in Texas and Jerry Brown in California.
 People find refreshing the direct answers to direct questions from candidates like Herman Cain and the wannabees like Gov. Christie.  People that is who want "Hope and Change" to incorporate freedom of choice.  The Left doesn't want you to have freedom of choice.  Why?  Because you are too stupid to know what is good for you in their world view.

 Don't believe me?   Just look to history for an example.  Take the Temperance movement, a well-meaning issue if ever there was one.  There is no denying the destructive force of alcohol, it is a drug just like nicotine and heroin.  The Temperance movement of the late 19th and early 20th centuries were well meaning people who were tired of the destructive force of alcohol on the American male and their families.  The Temperance folks were moved initially to create dry communities, then dry counties and then dry states.  However, what they realized was this was not enough, a person could after all just go to the next "wet" state for a drink. 

What did they do?  They targeted the saloon keeper.  Of course it wasn't the saloon keepers fault, granted, they did peddle the intoxicating elixir, but ultimately it is the fault of the drunkard as he is the one pouring the booze down his gullet.  No one forces him to do so; and there you have it, Lesson 1:  Demonize the purveyor of, whatever it is you as a Leftist are against, but never blame the consumer, they are just poor, innocent pawns in the devious plan of the "evil Capitalists".

What did the saloon keeper of that time do when the growing tide of Prohibition approached?  Nothing.  He figured that no man, no country in its' right man would prohibit Americans from doing what they wanted to with their lives, their money.  Why else did they do nothing?  Because in the days before a Federal Income Tax 70% of the Governments revenue came from excise taxes on liquor.  Which leads us to Lesson 2:  Liberals will always find a way to tax you.

So what then did the "dry" movement do?  It passed the 16th amendment allowing the Federal Government to impose upon the people the ability to tax all income, thus paving the way to shut down the saloon keeper, the brewer and the distiller since they had created a new revenue stream..

 Lesson 3:  Nothing is as it seems.  In a shrewd move the Prohibitionist aligned themselves with the Progressives whose actual goal then, and still today is, the re-distribution of wealth.  Spawned from that other Liberal the mid-19th century nightmare of a man known as Karl Marx.  This re-distribution of wealth is exactly what Obama is peddling now, and unapologetically.  The method today is the floating of the carbon tax idea, or Cap and Trade.  The goal is a shift in wealth  from the oil class to the “alternative energy” class.  It is not re-distribution at all but substitution.  Who will have the money then?  The Left.

Just as the Left used Prohibition to define what is was to be American,  so too today do we see the same tactics.  If you ain’t green, you’re mean, and “true” Americans must never be mean, we must be kind to everyone, even our enemies, we must be “tolerant”.  Tolerant, unless of course you have a different opinion than the folks on the Left, then you are a racist, a “homophobe” or whatever other slanderous label they can think of to affix to you.

Back to our history lesson:  As the final move to Prohibition loomed on the horizon what the “wet” folks do?  They divided.  The brewers pointed at the distillers as the true purveyors of the demon rum, which leads us to Lesson 4:   Divide and Conquer.  We see the same tactic today as the Right is trying to decide upon who is electable.  Instead of uniting behind a true Conservative like Herman Cain the Right is divided looking to RINO’s like Romney and Christie as their savior.   The Left viewed alcohol as a  Capitalist scheme to oppress the working man, they have the same attitude today toward the re-distribution of wealth, it was disguised then and it is now.  Which leads right into Lesson 5:   NEVER be surprised at how much the Left can distort an issue to class warfare. 

Lesson 6:  Never Underestimate Your Enemy.  Liberals’ are slippery little devils.  Case in point, look at the passage of Obamacare.  What was the event that sealed the fate of the “wet” states?  WWI.  That’s right.  The Temperance folks painted all the Americans of German descent as traitors.  The German American viewed beer as liquid bread, a very staple of life.  The Liberals said they were undermining the American fighting man by making him a drunkard.  Liberals are a committed lot, or should be committed, they DO NOT STOP!   They will endeavor to accomplish their Utopian Dream at any cost, no matter how many lives are destroyed in the process.  Their “dream” is our nightmare.  Why?  Because inevitably you must lose your freedoms so that they can pursue their goals.  Just as Prohibition restricted Americans choice, so too does Obamacare force Americans to do something.  We are being mandated by the government to do something against our will.  That is a clear violation of the 10th amendment, but they don’t care!  It is just another obstacle in the path to “Utopia” and as we said before, you are too stupid to know what is good for you.  Leave it to Liberals and you will be remembering this article in the re-education camps…with me!

That’s my opinion.
