“I believe I’m the only candidate now who . . . supports coverage of everybody and reducing our costs through health care reform.’’ So says Martha Coakley, who just convinced a majority of voting Democrats in Massachusetts to send her to the general election for the U.S. Senate. Reducing our costs? Every study on the proposed take over of 17% of the economy by the government(on top of the 13% they took over in the first months of the Obama administration) shows that costs will indeed go up for most Americans, only the people currently paying nothing(Democrats) will see their costs unaffected. Furthermore, the proposal has been shown to restrict care to most Americans, and to reduce our national life expectancy. This is all freely available information, any intelligent person following the health care debate is aware of all this.
Another humdinger heard leaving the lips of Democrats everywhere is "Most Americans support health care reform", uttered by John Kerry, Juan Williams, Nancy Pelosi, and a whole cavalcade of communists. But reality paints a different picture, only one New York Times poll - most likely conducted in a methadone clinic, in a Home Depot parkinglot full of day workers, at an abortion clinic, or in some other Democrat hotbed - shows public support of the socialist takeover of healthcare. All credible polls show that support to be hovering somewhere in the mid to low 30s and sinking daily. Again, this is not just freely available information, it is common knowledge, so pervasive and widespread is the consensus in polling.
Thent there was Climategate, where environmentalist hacks looking to shackle western capitalism were caught red-handed what many of us paying attention have known they were doing for a long time - LYING(spotting a pattern here?). Ed Markey was just on Fox News Sunday, pointing to a 2007 edition of the Global Warming bible as a means to refute hacked emails from 2009. OK, I don't think any non-Democrats need a piece of scratch paper to figure out that problem. The global warming religion has become an almost symbolic representation of Democrat doghma, and Markey - like all liberal politicians - knows it. They're not even trying to make sense anymore, it's almost like they know they don't have to, their voters are like zombies at this point, only with less work ethic.
The next Big Liberal Lie is my least favorite one, but it is Barney Frank's most popular one. Barney Frank used a vestige of the unconstitutional New Dead, one of two not to be repealed, the FHA, to create a wealth-redistribution pyramid scheme that would have made Bernie Madoff blush. This "houses-as-an-entitlement" boondoggle begun under Bill Clinton was a lynchpin of the economic collapse of 2008. The Federal Government clumsily regulating the SEC - while people like Harry Markopolus screamed from the rooftops - was also a factor, but this was just another facet of what was going on at the FHA; the Federal Government cannot manage a lemonade stand, never mind a stock market. So, after Barney Frank blows up our economy, making working Americans upside down on their mortgages while paying off the loans of welfare addicted Democrats, Barney and the Democrats scream about Wall Street corruption and ineptitude. Classic misdirection. Any person that can count to 20 without taking their shoes off now sees right through the deceit of Barrack Obama, Chris Dodd, Barney Frank, and the other corrupt members of the Sweetheart Loan club, but Barney Frank easily won reelection, AFTER pulling off this scam.
The last complete falsehood that liberal Democrats wrap themselves in like a blanket with sleeves is that the first two stimulus packages have had positive economic effects, that they have "created or saved thousands of jobs". Patently false. All Americans with an IQ over 50 took notice that the government generated reports of stimulus activity were about as credible as an ACORN balance sheet. These socialist hacks progressed (to use their term) from inventing individual jobs that were created or saved to inventing whole congressional districts. I mean, you don't need to be Tim Roth to realize you are being lied to at this point, yet liberal Democrats like Martha Coakley
John Cusack could play a liberal Democrat(which he is) in a movie, and call it "Say Anything", because they can. This brings me to the underlying question I have in this political cesspool we call a Commonwealth - Are Democrats that stupid? We can bitch and moan about these elected criminals all we want - Ted Kennedy was one my entire lifetime - but sooner or later, we have to look at the solid majority of people in this state that vote for them. And then I have to face a solid fact - the majority of people around me as I go through my daily life are either incredibly stupid, incorrigably communist, or irrevocably corrupt. Those are the only choices. A third grader with access to the internet can go through a list of our long-time elected officials - Ed Markey, John Kerry, Martha Coakley, Ted Kennedy, Barney Frank, any Speaker of the Massachusetts House of Representatives for the past 40 years - and see a rogue's gallery of dishonesty, incompetence, corruption, and just plain poor leadership. Yet all of them get reelected, what can you say about a state that has sent John Fraud Kerry to the U.S. Senate for twenty five years now?
To answer my own question, I think it is a combination of all three. Some liberal Democrats are communist, they are nihilistic progressives looking to destroy the current system to attain some imaginary society of ultimate fairness. They are ignorant more than stupid, if they had studied history written by someone besides Howard Zinn, ironically it would dawn upon them that our system has come closer to being a truly fair and equitable society than any in history, ask a Venezuelan about it if you'd like. And some liberal Democrats are that corrupt, they play off the last group (in a minute) while lining their pockets, this would encompass 99% of elected liberal Democrats. Think of Al Gore, who amassed $100 million without ever having a job by simply running around like a global warming revivalist preacher. Or John Kerry, another member of the "Never Worked a Real Job" club, paying an 18% tax rate on his annual bond interest while helping to drive our tax rates up to the 50% level. They support socialism because it lines their pockets, plain and simple. And that brings me to the last group of liberal Democrats - yes, they are just plain stupid. These are what Joe Stalin called "useful idiots", and if our country heads more in that direction, our own politboro members might do so more openly also. They get their political opinions off snippets of MSNBC during commercial breaks, from bumper stickers, and in the lunchrooms of their state jobs. There's no other way to slice it. If you have someone that believes a)socialized medicine will reduce costs and improve coverage, b)most Americans support healthcare, c)the Global Warming debate is settled science, d)that Wall Street caused the housing bubble to crash our markets, and e)the stimulus plan is stimulating the economy, then look around you; there is a stupid person in the room, and it is you! I've travelled the country over, and trust me, you'll find more intelligent Americans behind the wheels of a John Deere any given day than in a Cambridge coffeehouse.
Of course, that's just my opinion, I could be wrong.
