Ronald Reagan once said about the left, "Well, the trouble with our liberal friends is not that they're ignorant; it's just that they know so much that isn't so." This cast of characters is not your parents Democrats. And while these elite progressives do think they know what is best for you, or rather isn't so, they are quite sinister and are from honest brokers seeking the best decisions for America.
When this group identifies individuals who pose what they deem as a serious political threat to their objectives, the long knives are unleashed. Sadly, due to the progressivism in both parties, the attacks come from both sides of the aisle.
During the recent presidential campaign, Mitt Romney was falsely accused, by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid no less, of failing to pay his taxes to Uncle Sam. In addition, as reported by The Blaze, a pro-Obama Super PAC Priorities USA on Tuesday released an ad accusing Mitt Romney of being somehow responsible for the death of the wife of Joe Soptic, a former GST Steel employee and a known Obama campaign operative.
Previously, we have chronicled the vicous attacks that came down upon Michele Bachmann (R:MN), who dared to question, upon accurately noting an infiltration of our government by the Muslim Brotherhood, the vetting process of those who work within and closely with our government. You were left wondering who the enemy actually is.
In the hearings to confirm former Nebraska Senator Chuck Hagel as Defense secretary, freshman GOP Congressman Ted Cruz took it to Hagel, only to be condemned by a slew of Democrats, including Florida Senator Bill Nelson. Progressive republican John McCain, who had earlier admonished Hagel, a former close ally, publicly scolded Cruz. Conservatives have been longing for someone like Cruz to strongly articulate the principles of conservatism. Included among those principles would be to prohibit individuals cozy with our enemies from being appointed to high ranking positions, and Chuck Hagel, (R:NE), is such an individual.
While it is customary for political operatives to launch attacks, the mainstream media frequently uses their platforms to manipulate and nudge a citizenry so whipsawed from swirling events they cannot decipher fact from fiction. NBC has been busted several times for doctoring video tape in recent years, and the Associated Press routinely errors in favor of the progressive angle.
A blatant example recently was The Associated Press printing erroneous comments attributed to Sen. Rand Paul, (R:KY), suggesting he sought to round up illegal immigrants. With Paul a borderline Libertarian, that thought process goes against his core beliefs and should have rang false to those who put forth the article. No such luck. After the public had two days to digest the comments Paul supposedly made, AP released a correction nobody heard or saw.
Without question, the harshest attacks over the Obama first term were launched upon Sarah Palin. Over and over and over again, the mainstream political pundits tell us how stupid and ill-prepared for higher office she is, but given the relentless attacks routinely bestowed upon Palin, one has to wonder why someone so weak commands such attention. Actual fact, the left fears Palin; and they should.
Recently, a story reported Palin, fresh off her contract with FOX News not being renewed, has signed a contract with Al-Jazzera. Several left wing outlets, frothing at the mouth to attack Palin, released the story. One problem; it was false. Somebody get the egg on the face Washington Post on the phone.
Palin had a great time poking fun at these low life Obamabots masquerading as journalists.
For someone lacking the intellectual fortitude to challenge the progressives on the battlefield of ideas, the amount of attention paid to her is astonishing. Given what we are led to believe, this is the equivalent of the Alabama Crimson Tide worrying about the goings on over at Troy State. To anybody who can engage in critical thinking, the truth is Palin is perhaps the one they fear the most.
Shifting gears, while the republicans are presented as those who wish harm on others against the backdrop of the civil progressives who seek to help everyone, the vitriol that comes at Palin should be very revealing for anyone not considered among the three blind mice. Check out these tweets:
These message boards are full of hate from those aligned with the party of inclusion and civility. Since winning the public on the battlefield of ideas is not an option, propaganda laced with ridicule is the avenue of approach for this group.
Michele Bachmann continues to work on issues inclusive of national security and finance, almost always correct in her assessments. Sarah Palin was instrumental in getting several Tea Party candidates elected and continues to be very well respected in conservative circles, set to speak at the upcoming CPAC convention.. Rand Paul is considering a run for the oval office in 2016, and considered a very serous threat given his reach which extends far beyond his fringe father. Ted Cruz, who has yet to unpack his luggage in DC, has come to town on a mission of common sense based on founding principles.
Truth be told, the progressives telegraph who they fear as the most legitimate challengers to expose their true objectives, which are much deeper than most imagine and often at odds with their public rhetoric.
The aforementioned are a handful of progressive opponents who threaten the progressives and need discredited in the public eye. These progressive left are not intellectually challenged, and they operate with precision in manipulating a staggered public.
Friedrich Nietzsche once said “In individuals, insanity is rare; but in groups, parties, nations and epochs, it is the rule.”. With a criminally complicit media riding shotgun, the progressive elites are leading a nation of lemmings from freedom and liberty to dictatorship and socialism.
