Midknight Review -- new and revised: The move to socialism is not the problem in this country, in and of itself. Rather . . . . . .

<<<< From the Editor.

As I see it, socialism is a "great idea" that cannot work without other people's money (more than actually exists, btw) and a high degree of populace/central control . . . . which make it a bad idea. But the move to socialism is not the problem in this country, in and of itself. Europe is socialist but with borders and established limits. The socialists currently in charge, here at home, are One Worlders with no limits as to their scheme to redistribute wealth (which makes us all equally poor), and are willing to trade established and proven Constitutional law and values for a system of Central Control in which the Utopian population IMPOSES its will on the rest of us smucks. There is no "upward mobility" in our version of socialism and the "war on poverty", 7 trillion dollars later, proves its impracticability, or so I think. But "socialism" is not the reason from my angst. We can and have Americanized socialist legislation. We did it with our primary educational system and Social Security (not perfected, but we did it the American way). What I cannot abide, however, what I hate is a president who goes to sleep while men in Benghazi are screaming for help - not knowing that he has already written them off; a military that has "rules of engagement" that have killed hundreds of our soldiers; and the lies and corruption of the political class. In my opinion, it is not "socialism" or even Borderless Collectivism that is the national threat as much as is sheer waste, fraud and a brand of corruption that is grounded in contempt for our laws. We, at the national level (only), are as lawless as was Jesse James. Our refusal to close the border using established law, the existence of more than 80 lawless "sanctuary cities," our willingness to ignore congressional law that protects minority political opinion, and the use of dictatorial powers to circumvent federal law and practice, all go to proving my point. What is common in each of my examples is the fact of "lawlessness." Anarchy, no matter how structured, will always be the death of any institution, whether that be a federal government or a marriage.

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
