In your last comment you wrote, “That, TF, is where I can not agree. That statement of yours is direct from the days of McCarthy. Too sad for words.” <br /><br />In the public school system, a system dominated by the liberal left (see The Naked Capitalist by W. Cleon Skousen) the McCarthy hearings have been taught from one particular stand point, that of negativity. It might interest you to read a rather lengthy report on Global Governance, Marxism and how it was being exposed by McCarthy and others afraid that America’s Constitutional Republic was under attack and in danger. Is it any wonder the communists among us would paint McCarthy as some kind of insane monster?<br /><br />Henry Lamb has been covering the political scene for much longer than either of us and has written several articles exposing the Marxists strategy and players. Here’s a link to an article he wrote prior to my knowing him:<br /><br />http://www.apfn.org/apfn/global_governance.htm <br /><br />Simply put, the use of words to cloud issues has been expertly used by progressives. They have been able to convince a vast percentage of the population that the goal of Democracy is the same in communist countries as it is in America; truly a bald faced lie that deserves at least a moment of attention. The difference is at the heart of words.<br /><br />The communist philosophy holds that all rights come from government. The American Constitution and Bill of Rights specify that rights are natural (from God) and are protected from government; clearly these are not the same. <br /><br />The communist agenda is designed to do away with private property and any vestige of “natural” rights; in order to maintain control over the masses all individual rights must be done away with. America’s form of government is not compatible with any form of socialism, communism, Sharia or other imposed totalitarianism. Liberty and individual rights are dependent on God’s gift of Agency, the ability an individual has to make choices in life; that my friend is the reason I will never settle for less.T. F.

That statement of yours is direct from the days of McCarthy.<br /><br />Too sad for words.<br /><br />The point really is that it matters not who is POUSA. The real threats to USA, to the current state of this world in fact, lie beyond the powers of one man, of one nation, of one system of economics, any system of politics, even of any religion.<br /><br />I fear for my grandchildren, and the future of the world we will leave them. Why? Simply because our civilisation has been hell-bent on self gratification without any regard to the future. <br /><br />To make you feel better, I happen to agree that socialism is not the answer. But then the picture of the old lady begging in the main street of Apia comes back to mind. She was a widow. There was no reason for her own (birth) family to support her. There was no reason for her husband's family to support her, if they could. Just one face in a small crowd.The probligohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17882103150181414348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10101682.post-62728051842818722292011-09-11T22:01:10.034-05:002011-09-11T22:01:10.034-05:00Probligo, The issues you brought up are all valid...Probligo, The issues you brought up are all valid; how about that, we actually agree on some things. The issue which doesn't show up, and won't is that Obama and the folks who are his closest advisers actually want America to fail, want the dollar to become valueless, want a total collapse of the current system which depends on the American economy. These folks are banking on the chaos which will follow to usher in the Change to a Marxist society in which all the old documents are tossed in the trash in favor of shared misery.T. F.
