According to the latest Gallup poll 40% of Americans identify themselves as conservatives and 36% identify themselves as moderate with only 20% being self described liberals. With such a minority on the left, how is it possible that America’s president is the most left wing, radical liberal in the history of the Republic? Simple, a government run education monopoly coupled with an extremely biased media resulting in a level of misinformation unparalleled in the universe.
Consider that the main source of news for many Americans are the alphabet networks with anchors such as Katie Couric who is more fit for an appearance on Dancing with the Tards than to deliver the news. Millions of Americans flock to buy People Magazine, log into TMZ or watch Entertainment tonight for their daily dose of whose screwing who in Hollywood yet they couldn’t name their state senators or Congressman.
Perhaps the silver lining is that CNN is now dead last in the ratings of cable news networks. The aforementioned 40% of informed Americans are the driving force behind Fox News continuing its domination in this arena.
Print media is down another 10.6% which certainly isn’t attributable to inflation or a nearly flat viewing of internet alternatives but rather due to the inherent bias resulting in most newspapers being better used as toilet paper than a news or information source.
But none of this seems to matter to liberals who are intent on ramming through socialized medicine irrespective of the financial consequences or generational theft. What’s more amazing is that Americans, who overwhelmingly are opposed to socialized medicine are sitting idly by more concerned about which celeb is adopting another baby from Obama’s Kenyan homeland.
Perhaps it’s time for each and every one of us to take the initiative to inform our ill informed family, friends, relatives and neighbors of the failures of liberalism. Start by going up to an unemployed Obama voter and asking them how that stimulus is working out and then remind them that when Bush left office the unemployment was less than 5%. Ask about the coddling of terrorists in Club Gitmo and then point out the escalating troop deaths in Afghanistan. Remind them about the failures of social security and medicare and remind them that those programs are the poster children for the health reform being proposed by liberal Democrats. The list goes on and on but one thing stays the same; every program ever rolled out by liberals has become an utter failure. Why? Because liberals are measured only on intent, not results.
Government schools sure sound good; by and large they are complete and utter failures. School bussing was designed to force integration of schools yet virtually all inner city schools are segregated with an primarily black population whose minds are raped by the unaccountable teachers unions. Taxing the rich to pay for the poor may sound like a noble idea, but did you ever wonder why the rich are moving more and more money, jobs and businesses overseas? Unions were all about fairness until the jobs went to India and China. Yes, every liberal ideal is has proven to be a failure.
Now what? Bans on free speech, bans on guns, bans on Fox News, bans on transfats, bans on SUV’s, bans on fireplaces. Again, an endless list designed to limit your rights and your freedoms because liberals know that the only way to make despotism succeed is to keep the people down and uninformed. Of course, it looks like they are succeeding in that regard. Time to wake up…it’s 1763 all over again.
