Great quote. First heard it from David Horowitz.

Horowitz was quoting some fellow-traveler SDS member from the 60s. It is an excellent quote and explains why the left NEVER prescribes real solutions to anything except to BAN things. All they know is how to tear things down, never to build things up.
Red diaper baby David Horowitz is an expert on the mentality of the Radical Left. In his pamplet Barack Obama’s Rules for Revolution, (which I highly recommend, by the way) David makes the following point:
An SDS radical once wrote, “the issue is never the issue. The issue is always the revolution.” In other words, the cause-whether inner city blacks or women–is never the real cause, but only an occasion to advance the real cause, which is the accumulation of power to make the revolution.
