Who Really Runs Washington and Why Americans Lose on Every Issue
Right Side News ^ | December 14, 2008 | JB Williams

After decades of leftist efforts to convert America's representative republic into a pure democracy, where 51% can take away the rights of the other 49% for the greater common good, we find our nation on the verge of political and economic collapse.

It was the dream of men like Vladimir Lenin and Karl Marx, not Thomas Jefferson or John Adams, that one day the proletariat would control the nation's productivity in the United States, replacing evil capitalism with secular socialism and individual rights with a greater good of communal interests.

In 2008, the left gained full control of all three branches of the federal government and America may never again live in freedom. This column takes a look at how it happened and why average red-blooded Americans are no match for the collective power of the proletariat movement.

(snip)

70% of Americans oppose everything the left and the incoming Obama campaign stand for, according to all available polling data. But the 30% who support the current secular socialist movement spend five times more in pursuit of their agenda than the balance of America is willing to spend to defend their nation under siege.

“Workers of the world unite; you have nothing to lose but your chains.” - Karl Marx

Chains that people like Karl Marx put around them.

Good point!

This is what happens in the eleventh hour. We should have never allowed it to get to this point.

O’ course not... The bread crumbs are for everyone else. The spoils belong to the elitists in charge. Just ask Lenin or Stalin.

Can one make a blanket statement like that? Jefferson and Horace Mann supported public education in the early to mid 19th century. The Puritans had a form of public education. Do you think public libraries are socialistic to the core?

And of course they were funded by the federal Government and controlled by the teachers unions too

"70% of Americans oppose everything the left and the incoming Obama campaign stand for"

Dream on. This is delusional. He didn't get 52% of the vote through hypnotism. There are actual consequences for policy failure on the scale of years of stalement in Iraq or the bubble and stock market crash. "But it's not fair". Whining and $2.50 will get you a cup of coffee...

Tangetial? It's the core of the problem.

In those days the cirriculum was focused on actual learning, not indctrination.

Have you ever seen an 8th grade graduation test from the late 1800's?
