Sibelius Spills the Beans (Liberals have to constantly hide what they believe to get votes)
American Thinker ^ | 03/06/2012 | Tom Trinko

Liberals accuse conservatives of using secret signals that only conservatives can hear -- dog whistles -- to send racist messages. These accusations are in reality a reflection of what liberals think rather than accurate assessments of what conservatives are saying, like the pimpled teen who thinks that nearly everything is a dirty joke.

Liberals, on the other hand, constantly have to hide what they believe in order to get votes -- getting rid of blacks by making abortion easily available in minority neighborhoods and advocating socialism are not winning campaign positions these days. That's why almost every liberal runs for re-election as a conservative.

Fortunately, liberals are sufficiently un-self-aware as to let their true beliefs show through their verbiage on occasion -- an unconscious dog whistle, if you will.

Secretary Sebelius has stated that providing free contraception would reduce overall insurance costs because there would be fewer people for the insurance companies to pay for.

In doing so she provided insights, probably unwittingly, into how liberals think about Americans. Her statement is flawed from numerous perspectives, but let's look at just two.

First, she is assuming that the average American who would not be born if she has her way would burden society, not benefit it. She's saying that having more Americans is a bad idea, that people do not generate wealth, that we should be depressed over every legal immigrant and every new birth in America.

After all, if people cost more than they are worth, they are nothing but a burden, right? That has to be her reasoning; otherwise, why object to the birth of someone who will be a net contributor to society via years of taxes, and a future payee of health insurance premiums?

Liberals and Satan have the same goal, to convince people that they don’t really exist.

” ... and advocating socialism are not winning campaign positions these days.”

The writer of this article is out of touch. In today’s America, for people under 40, socialism is not only tolerated, it’s seen as a goal.

The more people in the USA the more the social pie has to be divided. The thoughts of a true socialist administration.

Anything built on lies eventually fails. The bigger the building the bigger the crash. In the end truth wins, always.

By that logic, so would Hitler's Final Solution

If you are in charge of redistributing wealth and you reduce the number of people with their hands out, you get to keep more for yourself!

Too often, conservatives fall into the trap of arguing with the left on the basis of their asserted issues instead of on their real underlying goals.

And the left has been extremely artful in demonizing and marginalizing as “kooks” anyone that actually points out their real goals.

Like you said, they have the same tactics as Satan. If you point out the reality of Satan, you’re characterized as a “religious kook”.
If you point out the reality that leftism is actually just Marxism/Communism, then you’re a “McCarthyite”.

Her “reasoning” starts with the assumption that some people are currently not using contraceptives because they’re not “free,” but would begin to use them under the new mandate. There is no reason to believe this is true.

The only obvious financial result is an increased cost for drugs or surgery to treat illness or injury.

The working middle class are the cows.
The communists are the very rich at the top that skim the cream and distribute enough skim milk to the lower classes to keep themselves in power.

Ah, the blatant contradictions of libtardism.

While subscribing to this dogma, they not only believe that every illegal alien with a good sob story should automatically be leapfrogged ahead of ever citizen and legal alien for college admissions, jobs and all the goodies society has to offer, they also believe these people are poster children as to why every gang banger and jihadi should naturally be included in every comprehensive immigration reform proposal to show our compassion.

Anybody ever heard Maldef, Mecha or La Raza agree to any exclusions? Well, maybe only if it is a white South African with genuine marketable skills in demand.

Where do you think this theory came from? It is copied from Nazi Germany.

Maybe she wants to be like China mandatory 2 child limit. But with the left you can abort if it is a worthless white male who we all know is evil.

Eugenics is a cornerstone of the progressive movement. Its proponents, like Margaret Sanger, believe that easy abortions for “undesireables” such as blacks and the mentally incompetent are needed if society’s going to prosper.

Google “progressive movement eugenics” sometime.
