A Speech Not Given

August 30, 2009

What’s in a name?

Liberal, Socialist, Progressive, Communist, Marxist… All these labels are other names for what they really are, collectivist.  And they are dangerous.

Why are collectivists dangerous?

They see the individual – YOU! – as an expendable servant to the supposed superior judgment of the government collective.

Collectivists kill the American Dream of becoming better off through ones own honest work because Collectivism makes everyone equally poor.

What weirdly twisted thing do all the following people have in common?

Karl Marx, Vladimir Lenin, Benito Mussolini, Adolph Hitler, Mao Tse Tung, Ho Chi Minh, Fidel Castro, Yaasar Arafat, Pol Pot, Osama Bin Laden, Saddam Hussein.

No, the answer is not their socialist bent.  That is too obvious.

They all believed they were “doing good” by their actions!

In 1983 I was privileged to have a Veteran of the Pacific Theater in WWII work for me.  He repeatedly pointed out, “I’d rather elect a crook than a do-gooder.”  At the time that seemed strange.  It no longer does.

The most dangerous government is one made up of do-gooder, crook, collectivists!  And that is exactly what our supposed “two” party system, along with a cooperative media, has put into power.

Do not be fooled into supporting government collective healthcare or health insurance to do good for the uninsured.

Do not be fooled into supporting carbon emission control schemes known as “cap and trade” to do good for the planet.

Do not be fooled into supporting unsecret union balloting known as “card check” to do good for the workers.

STAY VIGILANT!  SPEAK UP!  DO SO IN PERSON, IN THE MAIL, ON THE PHONE, AND IN E-MAIL! 

AND, MOST IMPORTANTLY, REMOVE THE DO-GOODERS FROM PUBLIC OFFICE AT EVERY OPPORTUNITY.
