Opaque Lucidity

Child of the Left

I find it hard to discuss OJ Simpson in light of the fact the nation is at war, Iran is working on nuclear weapons, the Fed lowered interest rates today, and there's still no cure for most types of cancer. Suffice it to say I hope he ends up in prison and someone puts a shiv through his neck. Clear? Clear.

Police tasered a college student who tried to disrupt a John Kerry event in Florida today. I'm sure there are those of you who will talk about freedom of speech, but disorderly conduct and resisting arrest are both punishable by law in most places. But what's more important than a discussion of the First Amendment is what a demonstration like this really says about the Democrats, liberalism and who is actually running the show on the Left.

The fact that none of the Democratic Presidential candidates clearly criticized the moveon.org ad in the New York Times should tell you all you need to know: the Democrats and their party are now a wholly owned subsidiary of a George Soros-funded political organization (you didn't think moveon.org was really a grassroots thing, did you?). While many Democrats are waaaayyyy to the right of the likes of Cindy Sheehan and the weak-willed sisters who do "die-ins" on the Capital steps, they are no longer the focus of their party's energies. Instead, the Dems fight for the votes of the ne'er-do-well socialist crowd and the overgrown children without minds who seem to inhabit college campuses these days. The blue-collar, pro-union Democrat party is dead, replaced by Karl Marx in a dress.

Unfortunately, I believe the Dems stand a very, very good chance of winning in 2008. If you love the Looney Left now, wait until they're in power. To those of you who have voted for every Democrat since Roosevelt, I ask: is this still your party? Or are you too stupid to notice?
