I can remember my first Democratic Convention, I was around 4 years old. Adlai Stevenson was receiving the nomination and again four years later. I never saw a Republican Convention until Nixon, since my parents were strong Roosevelt Democrats. This strongly influenced my thinking until I started to see the oncoming disaster from, "The Great Societies" fallout.
We have only to look about us today to see what we are reaping from the seeds sown then.
Have we ended poverty as Johnson thought he could do? Has peace and harmony among the various diversities of our population been realized?
We are more polarized today that at any time I can remember. Sure Black Americans have more liberties, but their poverty scale is still a matter of record.
Who is to blame? It has got to be those fat cat "Neo Cons" a new buzzword that the Left and Democrats have conjured from their spell book. Still blaming big business and rich people it is they who are rich. Dollar for dollar, I would be willing to bet that Democrats are worth a lot more money than Republicans. Is there any doubt about Pelosi's wealth? Is there any doubt about Kennedy's wealth earned from his daddy's bootlegging business. Is there any doubt about the wealth of Jay Rockefeller yet they say tax the rich. Ok, I ask why you rich democrats take your deductions. You do not have to, it is not law to take deductions. it is an illegal law that says we have to pay an income tax all started by Democrats.
I digress, upon my epiphany that the left wished to destroy the American dream and keep the wealth in the hands of but a few skinflints like David and Jay Rockefeller just for starters.
I see the fight getting increasingly bitter as the left tried to silence the right. Tries to raise taxes and stifle incentive in this great country all in the name of "The New World Order."
Join with all conservative voices and me in standing up for the Constitution. Do not let them steal our liberty.
