Liberalism: A Disease which Cannot be Cured with Socialized Medicine 
By Glenn Eno

Being a liberal means never having to defend a position. You simply talk over the top of your accusers; blaming them for feeling the way you do. You do not have to justify your position. It’s not your fault. Conservatives are the ones who allow big business to make profits. They don’t have compassion for the poor, the elderly, minorities, illegal immigrants, and the environment and (gasp) the children. You do love the children don’t you?

Academia is teaching our children that to be a good American you need to provide for those less fortunate than you. In earlier times if a family ran upon hard fortunes, members of the community would come together to assist these people. Churches, (yes shhhhh churches) would provide food, clothing and shelter to help community members through their temporary situation. Now people look to the government for long term solutions, ie: welfare. The United States social welfare system has become a career for an increasingly large segment of the population. The problem is now it has become career for politicians and government employees. Liberals have no more concern for poverty than they do for national defense. Liberals must keep citizens in poverty in order to keep enough of a voting block to remain relevant. They must keep blacks and Hispanics uneducated and poor. These minorities represent the largest emerging voting block in the United States. It is criminally insane that politicians would conspire to keep the group of people they champion as slaves and pawns in the continuing struggle for power.

The greed of liberalism is the mirror image of what they portray as the problems with a capitalistic society. If you want see into the soul of a liberal you must first understand that they have none. They are a shape shifter. They just meld into whatever position they must in order to capture the moment. This may mean they have to take a different position than they did the day before. This is not a problem for them. They will relentlessly attack whoever dares to point out any hypocrisy. Liberals are an educated people who must be able metamorphose into the caring, cultured person that will stand up to the greed of capitalism. This is the cornerstone of their true passion; the redistribution of wealth.

As more Americans become wealthy it is imperative to be able to claim more of their hard earned money. Middle income Americans must continue to work harder to prevent being swallowed into the tidal wave of entitlements. Liberals will try to convince you that the middle class in vanishing. There is a reason for this; it’s because this is true. Liberals are the root cause for this. Liberals are raising the bar of poverty to include more Americans. The recent bribe for the vote, also known as the economic stimulus package has drawn a definitive line in the sand between rich and poor. When liberals repeal the tax cuts enacted after the 2008 Presidential election, the definition of rich will be as follows: If you are a single person making 75,000.00 or married and making 150,000.00 you will now be in the bull’s-eye of tax increases. Any citizens below this line will be eligible for the money redistribution. This will be the death of the middle class. You will be either a have or a have not. The mere fact that the new "low class" represents about 75 percent of the registered voters increases the likelihood that the slaves will have to vote for their masters in order to keep receiving the free money from the rich. Republicans, not conservatives, will compromise with liberals in order to keep a seat at the table. The only difference between this and the slavery of the seventeen and eighteen hundreds is the modern day slaves are beholding to a financial master instead of a labor master. As more people are assimilated into this slavery, less Americans working and earning their money will have a say in the electoral process. Liberals will control the majority of voters but this will not be enough by itself. The second front on this war on capitalism comes in the judiciary. Liberals have filibustered conservative judges at every opportunity. If they are allowed to appoint like minded judges then the last defense against a socialistic society will be thwarted. If liberalism cannot be voted out or ruled unconstitutional then the impending civil war between capitalism and liberalism will begin. This will not be a black versus white, man versus woman or right versus left. This will be the battle between right versus wrong.

So many people are dependant on government today. They do not see the cancer growing in Washington. Career politicians with no agenda other than power are selling out the principles of personal freedom. They do not have to pay into Social Security therefore they will not fix it. They do not have to be concerned with term limits. There is nothing to check the advancement of liberalism, except the truth. Congressmen have become far removed from their constituency. There is no accountability because they can spend their way back into office. They spend the tax dollars of working Americans to buy votes from the slaves of politics.

In the 1930’s FDR started the move towards our present nanny state. Americans helping one another has been a staple of our compassion since the creation of our great nation. The New Deal introduced the government into the mix. After all, we had fought wars, created a democracy, freed slaves and expanded the borders of our country. We had done things no nation had ever accomplished. Surely we could provide for the less fortunate better than any country ever had. Through the years more and more people, some citizens, some not, have benefited from what they have seen as entitlements. We have given away money, food, healthcare, housing and heating fuel. Government programs have grown exponentially because the original plan to help the needy became a way of life for entire generations. The entitlement mentality was being passed on from mother to daughter. I’ve heard people say "It’s my tax dollars; I am entitled to get some of it back!" These same people were and are no longer paying income tax into the system. They are living off from the sweat of others. There is no incentive to do otherwise. Taxpayers just above the threshold are giving up their pride and slipping into this governmental formed slavery. I believe the next logical step for the liberals is to expand benefits into an untapped source: Americans should have the right to have a new car and to be able to fill it with fuel. I see the government signing a contract with their union friends to produce automobiles for Americans who cannot afford them. This benefit to liberals is twofold: it will increase the number of people enslaved to the government and it will serve as a bailout to the automotive union workers. Part two of this plan will be to provide gas cards to these people; fuel assistance for gasoline as well as heat. They can fund this through their new best friend, windfall profit taxes on oil companies. None of this will provide one penny of relief to what is left of the middle class. It would probably increase the price of a gallon of gas by 20%. Liberals never conceive a plan that doesn’t force Americans to bend over and grab their ankles. The worse part of this is weak kneed Republicans will quickly form their own give away plan to counter the "generosity" of their liberal partners, I mean counterparts.

My last opinion is to point out the "Liberals Against Progress, Diligently Opposing Growth Stimulus, or LAPDOGS. The LAPDOGS are members of congress who serve no purpose other than to destroy America and capitalism. The rank and file include, in no particular order:

• "UpChuck" Schumer- He must be the single most arrogant piece of crap in Washington. He no more cares about the average citizen than Hitler cared about a Jew. His sole purpose in Washington is to be an obstructionist to idea which is not his own. His condescending manner is only trumped by his total, unwavering IGNORANCE of what America stands for- Freedom and pursuit of happiness. Every time he sees a camera it is an opportunity for him to grandstand for America. He is a worthless, self-serving traitor to the people he claims to represent. He only represents his own sound bite. New York and America will be a better place the day he retires and ceases to undermine democracy. He has no redeeming qualities and in this forum, I cannot use the language needed to properly describe this hypocrite.
  
  
• Nancy Pelosi- Same crap, different office. Nancy, how are those illegal migrant workers doing at your winery?
  
  
• Bernie Sanders- Bernie has a special place in my heart. He was elected because the former congressman from Vermont lied to gun owners about supporting the second amendment. He has probably done more grandstanding than socialist in Washington. If not for the gaff of Peter Smith he may have never had the opportunity to get red in the face and pound his fist in a speech in the House of Representatives, which, as the camera panned out, was almost empty.
  
  
• Patrick Leahy- See: Chuck Schumer. If you could look up the phrase "we need term limits" in an encyclopedia there would be a picture of the senate intelligence committee leak source.
  
  
• Howard Dean- He became the governor of Vermont when Richard Snelling died in office. Howard the Coward saw such great events as civil unions and the economic socialist education plan called Act 60 occur on his watch. His "I have a scream" speech is Howie in a nutshell. He is an extremely arrogant, temperamental lit fuse. I’m glad America got to see the real Howard Dean.
  
  
• Harry Reid- The little engine who couldn’t. If you give a spineless, ignorant little man the equivalent of "open mike night" and tell him no one can physically assault him he will say anything. He accuses conservatives of corruption while doing his secret land deals. I believe he became irrelevant shortly after he no longer needed diapers- probably about the year 2002.
  
  
• Hillary Clinton- My god, she must be the unhappiest woman in America. Oh wait, she’s married to Bill. I don’t believe she has an honest bone in her body. She thinks she has a birth right to power, just like all liberals. She is wrong. The Clintons are what is wrong with politics today. Don’t go away mad, just go away.
  
  
• Barack Hussein Obama- I think if he could have waited until 2012 he could have used that time to polish the edges. He has absolutely no clue on how to answer a spontaneous question. His ability to read from a prepared statement is quite impressive. His ignorance of the issues screams every time he opens his mouth in any forum which he does not control. I’m glad we are finding this out before the election. If he had four more years he may have been able to go to the Bill Clinton school of how to avoid a question and never be asked why. His platform is now out in open and his agenda can be brought to light without him crying about the race card. He will play the race card either with Hillary before the convention or with McCain during the election.
