Yesterday 8/28/2010, I attended the Glenn Beck Restoring America Rally at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, DC. It was very well attended. I am not an expert at determining crowd size, but my best guesstimate was that the attendance was about 250,000 to 300,000. Some reports claim that there were up to 700,000 attendees, and one news source claimed 87,000. I’ll stick with my original estimate.
This was not a political rally. It was about celebrating the greatness of this country, and a cry to return us to the principles that made this country great. Another purpose of the rally was to raise money for the Special Operations Warrior Foundation. The event raised over $5 million dollars for this noble cause. The mission statement of the Special Operations Warrior Foundation states: "The Special Operations Warrior Foundation provides full scholarship grants and educational and family counseling to the surviving children of special operations personnel who die in operational or training missions and immediate financial assistance to severely wounded special operations personnel and their families."
It was a very emotional event for a lot of people. Many of those in attendance had lost family members who were serving their country in the US Military. I’d say that about 3/4 of the people that I talked to either had served in the military, or had a family member that either served or currently serves their country. As I was walking around, I came upon a group of ladies sitting together in the shade under a tree. Some appeared to be in their late 30s or early 40s, and some appeared to be in the 50s, 60s, and 70s. They all had one thing in common. They all wore a rectangular pin that had a red border, cream background, and right in the middle, a gold star. They were members of the Gold Star Mothers, an organization of women who have lost sons or daughters in action.
There was many a tear shed as the various speakers gave accounts of how members of their families had been killed in action, and how the SOWF had helped them by making sure that their children or grandchildren had enough money to earn a college degree. Recipients receive scholarship grants, not student loans. Radio and television personality, Glenn Beck, hosted the event. Other notable speakers included former Alaskan Governor Sarah Palin, who was there speaking as a mother of a son serving overseas in a combat position, not as a politician. Dr. Alveda King, the niece of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., also was a featured speaker. It was hot, crowded, and rewarding.
The only drawback that I saw was the lack of attendance of minorities. Others noticed that too, and expressed their regret. Every single person I talked to, and there were many, showed absolutely no racist tendencies at all. All of us would have loved having a large contingency of Black Americans and Hispanic Americans joining us. There were some, but not a whole lot. I have no idea why. Maybe they were told not to attend. Maybe they thought that they wouldn’t be welcome. If that was the case, they were 100% wrong.
I did not attend the counter rally sponsored by the Reverend Al Sharpton, who bitterly complained that Beck’s rally, on the 47th anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King’s "I Have A Dream" event on the same Lincoln Memorial steps, was a denigration of Dr. King’s legacy. I have news for Reverend Sharpton. There was no denigration at all. In fact, Dr. King’s legacy and greatness was addressed by speakers and approvingly recognized by the mostly white participants. From what I saw, those so insultingly called by the Liberal Elites and their minions, the "little people," the ones that out of "desperation cling to their guns and religion" at this gathering, showed not signs, covert or overt, of racism, if there was any at all in the first place. Have Reverend Sharpton and his followers? How much money did the grievance industry make this year? What was your cut of the action Reverend Sharpton?
I felt good about what I saw. I came away with a sense of hope and rejuvenation. Does this mean that I’m going to become a religious fanatic or something of the sort? No. I’m going to still go through life as a relatively spiritual person who, even though I was raised Roman Catholic and still loves the rituals of the traditional church, does not really practice a religion at this time in my life.
I will say this. If people attending this rally were but a microcosm of a much larger group of similar minded folks, we have a great future ahead of us…provided that people like this can become the dynamic majority force leading this country again. I think that the "Silent Majority" has been asleep at the switch for too long. This and the Tea Party movement may be the waking of the sleeping giant. I hope so.

Comeuppance
One thing that I’ve noticed over the years that I’ve been a musician. When you play in a club in the city, your audience is primarily made up of college educated professionals. They may have a wide range of income brackets. They share, however, one common trait: They despise those that they consider inferior, and for the most part those that they consider inferior, happen to be working class and lower middle class whites, and anyone who happens to be a Conservative. These Leftist spoiled brats, many of whom have a gold plated Ivy League college education and then some thanks to Daddy’s money, feel it is their birthright to be America’s ruling class. They also know deep inside that the only way that they will become America’s nobility, with a chance of rising up from there to America’s monarchy, is if they can orchestrate the destruction of the American Capitalist system, and replace it with a Socialist dictatorship. Despite what these cretins claim, it’s not about "fairness." It’s about Totalitarian control over the masses for the "common good."
I grew up in a different time than these cosmopolitans. My parents were from the so called, "Greatest Generation." My late father was born in 1917, and served in the Army Air Corps during WWII. My mother, still alive today, was born in 1920. Both of them grew up during the Great Depression, and the sacrifices they had to endure, put an indelible stamp on their personas. I was not given a "Progressive" upbringing like most of these current spoiled urban professional types. I was not brought up believing that I was special. Self-esteem was something that had to be earned. I think my generation was the last generation that was taught that there are winners and losers, and sometimes you are going to be the loser. Suck it up, and get on with your life. However, starting in the early 1960s there was a change in focus in our public education system. The education system’s policies slowly morphed from strict discipline (teachers could still spank you in front of the whole class), and tough academic standards, to a more value based education system that emphasized self-esteem over difficult subject matter. It was a process that was put into place to make sure that a small group of individuals would receive a quality education with lots of ego boosts, and that the rest of society would be "dumbed down" into a servant class.
These twenty-something, thirty-something, and forty-something egotists think they are special, because their entire life they have been told that they are special. Here they are with their advanced college degrees seething at the fact that they are not yet the plantation owners—and like lemmings falling off of a cliff, they all spout the same broken record rhetoric: It’s all George Bush’s and the Republicans fault. While they won’t admit it, they are jealous of anyone else’s success. They can’t stand the fact that some vulgar low class businessman, who makes several million dollars per year owning three or four McDonald’s franchises, makes more money than they do working for some non-profit, foundation, or in the education indoctrination industry. They want a Socialist command and control economy where no one with less education than they do will become more successful than they are. They are, after all, entitled to that success, simply do to the fact that they breathe air. Capitalism allows those that work hard and are innovative the chance to become wealthy. This aggravates the Elite Left to no end. It’s contrary to their egocentric worldview.
Karl Marx called for a rising up of the Proletariat to overthrow the Capitalist class Bourgeoisie. However, the Proletariat accepted, and joined the Capitalist class in order to get their own piece of the pie. After that, the game plan was to advance Communism through a long march through the culture institutions and a subsequent collateral brainwashing through the education system. What has transpired is a new Bourgeoisie of information age professionals, educators, public policy wonks, unionized public sector employees, etc. They have a problem however, the Proletariat, the working class and lower middle class who are sick and tired of being pandered to and insulted, have finally said enough is enough. There is going to be a huge backlash against the Progressives/Communists/Socialists (PCS)…whatever you want to call them in November. If the PCS manage to commit enough election fraud to squelch the will of the majority of the American Proletariat, I’m afraid that things could get real ugly. Marx may get his wish. There very well could be a rising up of the Proletariat to overthrow the Bourgeoisie. I’m not condoning this, but it is a distinct possibility if the "little people" have had enough. We’ll see what happens…

This November
Let’s face it. It doesn’t matter how much anger the American people can muster between now and the November election. It’s going to be impossible to completely reverse the damage to this country that the Obama administration has fostered on us. OK hippies, I’ll give you one. George W. Bush and his "compassionate conservatism" bullshit didn’t help either. I’ll give you another one. Bill Clinton, for the most part except for his management of the military, actually did a decent job as president. But let’s get back to the subject at hand. Even if the Republicans achieve veto proof control of the House, it’s going to be meaningless unless they get veto proof control of the Senate as well. That is impossible. Only one third of the Senate is up for election in November. There is no way that the Republicans can get a two thirds majority in the Senate, even if they win every single seat that is up for election. The numbers are not there. So what can be done? Here are a few things that the American people can do in order to bring this country back slowly from the Socialist abyss that it is spiraling into at record speed:
Number one, Never, never, never, never again, vote another George W. Bush into office as President of the United States. If you want a RINO or a Liberal Republican, look for a classic New England Republican or a Rockefeller Republican. There is a big difference in mindset between a New England or Rockefeller Republican and a George W. Bush Liberal Republican. First of all, the NE or RR Republican takes a strong conservative approach to fiscal matters, and basically considers most social issues, like abortion and gay marriage, as being between a person and their conscience. George W. Bush was more interested in social issues than he was about fiscal responsibility, because he felt that he was beholden to the Religious Right. However as a side note, I will give him credit for this: The US economy didn’t collapse after the attack on 9-11, and it could have very easily. Putting it in perspective, it’s the difference between Episcopalians and Southern Baptists. I am not criticizing either religion. I’m just pointing out a difference in ideology. If you are going to bring the younger voters over to the Republican camp, you are going to have to downplay the social issues. People under forty-five today, are not living in the prude era of the 1950s. They weren’t raised that way. You can debate all you want about the benefits and problems caused by the cultural revolution of the 1960s, but the results are here to stay.
The WW II generation spoiled the hell out of the baby boomers, who then neglected Generation X, which then doted, hovered and overprotected the Millennials. This pampered generation is now of voting age, and they consider Socialism to be a good thing. They have been well indoctrinated by our Marxist controlled education system, as were their parents. The Communists started working on their grandparents in the 1960s and early 1970s, and have sowed seeds that need to be uprooted and destroyed once and for all.
Next, the Right needs to grow some balls and start kicking ass and taking names. No more Mr. Nice Guy. The Democrats, who are now nothing but anti-Capitalist Socialists and Marxists, walked all over the Republicans during the 2006 and 2008 elections. The reason for this is the American people perceived the Republicans as a bunch of wimps. We need hard ass candidates like Chris Christie of New Jersey and not wimps that won’t defend themselves like George Bush. That being said, we need to take the Left’s weapons and turn them back on them with no mercy. No more being ladies and gentlemen when we are confronting the Left. We have to expose them for what they are–anti-American Marxists that are hell bent on destroying this great nation for their benefit. Their benefit? Yes. Under Socialism there is always a highly educated ruling class, a nobility have you, that lives quite well off of the "largesse" of the less educated working class and poor while pretending to have compassion for those less fortunate. It’s all a smoke screen. Highly educated Elites, Bobos as New York Times columnist David Brooks calls them, have nothing but scorn and contempt for those that they consider lesser human beings. Have any of the social programs that the Left has advanced worked? Of course not. They were designed to create dependency and to make the Liberals feel good about them selves, while they made money in the process. Liberals need to be shown over and over again as the whores that they truly are.
Finally, it’s time for Conservatives and Republicans to sit down and read the bible of the Left: Saul Alinsky’s "Rules For Radicals". They need to use Alinsky’s tactics, which were designed to foster a Left Wing take down of the United States of America. The most important tactic according to Alinsky is ridicule, because it is almost impossible to defend against without looking weak. In another words, throw it back in their face. Remember the smug arrogant Liberal Elites constant attack on George Bush as being stupid? The implication was also that anyone who voted for Bush, or any Republican for that matter, was stupid. So what should the Right do? The Right needs to constantly show the Liberals for the hypocritical, weak, phonies that they are, and constantly rub their noses in their own shit. The more they throw their child-like temper tantrums, the more you rub. No, the Right won’t look like bullies. People are fed up with the Left right now. Exposing them for what they are, and driving them to their therapists en masse will be fun to watch.
It’s going to take time to reverse the course that the Left has taken this country over the past one hundred years, culminating with the election of the first Marxist president, Barack Obama. It’s not going to be easy, and it’s going to involve a lot of confrontation. There are going to be some show downs, and the Right has to make sure that it is in a position to win those show downs by a huge margin of victory.

McChrystal "Resignation"
President Obama has accepted the resignation of General Stanley McChrystal, who in my opinion had a major league lapse of judgement when he and his staff criticized the civilian leadership of the United States Military, and their policies concerning the war in Afghanistan. I was in the military for 26 years, and it is a violation of the Uniformed Code of Military Justice (88 USC) to do so. Its called insubordination, which is a court martial offense. Now there has only been one military member ever court marshaled for under 88 USC, and that was in the 1950s. It's very unlikely that General McChrystal will meet the same fate. However, the president was 100% right to relieve him of his command and show him to the door.
I have mixed feelings about McChrystal. He is a great general and an expert at counter-insurgency. However, it's his rules of engagement that put the lives of Afghani civilians over the lives of American and Coalition forces that I don't agree with. If you are going to fight a goddamn war, fight the goddamn thing. Do what we did during World War II. We put the moral blame on the enemy for the death of their civilians, and we kicked serious ass, until we completely broke the enemy both in means and in spirit. This is what needs to be done to our enemies in the Middle East.
There is an upside to this unfortunate chain of events. General McChrystal can now apply for retirement. That can take about 60 days. After that time, he would be able to run his mouth every chance he got. Maybe we will see him every day on Fox News tearing the administration a new asshole. Let's see...starting in September and the election being in November...that's just about the right amount of time to turn the majority of Americans against Congress and the current administration and its policies. This could get quite interesting...More to follow...

The Cat Is Out Of The Bag
I was at a gathering over the Memorial Day weekend that was populated mostly by college educated professionals. During this event, I overheard an interesting political conversation. During the course of the conversation, a man told a lady about how both his parents had been dyed in the wool Communists. The lady practically knelt in front of him in awe, and said something to the effect about how that must have been wonderful, and how he must be pleased to no end about the current transformation of this country, and how the uneducated masses were finally going to be put in their place once and for all. I was shocked. I realize that college educated professionals, for the most part, tend to be liberal. Socialist policies benefit their pocket books at the expense of the working classes that they despise. Control the masses. For them, it's not about economic issues of "fairness." It's about arrogance and a drive for power while creating a "slave" class subservient to them. However, it starting to become very clear that this was not an isolated incident.
Keep your ears open when you are in Liberal enclaves. This is the mindset of a large percentage of the people that live in Montgomery County, Maryland, or as some of us refer to it as, The People's Republic Of Montgomery County, where these people live. It's not just limited to the Marxist radicals that populate what I call the Democratic People's Republic Of Takoma Park either. What is scary, is the fact that I know both of these people, and didn't realize that they were either part of, or "Fellow Travellers" in the Marxist remake of the United States of America. I just thought that they were typical fairly highly educated professional class Liberals. Let's face it folks, it's these Mandarins that are driving the bus that is moving the United States of America into a Socialist or Fascist (Fascism is Left Wing not a Right Wing. Do your homework idiots) ideology that benefits them and them only.
There is really a strong Communist movement in the United States that was the power behind the scenes that got Obama elected, and they are now in the drivers seat turning this great country into a Marxist dictatorship that will benefit them at the rest of our expense. Obama was installed into the presidency in order to be the closer, bringing to fruition the Socialist/Communist/Progressive coup that has been in the works since the time of the French Revolution. The leftists have been working on destroying this country for two centuries, and in earnest since the early 1900s with the biggest push happening in the 1960s.
In order to put it into perspective, let's look at the famous quote famous quote from George Orwell's book Animal Farm: "All animals are created equal, but some animals are created more equal than others." This is the mindset of the Left in a nutshell. The middle class and the poor must become equally poor so that they can be controlled. Then those that are "more equal than others," the educated ruling class, will keep the little people under their thumb for the common good. It is SOP in any Socialist country from the Democratic Socialism governments of places like Sweden, Germany, and Denmark, to the totalitarian Communist dictatorships of the former Soviet Union, Cuba, Venezuela and China. You have a very wealthy ruling class, followed by a highly educated and protected upper middle class, and then you have everyone else who is poor. Here in the United States it is a byproduct of the advancement of the move toward a Meritocracy.
There was a time when the ruling class in this country was made up of legacy old money families and industrial tycoons. Beginning in the late 1950s, the shift started toward merit rather than legacy. However, it went way too far. The division in this country is now between those that work with their hands and those that work with their brains. Blue collar versus white collar. Here in the Washington, DC area you can call it Montgomery County versus Prince George's County. By Prince George's County I mean the Prince George's County WHITE working class, not the PG County black middle class and black lower classes. The Mandarins of Montgomery County need the PG County blacks; rich, middle class, and poor, as their allies in order to attack and take down the white, marginally educated by today's standards, lower middle class and working class...in another words, the so called, "Rednecks," who just don't seem to want to get with the program. They have to be forced into obedience, and the best way to do it is through their pocket book.
Historically, this is typical. Beginning when the United States was starting to become colonized in 1608, the majority of slaves in this country were white....Yes I know, that's not the narrative that is taught in the indoctrination centers that are our schools. No, they weren't indentured servants polishing the master's silver and making the master's bed; they were slaves. Do some research and your homework. I'm not going to do it for you. Go "Google" white slavery in America.
Highly educated elitist Mandarins are now the new masters on the plantation. Their goal is to drive working class white America down into a servant class. This is just one step toward creating a world government with a ruling class and everyone else. Most of that class of "everyone else" will need to be eliminated, because it will become too expensive to keep them fed and clothed.
Why do you think that upper middle class and wealthy Liberals want food to be more expensive, utilities to skyrocket, and the price of gasoline to become so expensive that the masses can not afford these things? It's about control. When you can not afford to keep your small single family home in the suburbs due to the cost of utilities and taxes, you will be forced into "climate controlled" ghettos controlled by the Liberal Elites. What you eat will be determined by what you can afford, and since you won't be able to afford much, hunger and starvation can be used as a great motivation tool to get you to behave yourself. Why do you think that there is such a push for making more food organic? It's not about organic food being healthier. It's about organic food being more expensive, so that the "little people" will either have to eat less or have to use food stamps in order to survive. This is why I generally refuse to eat organic food.
When gasoline reaches $6 per gallon, most of the "little people" won't be able to afford to drive. They will be forced to take public transportation from their little apartment in the ghetto to their meager government job, while the Elites get to tool down the Beltway in their hybrids and SUVs (SUV for me but not for thee), uninhibited by traffic jams filled with drivers from the unwashed masses.
There is one little problem though. Marx predicted that there would be a rising up of the Proletariat against the Bourgeoisie. Back then the Bourgeoisie was the upper middle class and wealthy that made their money in hard industry. The fly in the ointment for Marx, was the Proletariat discovered Capitalism, joined the party, and became the Middle Class. Many of them became small business owners. Some of the small businesses became huge corporations, and the higher ups of those corporations became extremely wealthy. For the others, this Middle Class, through hard work, was able to earn themselves a little piece of the American Dream; A small home in the suburbs with a yard, good public schools, a college education for their children, a chance to prosper while owning their own mom and pop small business, ample food, and occasionally some luxuries. This infuriated and continues to infuriate the Left. Something had to be done. What followed was a slow march through the culture that was based on the writings of the Italian Communist Antonio Gramschi, and the Cultural Marxists of the German Frankfurt School.
Bypassing a ruling class of industrial Bourgeoisie, there emerged a cultural ruling class of academic and information age Bourgeoisie, who are now in charge and ready to take down the working classes for their benefit. The problem however, is the Proletariat are rising up, just as Marx predicted. A symptom of this are the Tea Parties.
The Tea Parties and their demonstrations are just the tip of the iceberg. Seething beneath the surface is a similar group reminiscent of the Silent Majority of the Nixon era. This group realizes the mistakes the Silent Majority made; one mistake that was made was not being proactive and always playing defense against the Left, rather than offence. Consequently, you now have at least two generations of "useful idiots" that were slowly indoctrinated into believing in Socialism by an education system that is controlled by anti-American, anti-Capitalist Marxists. You have a government ripe with Socialists that the educated classes want to keep in power for the benefit of the educated classes. Soon we are going to have class warfare in this country, but the war won't be the "little people" against the so called evil corporations. The war will be the "little people" against the sanctimonious, highly educated Marxist elitists that are emerging as America's new ruling class...a ruling class with no class, by the way. Yes, it's going to be the Proletariat rising up against the Bourgeoise. Hey Liberals, you are going to get what you deserve, and I can't wait. I'm just hoping that the Conservatives have enough balls this time to finally throw Marxism onto the ash heap of history where it belongs.
Keep your ears open when you are in Liberal enclaves. This is the mindset of a large percentage of the people that live in Montgomery County, Maryland, or as some of us refer to it as, The People's Republic Of Montgomery County, where these people live. It's not just limited to the Marxist radicals that populate what I call the Democratic People's Republic Of Takoma Park either. What is scary, is the fact that I know both of these people, and didn't realize that they were either part of, or "Fellow Travellers" in the Marxist remake of the United States of America. I just thought that they were typical fairly highly educated professional class Liberals. Let's face it folks, it's these Mandarins that are driving the bus that is moving the United States of America into a Socialist or Fascist (Fascism is Left Wing not a Right Wing. Do your homework idiots) ideology that benefits them and them only.
There is really a strong Communist movement in the United States that was the power behind the scenes that got Obama elected, and they are now in the drivers seat turning this great country into a Marxist dictatorship that will benefit them at the rest of our expense. Obama was installed into the presidency in order to be the closer, bringing to fruition the Socialist/Communist/Progressive coup that has been in the works since the time of the French Revolution. The leftists have been working on destroying this country for two centuries, and in earnest since the early 1900s with the biggest push happening in the 1960s.
In order to put it into perspective, let's look at the famous quote famous quote from George Orwell's book Animal Farm: "All animals are created equal, but some animals are created more equal than others." This is the mindset of the Left in a nutshell. The middle class and the poor must become equally poor so that they can be controlled. Then those that are "more equal than others," the educated ruling class, will keep the little people under their thumb for the common good. It is SOP in any Socialist country from the Democratic Socialism governments of places like Sweden, Germany, and Denmark, to the totalitarian Communist dictatorships of the former Soviet Union, Cuba, Venezuela and China. You have a very wealthy ruling class, followed by a highly educated and protected upper middle class, and then you have everyone else who is poor. Here in the United States it is a byproduct of the advancement of the move toward a Meritocracy.
There was a time when the ruling class in this country was made up of legacy old money families and industrial tycoons. Beginning in the late 1950s, the shift started toward merit rather than legacy. However, it went way too far. The division in this country is now between those that work with their hands and those that work with their brains. Blue collar versus white collar. Here in the Washington, DC area you can call it Montgomery County versus Prince George's County. By Prince George's County I mean the Prince George's County WHITE working class, not the PG County black middle class and black lower classes. The Mandarins of Montgomery County need the PG County blacks; rich, middle class, and poor, as their allies in order to attack and take down the white, marginally educated by today's standards, lower middle class and working class...in another words, the so called, "Rednecks," who just don't seem to want to get with the program. They have to be forced into obedience, and the best way to do it is through their pocket book.
Historically, this is typical. Beginning when the United States was starting to become colonized in 1608, the majority of slaves in this country were white....Yes I know, that's not the narrative that is taught in the indoctrination centers that are our schools. No, they weren't indentured servants polishing the master's silver and making the master's bed; they were slaves. Do some research and your homework. I'm not going to do it for you. Go "Google" white slavery in America.
Highly educated elitist Mandarins are now the new masters on the plantation. Their goal is to drive working class white America down into a servant class. This is just one step toward creating a world government with a ruling class and everyone else. Most of that class of "everyone else" will need to be eliminated, because it will become too expensive to keep them fed and clothed.
Why do you think that upper middle class and wealthy Liberals want food to be more expensive, utilities to skyrocket, and the price of gasoline to become so expensive that the masses can not afford these things? It's about control. When you can not afford to keep your small single family home in the suburbs due to the cost of utilities and taxes, you will be forced into "climate controlled" ghettos controlled by the Liberal Elites. What you eat will be determined by what you can afford, and since you won't be able to afford much, hunger and starvation can be used as a great motivation tool to get you to behave yourself. Why do you think that there is such a push for making more food organic? It's not about organic food being healthier. It's about organic food being more expensive, so that the "little people" will either have to eat less or have to use food stamps in order to survive. This is why I generally refuse to eat organic food.
When gasoline reaches $6 per gallon, most of the "little people" won't be able to afford to drive. They will be forced to take public transportation from their little apartment in the ghetto to their meager government job, while the Elites get to tool down the Beltway in their hybrids and SUVs (SUV for me but not for thee), uninhibited by traffic jams filled with drivers from the unwashed masses.
There is one little problem though. Marx predicted that there would be a rising up of the Proletariat against the Bourgeoisie. Back then the Bourgeoisie was the upper middle class and wealthy that made their money in hard industry. The fly in the ointment for Marx, was the Proletariat discovered Capitalism, joined the party, and became the Middle Class. Many of them became small business owners. Some of the small businesses became huge corporations, and the higher ups of those corporations became extremely wealthy. For the others, this Middle Class, through hard work, was able to earn themselves a little piece of the American Dream; A small home in the suburbs with a yard, good public schools, a college education for their children, a chance to prosper while owning their own mom and pop small business, ample food, and occasionally some luxuries. This infuriated and continues to infuriate the Left. Something had to be done. What followed was a slow march through the culture that was based on the writings of the Italian Communist Antonio Gramschi, and the Cultural Marxists of the German Frankfurt School.
Bypassing a ruling class of industrial Bourgeoisie, there emerged a cultural ruling class of academic and information age Bourgeoisie, who are now in charge and ready to take down the working classes for their benefit. The problem however, is the Proletariat are rising up, just as Marx predicted. A symptom of this are the Tea Parties.
The Tea Parties and their demonstrations are just the tip of the iceberg. Seething beneath the surface is a similar group reminiscent of the Silent Majority of the Nixon era.

Immigration Outrage
OK, so the president of Mexico comes to this country, stands before a joint session of Congress, and lectures us on our immigration policy? WTF? Even more outrageous was watching the Democrats applauding his every criticism. President Calderon, why don't you do some economic development in your country instead of sending your unemployed north of the border? I'm sure there are plenty of American companies that will be willing to help you out. Oh that's right. That would be all about evil capitalist big corporations taking advantage of the cheap labor supplied by "little brown people." It goes against the Socialist model.
Let's finally expose the real reasons that Liberals want as many illegals in this country as possible. The first one is what they accuse the Republicans and big business of wanting, and that is cheap labor. This is true. Every business out there looks at ways to reduce labor costs. However, the liberals want cheap labor, because they want to destroy the working class economy in this country. It's part of the move toward a one world government run by those "Citizen of the World" Liberal, Marxist, Elites. Upper middle class Socialist Elites can not stand the fact that someone with less education than they have can make more money than they do, and can afford to own property. They are the serfs who should be living in the projects. There is also a collateral reason for reducing the incomes of the working classes and lower middle class tradesmen. It means cheaper goods and services for them. If you depress wages with illegal foreign workers, you can hire nannies, gardeners and maids for pennies on the dollar by paying them under the table. That means that the middle class hippie Marxists that live in places like Takoma Park, Maryland can have a lifestyle more along the line of those that live in Potomac, Maryland. After all, they are the anointed ones. They just don't make the incomes that the upper reaches of the other members of the Mandarin caste make. In fact if you depress wages world-wide, you can have an unlimited supply of cheap labor to wipe your offsprings' asses while you play tennis at the community center. Do they make Birkenstock tennis shoes for Communists?
Also, they want cheap votes from an ever expanding underclass that is funded by the tax dollars of the hard working non-elites sectors of the middle class and working classes; unless you are a member of a minority group. Then you can be exempted from those taxes as long as you vote for the Marxist Liberals. The more the merrier.
So when are the Average Americans going to finally say enough is enough, and throw the bums out? I hope that it happens this November. Also, this time if the conservatives get control of the government again, they have to stop being so nice. You can't appease or negotiate with the those that wish to destroy this country. You have to deal with them once and for all. It's time for the gloves to come off.

Government Of The Elites, By The Elites, For The Elites
As the great philosopher Confucius said, "May you live in interesting times," and yes we do (or is that "Yes We Can"?) Never in my lifetime did I ever expect to see what is happening in this country today; there is a De-facto civil war between a mandarin class who says, "Yes We Can," who wants to control you for your own and the common good, and the rest of us who say, "No You Won't." Actually, using the term "class" is a misnomer. What I should have said is "caste." We are witnessing the final stages of the establishment of a caste system in America that began with the Progressive Movement in this country in the late 1800s and early 1900s. If you study history you can follow this phenomenon back to ancient times. During the time of the Roman Empire the mandarins were the patricians. In ancient Greece they were the oligarchs. How about the French aristocracy? Remember Marie Antoinette's comment about the peasants cry for bread, "let them eat cake." What about the English gentry? Mix these all together into one big stinking pot of elitism, and you have the American mandarin ruling class of self-important "Progressive" elites who are now in the process of establishing a feudal socialist society here in America ruled by scornful, jealous, elitist, highly educated, self-serving, Fascist "Progressives." Sorry hippies, Fascism is a left wing ideology not a right wing one. Both Hitler and Mussolini were avid students and believers in the teachings and beliefs of Kark Marx and Fredrich Engles. Go do your homework for a change and stop listening to the useful idiots and fellow travellers riding the bus driven by good old Uncle Joe...as in Josef Stalin. That mass murderer, by the way who starved to death over 20 million of his own people, was able to pull off the greatest public relations stunt in history. Stalin was able to deliver the Big Lie that Fascism was right wing rather than left wing. However, if you useful idiots do a little research, you'll see that it's just the opposite. What's that you say? You don't have time for such trivial matters. OK, go back to your iTunes and trying to find a way to make as much money as possible, while you do as little work as possible. After all, you are entitled to what is mine, at least in your spoiled sanctimonius minds. Aren't you just so special...
How do you become part of the Mandarin ruling caste? It's easy. Just be a highly educated liberal who believes that rest of America, especially those that earn their livelihood through manual labor are scum. It's the fashionable thing to do. The higher up the mandarin caste you go, the more liberal you are expected to be. Highly educated conservatives need not apply.
It's not about economics. A high school drop out who owns, heaven forbid, five McDonald's franchises and makes twenty million dollars per year will never be a member of the mandarin caste. In fact, he will be despised by the mandarin class. It's about education level in "certain" fields coupled with the "correct" ideology and world view. You have to hate Capitalism and love Socialism. You want Socialism in order to perpetuate the status quo. Your status quo. You climbed the ladder, and then you pulled the ladder up after you, so that the unwashed scum can never reach you on your high and mighty perch. Granted, most of the members of the mandarin caste are well educated and therefore make fairly decent incomes. In our service oriented economy, those with more education will make more money than those that don't. Lawyers make more money than clerks at WalMart . In government employment, you have to have a college degree in order to draw GS-13 or above pay, no matter what the job. The left wants to establish this caste in the private sector too. That way we can be like Europe, and have a command and control economy where your income is controlled by the government no matter what industry you work in. The problem, however, is the entrepreneur . Unlike in Europe where most small business owners and tradesmen make less than a school teacher, in our capitalistic economy that high school graduate or dropout who owns, heaven forbid, a couple of fast food franchises or an auto parts store, is going to make a lot more money than that teacher with a Masters Degree. So will an established mechanic, plumber or electrician. That drives the mandarins crazy. It's not fair.
Teaching is a mandarin profession despite its lower pay on the average from other mandarin occupations like law and being a public relations director. So is being a social worker or working for a non-profit. None of those occupations are upper middle class, yet they are mandarin, because they fit into the Socialist master plan. The small business owner is not a mandarin, and let's face it, there is a jealousy factor in place here. The mandarins on the Left can not stand the fact that the working class and lower middle class here in the United States can afford property, air conditioning, cable TV, ample food, vacations, and/or a college education for their children. These things should only be available for the mandarin Marxist Elites that know what is better for us than us. When people actually have disposable income, they are less likely to be able to be controlled by the mandarin Elite class that thrives on power, and the Left is doing everything in its power to change that. Only the educated elites should own property, have enough to eat (hunger is a great motivator to make you shut up and do as you are told), have quality leisure time, and have access to higher education.
The mandarin caste is attempting to create a society here in America that is similar to what is reality in Western Europe. Go to France, Italy, Spain, Greece, Belgium and England. You see an awful lot of poor middle class people. You have your titled aristocracy and your super wealthy. You have your highly educated professional upper middle class who live quite well. You then have your lower middle class and working class tradesmen and factory workers who live about one notch above where a ghetto welfare recipient lives here in the United States.
The problem for the elites is this: This is America. We have a large independent middle class. Middle America despises elitism and condescension. Consequently, the "peasants" are revolting, and revolting doesn't mean the Left's definition of revolting (i.e. disgusting). It means the little people are getting really pissed off and are ready for their own version of "Hope and Change." Let's hope that things start going back to normal after the November elections...and let's hope that the Republicans finally get the message and start running candidates that can win. That also means that in 2012, you don't run another George W. Bush. The Republicans need to run a young, articulate, dynamic candidate for president who can connect with the young people who stupidly voted against their best interest for the "messiah" who promised them all sorts of free stuff paid for by someone else. That candidate needs to show them in very plain English just how dangerous Obama is to the future of the young people trying to enter the job market, raise a family, and achieve their part of the American Dream.
Once the young people and the non-government, non-SEIU, non-big labor middle class is back on board and conservatives are back in power, it's going to be time, finally, to take the Socialists, Communists, and "Progressives" down once and for all. The Right needs to grow some backbone and go toe to toe with the Left...and never back down again. No more wimps. No more Mr. Nice Guy. This time it's got to be serious. I will present my thoughts as to how to restore this country in subsequent posts.
