Definitions Are Important

How do we define a word? We go to a dictionary. How do you define a person? We look at their character and how they live out their life. How do you define a political movement? We evaluate what they claim to be and how they carry out their agenda.  Defining a word, a person, or a movement is not all that hard if we are willing to do the research and accept reality as truth. Thus, if we were to define the progressive liberal left (just so you will know for sure who we are defining we will be looking at the Democratic party and those that they continually respond to) we would rely on what they say and what they do with and emphasis on the doing. Looking at recent history of the actions of the left I draw the following conclusions as to how the progressive left should be defined.

1.       The left are crisis seekers. They will use any crisis of national import to support their agenda and activities. They have crudely used the tragedy in Arizona to foment hate of Sarah Palin, the right wing media, and the Tea Party. It was a high official in the Obama administration that said, “we must not let a good crisis go to waste.”

2.       The left by definition are liars. Again look at the tragedy in Arizona; they blatantly lied about who the shooter is and why he did the shooting. This is not a new tactic; they have never denied that the means are justified by the ends even if they have to lie to get there.

3.       They believe in a extremely progressive taxation system. Their goal is to increase the size of government by reducing the size of the private sector.

4.       The left believes the government has the right to confiscate private property and use it not only for public purposes but also maintains the right to take private property and give it to another private party of their choice. This is playing out in the northeast through confiscation of private housing for the purpose of building private shopping malls.

5.       The left believes that the constitution is a living document and must change as the culture changes.

6.       The left believes that laws can be changed through executive regulation and not necessarily though congressional legislative actions. The Obama administration is using cabinet departments to initiate cap and trade and other issues that he knows will not pass the legislature.

7.       The left lack the virtues of charity and compassion. They historically give only 1/3 as much to charity as the conservative right. They lack compassion because of their constant use of tragedy to move forward their agenda.

8.       The left is willing to use people, in the negative sense, to move their agenda. Their historic leader, Soviet Lenin, said, “the masses are useful idiots.”

9.       The left believes that the constitutional bill of rights is the enemy of the state. This is proven out by their constant attempts to stifle free speech and to take guns away from the populous. Here again we see the Obama administration trying to use regulation to control free speech on the internet.

10.   The left is typically hypocritical. When the Muslim major killed at Fort Dix we were told to use restraint when identifying who he was and what he was associated with. There was no call for restraint when the left was wrongly identifying the Arizona shooter.  

The list could be much longer but those are the basics. We could give many more examples to prove each point but that would be redundant. The left is the movement of hate; they hate the American ideal, they hate the American patriot , and they hate anyone who stands in the way of their agenda. Is it fair to classify them as un-American in a country that thrives on free speech? Is it fair to classify them as American when their pronounced goal is to fundamentally change the American ideal destroying the constitution and the republican system of government? Is it fair for a small minority  to steal away the rights of the large majority?  Fundamental change is much different than laws that set the constructs that government use to regulate how a society relates and acts towards one another. Laws that regulate actions and far less reaching than constitutional changes that prohibit activity.

Skandalon believes that the left is un-American and that all who respect the constitution and love their country must continue the fight at the ballot box; holding our politicians accountable to the constitution. Politicians who don’t follow their pledge and mandate to uphold the constitution must pay by being voted out of office and shunned from the political arena.
