Star Parker explains that the leadership of today’s Democrats are moving to the ultra far-left:
A popular term of left wing spin-meisters these days is "progressive."
Liberalism did not fall from favor like an out of vogue restaurant or some fad. It lost its glow because facts show it doesn't work.
I am talking about the liberal idea that government is the answer to our problems. Tax here and spend there, take from this one and redistribute to that one, and you can solve any social or economic problem.
Ironically, globally, as China, India and Africa see the light of day by shedding government controls and planning, this is where our Democrats want to take us.
There has been ink about the Democratic candidates snubbing the annual meeting of the Democratic Leadership Council, which represents the moderate wing of the party, while they plan to attend a bloggers convention sponsored by the ultra-left website DailyKos.
And here is why I call them the lying left:
You can argue as several have that in the general election the Democratic nominee will scurry back toward the center. But today, every Democratic candidate is entrenched unapologetically in the far left.
So the con job by these far-left extremists in the general election will be that they are "moderates" and that those damn Republicans are a bunch of extremists. The truth is that these so-called "progressives" are actually secular humanists. And what they call extremists are those of us who want to restore America’s traditional American principles of a limited government and self-government with rights that come from God. Star Parker explains it this way:
Someone recently e-mailed me the following wonderful quote from Rabbi Daniel Lapin, head of an organization called Toward Tradition:
"Politics is nothing more than the practical application of our most deeply held beliefs."
The deeply held belief of the left, that government can solve the problems of the poor, destroyed black families and black communities.
The deeply held beliefs of conservatives – faith, traditional values, work and personal responsibility – is restoring these families and communities.
The left may talk today about courting values voters. But big-government values voters is an oxymoron.
The country now is at a real crossroads, and we're going to have to wake up if we care about our children.
The failures of the welfare state and social engineering go beyond poor black women.
Now I point back to my previous point about Senator John Thune’s vote to prevent further big government socialism.
