Islamic Terrorists and Presidential Candidates Share This Goal

Americans have changed and, most unfortunately, lost a lot of simple options taken for granted as the last 18 years unfolded. The day after 9/11/2001 brought the country together and there momentarily seemed that we all had something precious in common.

If that sounds a bit syrupy, it is.  Truth is, as months and years passed certain known factions in the country ramped up what had previously been only moderately effective efforts to encourage national hatred from within.

So here we are.  And on 9/11 this year I can't help making a comparison between radical Islam and the current -- and, we hope, soon to be utterly forgettable -- crop of radical (oops, did I already use that word?) Democrat presidential candidates.

No brain surgery here -- both are dedicated to collapsing our capitalist system.  No sir, no ma'am, n-o-o-o-o-o-o free market allowed.  A central socialist entity, be it an actual form of government or brutal rule based upon religious dogma, controls everybody's everything, including personal wealth and conduct.  Personal intellectual property?  Forget it.  Punishment?  Terrible, even death, and one need not even be guilty.

Heck, look at the "Green New Deal."  Right out of the United Nations.  We won't belabor this unaffordable multi-trillion dollar monstrosity which can only drive a nation to socialism and worse, but will mention one little tidbit, that family electric bills would, by necessity, instantly rise by hundreds of dollars a month.  A month.  Meanwhile, the so far unworkable fantasy of totally green energy would kill billions of birds and other wildlife influenced fatally by killer wind turbines and fast-fry solar panels which look invitingly like lakes.

As the remaining bunch of Demo-lunatics are scheduled to conduct yet another insane asylum-style debate Thursday evening, we ask, where oh where are the Democrats with whom we grew up, the rational variety whom at least said things that made a modicum of sense?  Now we have race-baiters and Trump haters with all the enduring substance of bug-infested whipped cream.

It's a little late, but maybe somebody should form a search party to make sure that what few sane Democrats remain aren't lost in the woods somewhere.  The Democrat Party may want them eventually -- say, after the 2020 elections, when an almost inevitable shock wears off.
