When I put up the video of Dana Loesch and Jim Hoft, I totally forgot about a real important point until I went back to GatewayPundit to check on something (emphasis mine):
It seems like it was just yesterday that I broke the news here on Gateway Pundit that Van Jones signed 9-11 Truther documents blaming Bush for 9-11. This revelation forced Obama’s Green Czar to resign from his position in the Obama White House two days later. They talked about Van’s departure on FOX News at the time.
So it was a real pleasure to finally meet commie Van Jones.
I had totally forgotten that Jim was the impetus, along with Glen Beck at the time for doing his great job on “connecting the dots”, that made it impossible for Jones to stay in the White House. I still, however, am amazed that it was the cast of being a Truther that was Jones’ undoing; that can be past off as simply an act of stupidity or being a lover of conspiracy theory – and not being a self-described Communist. Has it been that long since we all thought that Communism was dead, given the fall of the evil empire and empirical evidence that Communism and socialism just don’t work (and even its milder form, socialist democracy, is having severe problems in Europe and in the true Blue States like California and Illinois)? And yet, these ideologues of the Left just keep insisting, after 100 years of tries, that socialism can be successful, if only the right people were in charge.
Stubborn folks, them. Really, after a 100 years and they still can’t figure out that sometimes the phrase “try, try again” should just be ignored. And please note that the truth lies in that last phrase (“if only the right people were in charge”) – that alone should ALWAYS be worrisome as it generally means “someone else is in charge of YOU”. You really want to let the Progressives regress back to a monarchical style of government – where the King and his Court ruled as an elite? Think again as you hear their words – in their system, you are a mere prole, a small cog in “the social machine”, instead of the “endowed by our Creator” meritocracy created by our radical Founders. Think I’m wrong? Look at the old Soviet Union and the advantages of the apparatchiks and now, the “new Chinese Mandarins”. The names change but the outlook doesn’t – it’s all about control. Van Jones and the fellow simply wraps his up in a Green Flag, sustainability for all in a new economy – all managed by folks like him.
And not us for and by ourselves. And that is what this battle is about: whether we allow Government to RULE us, or we citizens have a Government that SERVES us.
