Here is the latest gaffe by the next Progressive letting us know that they hate America as it is, hate most Americans even more that refuse to bow down to them, and utterly despise our Constitution.
From a post from John Hawkins at Culturecide:
17) “Get your fictional hateful Bible stories and your fake fictional religious bullsh*t out of our f***ing lives. F*** you!” — Billy Eichner
16) “White people turn violent when they don’t politically get their way all the damn time in this country. It is what they do.” — Elie Mystal
14) “This country is a racist transphobic, homophobic, xenophobic, ableist, classist, Islamophobic, misogynistic, dumpster fire. As such, seeing the American flag makes me want to vomit.” — Sara Rao
10) “Healthy communities do not need police.” — LA Mayoral Candidate Gina Viola
5) “The belief that one’s entitlement to freedom is a key component of white supremacy.” — Taylor Dysart in the Washington Post.
4) “It has become necessary to dissolve the Supreme Court of the United States.” – Keith Olbermann
So, we on the Left HATE your religious beliefs, we can’t control our emotions (even as the Left believes they shouldn’t have to control their sexual urges but certainly flaunt them in public, there’s nothing good about America but we are all so good that police are not required (sure, splice that cognitive dissonance for me), that freedom can only be provided by Government (only government gives out entitlements) instead of being protected by Government (its first and Proper Role – see the Declaration of Independence), and that along with no police, no one should be held responsible by a judge.
Get all that? Can you think of the ABSOLUTE UTOPIA those, if combined, would yield? Yet, they want us to trust them in going down this rabbit hole…
So if you hear of another Progressive saying or doing stupid stuff, email me at Skip@GraniteGrok.com so I can add to the list!
Previous installments (lots of them!) over at the Main Page here. In the mean time, why have I assembled all these quotes? Daniel Henninger of the Wall Street Journal sums up these micro-totalitarians, perfect examples of the Progressive philosophy:
“The essence of modern Democratic Progressivism is: You will participate in what we have created for you, and you will comply with the law’s demands.”
One used to believe that before pen was set to legislative paper, our elected officials WOULD contemplate “is this Constitutional?“. This is the elitism of the Democrat Party and other Progressives (including Republican ones) on stage and it lines up with their ideology of collectivism and control. THIS, my friends, is Totalitarianism written kinda slow.
And here are a few choice examples of how some elected Progressives view Government, to create what they will force you to comply with, plus some unelected and unaccountable Progressives (re: Bureaucrats) that share the same outlook. That they matter and you are looked at as just getting in their way of remaking society in their own image should be horrifying.
Many more over at the Main Page:
- NH State Rep Kris Roberts (D): “Government has to protect us from our own stupidity.”
- NH State Rep Leigh Webb (D): “The role of government is to legislate behavior“
- NH State Rep Laura Pantelakos (D): “I don’t care about protecting peoples’ Liberty“
- NH State Rep. Sandra Keans (R, now D): “I don’t try to justify anything by the Constitution, it’s not my job and I don’t want to do it”.
- Kerrie Diers (former Exec. Dir. of the Nashua (New Hampshire) Regional Planning Commission) doesn’t care much that your land gets in the way of her planning (for your own good as in “WHY do our perceptions of the needs of the Collective have to give way to what Individuals own?”):
- “Private Property Rights get in the way of good planning“
Non-NH based Progressives:
- Former US Secretary of State, US Senator and First Lady Hillary Clinton:
- We just can’t trust the American people to make those types of choices…Government has to make those choices for people
- President Obama (D-Il):
- “I do think at a certain point you’ve made enough money…when you spread the wealth around, it’s good for everybody.”
- …that my individual salvation is not going to come about without a collective salvation for the country. Unfortunately, I think that recognition requires that we make sacrifices and this country has not always been willing to make the sacrifices that are necessary to bring about a new day and a new age.”
- “We are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America.“
- In America we have this strong bias toward individual action. You know, we idolize the John Wayne hero who comes in to correct things with both guns blazing. But individual actions, individual dreams, are not sufficient. We must unite in collective action, build collective institutions and organizations.
- Michelle Obama (First Lady of the US, (D-unelected Progressive National Nanny):
-
- But when our kids spend so much of their time each day in school and when many kids get up to half their daily calories from school meals, its clear that we as a nation have a responsibility to meet as well. We can’t just leave it up to the parents.
- “Make no mistake about it, this November, when we get to the polls, that is what we are deciding. Not Democrat or Republican, not left or right. In this election, and every election, it is about who will have the power to shape our children for the next four or eight years of their lives. And I am here tonight because in this election, there is only one person who I trust with that responsibility, only one person who I believe is truly qualified to be president of the United States, and that is our friend Hillary Clinton.”

We have the Right:
That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
