Why are left-wing activist groups so keen on registering the poor to vote?
Because they know the poor can be counted on to vote themselves more
benefits by electing redistributionist politicians. Welfare recipients are
particularly open to demagoguery and bribery.
Registering them to vote is like handing out burglary tools to criminals.
It is profoundly antisocial and un-American to empower the nonproductive
segments of the population to destroy the country -- which is precise... 阅读全帖 |

In 2008, I wrote a book called “Liberal Fascism.” That title came from H.

ended with a ceremony held under tight security.
"To be sure, the cost was high — in blood and treasure for the United
States and also for the Iraqi people," Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said.
"But those lives have not been lost in vain."
The fighting resulted, Panetta said, in a "free and sovereign Iraq."
