OPINION: The Politics of Weakness
Submitted by George McClellan
The Progressives (Marxists) starting with Obama, deny that any interpretation of exceptionalism, as applied to America, shouldnt exist. Every country is exceptional and our exceptionalism wasnt earned they tell us, it was stolen. Progressives dont believe America was ever exceptional and view Americas history as an exercise in blatant imperialism stealing land from indigenous Americans, looting the continent for corporate wealth and having the audacity to meddle in other countries politics. To the contrary, our history is filled with observations from intelligent and famous American statesmen, philosophers, writers, comics and even a famous Frenchman who wrote about what he saw as a special American trait bordering on exceptionalism. Progressives dont want to accept American exceptionalism so theyve decided to rip it out. Obama started that with his promise to fundamentally change America.
Not often quoted in this context is William Seward, unsuccessful candidate for President against Abe Lincoln. But even before that in 1833, Seward, accompanying his aging father on a European tour, subsequently wrote this profound statement: that he realizes the fearful responsibility of the American people to the nations of the whole earth, to carry successfully through the experiment that men are capable of self government. On that trip, Seward’s thoughts turned to America and his faith in his country’s unique future. Seward also realized: Every revolutionary ends by becoming either an oppressor or a heretic and, a radical is a man with both feet firmly plantedin the air. Although he didnt realize it, he was clearly describing Biden and the Progressives now engaged in ruining America. Maybe he did!
Look where we are now. We dont win wars anymore. Afghanistan was gifted with billions of dollars in new American military hardware by Bidens precipitous pullout, Iran will soon have its own nuclear weapons, Ukraine is soaking up US taxpayers money, America is in a debt crisis that probably wont end until World War III is concluded. There will be no winners! Worse than that we just watched a sniveling, whiny Secretary of State Blinken kowtowing to Chinese Emperor Xi apologizing for being American, apologizing for complaining about the balloon fiasco and Lord knows what else he gave up to the Chinese. How about ignoring China’s spy bases in Cuba? When we were strong militarily and aware of who the enemy was, we drove the Soviets out of Cuba. But today, communications and missile technology have changed substantially since the cold war. Now, hypersonic Chinese missiles in Cuba can strike targets anywhere in America almost before we know theyre coming. If Blinken had a spine he would have told Xi and his Foreign Affairs minister, that immediately China attacks Taiwan, the US will sink the Chinese Navy, carpet bomb Chinas Cuban installations, launch a military assault against the whole Island of Cuba, remove its government and remake it into a new bastion of freedom. He should have said that. But dont count on anything like that happening. Our leaders are feckless, boot licking cowards hoping they dont actually fire the shot that starts WWIII. Were led by a phony illegitimate character whose very existence casts a pall on the human condition, a Chinese puppet bought and paid for pretending hes governing by dispatching his flunkies to appease his Chinese masters who tell him what they want and which he delivers.
How do they deflect our attention from their high crimes and misdemeanors? Create, then focus on Trump’s legal problems and sic the corrupt DoJ and FBI on him, on charges of mishandling national secrets. They cant hide the truth forever, but just long enough to take Trump out of the race. Their constant attacks have eroded Americans trust in fair and equal justice, but they have a far bigger problem than merely their fear of Trump. The Lefts clumsy efforts to hide their own corruption should see piles of indictments against them and their Leftists coconspirators for harboring American Secret documents in the name of Joe Biden. I mean the Universities of Pennsylvania and Delaware and other institutions that have illegally accepted Chinese money and failing to report it to the IRS. The deep states arrogance and corruption is so pervasive that the only solution to their undoing lies in the solution that solved the problem of undoing of the Gordian Knot. Slice it open with a blunt sword (kinetic action).
Hunter Bidens admission of falsifying (lying) about a gun purchase, failing to pay income tax on his millions of influence peddling payoff dollars from the Ukraine oil company, Burisma, and the Billions paid to him by China through front investment companies is another diversion even as it reveals more questions. Can we seriously accept that the widow of the mayor of Moscow simply gave Hunter Biden $3.5 million because she likes him? Did the Ukrainian energy firm Burisma really put Hunter Biden on their Board of Directors and pay him millions of dollars because of his expertise in the field? I dont thinks so. We are in a world of hurt and the web of Progressive mischief has spread into nearly every aspect of our federal government. They have turned it into a weak example of a failing mafia. Biden is indeed an oppressor and a heretic. I dont really care that hes entering the dark areas of dementia, its his face that is his government. It is wholly corrupt and without a serious change, and soon, America will be lost forever! Is that what were sitting around waiting for? We have nowhere to go. Perhaps we can buy a ticket on Bidens train across the Pacific to the Indian Ocean.
Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get em! (20Jun23)
