“Suicide Voters”

Shamelessly filched from American Digest’s Sidelines, this excerpt from Sal Traina’s A Real Threat To America:

Suicide bombers don’t care about the effects of their actions on others. They believe that their awful actions will be rewarded afterwards by their almighty ruler, Allah. They believe they will be taken to paradise. They are taught from a very young age that Americans are the real evil in the world, and that to kill them is a noble and Godly act.
In the United States, we have suicide voters. These radical progressives and liberals don’t care about the effects of their actions on others. They believe their almighty ruler, government, will reward them with a utopian society that cares for them from cradle to grave. These domestic terrorists are indoctrinated in our public schools from a young age to believe that Americans are the real evil in the world, and their greed must be avenged with social justice policies that redistribute their wealth.

The fact is, liberalism isn’t really an objective. Conservatism might be an objective, but liberalism is merely a direction. Dog chasing the car. It doesn’t really know where it’s going, nor does it care

What We Really Need Is Democracy

With King Morsi-Tut to vote for!

Almost two years after Egyptian strongman Hosni Mubarak was removed from power, Cairo’s Tahrir Square is still an epicenter of protest and violence. It’s an epicenter of protest and violence because Egypt is again ruled by a man who has declared himself dictator. The country’s new president, Mohammad Morsi of the Muslim Brotherhood’s Freedom and Justice Party, announced that “constitutional declarations, decisions and laws issued by the president are final and not subject to appeal.”
He’s already being called the new Pharaoh. It makes no difference that he was elected. Democracy isn’t just about getting elected. A democratic election is not a one-time plebiscite on who the next tyrant is going to be. Democracy requires individual and minority rights and the separation of powers. Winners cannot oppress losers, nor do losers get to wage war on the winners.

On the other hand, the pharaohs were able to get Egyptians to show up for work, which is more than any modern government has managed to do.
