THE ENEMY WITHIN: COMMUNISTS IN SHEEP'S CLOTHING

I currently live in a rural Oklahoma county, one that is heavily
Democrat Party populated. Almost all of my neighbors, mostly farmers and
ranchers, are life-long Democrats. Every one of them are great folks, and
more importantly, very patriotic Americans.
We seldom discuss politics, but when we do it generally has to do with
some stupid law that those people in Washington come up with that
hurts agriculture, the price of beef, the price of fuel, or federal
regulations that keep farmers and ranchers from earning a decent
living.
Little is said about the world condition, the war in Iraq or
Afghanistan, or politics in general. More attention is given to the weather,
and lately the lack of rain, than to the number of roadside bombs or morale
of the population of Iraq.
However, recently I got into a fence conference with one of my
neighbors. This is a typical how’s it goin’ session where we meet at
our fenceline and lean on the barbed wire while we discuss whatever comes
to mind. Our conversation eventually turned to politics, and to “what
those old boys in Washington are up to.
I’ll call my neighbor John for privacy’s sake.
John asked, Wonder when we’ll get our boys outta Iraq?
Well, John, I guess when the military says it’s safe to turn the
country over to the Iraqi government and their army and police forces are
ready to handle the terrorists on their own.
We shouldn’t have been there in the first place, said John, picking
up a piece of Johnson grass to pick his teeth with.
Oh, and why not? Iraq was a country that harbored and supported
terrorists, and was intent on making nuclear, biological and chemical
weapons to use against anyone Hussein got mad at.
Naw, said John. Bush lied.
I had been waiting months to broach this topic with John, and
especially for him to give me an opening to discuss what has happened to his
Democrat party over the years since World War II. I knew that John was a
FDR/Harry Truman Democrat, as most mainstream southern and mid-west Democrats
are, and he had little knowledge of what had happened to his Grand Pappy’s
Party.
John, why do you say 'Bush lied'?
’Cause he did. Everyone knows that. He lied about them weapons of mass
destruction, and that Hussein guy’s being tied to that bin Laden.
Actually, John, he didn’t lie at all. Before I retired from the
military I saw satellite photos of a place called Salman Pak in Iraq where
Hussein was training Arab terrorists from all over the world, including al
Qaeda types. We knew of bin Laden back in the 80s, and where he got his
support.
Also, I saw photos of installations that were in the mountains in Iraq
where Hussein was manufacturing and storing chemicals and biological
weapons. Finally, my nephew was a Captain in Baghdad with the Army and
saw a huge underground storage facility where 55 gallon drums of chemicals
had been stored and had recently been moved.
If all that were true, we’d hear about it in the news and in the
newspapers.
John, when the same people run the papers and other media outlets as
run your party, you won’t hear of this stuff.
What? exclaimed John. And who are those people?
Mostly communists and international socialists. The same anti-American
groups that control or drive the Democrat party these days at the
national level, and who control most of the Democratic representatives and
senators, control what you and I see and hear from the media
organizations. The communists learned long ago that to control a
country, you had to control the minds of the people, and you do this with the
media. It’s agenda-driven propaganda. They can either lie, bend the
truth, or not report on something. It’s simple.
You’re crazy. There ain’t no danged commies in the Democratic party. I
woulda heard about ‘em.
And there’s the rub. No politician is going to step forward and say
they support communism or international socialism. But they do vote that
way, and the true communist and socialist organizations have agendas that
are either part of the Democratic National Convention (DNC) agenda, or
parallel it.
The Communist Party of the USA of the 1930s through the 1950s
determined that the Soviet brand of Communism would not be able to make
progress in a country that was involved in a Cold War with the USSR, feared
Castro in Cuba, and was preparing for war in Southeast Asia against
Communism, so a decision was made to inject itself into the existing leftist
party of sufficient size: The Democrat Party. Then, if they could have their
infiltrators work their way to the top, the Democrat Party would become
the vehicle to advance the agenda of the Workers of the World, and
eventually the New Communist Man.
The plan was multi-faceted, and all backed by Moscow. Over a period of
time, take over the media, take over the educational system, attack
religion and get God out of every facet of life as possible, use
minorities, labor unions, and disaffected groups to further their
goals, and shift the country as far left as possible using laws, regulations,
and the court system. Add to this taking over the federal courts,
increasing the size and number of the social programs, make people more
reliant on government (and less on God, family and local communities), and
finally try to disarm the American public. Peasants with firearms were not
conducive to totalitarianism.
By the mid 1960s, both Moscow and Hanoi were very involved in creating
media events that would change the attitude of the American people
against out war effort in Vietnam. The KGB funded several anti-war movements,
organized protest marches, and placed sympathizers and out-and-out
socialists into our media organizations. Every one of them were members
of the Democrat Party.
Senator Joe McCarthy (R-Wis) who conducted investigations in the 1950s
for the Senate Anti-American Activities Committee (renamed the House
Internal Security Committee in 1969 and abolished in 1975) was viciously
attacked when he tried to expose Communists in various positions in politics,
entertainment, the media and the business world. One example was Alger
Hiss, who was a key player in the formation of the United Nations, and
who later proved to be a spy for the Soviet Union, just as McCarthy
alleged.
But the media attack on Tailgunner Joe McCarthy and his committee was
relentless and to this day, McCarthy and his McCarthyism is
synonymous with witch hunt.
Still, the various Communist and Socialist parties, many of which have
ties to governments of countries with anti-American agendas, gravitate
to, or have members that reside in the Democrat Party. In fact, one
extreme-left socialist organization that follows doctrine is the
Congressional Progressive Caucus. Members of this group include such
leftists as: Barbara Lee, Lynn Woolsey, founder (and Senate hopeful)
Bernie Sanders, Dennis Kucinich , Jan Schakowsky, John Conyers, Maurice
Hinchey, George Miller, Nancy Pelosi, Maxine Waters, Bob Filner, Diane
DeGette, Alcee Hastings, John Lewis, Patsy Mink, Jesse Jackson Jr. III,
John Conyers, Jerrold Nadler, Jamor Owens, Charles Rangel, Dennis
Kucinch, Sherrod Brown, Peter DeFazio, Robert C. Scott, James McDermitt, and
Barney Frank, to name a few. There are more than fifty members to date, all
Democrats. And the most socialistic (read Communistic) of our
politicians are a band of rabid anti-American socialists: Charles
Schumer, Hillary Clinton, Barbara Boxer, Dianne Fienstein, Frank Lautenburg,
Ted Kennedy, John Kerry, Harry Reid and others, all Democrats. Of note is
the fact that the Communist Party of the USA and the Chinese Communist
Party endorsed John Kerry in the last election.
There is an old saying that birds of a feather flock together.
Nothing could be more true when it comes to agendas that all work in the same
direction. Below is a list of just a few far left wing organizations
that have infiltrated, support, or vote Democrat:
Communist Party USA
Democratic Socialists of America
Socialist Party USA
Socialist Workers Party
Workers Socialist Party USA
Social Democrats USA
There are more, but suffice it to say that the local Democrat Party
representatives at the city and county level, to the most part, are
clueless that their party has been taken over or being steered by the
above organizations. Add to this the DNC’s support of the most heinous
agenda items to come down the pike since World War II: Massive Welfare,
horrendous tax increases and social spending, abortion, support of the
homosexual agenda, inception of NAFTA and GATT to create socialist
trade zones and encourage our corporations to move our factories out of the
country (which reduces our self sufficiency), taking over our local
schools and teaching methods with NEA-directed federal programs,
disarmament and reduction of our military, disarmament of our
population with steady attacks on the 2nd Amendment, creation of hate speech
laws that destroy the 1st Amendment, alleged separation of church and
state and its resultant persecution of Christianity and God.
How is all of this accomplished? Simply put, it has come in a doctrine
of Fabian Socialism. Unlike pure Communism, where a political agenda is
instituted at the end of a gun, Fabian Socialism drives its agenda with
patient gradualism. It is done with legislation, one law at a time.
With regulations, created by un-elected bureaucrats who are given powers by
being in positions of authority inside agencies that are invented to
control various aspects of our lives, such as the EPA, OSHOA,
Department of the Interior, Department of Labor, Food and Drug
Administration, and the totally un-Constitutional Department of Health,
Education and Welfare, and now the Department of Homeland Security, among
others.
In the 1950s, Soviet Premier Nikita Kruschev made the bold statement
We will bury you without firing a shot. No one knew exactly what he meant
at the time, but we can now see that Russian Marxist-Leninism has
manifested itself within not just the Democrat Party at the national level,
but within our Congress and Senate and most of our government institutions.
Their goals are being achieved, and they have yet to fire a shot. And
they are being supported by good Americans like John, who is a
dyed-in-the-wool Yellow Dog Democrat, simply because his daddy was, and his
grandpappy, No other reason. Just vote Democrat.
Are the Republicans at the national level any different, or better?
That’s the topic for another column. But I have come to realize over the
years that the only difference between Democrats and Republicans at the
national level is this: if the Democrats decide to burn down Washington, the
Republicans vote to compromise and burn it down over a two week period.
The end result is the same. And as for upholding the Constitution,
President Bush’s failure to secure our borders, his failure to reduce
government spending and bureaucracies, and his latest drive to keep the
so-called Patriot Act in place and permanent shows that neither party
can be trusted to keep the faith of the American people and adhere to
the limits of the Constitution. Ask any politician what the meaning of
the 10th Amendment is and they will give you a blank stare. No politician
wants to wear that Amendment’s handcuffs when it comes to making laws
or spending money.
My neighbor, John, is a good church going Christian. He’s getting on in
years and takes pride in being an elder and a deacon in his country
Baptist church. I just had to ask him after explaining much of what is
written above, John, how can you call yourself a Christian and turn
around and vote for Democrats?
What do you mean?
Well, consider what Scripture says about homosexuals, killing babies,
stealing, bearing false witness and its persecution of Christianity,
removal of prayer and God from the schools you and I pay for, and the
removal of religious symbols from our public places, not to mention now
telling folks they can’t even say ‘Merry Christmas because it might
offend someone, how can you support such a party? Furthermore, can’t
you see that all of this has been and continues to be the Communist agenda?
You can’t have Communism and God both existing in the same country,
when Communism is atheist and cannot tolerate competition.
John looked speculative for a moment, then looked up at the heavens.
Think we’ll ever get some rain?
