What the Demokrat Party Seeks

The Party seeks power entirely for its own sake. We are not interested in the good of others; we  are interested solely in power. … We know that no one ever seizes power with the intention of relinquishing it. Power is not a means; it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship. The object of persecution is persecution. The object to of torture is torture. The object of power is power. Now do you begin to understand me?

George Orwell, 1984

"Social Justice" is Envy

He Who Controls the Narrative…

In the end the Party [today’s Leftists] would announce that two and two made five [or a male could be a female or a female could be a male], and you would have to believe it. It was inevitable that they should make that claim sooner or later: the logic of their position demanded it. Not merely the validity of the experience, but the very existence of external reality was tacitly denied by their philosophy. The heresy of heresies was common sense. … The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.

Eric Blair (aka George Orwell), 1984

In 1984 the Thought Police could kill you for thinking truth and common sense; in today’s world you just lose your job or get kicked out of school, or ever beat up. But, as 1984’s protagonist Winston Smith says, “Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four.” Or that a man cannot change into a woman nor a woman into a man.

The Reason the LEFT Rewrites History

If the Party [today’s Leftists and Demokrats] could thrust its hand into the past and say of this or that event, It never happened—that, surely, was more terrifying than mere torture and death. … And if all others accepted the lie which the Party imposed—if all records told the same lie—then the lie passed into history and became truth. “Who controls the past,” ran the party slogan, “controls the future: who controls the present controls the past.”

Eric Blair (aka George Orwell), 1984

Who is YOUR Authority?

If the source of law is the individual, then the individual is the god of that system...if source of law is our court then the court is our god.  If there is no higher law beyond man, then man is his own god... When you choose your authority, you choose your god, and when you look for your law, there is your god.

R. J. Rushdoony, cited by Erwin W. Lutzer, When A Nation Forgets God

What Would Your Choice Be?

When given a choice, most people probably will choose bread and sausage above the free market and individual liberties. ...many people would prefer economic equality along with tyranny rather than economic opportunity with freedom.

Erwin W. Lutzer, When A Nation Forgets God

When God Is Ousted From Government

When God is ousted from government, transcendent values are replaced by 

*) The raw use of power

*) Eroticism 

*) Arbitrary judicial rulings

*) The morality of personal pragmatism.

Erwin W. Lutzer, When A Nation Forgets God

Making a Point

If you have an important point to make, don’t try to be subtle or clever. Use the pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time; a tremendous whack. 

Winston Churchill, cited in The Smart Words and Wicked Wit of Winston Churchill, edited by Max Morris, pg. 147

Family

Where does the family start? It starts with a young man falling in love with a girl—no superior alternative has yet been found.

Winston Churchill, cited in The Smart Words and Wicked Wit of Winston Churchill, edited by Max Morris, pg. 121

Criticism

Criticism may not be agreeable, but it is necessary. It fulfills the same function as pain in the human body. It calls attention to an unhealthy state of things. 

Winston Churchill, cited in The Smart Words and Wicked Wit of Winston Churchill, edited by Max Morris, pg. 110

Duty of Universities

The first duty of the university is to teach wisdom, not a trade; character not technicalities. We want a lot of engineers in the modern world, but we do not want a world of engineers. 

Winston Churchill, cited in The Smart Words and Wicked Wit of Winston Churchill, edited by Max Morris, pg.106

Do What You Must

A man does what he must — in spite of personal consequences, in spite of obstacles and dangers and pressures — and that is the basis of all human morality.

Winston Churchill, cited in The Smart Words and Wicked Wit of Winston Churchill, edited by Max Morris, pg.104
