Half-truths Can Be As Deceptive As Outright

Karl Marx Predicted The Eventual Withering Away Of The State And The 'dictatorship Of The Proletariat,' When The People Would Rule, Which Was Sheer Fantasy Because It Was Sheer Fantasy Because It Was Based On Grossly Erroneous Assumptions About Human Nature, As History Would Repeatedly Demonstrate.

Don't Ever Let Anyone Tell You That History Doesn't Repeat. For 70 Years, Liberals Have Been Spinning The Yarn That Fdr's New Deal, Despite All The Evidence That It Exacerbated And Prolonged The Great Depression, Quickened Our Economic Recovery. Indeed, I Remember Scratching My Head When One Of My College History Professors In The 1970s Tried To Convince Us Of That Theory And Its Corollary - An Even Better Howler - That Fdr Was Actually A Conservative, Because If He Hadn't Implemented His Socialist Programs, The Republic Would Have Died Right There.

Obama's Marxist Mentors - Franklin Marshall Davis, Saul Alinsky And Bill Ayers - Also Understood That You Don't Build An Army Of Street Organizers Or A Recurring Voting Constituency By Teaching People Of The Streets To Fish. When You 'share Wealth Around' You Make The Distributees Dependent On Your Next Handout - Beholden To Your Largesse With Other's People's Money And Personally Worse Off In Every Respect.

For Liberals, Supposedly Good Intentions Always Trump Results.

Republicans Are Already On Seriously Thin Ice, Having Presided Over An Era Of Unprecedented Spending And Consistently Failing To Articulate Conservative Principles On A Wide Variety Of Issues. But What Obama Has In Store Will Make President Bush Appear, In Retrospect, Like A Libertarian.
