As we approach the election, the Democrats can depend on various support groups to help them in the election. These include the Iraq surrender activists, anti-military factions, the open borders crowd, the “living document” constitutionalists, same sex marriage enthusiasts, strident feminists, most of the vocal Hollywood “intellectuals,” the pornography industry, the liberal-biased media, pro-abortion advocates/industry, welfare recipients, most atheists, those who are against prayer in school and want “In God we Trust” taken off our currency. Many are consumed with anger and hatred and are bent on destroying those who do not share their views. Witness their savage attacks on the governor of Alaska because she is a conservative, pro-life and a strong Christian.
The Russian author Dostoevsky is often credited with saying, “If there is no God, everything is permissible.” For many liberal progressives everything is relative. Is there any wonder that so many children are born out of wedlock, our prisons are full, smut and filth flood the airwaves reaching into our homes, crime and corruption are rampant in our politics and institutions, and the school dropout rate is astronomical?
While all Democrats don’t buy into all of these “progressive” agendas, they do not turn down their backing, money and votes. It would be very difficult to win an election without them. These entities will certainly demand their pound of flesh if the Demos win in November; especially if they win total control of both houses of Congress and the White House. Remember this when you fill out your ballot.
