As difficult as it was, I forced myself to listen to a half hour of that Satanic Circus frequently referred to as the Democratic National Convention last Wednesday night (08/21).
I must admit that Minnesota
Governor Tim Walz gave a well-constructed, and even engaging, speech.
Unfortunately, while it was long on style, it fell short on substance,
and was almost completely devoid of truth. That comes as no surprise to
those of us out here in 'Rocks and Cows' country - as the old bull, Tim Walz,
derisively refers to rural Minnesota - the place where many of us live who have suffered under the Walz
administration's reign of terror for the past 5 or 6 years.
Yes indeed, Walz
certainly talks a good game - projecting himself as either grandpa, coach,
socialist neighbor, Robin Hood or Santa Claus, depending on the situation. But what he
actually delivers... well that ranges anywhere from a steaming pile of bovine
scatology to despotic tyranny.
As has become
all too typical with the political party of the far left, the speech
itself was a barrage of unsupported accusations, aspersion casting,
psychological projection, and just outright lies - commonplace diversion
tactics in the critical attempt to hide their radical views from the
voting public. Truly, his speech was all that. But he didn't stop there.
For starters, he
claimed - actually implored us to "trust me on this" - that Trump and Vance
have a playbook. I agree that they do - and making this possibly one of the
very few times he actually told the truth last night. Although they
didn't write it, their playbook is most commonly referred to by
patriotic Americans as the Constitution of the United States of
America. And as such, you can be sure it is utterly incomprehensible to
either Kamala Harris or Tim Walz.
Truth be
told, the Harris and Walz ticket also have a playbook. No, they didn't write theirs
either - that would assume a level of seriousness that neither of them possess. But in their case, they didn't need to.
Karl Marx already wrote
their playbook (as updated by Gramsci) in 1848. According
to Antonio Gramsci, no cultural revolutionary worth his salt is without his
long march through the institutions and history. Walz is no exception.
Walz may be a former high school social studies teacher, but he is first and foremost a prevaricating politician. As
such, his attempts at historical revisionism are pathetic, but expected - believable only by sycophantic party members and the
brainwashed masses in attendance. One such example was when he straight-facedly said:
"We know what they'll do if they get back in the White House. They'll
jack up costs on middle-class families." A charge that is laughable on its face.
To make such a charge against his opponents, willfully ignores
the indisputable fact that in their 3 1/2 years, the Biden/Harris regime ushered in the
highest inflation rates this country has seen since Jimmy Carter. Yet Walz
had the temerity to accuse the Republican ticket of planning to raise
costs on families - consumer costs that have risen steadily since Harris and
Biden assumed office and implemented their inflationary economic policy. Inflation, more precisely, that was fueled by the
cynically-named Inflation Reduction Act and which was only enacted by
means of Ms. Harris' tie-breaking vote in the Senate.
Given
that inflation is widely considered by economists to be the cruelest tax of
all - hitting hardest those with the least means - this nonsensical
claim was both a show of his utter lack of factual integrity and a clear
appeal to ignorance within the Democrat base.
His economic illiteracy is illustrated further, given that only days prior, his running mate had announced her economic plan - or more accurately her plan to institute an obtrusive centrally planned economy. A key component of which was wage and price controls to combat, in her words, "price gauging." We can only speculate, but their plan will likely include asking Congress to repeal the law of supply and demand.
As
an aside, he also accused his opponents of wanting to repeal Obamacare. Which ironically, is an action that, if passed through Congress would most
certainly reduce health insurance prices to working Americans.
He
also attempted to stir patriotism by appealing to his dubious military
service claims (a topic for another time and another person) and by
declaring that freedom was a big part of "what this election is about."
That, in some strange way, may be one of the few statements he made that
Republicans might possibly agree with. But any illusory point of agreement ends upon further examination of what he means.
Again, this truth-shifting sophist leveled the ironic charge that it is
actually Republicans - not Democrats - who would be the threat to our freedom.
Such a fantastical claim can only be understood when you realize that
his definition of freedom has little to do with the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 5th, and
10th amendments, parts of the Bill of Rights which he has big disagreements with, but primarily the
so-called 'freedom' to kill babies - unborn and even newborn - via
surgical and chemical abortions, for any or no reason, and by any
method, however gruesome.
More
interestingly, the freedom charge is rife with hypocrisy coming from a man who reigned
as a little dictator during COVID - someone who shut down his state, who
set up a snitch hotline for neighbors to turn against neighbors, who
sent armed police forces to shoot paintballs at citizens who were sitting on their
front porches, who fined and jailed small business owners for remaining
open, ordered COVID-infected patients into nursing homes, and who shut down churches while opening up candy stores, liquor
stores, and strip clubs, while continuing his unchecked Emergency Powers months after COVID was no longer a
threat. This is the charlatan accusing Republicans of being a threat to freedom.
Indeed, quite a strange notion of freedom, these Democrats.
Despite all that, it would be a huge
mistake to presume that Walz is a low IQ individual on par with his
presumptive boss, Kamala Harris. Quite the contrary, he's probably better
described as a diabolical genius, a master propagandistic rhetorician,
and an opportunistic wannabe dictator. In this writer's opinion, that's not 'Minnesota nice'.
