Kerry's Lies Don't Seem to Matter
Kerry's lies don't matter to the 45 or more million people who may vote for Kerry on Tuesday. Nor does it seem to matter that he lobbied to get a purple heart for a scratch, bugged out early from Vietnam, committed treason afterward, left one heiress and children to marry another heiress, took campaign money from Vietnamese, Chinese, and Iranians, and will stoop to any lie in a debate or on the stump. His supporters know or sense all of this already. In short, these people identify with him.
However, there will be consequences for sanctioning this year's win-at-any-cost politics of the liberals. Here is what is going to happen if Kerry is elected:
* The war in Iraq will be hastily wound down, and the attacks of the jihadists against our troops will redouble and cause thousands of unnecessary casualties, and thousands upon thousands of deaths among those who supported us (sound familiar?).
* The National Guard will be brought home, augmented, and deployed for new tasks, as Kerry himself stated in the third presidential debate. This will provide the government with more means to suppress any dissent here.
* A new and much more comprehensive Assault Weapons ban will be passed which will forbid all semi-automatic rifles or handguns. The legislation will also mandate registration of all firearms and firearms owners. I t will become a felony not to register, to use a firearm to defend your own home against invasion, or to buy or sell firearms privately without informing the authorities.
* A year or two after the new Assault Weapons Ban will have been passed, the police will start making spot checks, using the yellow forms people have filled out when they purchased firearms from a dealer, and rounding up anyone they catch not in compliance. Moreover, by this time it won't be the police as we know it, such as it is, but will be reinforced with former felons.
* At the first sign of resistance, or perhaps preemptively before any serious resistance manifests itself, Kerry's government will clamp down, and the cycle of repression and state-sanctioned violence will begin and eventually spiral out of control.
* All limitations of abortion on demand will be swept aside, and judges will be appointed to the appellate courts and Supreme Court who will discover the right of mothers to kill born children they don't want, and the right of adults to get rid of burdensome aged parents. This principle will be extended to other classes of undesirables such as the mentally ill,
the handicapped, the homeless, and the dissidents.
* The groundwork will be laid for unchecked manufacture of fraudulent votes by the big city machines, and a perfected ''litigation model'' will insure favorable recounts in any states with close outcomes. In short, our institution of contested national elections will be dead, and all elections held (until replaced by plebiscites) will be managed shams.
There is much more which will happen, but all you have to do is read up on Lenin's career to get the whole story.
This election is not about the war in Iraq, but about values. Do we take responsibility for our own retirement and health care, do we accept the blood debt we owe to the people who have died in the past to protect us and our experiment in liberty, do we restrain our appetites? Nobody said it better the James Madison, main author of the Constitution and our fourth president:
''We have staked the whole of all our political institutions upon the capacity of mankind for self-government, upon the capacity of each and all of us to govern ourselves, to control ourselves, to sustain ourselves according to the Ten Commandments of God.''
We stand at the edge of a precipice. George Bush is only trying to make us step back and reflect. There is no more margin for error, and if we go forward on the wrong path, the Republic is doomed.
There is, by the way, another possible scenario if Kerry wins. Rather than the slow way described above, it could happen quickly. Terrorists, emboldened by our weakness will attack us again on our own soil, but then with much more force than on 9/11.
That will be the perfect occasion for the declaration of martial law which will then never be lifted.
I suspect that this wouldn't really matter to many of Kerry's supporters.
