The 60's Are Over and They Were a Disaster. You're Not Saving the World, You're Just A Mess.

In trying to dismiss the fact that Barack Obama launched his political career at the home of an ultra-radical domestic terrorist, I've heard it said several times that this was simply a "right of passage" and not reflective of him.

Just how depraved does an organization have to be to have a "rite of passage" that runs through the home of a couple that saluted Charles Manson, told hippies "kill your parents", and still waxes nostalgic over it all?

They're elite Democrats, that's what they do...seriously.

In a somewhat related vein you might remember gonzo journalist extraordinaire Hunter Thompson's incredibly twisted earthly exit back in 2005. He shot himself while on the phone with his wife and while his son and grandson were in the house with him. A real stand-up guy.

Anyways, something stuck out to me about his bizarre funeral. It wasn't just that Johnny Depp threw a $2.5 million funeral complete with blow-up sex dolls and a 15 story tower (made to look like a fist clenching a peyote button) to shoot Thompson's ashes into the sky before an invite-only crowd, but that John Kerry was there. John Kerry? As in the Democrats' last idea of leadership material?

You have to wonder, if Kerry had won would he still have attended? A "Mission Accomplished" banner was a little much, but how would a picture of an American president look with Blow Up Betty floating in the background?

Historian Doug Brinkley spoke of Thompson:

"He's got more friends than anyone else I know," Brinkley (Historian Doug) continues, counting off names like George McGovern, Sandy Berger and former president Jimmy Carter and his family. Thompson introduced Billy Carter to Heineken, according to Brinkley.

Last summer, Thompson also became friends with then-presidential candidate John Kerry. At a campaign stop in Colorado, Brinkley recalls, Kerry said, "I'm here to announce today my candidate for vice-president is Hunter S. Thompson." "

Unfortunately for millions of everyday Democrats across the country the elites of their party are still so helplessly lovestruck with 60's nostalgia that they refuse to grow up and recognize depravity as depravity.

Let's take a few Democrats from the absolute top of the heap and see if we can't find a pattern:

BARACK OBAMA-
*His former "mentor", Frank Marshall Davis, was an avowed Marxist and member of the Communist Party of the United States.

*For the past 20 years he has attended and given significant financial support to a church in which the pastor - a former muslim and black nationalist - has now been heard to have denounced "Amerikkka" in the harshest of ways.

*His wife, an Ivy League graduate making over $350,000 a year, languished for twenty some years before pride in her country surfaced.

*He has a cordial relationship with a man who once bombed our Pentagon and regrets that he "didn't do enough".

*Some of his enthusiastic volunteers were seen on the news with a flag bearing the likeness of the murderous Che Guevara hanging in their office.

*His campaign's official blogger flies the Communist Party flag at his apartment and publishes his work in a "revolutionary Marxist journal".

*His campaign's technology advisor recently created a video with a gay Jesus getting hit by a bus. He also hopes to advance the idea of "digital communism".

JOHN KERRY-
*Met with Vietcong officials in Paris while American troops were still fighting in Vietnam.

*Accepted donations from the designated Albanian terrorist group the KLA. (The leader of the KLA, know as "Snake", was later a guest at the Democratic National Convention)

BILL CLINTON-
*Pardoned 16 Marxist Puerto Rican terrorists who organized over 100 bombings in the U.S., killing six and injuring 130. Some of the terrorists even threatened the judge in their trial.

*Pardoned two domestic terrorists associated with the subversive Weather Underground. One participated in a string of bombings and the other aided a bank robbery that left one guard and two police officers dead.

*Invited terrorist sympathizer and unlikely billionaire Yasser Arafat to the White House.

*His wife did pro-bono work defending two Black Panthers in their trial for torturing and murdering one of their members for "disloyalty".

JIMMY CARTER-
*Has met with on friendly terms with socialist dictator Hugo Chavez.

*Invited genocidal dictator Robert Mugabe to the White House.

*Met North Korean leader Kim il Sung and assured the U.S. that North Korea didn't have weaponized nuclear ambitions (Oops)

*Met with communist dictator Fidel Castro.

*Met with Yasser Arafat.

*Recently traveled to Syria and embraced leaders of the terrorist regime Hamas against strong warnings by the State Department.

*Will surely have done something else despicable by the time I finish typing this.


There is an undoubtable pattern here of association with, sympathy for, or at the very least a lack reasonable animosity towards the most anti-American of sentiments. How this pattern either doesn't register with or doesn't bother the majority of Democrats who vote for these people escapes my comprehension.

Sure Republicans can be seen with the like of Chinese leaders and Saudi princes who are surely not good guys. The difference here -and it's a huge one- is that in the case of a Saudia Arabia or a China there's an unquestionable economic advantage for all Americans when such relationships are normalized and cordial. There are few if any benefits to friendliness with Castro for instance or Robert Mugabe.

I've heard it said that a liberal is one so open minded that their brain falls out. I think we can make a case.
