On Monday, WorldNetDaily featured a headline describing how
Democratic operatives
steal elections from Republican
opponents.
According to sources we spoke with, several elections — perhaps as many as seven or more — have been “taken” from victorious GOP candidates over a span of two decades. Worse, the very tactics used to steal those races are now being employed in an attempt to snatch victory away from Gov. George W. Bush in the state of Florida.
I’ve said this before, but it bears repeating: the modern Democratic Party is little more than a bastion for socialists, communist thinkers and usurpers of the Constitution. If you’re a Democratic politician and that characterization doesn’t fit you, then you ought to switch parties.
That makes many Democrats betrayers of the Constitution — not the least of which includes the vice president, first lady and House minority leader.
Consider:
- Al Gore — who has sworn to uphold and protect the Constitution — steadfastly refuses to acknowledge the constitutional election process that left him a loser in the Nov. 7 election. His remedy is to “use the courts to enforce the will of the people,” but the “courts” have nothing to say in this; the Constitution is the only legal precedent Americans can use to determine the outcome of a presidential election. And the Constitution is “the will of the people” in this nation — or, rather, is supposed to be.
- Senator-elect from New York, Hillary Clinton, has openly called for elimination of the Electoral College — which is the sole constitutional authority Americans use to elect presidents.
- Mrs. Clinton has now been joined in that call by House Minority Leader Richard Gephardt, who has also sworn an oath to uphold the letter of the Constitution and to defend and protect it with his life, if necessary (don’t hold your breath).
It is more than ironic to use the very same Constitution to run for and win federal office, only to then turn around and denounce it, call it “outmoded,” and seek to change it.
What is monumentally angering to millions of Americans is the hubris demonstrated by just these three leading Democrats. Most other Dems in leading positions are equally guilty but less well-known.
I personally wonder — who in hell are these people to call for revising a document that has served this nation well for nearly 230 years — long before they won the privilege of serving others in federal offices? By what right and authority do they have to seek this change? Where does their moral standing come from?
And, more appropriately, why is this an issue now — because “their man” lost? Exactly — which makes their rantings more suspect, more hollow and more hypocritical.
So far — and just in this election — WND and a precious few other news sources have reported enough instances of voter theft, fraud and intimidation that should make all of us take to the streets and demand some accountability.
But you’ll notice a strange phenomenon here in all of these stories; not once have Republicans or the Bush campaign been accused of violating the sacred (and precious) voting rights of any American — liberal or traditionalist; black or white; minority or majority; left wing or right wing or center aisle.
What does that tell you about which political ideology supports the Constitution and the true “will of the people,” and which seeks to undermine it?
In one of the most telling examples of this
difference, Sen. John Ashcroft, R-Mo., who lost his bid at reelection to a dead Missouri governor, actually has a right to contest his loss because of rampant voter impropriety and Democratic interference
via
the
courts.
But rather than put Missourians through the hassle of tearing down the state’s credibility, he has honorably conceded his “loss” and has decided to move on.
As state Democrats demonstrated Nov. 7, they would have gone to court to overturn Ashcroft’s victory, I presume — even if he had won by a wide margin — because they had already gone to court to illegally have voting centers stay open longer than legally permitted.
Such litigious activity belies the integrity of our very constitutional electoral process and it corrupts the political underpinnings of our society. By definition, such activity is traitorous and, in my view, should be considered as such.
As a Missourian and Ashcroft supporter, I am angry as hell at what happened in St. Louis on election night. For you see, Ashcroft won elsewhere but lost in St. Louis County.
However, I am also encouraged by Ashcroft’s post-election behavior — which has done nothing less than to reinforce the many reasons why I supported him in the first place. I knew he was a guy of honor.
No so for Gore or Gephardt — another Missourian — or for Mrs. Clinton. Or Warren Christopher, William Daley, and a gaggle of other Democrats who are now working overtime to destroy the fabric of our constitutional election process in Florida and probably elsewhere.
If you’re someone who really believes that a popular vote — not a group of constitutionally-appointed electors — should decide who our president should be in this republic; that Gore, Mrs. Clinton and Gephardt are right; that stealing votes away from victors is “OK” for the “greater good”; that using the power of the federal government to
illegally cultivate voters for your
party, then you also support the traitorous activity that has led Democrats to co-opt the Constitution.
That’s sad because such a wide ideological gap tends to lead to most civil wars. While I don’t support that, I, for one, will not support a Gore administration garnered by theft, chicanery, and subjugation of the Constitution any more than I have supported the Clinton administration for the same reasons.
Anyone who wins in such a way has no legitimacy. Anyone who supports such an administration is a traitor to the Constitution. It’s just that simple, regardless of who rightfully wins on Election Day.
