Interesting Reading

An interesting book I have been reading, titled “Why Jews are Liberals” by Norman Podhoretz, I came across a section related to Nazi Germany in 1932 that I thought sounded familiar to what is taking place in our country today.

Although the following section refers to the plight of the Jews at the time, it also can be considered in the context of how the radical left and the Socialist/Marxist in the present administration have come into power. I quote: “In Germany of all places, an openly and poisonous anti-Semitic party had taken over the government and had, moreover, done so not by a coup but through a democratic election. And to make the situation more horrifying, when shortly after becoming chancellor, Hitler seized on a staged pretext to demand that the Reichstag allow him to suspend the constitution, two-thirds of the deputies acceded, enabling him to turn what had been an exemplary democracy into a dictatorship in which he soon enjoyed absolute power.” (Similar to Pelosi, Reid and Obama hijacking the democratic party and passing Obamacare and pushing for other massive programs)

In addition, since there was no vetting of Obama during the presidential campaign for fear something may be found, Obama was elected under the premise that he was a centrist even though all his associations throughout his life from his parents, grandparents, college colleagues, who in his own words sought out the radicals, Chicanos and Marxist on campus, as well as his 20 year relationship with Rev. Wright and his hushed relationship with domestic terrorist Bill Ayers and his wife, Bernadette Dorn. All these relationships have now given a clearer picture of what was elected and it was not what most Americans thought they would be getting. This brings up another entry in the book that also reflects what is happening today with this administration. “Under the new imperatives, the Communist went to almost comical lengths in dressing themselves up to look like one hundred percent Americans. Everything they did was made to seem as American as possible. What had been the Young Communist League one day became the American Youth for Democracy, whose local chapters named themselves after legendary figures from American history like Molly Pitcher and Paul Revere. The education institution the party set up in New York was named Thomas Jefferson. “ I thought I would share these thoughts with everyone since upon reading this section of the book, my thoughts immediately turned to what is happening now.
