How Olivia de Havilland and Ronald Reagan saved Hollywood--and America--from Communism

On Olivia de Havilland’s 101st birthday [July 1, 1916], she should be remembered for being the first Hollywood liberal to publicly expose and to call for an end to the alliance with Communists and fellow-travelers. She asked Hollywood actors to choose between being advocates for liberal democracy, and giving support to the Soviet Union’s line during the start of what became the Cold War. That effort deserves to be celebrated, and de Havilland praised for her courage and the integrity of her action.

The current state of affairs and its parallels to the fall of Rome proves that "the essence of freedom is the proper limitation of government"

Many Americans would be surprised to learn that the word "democracy" does not appear in the Declaration of Independence or the U.S. Constitution, nor does it appear in any of the constitutions of the fifty states. The Founders did everything they could to keep us from having a Democracy!

Only a Bush can beat a Clinton?

...it's almost enough to make me wonder why we don't just scrap the pretense of the United States being a democracy at all and instead embrace the truth — that, at least when it comes to the nation's highest office, we're now a nepotistic oligarchy.

It'll be turn-key tyranny

NSA WHISTLEBLOWER:
Once he reached the conclusion that the NSA's surveillance net would soon be irrevocable, he said it was just a matter of time before he chose to act. "What they're doing" poses "an existential threat to democracy", he said.

Recognition of the “other” is missing in Arab culture

Salim Mansur, QMI Agency

Liberals:
Only the politically correct, and they are the majority in the contemporary West, remain surprised of how quickly the so-called “Arab spring” has turned into an “Arab frenzy” and is headed into an “Arab inferno.”
The Problem:
The problem is culture. Arab culture, despite tremendous changes that have occurred elsewhere in the world, remains resilient in adhering to traditional values of patriarchy and the tribal order of father (leader) knows what is best for his tribe or nation.

The Arab League consists of 21 states and the Palestinian Authority. There is not one single democracy in this collection of Arab states, and the predominant reason for the absence of democracy among Arabs is culture.

Democracy is not merely an election, and a representative party with majority support holding power.

For democracy to work, the prerequisite is a culture in which the people recognizes the “other” — irrespective of how the “other” is defined in terms of ethnicity or religion or gender — as equal, and their interests and aspirations as legitimate.

This recognition of the “other” is missing in Arab culture...
Arab world a relic of history

Democracy? Hell no!

The word "Democracy" does NOT appear in The Declaration of Independence or the U.S. Constitution, nor does it appear in any of the constitutions of the 50 states! The Founders did everything they could to keep us from having a Democracy.

James Madison (known as "The Father of the Constitution"):
Democracy is the most vile form of government... democracies have ever been spectacles of turbulence and contention: have ever been found incompatible with personal security or the rights of property: and have in general been as short in their lives as they have been violent in their deaths. Source

Chavez shutting down 34 privately-owned Venezuelan radio stations in the name of "free speech" and "democracy"

“Political language,” Orwell argued, was “designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind.” Source
George Orwell claimed that there was something more calculated at work when politicians begin to claim for example that “Slavery is Freedom” or that “Hate is Love,” or in Mao Tse Tung’s words, that “Compulsion is Voluntary.” Source
In August 1st article from Reuters we hear that
  • Chavez says stations no longer belong to 'bourgeoisie'

  • Calls closures part of effort to democratize airwaves
He says, furthermore, that this is his way of preserving democracy and free speech. Think about this next time the Democrats start talking about the "fairness doctrine" or, what they've cleverly started talking about instead, "localism" and new FCC regulations...

Here's more of what Chavez is doing according to Reuters:
  • Another 120 radio stations were being investigated for administrative irregularities

  • Venezuela's attorney general presented this week draft legislation that would establish prison sentences for anyone who provides false information that harms the interests of the state
Mr. President, Keep the Airwaves Free

REVOLUTION

With the election of Barack Obama as president, the liberals have launched a massive, two-front offensive they believe will end in victory. They have judged that our public education system is so degraded that only a few Americans are left who even understand what a democracy is, and how the free market actually works. They are convinced that the majority of Americans are too frightened by the current recession to care about preserving the principles that made us the most powerful, productive and innovative country the world has ever known. In short, the liberals are reaching for victory because they believe that history now is on their side.

The speed of their offensive is breathtaking.
