Hate Goes Out Of Style

As usual, it was nearly impossible for listeners’ calls to get through on my radio shows this past Wednesday, as callers on both sides of the passageway and those in the middle queued up to analyze and comment on the results of the presidential election. Callers from Missouri and Texas to Colorado and California and many places between weighed in. The overriding consensus? The politics of hate are unacceptable, and the result of the extremism controlling the Democratic Party was the loud crack of a *****-slapping by mainstream America.

But it wasn’t just the politics of hate that sounded so sour a note in my audience’s ears. It was the politics of lies, distortions, fear, racial division and intolerance that devastated the once-respected and even honorable party of Franklin Delano Roosevelt and John F. Kennedy. So now the question is: will the ruinous leaders of the Democratic Party—Kennedy, Pelosi, Gore, McAuliffe, Kerry, Carter, Graham and the like—be allowed to continue on the destructive path, or will they be sent packing down the path of political irrelevance to join Tom Daschle in the malodorous scrap heap of hate?

And what of the leftist media? The New York Times, CNN, CBS, NBC, ABC, Los Angeles Times, MSNBC, Boston Globe, San Francisco Chronicle, Denver Post and like-minded media acted as fire support for the deranged Democrats. The distortions and outright lies these outfits employed in their failed attempts to influence their respective audiences rather than inform them, has rightfully cast a shadow over media that truly believes most Americans are easily manipulated morons who are too dim to figure things out on their own. Despite pulling every dirty trick in the book, the leftist media failed and now despise the average American all the more. If my audience is any indication, most Americans are anything but mindless dolts who rely upon Bruce Springsteen, Alec Baldwin, Robert Redford, Michael Moore, Whoopi Goldberg (Kerry said her now infamous hate speech at Radio City Music Hall represented the “heart and soul” of America), Barbra Streisand, Sheryl Crow, the Dixie Chicks, Al Franken, Sean Penn and Susan Sarandon for political wisdom. Which political geniuses within the Democratic Party decided that the shrill opinions of Left Coasters from Hollywood, ensconced in their Malibu beach houses and Beverly Hills mansions, would hold sway over the majority of Americans, remains a mystery. And deranged billionaire financier George Soros isn’t exactly an endearing figure to most Americans. Amusingly, it was pathetic riffraff like Moore and Franken, with their vile hatemongering, who opened America’s eyes as to what the Democratic Party has become.

But perhaps the biggest question is why Democrats thought a socialist Massachusetts (read: Yankee) senator with a penchant for bragging about his medals (a cardinal sin to professional military men) and a billionaire wife could win the presidency while we are at war. It is blatantly clear that the wiser choice would have been a moderate Southerner. You tell me who worked out better for the Dems: Dukakis (liberal Yankee from Taxachusetts) or Clinton (moderate Southerner).

So now the “soul searching” has begun among the maimed and dazed Democrats. Totally bereft of ethical leadership, their ship will continue to drift aimlessly with the tide, their listing vessel becalmed under the broiling sun of scrutiny. Their stores running perilously low, the crew has already set upon themselves in a frenzy of cannibalism brought on by frantic, angry accusations of incompetence. Could they look aft, they would see the discarded carcass of perhaps the one man who might have saved them.

Aye, Captain Lieberman. You were a good and decent man. T’is a shame the scurvy dogs had you walk the plank so early in the voyage.
