Diane Watson is a racist Congressional Representative from California’s 33rd District, in Los Angeles. Just over a year ago, she chastised Ward Connerly for his having the nerve to wed a white woman.

She’s telling us now that the only opponents of Barack Obama and his move to socialize America are those who object to socialism because, in her words, “[Barack is] the first President who looks like me.”

In the same breath, she sings the praises of Marxist murderer Che Guevara and Marxist murderer Fidel Castro (who ousted Che).

Hear it for yourself:

Egalitarianism is a fashionable term that in essence means equalization. It is also the main banner under which socialism, including socialism’s little sister environmentalism, flies today.

As a political philosophy, egalitarianism tells us that the legitimate functions of government do extend to such acts as keeping people relatively equal (a task that requires a massive act of governmental compulsion) despite the fact that humans possess varying degrees of ability, skills, intelligence, and, most important of all, ambition.

The late Kurt Vonnegut Jr. persuasively illustrates the sheer folly (and criminality) of egalitarianism in his fine short story Harrison Bergeron, which I recommend (you can read it entirely online via that link; it’s very short).

caduceassmallJust recently, the World Health Organization (WHO) calculated that Britain, with its arrantly collectivized healthcare system, has “as many as 25,000 unnecessary cancer deaths a year because of under-provision of care. Twelve percent of specialists surveyed admitted refusing kidney dialysis to patients suffering from kidney failure because of limits on cash. Waiting lists for medical treatment have become so long that there are now ‘waiting lists’ for the waiting list” (Source).

In Canada, before one can receive proper medical care, one must first be referred to a specialist, and the waiting list for something like a gynecological surgery is “4 to 12 weeks, cataract removal 12 to 18 weeks, tonsillectomy three to 36 weeks and neurosurgery five to 30 weeks. Also, Toronto-area hospitals, concerned about lawsuits, ask patients to sign a legal release accepting that while delays in treatment may jeopardize their health, they nevertheless hold the hospital blameless” (Ibid).

While America trembles precariously close to the economic fringes of outright socialism, we have precious few hours to resolutely return to the valiant ideals of our founding fathers. Aside from political party planks and moral belief systems, our choices are between a man of character whose history is an open book of sacrifice and service AND one who is replete with ongoing discoveries of connections to nefarious associates coupled stunningly with his blatant refusal to reveal any documentation regarding his past.

As you read these words, I earnestly declare to you that I will not be taken quietly into that unfathomable morass of socialistic revolution by Barack Hussein Obama and his cunning puppetmasters. No; I will not go quietly. I will not disgrace the precious history of our venerable forefathers; I will not dishonor the blood that was proudly shed by so many Americans who came before me.
