Liberal Logic. Michael Moore. Each an alliterative phrase. One an oxymoron and the other a moron of another type.

Michael Moore, champion of the working class used a non-union crew to film his new documentary, “Capitalism: A Love Story”. A movie in which Moore, who makes his fortune from his movie and book sales, attacks capitalism. Isn’t there a word for this? Perhaps a few…

Review: ‘Capitalism: A Love Story’

It seems that a pillar of the Obamagenda is the redistribution of wealth. To be fair, I admit he warned us of this during his campaign. However, as one who has worked all his life to earn a living, I find this concept abhorrent.  I consider myself to be in good company in this matter.  Thomas Jefferson himself observed:  “The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not.”  That my friends is just common sense.

However, if Mr. Obama would confiscate what I have earned to give to others of his choosing, I beseech him to refrain from the ruse of first running the seized funds through huge socialist, government-run programs.  There, of course, bureaucrats, legislators, politicians, insiders and just plain thieves each siphon off their chunk leaving the remainder to to be sifted through the inefficiencies inherent in any government run program.  The result is that the supposed beneficiaries of Mr. Obama’s generosity receive only the dross that dribbles out the other end and I am left wondering why I work so hard.

Skip the pitiful attempt to legitimize this armed robbery by forced taxation! Give them the grass Mr. President, not the horse crap that results when you process the grass through the government horse!

Why ruin the economy of a perfectly good nation and condemn it to the historical scrap heap of failed socialist states a few decades hence?

Just give ‘em the flippin’ grass!

Here is a great article about the Green Movement from IBDEditorials:

The ‘Green’ Trojan Horse

Domestic Policy: Among the many controversies swirling around the White House’s “green czar,” none is more disturbing than his plan to use the green movement to socialize the economy.

Van Jones, a special adviser to the president, revealed his Trojan-horse strategy during a 2008 interview on leftist Uprising Radio in Los Angeles.

“The green economy will start off as a small subset” of a “complete revolution” away from “gray capitalism” and toward “redistribution of all the wealth,” he said. “And we are going to push it and push it and push it until it becomes the engine for transforming the whole society.”
…he hasn’t been made to answer for his communist beliefs, which are even deeper than first thought.

Trying to change the subject, Jones insisted his work at the White House is “entirely focused on one goal: building clean-energy incentives which create 21st century jobs that improve energy efficiency and use renewable resources.”

That doesn’t tell the full story.

As the president’s “green-jobs czar,” it’s clear Jones has a hidden agenda. Judging from his own words, his environmental concerns appear to be a front for creating a massive new welfare program — complete with paid job training and counseling — for criminals.

The former Oakland, Calif., community organizer has said he wants to “build a pipeline from the prison economy to the green economy,” including hiring parolees to weatherize homes and offices. He secured grants to start a Green Job Corps in Oakland.

Jones’ “green jobs, not jails” program is but a “radical kernel” of what Jones says he wants to reap. He intends to use the green movement as a Trojan horse to socialize the entire economy.

“Right now we say we want to move from suicidal gray capitalism to ‘eco-capitalism’ where at least we’re not fast-tracking the destruction of the whole planet,” Jones said. “Will that be enough? No, it won’t be enough. We want to go beyond the systems of exploitation and oppression altogether.”

Beyond our system of capitalism to communism, is what he means.

Though Obama’s father was a Marxist, there’s no indication the president subscribes to Jones’ vision.

But Obama and Jones share a common background in the same Marxism-steeped faith: Black Liberation Theology, which we first warned voters about years ago. The father of the movement — James Cone — believes that by merging Marxism with the Gospel, African-Americans will be liberated.

“Together,” Cone said, “black religion and Marxist philosophy may show us a way to build a completely new society.”

Cone mentored Obama’s longtime preacher, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, a big fan of Marxist regimes. Wright has made a number of comments over the years that have been described as anti-capitalist and anti-American, and that suggest he believes deep conspiracies drive American politics.

We also warned that it’s dangerous for a presidential aspirant to surround himself throughout his career with a coterie of radicals. They could wind up in the White House making policy.

Van Jones is Exhibit A.
