“stop this creeping subversion of a free society”

Today I caught a few moments of Rush Limbaugh reading from an article by Quin Hillyer. I share below some of the article. One thing that captured my attention is the suggestion by Hillyer that is will take “very focused, very intelligent, very skillful actions by conservatives to stop this creeping subversion of a free society.”

Reading the entire article left me feeling unsettled. I wonder how many Americans will be focused enough to do their part to keep the America as we have known it. How many will become accustomed to hearing how many more trillions of dollars will be shelled out to any company or group that says it needs the money? How many Americans will care that the media force feeds us propaganda disguised as news? How many will care that there is a moral decline that threatens to be an avalanche to take us down from within?

When I was a young girl I heard a lot of talk about communism. I remember hearing a story about a teacher that was replaced by a very pretty, new teacher. The new teacher told the class one day that the American Flag needed to be shared by all. The flag was taken down and cut into little pieces so that each student would have a portion of the flag for their very own. So, with the snipping up of the flag, there no longer was a flag. After all these years, this story has stayed with me.

The slicing up of the American Flag… the erosion of conservative rights. Some reading my post will think I am over reacting. I say no. And I can only hope and pray that Americans will join together as a united force to have the ‘very skillful actions’ necessary to keep the America as we have known it from being taken down from within.

Saul Alinsky Takes the White House
By Quin Hillyer

The erosions of conservative rights will be incremental. Each one will have its own justification. Each one will be supported by the establishment media. Each one will be timed so as to allow the general public to become accustomed to it, to accept it as unremarkable, or even to come to regard it as a public good for the sake of keeping conservative “troublemakers” from fomenting disorder.

And the Obamessiah, still speaking frequently to stadia full of admirers, will provide a tone of reasoned moderation, combined with further appeals to hope, in order to justify it all.

These are the sorts of things Alinskyites do. These are the sorts of tactics used by ACORN, at whose conferences Obama himself regularly taught seminars on “power.” These are the sorts of policies favored by the academic left, Obama’s old milieu — the policies that favor speech codes and stolen campus newspapers and the firing of faculty for “offensive” remarks.

Conservatives have fought things like this for years already, of course. But they’ve never fought it while the left controlled so many of the levers of power, and certainly not when the left was led by such a charismatic and near cult-inspiring leader who was so smart, so well steeped in these stratagems, and so fully supported by a Fourth Estate up whose legs warm feelings run every time he waxes eloquent.

It will take very focused, very intelligent, very skillful action by conservatives to stop this creeping subversion of a free society. This is a whole different political battlefield than any on which we’ve fought before. And we haven’t yet found our Omar Bradley.
