Reds in the White House (among other places)

It may be that Kruschev's famous threat-- "we will bury you"--may yet come to pass. Not by communists swarming into America from the outside, but through the actions of a vanguard of comrades raised from within.

Like a parasite, the seemingly defunct socialism of the Soviet Union left its eggs in a new host even as the previous one died. Now the next generation of Statists has matured, and is clearly sucking the life out of their latest victim.

Think this is overblown rhetoric? It's more accurate than calling Mao Zedong an 'insightful' and 'courageous political philosopher.'

Alinsky's own "Long March" through western institutions is now about complete in America, to the extent we have prominent columnists also praising Chinese autocracy as "reasonably enlightened."

There is a vast gulf between the worldview that spawned the Anglo-American era, and the one that traced a far bloodier road from the Bastille to Beijing. Like other nations before us, we are increasingly in danger of selling our birthright for a mere stew. Such devilish bargains are not easily undone.
