MORRISON: Kerry's dance partners should concern property owners
By Joyce Morrison
Kerry and Edwards' funders expect their contributions to produce public policy results -- some of which could be devastating to property owners, Joyce Morrison writes today.
OPINION -- Presidential election years can be frightening. The nation’s moral and constitutional values are at risk and our nation can be destroyed from within at a whim. As former President Clinton said about executive orders, "Stroke of the pen. Law of the land. Kinda cool."
Any voter should take it upon himself to connect the dots to see who the candidate’s buddies and contributors are. Are they environmentalists, against property rights and gun control, for abortion and socialism? If they are on the opposite side, red flags and sirens should sound.
"Build unity to take back our country in 2004. Defeat Bush and the Ultra Right" is the slogan found on the website of the Communist Party of the USA.
The Communist Party's slogan, "Take back our country," hit me as being a bit strange. Am I wrong or did I miss something as to the reason we fought some pretty mean battles to protect the USA from Communism?
From the St. Augustine Record, D.P. Heibold writes, "The ‘Top Ten Reasons’ of the Communist party are identical to those of the Democratic party: out-sourcing, homosexual rights, abortion and the like..."
Heibold said he had contacted a spokesman of the Communist Party USA in Georgia who told him, "The CPUSA supports the John Kerry campaign with donations and volunteer effort. We believe that defeating George Bush is the single most important issue this November..."
"Let America be America Again." is one of Kerry’s campaign themes according to Heibold. He said the man who wrote the gloomy poem that is the rest of the slogan also wrote a poem that says: "Goodbye, Christ Jesus, Lord, God, Jehovah, Beat it away from here now. Make way for a new guy with no religion at all -- A real guy named Marx, Communist, Lenin, Peasant, Stalin, Worker, ME -- I said, ME!"
