The “Wise Old Owl” and the Timid Old Mouse.

Social commentary / March 8, 2019 March 8, 2019

Being a one party state has not been unique for the State of Vermont.

For nearly 100 years after the Civil War, up until 1962 Vermont was a bedrock for the Republican Party. The “Party of Lincoln”. Up until the 1950’s the only division was that the Republican Party itself had divided into “conservative and liberal wings.

George Akin, Republican Governor 37-41. 34 years as a Senator from 41-75. He was a progressive Republican.

It was during Nixon’s first term concerning the Vietnam war that he stated…(paraphrasing) ‘declare victory and get out’.

He spent $17.04 on his last reelection campaign. He was the Dean of the Senate. And like many Republicans then and now was often not in lockstep with his own party’s stated agenda.

Vermont’s transition from Red to blue continued when in 1975 Pat Leahy was elected to fill the retiring Akin’s seat.

1975 – present

He is now the “Dean of the Senate. He is a solid Liberal, a Catholic in name only, Batman movie extra, and a Democrat party apparatchik.

He saw where the wind was blowing. In Vermont and his political party. All the boxes are checked. Pro-choice abortion, against school vouchers, favors increased taxes and minimum wage, pro unions, in favor of gun control, all in on the climate change scam etc.

He’s also believes in a “Living Constitution”

Senators Chuck Schumer and Patrick Leahy claimed that newly confirmed Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch was not in the “legal mainstream.” They were referring to the “living Constitution” approach to constitutional interpretation. That interpretative approach, still thriving today and embraced by the liberal left, says that the U.S. Constitution should be a document that judges regard as one “that evolves, changes, over time, and adapts to new circumstances, without being formally amended.”

Pat Leahy knows his Senate seat is secure for as long as he wants it. Vermont is as solidly democrat blue today as it was republican red a long, long time ago.

He has to see what is happening to the Country, apparently he’s fine with it. One thing Democrats don’t do even when you have the clout of seniority is to question in anyway the Party agenda.

In Hong Kong the people know exactly what living under a Communist dictatorship is all about and they want no part of it.

But…

Western civilization turning into a dumpster fire.

1944

In 1944 America did dodge another bullet when Roosevelt dumped Henery Wallace as his Vice President.

Henery Wallace would fit right in and would be one of the front runners today.

Give Tiger Woods credit . Tumble from the highest peak to the deepest latrine. Lose your wife and family. Lose your sponsors. Lose most of your friends., (with one notable exception apparently). Suffer very public humiliation for over a decade. And have no one to blame but yourself.

He had the choice, wallow in self pity and die alone, broke and forgotten. Or…pull yourself out of the cesspool, grit your teeth, not care what people say about you. Have faith in yourself and perhaps a higher power and the results can be astounding.

The Christchurch NZ. Mosque Massacre shocked the world last month.

Which in the beginning it was the perfect fit for the Left wing narrative but in the weeks following the incident has faded from the media. Of course Christians are martyred and persecuted everyday.

“and you will be hated by all for my name’s sake. But the one who endures to the end will be saved.” Matthew 10:22

“If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first.” John 15:18

All lives should matter but in today’s world some lives seem matter more then others.

New Zealand has banned the possession and distribution of the Christchurch killers manifesto.

Of course once something is on the internet the genie is out of the bottle.

And the Collapse of Western Civilization.
