    What is to be said about the Irish? 

 I have forgotten now, just where I came across this.
I've had it stuck back in my keepsakes for some years now.  I've kept it because I'm Irish.
I've kept it because this describes me and my life as nearly as few words could.
If you take out "impractical" and replace it with "audacious" it paints me
painfully close.

Tony Miller

♣ ♣ ♣ ♣ ♣ ♣

The utterly impractical, never predictable,
sometimes irascible, quite inexplicable, Irish.

A strange blend of shyness, pride and conceit,
and a stubborn refusal to bow in defeat.

He is spoiling and ready to argue and fight,
yet the smile of a child fills his soul with delight.

His eyes are the quickest to well up with tears,
yet his strength is the strongest to banish your fears.

His hate is as fierce as his devotion is grand,
and there is no middle ground on which he will stand.

He's mild and he’s gentle, he’s good and he’s bad.
He’s proud and he’s humble, he’s happy and sad.

He's in love with the ocean, the earth and the skies,
He’s enamored with beauty wherever it lies.

He's victor and victim, a star and a clod
But mostly he's Irish - in love with his God.

Political Perspective:
    The Communist Party USA supported John Kerry 

Can you believe it??   I can because I research and write political articles.  Indeed it is a fact that the American Communist Party has for every presidential election since 1971 (the year they began endorsing), they have endorsed the Democrat candidate and the entire Democrat Party platform every year since that time, including Obama's candidacy in 2008!  -  this is easily verified, but have you ever heard this from the Leftist News Media such as CNN, the BBC, CNBC, MSNBC, CBS, NBC, ABC???  I believe it is a SOCIALIST CONSPIRACY.

           Consider the following facts and article, then ask this question: 
 HAS THIS BEEN MENTIONED BY THE LIBERAL (SOCIALIST) MEDIA?


Article By D.P. HEIMBOLD
St. Augustine
Publication Date: 07/14/04

http://www.staugustine.com/stories/071404/opi_2435145.shtml

The southern Democrats must be thrilled by the news that the Communist Party of The United States of America, (CPUSA), is actively and publicly supporting the election of  John Kerry.
 
The CPUSA has made available on its Web site, cpusa.org, an advertisement entitled Top Ten Reasons To Defeat Bush. This advertisement can be downloaded.  The communist party urges readers to place this ad in local newspapers throughout the country to defeat President Bush.
 
Remarkably, the "Top Ten Reasons" of the Communist party are identical to those of the Democratic party; out-sourcing, homosexual rights, abortion and the like.  At first, I thought "this is only a coincidence." The Democratic party of the United States couldn't be in lock step with the Marxists! So, I wrote to a spokesman of the CPUSA in Georgia and here is part of his letter:

"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 ..."

Next, I discovered that one of Kerry's campaign themes is "Let America be America Again." This slogan was borrowed from a Communist poet, Langston Hughes. This is not common knowledge to the average American. "Let America be America Again" sounds good but is a rambling, gloomy poem. Interestingly, another poem by Langston goes as follows;   "Goodbye, Christ Jesus, Lord, God, Jehova, Beat it on 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!"

Then, if this was not enough to convince me that the Democratic party has lost it, a third discovery!
A Vietnam vet group took a trip to Communist Hanoi to investigate a report that John Kerry was in the "Hanoi Hall of Fame." Yes, there is a museum in Hanoi with a section dedicated to foreign activists who help defeat the United States Military in Vietnam. Of course, you would expect Jane Fonda's picture to be there. But, alas, there is John Kerry's picture shaking the hand of a communist official and receiving an award!

Never has there been such a tragedy. Never has there been such a threat to America. The Democratic party has been taken over by the far, far left!  Not only the Communists but the homosexual activists and Atheists (all Democrats) who are appalled that George Bush is a professing Christian, married to a woman! They are enraged that the president wants a Constitutional Amendment to protect traditional marriage between a man and woman.  (Some Democrats claim they want to protect marriage and family - but they still pull the Democrat lever in the voting booth.  WHY IS THIS?  Because they can't let go of that fat Welfare Check?  Because they believe in Forced Unionism?  These people are not the Christians they claim to be, they are HYPOCRITES!  They are not honest people willing to make their own way in the world - they are two-faced leaches living  off the rest of us.)

Then we have the (Communist controlled) ACLU running to a federal activist judge with every piece of legislation that doesn't fit into their leftist agenda. They support every Democratic socialist whim. The removal of the Ten Commandments is their top priority!

Why can't our children read? The liberal (Socialist) NEA runs the government schools. You can't mention God or the Ten Commandments, but you can teach Islam and have the children pray to Allah and pass out condoms. The teachers union is solidly behind the Democratic candidate, John Kerry. (Need more be said?)

How about the AFL-CIO? Solidly "Democratic". How about the press? Solidly behind the Left.
Case in point: Viacom owns CBS and Dan Rather. Dan is really the president of the American Leftist Establishment. Every night Dan informs the country what we, the troops and the president did wrong that day. His boss, Viacom, just happens to own the company that published Richard Clark's attack on George Bush and company. Clarke was the hero of the 9-11 hearing. Viacom pushed up the publication date of Clark's book to coincide with the hearings. Oh, by the way, Viacom not only owns CBS and Dan Rather, but MTV! Yes, the same MTV that featured Janet Jackson's breast at the Super Bowl half time (and who works overtime promoting leftist Democrats like John Kerry)!

Hollywood? There might be one or two votes for Bush from the filmmakers. But don't count on it. Michael Moore's "Fahrenheit 9/11" propaganda film hurt the president. Impressionable youth fall victim to lies. But, not to worry. Truth means nothing to the Left. The quality of character of the Hollywood crowd is best illustrated by the recent antics of the starlet Britney Spears. After her 24-hour marriage, Britney is now engaged to a loser who left his unmarried, pregnant girlfriend and
little child. There was not one eyebrow raised by the Hollywood-infatuated Network News. This is normal behavior for the Looney Left.

The deck is really stacked against the re-election of President Bush. Now even the mass murderer Saddam Hussein agrees with Kennedy and Kerry that the president is a criminal. Before the election in November the Leftist press will clean up Hussein to look like a saint and George W. Bush a gangster.

John Kerry promises to save the union by going to the UN. Kerry may have to deal with Muslim Kofi Annan's son, Kojo, who received millions in "consultant" fees from Swiss company, Cotecna, which oversaw Iraq's Oil-For-Food program. Some of the $20.3 billion that was funneled through the "family run" UN program ended up in al Taqwa and Asat Trust, two of al-Qaida's front organizations - unny, there are al-Qaida in Florida and the UN, but not in Iraq! (More Democrat lies). And this not to mention to the France and cronies of French president Jaques Chiraq as well as Germany and Russia.  Great "friends"?  NOT!  Americans like me WILL REMEMBER!

Alas, but who is chopping off heads in Iraq? While the bulk of our National Guard are overseas fighting terrorists, every leftist weirdo is coming out of the closet to hi-jack the November
presidential election.  Again, all Democrats.

The question is: What are the "real" southern Democrats going to do (if there are any left)? Will they join the CPUSA, NEA, ACLU and a host of other radical leftist groups?  Or will they help save the country from this treasonous mob?

                     POST-ELECTION UPDATE!  
Hurray for our side!  Republicans and George "Dubya" Bush won the election in convincing style in spite of all the decadent Hollywood crowd and their other Socialist sidekick Democrats could do!  This of course put the Leftist Media, the Unions, the Atheists and the homosexual lobby are all in a twit.  Enough Christians finally woke out of their apathy and went to the polls to make the biggest difference, but looks like they went back to sleep. 
     But no surprise.  Ever since the election the Liberal Socialists (Democrats) have undermined everything G.W. has tried to do to protect us from the fanatical Islamist terrorists, given renewed hope and encouragement to them worldwide (especially in Iraq and Iran), belittled him and made him (and us and our country) disliked by much of the world - all in their mindless quest for power and control.  Lets all get active and try to stop some of this treasonous crap.  Let's renew the fight to stop the Liberal Left from continuing the murder of Abortion and keeping God out of our schools, our public places and from trying to run our very lives!!


The "Liberal" Democrats and the CPUSA scare the hell out of me!  Let's all donate all we can, get out and get to work again to Elect Conservative Republicans to Congress in 2006!

                                                  An update on
        Hillary Clinton’s “Vast Right Wing Conspiracy”

                                                          
                                              HILLARY CLINTON

           ...her infamous quote above is just her feint to conceal the REAL CONSPIRACY, and it is
                                                      NOT A JOKING MATTER:

                      THE SOCIALIST CONSPIRACY
                        OF THE DEMOCRAT PARTY 


                                       by Richard Moore, © 2004


          In the midst of one of Bill Clinton’s many reprehensible “peccadillos” while in office in the mid-1990's, his wife Hillary “graciously allowed” an “interview”, (a pre-arranged affair) replete with softball questions from the interviewer, one of the many Liberal Democrats among their media supporters / apologists, 92% of whom are Liberal Democrats by their own poll and admission. During this exclusive “interview”, Hillary avowed in artificial candor and as if outraged, that all the uproar was “contrived by” and the product of “the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy”. Intelligent Americans with a dab of common sense knew immediately just what a laughable and patent falsehood that claim was.

          Hillary Clinton used the phrase “Vast Right Wing Conspiracy” for several purposes.  The politically awake among us know this was meant to throw attention away from the REAL conspiracy - the Liberal (Socialist) Conspiracy, and away from her degenerate husband's despicable acts with a White House intern in the toilet facility of the Oval Office.  She spat it out with a straight face, expecting it to have her desired effect of having the Leftist Media pick up and run with this ridiculous assertion as if it had a scintilla of credibility, thereby damaging the Conservatives and their viewpoints.  But in their immediate situation her purpose was to get her adulterous, prevaricating husband off the political hot seat during the Monica Lewinsky affair - all while turning attention away from the actual, decades old, genuine conspiracy of the Liberal (Socialist) Anti-American agenda. Indeed, Hillary’s spurious contention almost rose to the notoriety of her laughable (and Socialist) contention that “it takes a ‘village’” (her euphemism for “government”), to raise children - parents not even getting honorable mention.  Any self-respecting American wife would have been filing divorce papers, not giving “interviews”.  But of course few on either side believe a genuine marriage in the traditional sense is what the Clintons have, or ever intended. These two wrote the book on “political marriages” (arrangements, expediencies, agreements, etc) and many are those who seriously question just how it could have happened that Chelsea came about.
 
          Initially this Hillary/Media contrived “ vast right wing conspiracy” seemed to have the effect of hurting Conservatives as intended, the Liberal Media doing their dutiful best to put this outlandish whopper over on the American Public.  However, the people they often refer to as the “Plodding Herd” or the “Unwashed Masses” are not always completely fooled by such fabrications in spite of the best efforts of these Democrat propagandists.  After only a few days the thing began to be laughed into silence.

          Much to their chagrin, the allegation has now come to have the reverse effect from that intended. It was first picked up on by the TV talk show hosts who, regardless of their personal political positions, find it impossible not to use the outrageous or fail to make the most of such juicy morsels of titillating humor. Instead of enhancing the agenda of the Liberals (Socialists), it brought some measure of much deserved discredit and ultimately has had a reverse effect. Not surprisingly, the biased news “analysts” at ABC, CBS, NBC and CNN soon after and ever since, have squelched this statement and tried to let it die a quiet death. Conservative pundits on the other hand, have managed to keep a breath of life in it, and a large measure of credit for this goes to that fearless, candid and audacious gal Ann Coulter (I think I’m in love with her) whose book “TREASON” I heartily recommend.
 
          One significant side effect of this outlandish statement by Hillary was some of the confusion which resulted, which was surprising to many on both sides of the political spectrum.  Even today, some 9 years later, some average Conservatives are still asking where they can “sign up for the Right Wing thing Hillary was complaining about” and where they can get more information on it. I heard just such a question put from one Conservative to another just the other day, the one asking was serious, and the one who very patiently answered, laughed at the question. My feel for the thing is that many weak-minded Liberals are wondering some of the same things but for different reasons.  My answer to Conservatives having this question is to get involved locally, and to visit their County Voter Registration Office. Go sign up and vote the Liberals out of office at every level, because the they will still be trying to do such things as get “day passes” for convicted felons at the prisons on election day (they are doing exactly this as we speak, and have hired felons to go door to door getting personal information from voters), so that criminals can fraudulently be let out to go vote “democratic.” The Leftist Media, in their selective coverage, will not tell you that such as this and other illegal votes, were cast and included in the 2000 presidential election, but this too is a verifiable fact. Illuminating to say the least, and on several counts.

The Real Conspiracy:

          An update of this nature would not be complete however, without providing at least a small measure of clarity as to the true and actual conspiracy afoot in our country - the Liberal (Socialist, Atheist) Conspiracy.  And since Leftists such as Hillary Clinton have provided the phraseology for us, we might as well just refer to their treasonous conspiracy as the “Vast Left Wing Conspiracy”.  Sadly, in this phrase truth and fact reigns supreme, and about half of all Americans are blissfully unaware of it.
 
          For decades these Socialists, calling themselves “Liberals”, or "Progressives" to disguise their atheistic Socialist ideology and the fact that the Socialist takeover of the Democrat Party is complete and total, have for years now, with far too much success, been in the process of tearing down our U. S. Constitution by legislating it out of existence bit by bit in their relatively recent off and on 40+ year control of Congress, while systematically removing God, prayer and the 10 Commandments from our schools, speeches, our public and private places, and from our national dialogue.

           They have and continue to promote an all-powerful, central government to be controlled by their Socialist Elite. To this end they have bought and continue to buy the votes of the apathetic, ignorant and gullible among us with their now decades-old Welfare giveaways using our tax dollars, knowing this replaces the bread-winner (the father) in the home, tears down the family unit and destroys the self-respect and work ethic of especially our minorities - thereby taking de facto  control over their lives.

           The Liberals have raised taxes on individuals, small businesses and corporations (whose shares are owned by all of us) incrementally and excessively, taking virtually half the wages/profits workers and small businesses would otherwise be bringing home at the present time - or using to create more jobs.  Indeed, far more than half of the profits of Corporations - as much as 85-90% at one time has been usurped by these Leftists - and then they have the audacity to cry; "big corporations are outsourcing our jobs overseas!"  Well they know exorbitant taxation is one of the big reasons why.  Have you noticed that your dividends many of us are trying to live on have shrunk to tiny amounts due to double taxation - once when you made the money to begin with and again when you were paid dividends?  My friends, that is just one of the countless results of the SOCIALISM of today's DEMOCRAT PARTY. 

          These Liberals have for years now, promoted “alternate” (Queer-homosexual) lifestyles and Atheism by teaching it in our public schools and passing out condoms while suppressing and forbidding the scriptural teachings of abstinence - this agenda being implemented by their dominant, all-powerful, Democrat-controlled Teachers Unions, and they are preventing private School Choice programs which provide low income families successful alternatives to the dangerous, drug infested and failed public schools that continue to graduate students who cannot read. Meanwhile those lucky enough to be financially able to afford to send their children to private schools are having to pay DOUBLE for the education of their children (for expensive private school and again in taxes for the failed public schools they do not use, which teach Anti-Americanism and Socialist ideologies).  Fairness?  Where?

          Among other outrages, these Liberals, through their Democrat appointed Liberal (Socialist) activist judges, have directly caused the legalized murder of millions of babies through Abortion, which continues on a wholesale basis as we speak.  Moreover, they are now making a concerted effort to destroy marriage and the family historically defined as between a man and a woman by legalizing Gay marriages and filibustering Republican attempts to pass a Constitutional Amendment protecting age-old traditional marriage.  One such effort has just failed due to the opposition and votes against it by the Democrats in the Senate.  Have those reading this article stopped to consider the impact on our taxation and the gigantic increase in all the Welfare programs this will open up to homosexuals and lesbians??  Are you now ready to finance their filthy, despicable lifestyles??   All part of the Socialist agenda - the REAL Conspiracy afoot in our country.

     And on a security / international basis both at home and abroad, these Liberals are attempting to undermine the War against Terrorism, to turn our heretofore reliable allies even farther against us for political gain, and force us to pull out of Iraq in the very same treasonous ways these same Socialists forced a pull-out from Viet Nam, which, thanks to them, is now a Communist country alongside China and Cuba.  Thank you John Kerry, thank you Ted Kennedy (the Chapaquidick Kid), Hanoi Jane Fonda, and all the other Liberal (SOCIALIST) Democrats of their ilk.

          Millions of gullible and apathetic Americans have actually bought into the incessant Liberal lies such as “Republicans are for the rich” and “against the working man.”  To believe that votes should not be bought and paid for by Welfare giveaways, and that all citizens should work for their livelihood like everybody else if they are able to, is to believe the same way our Founding Fathers believed, the way that made us great in the first place.

          To hold that every American has the right to work at any job he wants and is qualified for, is the correct, common sense, moral position.  Forced Unionism is not only wrong, it is an unAmerican, unconstitutional abomination!  No American should have to go hat in hand to the Union Fat Cats and have to buy a job or be required to join some union and then pay automatic, forced Union dues which are then spent in lining the pockets of the Union Fat Cats and spent for the Democrats to promote a Socialist Agenda which goes against their most basic fundamental beliefs.  This is nothing but yet another form of Socialist tyranny, another tool of the treasonous Left, and must be purged from our American way of life by the passage of a National Right to Work law (which the Liberal Democrats will fight ferociously). Unions had a place back at the turn of the last century, and justifiably forced needed changes especially in the area of child labor. But in my adult lifetime (since the end of WW II), unions with their featherbedding, strikes, exclusionism and obstructionism along with their "do as little work as you can get away with" attitudes, have been an American disgrace and a relic of the distant past, a stumbling block to competitiveness and innovation in the world marketplace, and have for years been nothing but a tool of the Socialist Democrat Party. Indeed this mindless unionism came within a whisker of causing the collapse of our entire U. S. automobile manufacturing industry and several others in the 1960's.  Just another element of the Socialist Conspiracy of the Democrat Party.

          The simple fact is that workers willing to put forth a fair day’s work for a fair day’s pay have no trouble getting or keeping good paying jobs according to the ebb and flow of the World Economy under which we have had to live, and this has been so since beginning back in the mid 1940's.  On a personal level, my entire working life has been a verification of this fact.  NAFTA, opposed by the unions and passed during Bill Clinton’s administration, has serious drawbacks crafted into it by the Liberals to be sure.   We need Free Trade, but NAFTA was not about free trade, it is about trade favoritism, job sellouts and and company/job transfer by the bleeding heart Liberals to the "poor under-developed country of Mexico."  Canada was included to draw just enough votes from the few "moderate" Republicans to pass it in the form it was passed. 
          But it is misleading to believe that genuine Free Trade Agreements are a failure or that we don’t have to continue to compete using fair trade agreements on the world market, most of which is painful in many aspects as parity is sifted out between the industrialized and developing countries. The Democrat-controlled unions are a stumbling block to our progress along this irrevocable and unavoidable path.  A fair trade agreement was necessary.  Nafta was not fair.  It was not fair to American workers, Mexican workers, American businesses, or the American consumer. 

          The Democrat-passed NAFTA agreement has caused the loss of jobs, the loss of whole companies and manufacturing facilities, and the transfer of wealth from us to Mexico's ruling elite.  American marketshare in Mexico has not increased so as to offset the loss of marketshare of American companies in this country to the cheap Mexican imports.  And sadly, the Mexican worker (who was supposed to greatly benefit) is still making little more than the $1.50 per hour he was making before this odious agreement was signed - an agreement which was designed from the get-go as a vehicle for the Democrat/Socialist-inspired transfer of our tax dollars and market potential to Mexico, with their secondary goal of  buying the votes of the 33 million illegal Mexican aliens now in this country.  We have to hope they can see how they are being made fools of by the Leftist Democrat machine.  And note well, that the lies of the Democrats that "it is the big corporation's fault" are intended only to cover the fact that what was to go to the Mexican worker in the form of increased wages is in fact going into the pockets of Mexico's RULING ELITE as has been going on in their country their whole history.  Their word for it is MORTIDA (Government skimming and graft).  Mexican President Vincente Fox and his party is NO DIFFERENT than the other party, the PRN.
        Free Trade Agreements are supposed to mean more trade and more trade means more jobs and more high-paying jobs in the long run, resulting in fairness, equity and a better life for citizens of both countries.  NAFTA missed that mark, as was intended by the leftists' agenda of "redistribution of wealth" - a bedrock tenet of Socialism (Liberalism).  All a part of the REAL conspiracy - the agenda of the Socialist (not "Liberal") Democrats. But a REAL, FAIR and BALANCED free trade agreement which will include the countries of South America is absolutely necessary, long overdue, and making a political football of it as Liberal Democrats are doing should not be rewarded on election day. I am at least encouraged that this may be one area where there seems to be a measure of agreement between Conservative Republicans and the handful of "moderate"  Democrats remaining.  Let's keep a close watch on this issue!
          A complete treatise on the decadent, treasonous and far too successful Socialist agenda of the "Liberal" Democrats would be far too lengthy to provide in this short article.  Conservatives understand what is afoot in the land, but other true and patriotic Americans must WAKE UP before it is too late.

    The definition of a "YELLOW DOG DEMOCRAT" 
                                        (seined from the Internet)

This expression is one heard bandied about for as long as I can remember (and that is a long time), not only in the South, but all over the country.  While there may be those who disagree with the terminology and/or the conclusions of some, there is little difference in the basic meaning and understanding  of the term, regardless of political affiliation.   There are millions of them, but most are allowing themselves to be misguided while other such Democrats lack the character or intelligence to admit to being one.  There is a lot of interesting things on the internet, some actual and factual and some reflecting an opinion not necessarily based on anything else.  We provide this item in the (probably useless) hope of promoting some inward evaluation among those whom this expression defines, as well as others:

     To illustrate the saying "he is a Yellow Dog Democrat", the following occurred back during the last presidential election;  I was getting gas for my tractor at a service station in a small city in the South when I noticed a paradox.  Actually it sort of hit me between the eyes.  An older gentleman, obviously a farmer, was gassing up on the other side of the pumps ahead of me, and I could see the bumper of his pickup truck.  It had no tailgate and the bed of it was smeared with cow manure.  On the left side of the bumper was a sticker which read "Gore for President".  "On the other side (the right side - pun intended) was a sticker which proclaimed "No New Taxes!", and about in the middle was another which read, "Put Prayer Back in Schools".   There could hardly be a more contradictory message in these three stickers, since new and ever higher taxes to support more and ever-growing Welfare payments in return for the votes of malingerers and their wannabees is and has been a basic plank of the Democrat Party for many years, and also because it is the Democrats in Congress along with their union supporters  and the activist Socialist judges they have appointed for life, who are the very ones who are promoting Atheism and who have now removed the Ten Commandments and abolished school prayer.
     I tried, but I just couldn't help myself.  I said "Hi-dy" to the man and continued, "Sir I am confused.  One of your bumper stickers indicates that you are a Democrat and will vote accordingly, while the others give well-known positions of the Republicans.  I know it's none of my business, but would you kindly explain to me exactly why it is that you are a Democrat?"
     The old gentleman looked at me steadily for a long moment, then obviously being taken aback and struggling for a credible answer, stepped back, shifted on his feet and replied, "Well... well now... ah... well... well 'y God I'm a Democrat 'cause my Daddy was a Democrat.  And uh...  uh... an' because my Grand-daddy was a Democrat and his'n before him!" 
     Realizing that it would be absolutely useless to delve further farther into the man's tunnel-like thought processes, and being somewhat taken aback myself at this mindless, dogmatic response, I replied, "Well then Sir, I sincerely hope your Daddy don't go jump off a cliff because you would be right behind him and I fear for your safety!"  And so, being finished filling my can I walked inside to pay my bill, leaving him standing there mouth open and looking confused.
     No wonder this country is teetering on the brink of Socialism I thought to myself.  I didn't know whether to be mad at him or to feel sorry for him.  Still don't.  But I am indeed mad at the Socialists who have taken over the once good and mostly Christian Democrat Party, put a ring in the nose of such as this otherwise good man, and is now jerking him around.  After all, I was once a Democrat myself before I wised up to what is really going on.  Here was an otherwise upstanding man, no doubt a sincere Christian man, the "salt of the earth" so to speak, who in his dogmatic, closed-minded and apathetic  ignorance, almost literally had a big ring in his nose with the fingers of the likes of John Kerry, Ted Kennedy, Hillary Clinton, Jesse Jackson, Tom Dashcle (and now this Reid Leftist), et al, crooked in the ring and jerking him along with their tired old slogans designed for just such dim-witted dolts as him.  Here indeed was a bona fide YELLOW DOG DEMOCRAT - as opposed to these Democrat "Elites's" doing the jerking and who hold genuine ideological SOCIALIST BELIEFS.
      Needless to say, the experience made me both sad and depressed, but it did serve to wake me up and get me more active politically than I had been.  I spent more time and money on Republican campaigns and patriotic, Christian, Conservative causes that year than I ever had, and continue to do so.  With so many basically good people like that ignorant, dogmatic, indifferent old toot, it is obvious that this country and all Americans are in deep do-do. 
     As to the definition of a Yellow Dog Democrat, it is the direct opposite of an ideological (Liberal-Socialist) Democrat.  A Yellow Dog Democrat is one who either in ignorance, indifference, laziness or stupidity, refuses to keep himself open-minded and politically up to date and informed by measuring all he hears or reads using truth, verifiable facts and common sense - rather than the lies and distortions of the Leftist Democrat hierarchy and their cronies in the  Leftist Media - and who then dutifully and robot-like, casts his vote with others of his ilk, votes which tear down his country and are destroying our individual rights and our Constitution along with our (and his) Christian religious beliefs and the ability to exercise them - all the very things he himself basically believes in.  A pitiful paradox.  No, much worse.
     I cannot feel pity or sorrow for Yellow Dog Democrats, but I do feel disgust and disrespect for them.  They are not part of the problem, they ARE the problem. Because without them the ideological Socialist Democrats, calling themselves "Liberals," would have their power and treasonous agenda squelched or severely hampered.  I for one, will cast both categories of Leftist Democrats out of my circle of friends, and have nothing further to do with them.  They are slapping my face and trying to make a fool of me.  They are enemies of my country, of my way of life, and of my Christian religion.  Therefore I consider them what they are.   My enemies, as well.
