Like all the other date being put out by the gov.t and MSM. My first suspicion is that it is propaganda made to manipulate public opinion. So I'm just asking myself what the hidden agenda is for this one.....

Law and Order is just the latest. Many more have jumped on the proselytzing for the "left" bandwagon. Open Case is another, maybe more subtle but definitely obvious. I watched the Hallmark channel last night. Some good old fashioned good feelings and protagonists living normal lives, trying to do the right thing. Very refreshing.

My father was in a tank battalion in Korea. As a volunteer he did it because he thought it was the right thing to do. What other country in the world has citizenry with that kind of character. However, were he to be portrayed on T.V. on I have no doubt he'd end up looking like some rabid dog of a soldier who killed puppies as a child...

Socialism is enforced equality. But someone has to enforce. Someone has to take all that a country of dynamic, amazing, different people has produced and slice it up into dull, government-approved parcels that go to each according to his need. So much for diversity, right?

This means that no one owns anything except for the guy doing the enforcing of equality, who without fail, feels a lot less strongly about his own equality with the proletariat than he does about the rabble's equality with each other. That's how Fidel Castro ended up on the Forbe's list of richest people.

This guy inevitably gets a little testy when folks step out of line by wanting to own the things they earn, thereby cutting down on his net worth. And by testy, I mean blood-thirsty and murdery.

I used to concede that point. "Yes, it's a nice idea in theory," I'd say, "But it never works in practice. In fact, it's disastrous, deadly, and scoops out people's souls like so many cold lumps of cosmic ice cream, splatted on the sidewalks of humanity. But you're getting the picture."

In the last couple years, I've had to revise that. The truth is that it is not a nice idea, in theory. Well, not if you actually think about what the theory implies.

Conversations with socialists. I have them. A lot.

I have them with that special brand of socialist-- the post-collegiate angsty intellectual who has the luxury of saying Fidel Castro "has some pretty good ideas" because, for him, it's not a national talking point enforced at the muzzle of a gun and the blindfolded brink of a ditch. That kind of socialist.

They're good folks. They truly do want the best for people. They think "equal" necessarily equals "good." They, therefore, want equality enforced.

Sometimes during these conversations, my big-government buddies concede, "All right, so maybe it doesn't always work in practice, but it's a nice thought."

Beware Chavez-istas. You won’t like the future.
