There&#8217;s a reason I posted it. Anyone besides me remember Lech Walesa?<\/p>\n<p>The Fox News article below is a couple weeks old, but still has validity.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/insider.foxnews.com\/2018\/10\/15\/jobs-not-mobs-stuart-varney-sharp-contrast-between-gop-dems-midterm-messaging\">http:\/\/insider.foxnews.com\/2018\/10\/15\/jobs-not-mobs-stuart-varney-sharp-contrast-between-gop-dems-midterm-messaging<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Democrats are leaning on divisive rhetoric and encouraging mob rule. Using mob rule to get what you want is not something new. Robespierre used it to his advantage to whip up the mob frenzy that sent Louis XIV\u00a0 and his ditzy wife Marie Antoinette to the guillotine. Unfortunately , it backfired on him and he was sent to the same fate by the Council that he had started. Mussolini was hung. Hitler blew his own brains out in his bunker. The Gang of Four in China were arrested, tried, and punished. Stalin&#8217;s iron grip on the USSR eroded with his death from a stroke. It went belly up in 1989. Pol Pot&#8217;s Khmer Rouge thugs were routed by the Vietnamese Army\u00a0after several murderous years, and Cambodia had a new government.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, it is not working well for the Democrats. Brett Kavanaugh did get voted into the bench of the Supreme Court. And Lindsey Graham finally found his feet and gave the Democrats what-for.<\/p>\n<p>As Stuart Varney indicates in the article, so-called \u201cactivism\u201d is more oriented toward mob behavior than anything else, and the Lefterd side of the fence has not displayed any interest in reducing the turmoil.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I haven&#8217;t seen a single leading Democrat say, &#8216;Hey, tone this down, stop this mob rule, stop this confrontation,'&#8221; Varney said on &#8220;Fox &amp; Friends&#8221; Monday. \u2013 article.<\/p>\n<p>No, and you won\u2019t. If this is a continuing trend, and not even one of the Democrats is saying \u2018this is going too far\u2019, then they are complicit. Period. It is a mistake on their part to think it works to their advantage to condone it by not speaking out against it.<\/p>\n<p>There are anti-Trump op-ed pieces in the local newsrag all the time, with no acknowledgement at all that the economy has drastically improved since Trump took office. Nothing. They report the incredible financial deficit, as if none of Trump\u2019s predecessors ever incurred debt. They want the \u201cfree health care for everyone\u201d but no reference to who will pay for it, as if the cash to pay the bills just magically falls out of the sky. I could go on, but I want to keep this short.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m having some solace in watching this episode of \u201cPot Boiler Politics\u201d, knowing that the midterms are only a few days away. It is more important than ever that you vote in every election, even if it&#8217;s a pain in the neck. The Venezuelan rule about voting is that you are only qualified to buy food if you have a voter ID card. And of course, the Soviet Union had only one party running, with a 99% turnout each time, so qualifying to buy food may have meant &#8220;Show your voter ID and ballot ticket&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Stay tuned. The midterm vote is next Tuesday. I expect to see some turmoil, shouting, and more angst, even if it rains buckets. And I believe there will be some turmoil, somewhere.<\/p>\n<p>Buckle your seat belts. It\u2019s gonna be a bumpy ride.
