Will the Left Send America Into Civil War?

The only “morality” or “rules” that the atheistic collectivists led by President Obama believe in is "victory at all costs." This was the ethical system of the Bolsheviks, the Maoists, the Nazis, and every other sibling group. So when Obama begins to take some hard political hits and his reelection prospects look increasing dim, the thuggish nature of his allies is beginning to emerge.

While it is one thing for union bosses or House members from districts so safely gerrymandered that reelection is automatic to play the class-warfare card, it is quite another thing when the Vice President of the United States tells organized labor: "You are the only folks keeping the barbarians from the gates. The other side has declared war on Labor’s house and it’s about time we stand up!"

These people are playing a dangerous game and they know it. In 1991 when Rodney King was arrested, race-mongers in public office deliberately fanned the anger of blacks in Los Angeles. Mayor Tom Bradley said, "We will not tolerate the savage beating of our citizens by a few renegade cops." Maxine Waters called it a “rebellion” and an “insurrection” and she chanted to the crowd, “No justice, no peace!” The result was a devastating riot which left 53 people dead, 2,000 injured, and 1,100 buildings destroyed.

Representative Andre Carson of Indiana, speaking at the Congressional Black Caucus, said of the Tea Party: “Some of them in Congress right now with the Tea Party movement would love to see you and me … hanging on a tree.” Meanwhile the very real voter intimidation in Philadelphia by Black Panther goons, caught by video recordings, remains mysteriously un-prosecuted by Obama’s Justice Department. 

The race-war mentality is an absurdity obvious to calm minds. Herman Cain is the favorite of many Tea Party members and Congressman Allen West is not far behind. Dr. Thomas Sowell is one of the most respected Libertarian thinkers in America. Alan Keyes is one of the most eloquent foe of abortion in America and a passionate defender of those values that the Tea Party cherishes. And all of these men are black.

In fact, the political opponents of Obama include many outspoken women such as Sarah Palin and Michele Bachmann, Hispanics such as Marco Rubio and Susana Martinez, and folks from the Indian subcontinent such as Nikki Haley and Bobby Jindal. Orthodox Jews such as Eric Cantor, the House Majority Leader, are articulate foes of Obama’s policies. Any bigot would be very lonesome in the Tea Party movement, and in fact racially motivated violence against black Tea Party members is almost totally a product of the Left and is completely ignored by the media.

Ironically, the real victims of Obama’s failures are the poor, particularly the inner-city blacks who find getting employment in a comatose economy almost impossible. Stirring the coals of riots in these areas drives out businesses that do not absolutely have to be in big cities. Places such as Detroit, once a thriving engine of American industrial genius, are descending into gloomy, hopeless Third World conditions. The real victims of crime and disorder fanned by people such as Maxine Waters are her own constituents, who suffer assaults, robberies, and worse by mobs that have no rules. 

Can the lurking menace of union brutes and vicious and angry armies of inner-city minorities, stirred up by loud, crude speakers egging them on, upend our political system? Can ordinary Americans be intimidated into voting again for Obama? If there is a civil war in America, a real and physical civil war, will Americans who believe in the greatness of our nation prevail? It is far from an academic question, and it is a question that we may have to answer by November 2012.
