Donkey Ethics for the Weak-Minded and Morally-Challenged
Maybe Democrats are really just bad people. I was struck today by the last couple of paragraphs in today's story on the Dem thugs tire-slashing case.
Both Smith, an employee at Norfolk State University in Virginia, and Ward, a Maryland lawyer, admitted on the witness stand that they had been involved in their own campaign shenanigans during the early hours of Nov. 2, 2004. They testified that they had gone out with a third campaigner to pull the opposition's yard signs.
"We replaced Bush signs with Kerry signs," Smith said, " . . . probably about six total."
Without even getting into the tire-slashing issue, I must conclude that this gang of Democrats is true scum. Even the witnesses for the prosecution admit that they broke the law and did their part for "Operation Elephant Takeover." I guess this must be what happens when weak-minded and morally-challenged individuals spend years or lifetimes demonizing their opponents.
Character is doing the right thing when nobody's looking. There are too many people who think that the only thing that's right is to get by, and the only thing that's wrong is to get caught. ~J.C. Watts
I'm no paragon of virtue and I've demonized a few opponents myself, but I would never sink so low as to steal a yard sign or slash a Democrat's tire. It is, indeed, a question of character. What kind of a person are you? And how zealously immoral are you prepared to be? Bush-haters seem to have given themselves permission to engage in both misdemeanors and felonies for their cause.
I know a few Republicans like this, but I'm beginning to believe that the self-righteous twits in the Democratic Party have become the honest-to-goodness bad guys. From the MoveOn.Org harassers outside my polling station to the Democratic Senators on the Judiciary Committee, they have moved beyond civil political disagreement into a more brownshirted direction. Good thing they'll never have the power to put us Bush-supporters in concentration camps. The thugs of today's Democratic party might just try to get away with it.
