He Ain’t Heavy, He’s My Brother?

I hate collectivism!

Any movement that seeks to enforce community standards on a group of people rapes the individual of his most precious gift–his self.

For eight years, the nimrods in the Bush administration tried to legislate an extreme version of evangelical Christianity. I am a Christian, an evangelical even, but I don’t want the government legislating the rigid values of certain sect of evangelical Christians. When I wasn’t criticizing the Bush administration for their imperialistic trot through Baghdad, I criticized them for their unholy alliance with bigots like James Dobson, Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell and hypocrites like Ted Haggard.

Today, the names have changed, but the game remains the same. The tax cheats in Obama’s gang seeks to force another form of collectivism on us, this one favored by Marx–socialism. Timmy Geithner now thinks Americans have a “deep moral imperative,” to fall in line with Obama’s economic policy.  Maybe then we can come together and all sing, “He Ain’t Heavy, He’s My Brother.”

Are you kidding me? Americans are really buying into this? Do they not see he’s pulling  page out of  Mussolini’s playbook?

Collectivism, whether it be in the form of a planned theocracy or in smiley faced Marxism, runs counter to the very core of this great nation. The Republican Party I grew up in cheerished the rights of the individual and I hope that someday they return to those roots. Until then, it looks like we’re stick with at least another ten years of a government trying to force collectivism down our throats.
