WHY DEMOCRATS CANNOT DEFEND AMERICA |

[The Council for National Policy is America's premier
group of conservative leaders. At its meeting this weekend, I have been asked
to address CNP members, explaining in five minutes why Liberal Democrats seem
incapable of even wanting to defend our country. This is what I will say.]
A good place to start understanding why Democrats cannot
defend America is the Amazon jungle.
There is a tribe in the Amazon called the Yanomamo. When a Yanomamo woman gives birth, she tearfully
proclaims her child to be ugly.
In a loud mortified lament that the entire tribe can hear, she asks why the
gods have cursed her with such a pathetically repulsive infant. She does this
in order to ward off the envious black magic of the Evil Eye, the Mal Ojo,
that would be directed at her by her fellow tribespeople if they thought she
was happy and her baby was beautiful.
So she is afraid to be happy, because of the fear of being
envied by her fellow villagers.
From now on, whenever you think of a Liberal Democrat, I
want you to think of that Yanomamo woman in the Amazon. For it is that primitive jungle fear that
makes a Liberal.
This is most easily seen in the children of wealthy parents.
Successful businessmen who have made it on their own normally have a respect
for the effort and the economic system that makes success possible. Their
children, with their unearned inheritance, are easier targets for
guilt-mongering by the envious.
So they assume a posture of liberal compassion as an envy-deflection device:
"Please don't envy me for my father's money -- look at all the liberal
causes and government social programs I advocate!" Teddy Kennedy is the
archetype of this phenomenon.
Envy-appeasement explains why Hollywood is so liberal. The vast amounts of
money entertainment stars make is so grossly disproportionate to the effort it
took them to make it that they feel it is unearned. So they apologize for it.
The Liberal strategy is to apologize for his success, his country's success,
his civilization's success, in order to appease the envious.
Liberalism, the mind-set that dominates today's Democrat Party, is thus not
a political ideology or set of beliefs. It is a psychological strategy to avoid
being envied. Liberalism is the politicalization of envy-appeasement.
Thus, all Liberal Democrat passions are frenzies of masochism.
What could be more idiotic and masochistic than to oppose missile defense? Democrats oppose it because they do not
want their country defended.
The Democrats' hysterical belief in the "global warming" hoax is
because they do not want their civilization to prosper.
The entire Political Correctness movement attacking
America's culture is nothing but
masochistic envy-appeasement advocated by those who do not want their
culture to survive.
The pro-abortionists' crazed determination to prevent any attempt to stop
mothers from murdering their children by the millions, or the equally crazed
mission of the environmentalists to prevent DDT from saving millions of
children from dying of malaria, means that they do not want their species
to exist.
As the Amazon tribeswoman who says her baby is ugly, so the white male
liberal says his gender, his race, his country, his civilization and even his
entire species is ugly.
This is why liberals always root for those who hate America.
Liberals are incapacitated from being able to defend America because of their
primitive fear of the Evil Eye of America's enemies. Liberals are incapable of
pride, deep pride, in being American. Instead they feel embarrassment.
You and I feel that pride. You and I think it is the coolest thing in the world
to be American. But Liberal Democrats are embarrassed rather than proud to be
American, they want to apologize for being American, to wallow in the goo of
moral relativism and multiculturalism, because they have a compulsion to
appease the envious.
So America's enemies from Islamofascist terrorists to
mullahs in Iran to the Chicoms in Beijing are not the real problem. They are like wolves who smell
weakness. The real problem is our
weakness - our lack of civilizational confidence caused by liberal envy
appeasement.
The fundamental primary job of conservatives, then, is to
laugh at and reject the envy of America-haters, to expose liberal appeasement
as a primitive jungle fear of envious black magic, and to promote and achieve
civilizational confidence - genuine pride in the moral worth of the unmatched
accomplishments of Western Civilization.
Do this, and America's enemies will scamper away like
whimpering mongrels rather than coming after us like ravenous wolves. Conservatives are capable of this, liberals
are not. That is why we can defend America
and they can not.
