Are we willfully blind, or just too generous of spirit?

Are conservatives willfully blind to the realities of what leftists are all about? Bob Belvedere thinks so. Bob responds to a National Review essay by Michael Knox Beran entitled Decline and Fall: The Tragedy of Barack Obama. Because conservatives have a generous nature (conservative), Bob believes we fail to understand the true nature of leftists like Barack Obama.

Has Obama tried to heal our economy? No, according to Belvedere, "Every single thing Western Civilization stands for is antithetical to what the Leftist seeks to accomplish, therefore, the whole structure must be reduced to rubble if a real and lasting Utopia is to be built [these are the people who, when confronted with the fact that Communism has never worked wherever it has been tried, respond with: 'Communism has never be really tried']" Belvedere asserts that Obama has devised new schemes to hide his zealotry behind a face of compassion.

Was Obama ever a man who was committed to building consensus? Only among leftists! "Sure, Obama [and his handlers] could bring the various factions of the Left together, but his [and his handlers] utter contempt and total hatred for anyone not a Revolutionary meant that those to his Right would never be considered as worthy of dealing with as equals or even as Fellow Travelers."

"If Obama believes he has failed, he sees himself as having failed only in his grand hoodwinking of the American People. No Leftist really wants to unite the people of a country he is trying to conquer — unification [by force, at the point of a gun] comes after the revolution. All of the Intellectuals the Leftist believes in and holds dear — be it Marx or Mao or Lenin or Stalin or Harrington or Alinsky or de Sade, etc. [or any combination, thereof] — all advocate the Balkanization of the peoples to be conquered. In order for the existing Society to be destroyed, Chaos must be employed, law and disorder must be fostered."

Belvedere, a student of leftist history, states, "Obama is a Leftist — and to be a real, ‘legitimate’ Leftist requires that one reject all that is truly noble and decent and moral. It means that one must commit oneself to destroying the existing order utterly because that is the only way, the Leftist believes, that a real and true Utopia can rise-up — such a Heaven On Earth can only emerge out of the ruins of what is."

This analysis by Bob Belvedere is certainly different than any analysis of Barack Obama that I have seen. Only time will tell if his analysis is spot on or wildly off the mark. If he is right, then conservatives better open their eyes fast, and see the light!

I wish I was wrong.

Thanks, Bob.
