Last week, the Administration posted this photo – of Vice President Pence, looking across the DMZ at the Norks.
You know the old saying, “Never, Ever Read the Commennts?” It’s even more true on Twitter. “Progressives” romped and cavorted with the image. One -well, probably a lot more than one – snaked “I’m sure this made all the infantry on both sides of the DMZ crap their pants”.
G’huck g’huck.
“Progrssives” never get tyranny. They never do.
The photo is not aimed at the soldiers on the DMZ.
It’s aimed at the people in the “Democratic Peoples’ Republic of Korea” (DPRK) that will, inevitably, see it one day.
And think “Someone over the wall is taking our plight seriouslyl”.
Remember – this is the same crowd that giggled like eighth-graders telling “Fart” jokes when Reagan gave his Brandenburg Gate speech, which kept the Jimmy Kimmels and Conan O’Briens of the day chuckling for a news cycle or two. “Mr. Gorbachev declined to come out with a pickaxe”, indeed.
But the speech wasn’t aimed at Michael Gorbachev. It was aimed at his subjects – who took it to heart. And in four years, the Berlin Wal did, indeed, fall – an effectual relationship the left only acknowledged backhandedly, the way they usually do, by trying to take credit for it themselves.
“Progrssives” have always been on the wrong side of history and always cheered for the wrong side.
As Dennis Prager has mentioned, there is a old Jewish saying “Those who are kind to the cruel will be cruel to the kind” and that describes modern leftists/progressives perfectly
PoD, isn’t that a Nick Lowe song?
JPA, I’m going to have to plead ignorance on that.
jpa and PoD, here you go
As long as I’ve been around–since 1969–I cannot remember a time when Democrats understood Communism as a threat to humanity. So at least there is consistency there.
