You know we have serious problems in our nation, when members of congress will praise murdering communist revolutionaries, and fail to ever mention the heroics and virtues of our own revolutionaries, The Founding Fathers. I see this becoming an awful trend in America; they may get a mention, but rarely individually by name. This is highlighted by the latest praise of Che Guevara, and Fidel Castro by California Congresswomen Diane Watson.
In the video slide show posted to the left is the Dishonorable Gentlewomen from California speaking at her latest town hall meeting. The slide show was posted by PatriotsNetwork.com. I have no affiliation with this sight other than I found this video, which I believe helps my case.
I was in utter disbelief, listening to this speech. “Say what you want about Fidel…he was one of the brightest leaders I have ever met,” says Watson (I do not care if, like Senator Feinstein, she worked hard to become a congresswomen, but I can not give her the respect of that title anymore). She continues with “…well Che Guevara, who kicked out the wealthy,” which allowed Fidel to bring Cuba to prosperity. Well Diane, let’s evaluate how you would portray someone who said, “Adolf Hitler was one of the brightest leaders I have studied, and once Adolf Eichmann started to get rid of the Jews, well Hitler was to lead Germany to prosperity.” I bet you would think that person was an absolute moron, a racist, a fascist. Hence, why I think you and all of your socialist cohorts are absolute idiots, fools, or … I’ll let the readers insert their own words, because the real words I want to use are not family oriented.
Those on the left demonize people like Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck for calling the President and his advisers communists. Are they wrong? I don’t see how they logically can be. Where is the uproar when elected representatives praise Cuba’s murdering, communist revolutionaries? Ms. Watson fails to mention that Che Guevara ordered the execution of “several thousand people,” the “wealthy” Ms. Watson is talking about (see TherealCuba.com link to the left). That was his way of “kicking them out.” How many political dissenters did Castro imprison, how many did he order to die? No uproar, no condemnation of her words. To the contrary, he Democrats and other allies of the left will rally around her, and financially support her, and give the label of racist to people like myself who dare question her praise. Fidel and Che are heroes to the same types of people that Hitler and Eichmann are heroes: Murderers, Despots, Dictators, socialists communists, fascists. Ms. Watson, your remarks don’t lead me to believe you are a murderer, but as for the latter five take your pick. Glen Beck says there are “communists in the White House,” well I know of at least one in Congress, Diane Watson.
What happened to praising our own revolutionaries, you know, the ones a lot of liberal democrats forget about, the Founding Fathers. Well I know I can never see eye to eye with someone who praises Che and Fidel, while I praise George and Thomas (Washington and Jefferson). We will not Unite together as a nation as long as those on the left keep trying to “Change” our American heroes from George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, Hamilton, Hancock, Sam Adams, Richard Henry Lee, James Madison (the list can go on and on) to Che Guevara, Fidel Castro, Raul Castro, Hugo Chavez, Karl Marx, Lenin, Stalin and so on.
It seems as if those on the left study and praise the communist revolutionaries so as to learn how to grab power. Those of us on the right have also studied the same people; however we study them to understand how tyrants come to rule. Also, unlike the left who seem to consider our Founding Fathers nothing but “slave owning, dead white men,” we view them has virtuous and heroic. We learn from them how to stop despotic usurpation of our liberties. I have no doubt that being armed with the knowledge of our Founders’ virtues to stop tyranny, and knowing how tyrants like Lenin, Fidel Castro and Hugo Chavez usurped liberty from their people, that “we the people” will again take our government back. And when it comes to choosing my heroes, I and most Americans choose the Founders over Che and Fidel.
