Capitalism is the economic engine behind the greatness of the United States. Capitalism and liberty are reciprocal values culminating in American exceptionalism that allowed the United States to save the international community from two world wars, force the collapse of communism without firing a shot, and willingly share our wealth with those less fortunate.

 American exceptionalism is based on the ideas of men. American exceptionalism flows from a nation based on the rule of law rather than a nation arbitrarily ruled by despots; a nation based on the notion of individual liberty and equal justice before the law; with government based on enumerated powers and limitations to protect this individual liberty and equal justice.

 In our 234 year history, since the Declaration of Independence, we have proven to be the greatest country in the world; the world’s greatest republic based on democratic principles; the world’s greatest economic engine, the greatest developer of of ideas, medicines and products; the most compelling cultural influence in the world; and the most humanitarian culture in the world.

 And there are those who wish to destroy America: Progressives/Socialists who are members of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) and the Socialist International (SI). Progressives/Socialists  want to take ownership away from shareholders and illegally give it to those that have not earned or purchased  ownership.

 The DSA states that “Democratic socialists do not want to create an all-powerful government bureaucracy.” Yet, in every instance where socialism developed we have seen massive government bureaucracy. Currently, the radical left fringe of the Democratic Party is attempting to takeover 17%  of the American economy by nationalizing health care. The only way the Progressives/Socialists can be successful is to destroy capitalism and employ tyrranical rule, utlitimately destroying the American exceptionalism they fear and loathe.

 The DSA touts the nations of Western Europe and Scandinavia as examples of “tremendous prosperity  and economic equality. Yet there are no current models of fully instituted democratic socialism. Why? It doesn’t work. It reduces people to mere servants of the State. It destroys exceptionalism.

 Then why are members of the United States Congress members of the DSA? The goal of the DSA is to destroy capitalism and liberty yet they all took an oath of office to protect and defend America from all enemies, foreign and domestic.

 I submit that one cannot be a member of the DSA or SI and be a member of Congress. Each and every member of the DSA who is a member of Congress swore a false oath. By definition, each DSA/SI member of Congress is a domestic enemy of the United States.

 Who are these enemies of the United States in Congress? There are 76 members of Congress who are known members of the DSA. From Arizona, it is Representative Raul M. Grijalva, D-CD7.

 The House Judiciary Committee has 23 Democrats and 11 are members of the DSA: John Conyers D-MI, Tammy Baldwin D-WI,  Jerrold Nadler D-NY, Luis Gutierrez D-IL, Melvin Watt D-NC, Maxine Waters D-CA, Hank Johnson D-GA, Steve Cohen D-TN, Barbara Lee D-CA, Robert Wexler D-FL,  and Linda Sanchez D-CA.

These Progressive/Socialists belong to the Democratic Socialists of America, an organization that is committed to destroying capitalism and replacing it with “social ownership” or  collectivism, controlled by the State. These people cannot promote and defend the United States of America as elected representatives while holding a political view that calls for the destruction of capitalism and liberty.

 Socialism was tried in the Soviet Union and failed. It was tried in Communist China and failed. Today, China employs capitalism to expand its economy. Despite the repreated failures of socialism,  American Progressives/Socialists still attempt to destroy the United States in their effort to promote socialism.

 Today, Progressives/Socialists employ class warfare to divide the America people: hate crime laws protect everyone but straight white people; bankers are attacked by the President of the United States, yet the finacial crisis was precipitated by a Democrat controlled Congress that used Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac for a failing sub-prime social program; and the President and Congress have engaged in unconstitutional actions absent  checks and balances that have been in place 224 years.

 The Tea Party phenomenon of 2009 was the awakening of the American people to the Socialist takeover of America’s health care. The so-called Global Warming initiative has been proven a scam, built on false radical left science with a goal of control of the American people and American economy.

 President Obama has proven himself to be not a President but a Czar, uncomfortable in governing but very adept at royal fiat, with a very real contempt for economic realities. We have seen a House of Representatives run amok with the power of a vast majority ramming through two thousand page bills without the benefit of even reading the bill. We have seen a corrupt Senate employing the socialist “ends justifies the means” unethical philosophy to enforce the Nebraska Cornhusker Kickback, the Louisiana Purchase and the Florida Medicare Advantage deal.

 This week, Progressives/Socialists are still attempting to salvage their massive health care take over. President Obama, himself a Socialist with ties to the New Party in Chicago, invited Republicans to the negotiating table not to negotiate a new health care bill but to have Republicans buy into a compromise of the two Democratic health bills. This is not bipartisanship. It is  political theater designed to entrap Republicans into supporting a bill the American people overwhelmingly do not want.

 Progressives/Socialists cannot be trusted. Their “ends justifies the means” doctrine defines them as void of ethical values. Socialists are starving for political control and massive collectivist government. Capitalism is to be abhored and collectivism embraced. Liberty is to be sacrificed and people are to be servants of the State.

 To Progressives/Socialists government is the solution yet history shows otherwise. Progressives/Socialists cannot remain in government as the peoples’ representative when their purpose is not to represent the people but to destroy America. Congress is a Trojan Horse within which the Progressive/Socialist enemies of America hide.
