Resumo de Donkey Cons: Sex Crime And Corruption In The Democratic Party

Flies
in the face of the popular notion that the Republicans are the party of
corruption. Incredibly well researched and footnoted - Cogent and
Forceful. No Quarter! While no book could encyclopedically catalog all of the corruption in
the Democrat party, consider this book a rough guide. More than a
litany of Democratic misdeeds, Donkey Cons
demonstrates the shocking disregard for the rule of law by generations
of Democrats. Vincent and McCain's insightful analysis of Democratic
corruption and the enabling role played by the media paints a
disturbing picture. At times ridiculing but never becoming a rant,
liberal readers will be gratified to see the authors are unafraid to
tackle corruption in the Republican party as well.
Of particular interest to me as a Metro Detroiter, was the chapter
devoted to the Democrat-enabled decline of our nation's cities - no
city was hit so hard by rioting and corruption. No intelligent
individual who lived through Mayor Coleman Young's administration could
question his basic incompetence and corruption.
His lowering of standards in police recruitment, openly racist
rhetoric, eviction of whites by threats, harassment and eminent domain
and corruption in awarding city contracts to cronies and companies with
"preferred racial demographics" have had a devastating effect on
Detroit, multiplying the effects of the '67 riots. All this is true,
and yet the authors were too easy on hizzoner, apparently the editors
did not allow them enough space to remind readers of his habit of
swearing during TV interviews or the degree to which he looted the
Mayoral mansion when he left office.
Donkey Cons
went to press just before Abramoff was convicted, however the book does
offer a fair and reasonable breakdown of the party affiliations of the
members of congress who were potentially tainted by receipt of Abramoff
money (more Democrats on this list than you might expect). Sadly, among
them is Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, who adamantly refuses to
give back the tainted "dough" despite the fact that others on both
sides of the aisle have already done so. If the Democrats take the
authors' advice and own up to their part in the scandal (as the
Republican leadership did) they may start to win elections again; but
then, they ignored old Zell Miller
until he finally quit the party, so why would they start listening now?
As an American, I hope that they do listen, because the lack of a
strong opposition party does nothing to further political debate in
this country; having well-reasoned opponents makes us better
Republicans.

Perhaps the most scathing indictment of corruption in the Democrat
party is not the "rap sheet" (Chapter 2), but rather the degree to
which Democrats have become increasingly dependent on the employment of
inflated statistics, divisive and misleading arguments in support of
their failed social programs. This is a theme that the authors touch on
briefly through their historical survey and one which could be a book
in and of itself.

As Ronald Reagan once said, "I didn't leave the Democrat party, the
Democrats left me". Many new converts to the Republican party were
driven to leave the Democrats because of their weak stance on national
defense and softness on terrorism. So it will come as a shock to some
that the pattern of selling out our national security is nothing new.
Countless scandals (Chinagate) and instances of giving aid and comfort
to the enemy abound in the last generation. Students of history will
not be surprised however; the Democrat party was co-founded by the
treasonous Aaron Burr. Civil-war era "Copperhead" Democrats and
Jim-Crow segregationists exemplify the unbroken thread of treason and
malfeasance has been an integral part of the Democrat platform on
through to the present.
And the hits just keep coming...
Just in case you thought that that the authors had gotten all of the
liberals, here are some recent stories that were either not
included in the book or which have juicy updates.
Cynthia McKinney D-Georgia who asked for clemency for convicted killer Mumia Abu-Jamal (5 eyewitnesses saw him pull the trigger), just slugged a Capitol Hill police officer and then blamed the incident on the officer's racism! Way to blame the victim Cynthia!
Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick's lavish living, funded through his city-issued credit card became a campaign issue during his reelection and may have been reelected by phony votes.
John Conyers D-Detroit
uses his highly-paid congressional staffers to tutor his failing son at
the taxpayer's expense (whom he sends to an exclusive private school to
escape the failing Detroit school district) - while opposing vouchers that
might give the poor the same opportuniteis as rich congressmen like
him! How about "sharing the wealth" congressman Conyers?
