The radical leftist crowd has virulent hate for Trump and all things Trumpian and it seems nothing is too low, untrue, or vile if they can score points against him. Trump started the fanatics caterwauling by suggesting that four congresswomen of color could go back to where they came from if they don’t like America. I’ve said that for decades and it’s a good statement! If people don’t like where they live, of course, they should choose to go back to where they came from.

However, Trump said more than that and few media reports reflect his complete statement. He suggested that critics of American could go back to their original nations, fix their problems, then come back, and show us how to fix ours. Sounds like a great idea to me. And frankly, while Trump can’t say this, I will: I will not be disappointed if one or all of the four ladies stay there. After all, they are whiners and radical leftists who make blonde jokes obsolete.

I would be delighted if a large group of Democrats and a few carefully chosen Republicans accompany the four ladies of color. By the way, I don’t suppose it is permissible for one to refer to the four ladies of color as four, colored ladies. I would like for the racists (black and white) to explain that to me. But I won’t hold my breath since blue is not my favorite color.

The President suggested that the then alive Congressman Elijah Cummings is a racist and the left went bonkers; but can’t Democrats, even black Democrats, be racists? No one asked, “Is his statement true?” Everyone assumed it was not: it could not be true since Blacks are a protected class. They even clearly state that a Black cannot be racist!

Sane people have just fallen to the floor, holding their sides in raucous laughter.

Trump called Cummings “a brutal bully” and his majority-black district “disgusting.” He went on to call Cummings’s district the “worst in the USA,” a “rat and rodent infested mess,” and a “dangerous and filthy place.” Trump also accused the late congressman of corruption. If one has seen Cummings during hearings, he was clearly a bully. While it’s been a while since I’ve been in Baltimore (I always try to skirt the area), my knowledge of the city for many years is that it is one of the worst in America.

In July of 2019, one third of polled Democrats say it is racism if white politicians criticize politicians of color for their political views. Say what? Wow, such nonsense gives any minority a free pass not to answer for a senseless, stupid, and silly position.

Furthermore, leftist radicals need to understand that making a statement about anything does not make it true, not even if all leftists in America agree with it. I know that is a sobering, shocking, and surprising truth to the left, but it is true.

The haters on the left have even taken over the language to bring about the rule of the Proletariat. It seems truth is totally irrelevant to the screamers: male and female; black and white; Democrat and Republican.

Confucius prudently cautioned about 500 B.C. that “when words lose their meaning, people will lose their liberty.” That is one time Confucius was right.

Mark Twain astutely observed that “the difference between the right word and the almost right word is the difference between lightning and the lightning bug.” Add to that the wholesale theft of various definitions. We have seen what leftists do to words to further their own vacuous positions.

Furthermore, the concerted attack on precision in speaking and writing was clearly seen by C. S. Lewis when he coined verbacide–the killing of a word by a calculated misuse of it. Agenda-driven people in politics and the media are guilty of verbacide.

Pedophiles speak about the “love” they have for children when it is not love but vile affections for innocent children. Affirmative action should mean taking action to right a wrong but today it means to give special consideration to one because of his or her gender or race or age or, well you know.

A lesbian radio caller said, “Rush, once we got your side to using our term [gay], that’s when I knew we had won.” Note that she called it “our” term. They took control of the word and convinced the anemic media to follow along.

The perverts also misappropriated the rainbow to be their banner. It is a promise from God to not use water to destroy the world again. Their use is dishonest but they have never been concerned with honesty and only faintly disguise their hatred of normal people.

Words that are not considered appropriate include: American, homosexual, illegal alien, Caucasian, mothering, fathering, foreigners, elders, senior citizen, overweight, speech impediment, dumb, sexual preference, manpower, freshmen, mailman, chairman, convicted felon, etc.

We have seen Orwell’s 1984 become reality. Their slogans were WAR IS PEACE, FREEDOM IS SLAVERY, IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH. The naïve will say, “But those words don’t mean that.” No, but when used enough, they will. At one time one could say, “I had a gay time yesterday.” Now, normal people don’t talk that way because the LGBTQ crowd has taken gay hostage.

The bullies will try to badger, berate, bribe, and bamboozle us, but we must stand strong. As a child we usually handled the bullies and if one of us could not do so, then two or three took care of them. The anti-bullying campaign is being used as a cover for letting the liberals, leftists, Socialists, and the LGBTQ crowd have their way.

No, not even if pigs learn to fly in formation over the White House, each with an LGBTQ flag.

Seneca declared, “The art of conversation is dead.” If not dead, it is gasping in the streets.

That attack on truth has been considered fiction but distorting history is a fact that is accelerating daily.

Ashamed of the past and fearful of the future, desperate, duplicitous, and disgusting politicians have destroyed the historical record to make them look less unscrupulous and to confuse, corrupt, and control each generation. A rewrite of history is in the making as I write.

It has happened and has been accelerating since the beginning of time.

Ancient kings glorified their successes in battle, often neglecting major disasters, all to preserve their position in history. They profusely bragged about their elaborate building programs but refused to reveal their waring tendencies that destroyed their cities. Sennacherib was the son of Sargon and ruler of the Assyrian Empire in Eighth Century B.C. Assyrian inscriptions reveal that Sennacherib made astoundingly vainglorious boasts about his accomplishments of shutting up Hezekiah in his Jerusalem capital “as a bird in a cage.” Everyone now realizes that Sennacherib took 46 Jewish cities but failed to conquer Jerusalem (after the angel of the Lord killed 185,000 of his troops in one night) and Sennacherib left in defeat for his Nineveh palace only to be eventually killed by his son.

If anyone offended a tyrannical king, that individual was not only killed but often any mention of him was removed from all public records.

I revealed in my book, The God Haters, an example of politicians manipulating history when Caesar tried to obliterate the memory of Pilate because he had offended Caesar. Pilate therefore did not exist since Caesar said so and officials and historians willingly obeyed by removing Pilate’s name from all records.

For many years, Bible critics declared that the Bible is unreliable because Pilate could not be found in any historical record. Then archeologists, digging in the rubble of Caesarea by the Sea, found a five-inch-thick stone that referred to Pilate and had been used in the famous theater ruins where I have preached a few times. The stone had been used because it was exactly the size needed and was used with the forbidden information about Pilate underneath! It is on display in Caesarea today.

Mark Antony had a similar experience with his memory being formally expunged from Rome’s official records after his affair with Cleopatra. “His name was obliterated from the…state registers of official events. His statues were removed. It was to be as if he had never existed. The Senate …voted that no member of the Antonius clan should be named Marcus….His birthday was made …an unlucky day, on which public business could not be conducted.”

Roman Emperor Caracalla murdered his brother and co-emperor Geta and had statues of Geta removed and his image chiseled off coins. Geta’s image was removed from all paintings, his statues were destroyed, his name was struck from all records, and it became a capital offence to speak or write Geta’s name. An estimated 20,000 people were massacred as a result.

Soviet despot Joseph Stalin sent Leon Trotsky into exile and airbrushed him out of the Great Soviet Encyclopedia, then to finish the matter, had him assassinated in Mexico. For decades, when a Soviet official fell out of favor with the sitting tyrant, the offender was painted out of the official photos of the most recent May Day Parade in Moscow.

Politicians never change, and modern politicians continue in the same way: they exaggerate their successes, excuse their shortcomings, and excise their sins. Similarly today, politicians and their zealot followers seek to rewrite history and remove any photos or statues that might not meet their modern views of morality.

Some U.S. textbooks don’t deal with major American founders, and liberal censors insist that Huckleberry Finn be removed from libraries because it is politically incorrect.

Notre Dame is a Catholic university and the president cowardly responded to student complaints about paintings of Christopher Columbus so they are being concealed. Columbus was a dedicated Catholic, now repudiated by a Catholic university.

Usually, at the first demand of self-appointed protestors, whimpering university presidents cower under their desk as they immediately capitulate to the foaming-at-the-mouth fanatics.

Officials at University of Pennsylvania have quickly surrendered without a fight to the fanatics by removing a portrait of William Shakespeare and replacing it with a black lesbian writer. New York Governor Cuomo removed the statues of Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson from a public place. Calhoun College has been changed to Grace Hopper College since Calhoun was pro slavery, you know. Also, stained glass windows depicting slavery were removed from college buildings. New Orleans removed its famous 20-foot statue of Robert E. Lee, the last of four to be removed.

Baltimore removed their offensive statues overnight including one of Supreme Court Justice Roger B. Taney author of the majority opinion in the Dred Scott case that decided former slaves could not become U.S. citizens. So, now in rewriting history they are going after dead judges for their judicial decisions.

Mob protesters in Durham removed a statue of women of the Confederacy and one to fallen soldiers of the South. We can’t even honor women’s part in the war or the average soldier who died for his country. Some, historical statue haters, desperate for support, charge that those Confederate soldiers fought and died to preserve slavery. What balderdash! No southern boy was so stupid to leave home with crops and animals in the field to fight and die for the right of less than 5% of southerners to own slaves.

It is going to get confusing (and expensive) when the fanatics start removing and changing all streets, buildings, etc. with the names of slave-holders George Washington or Thomas Jefferson and almost all the signers of the Declaration of Independence.

Even Mount Rushmore is in the sights of the history haters since two of the four faces were racists—Washington and Jefferson, and Theodore Roosevelt, an imperialist. Only Lincoln is safe and if his statements on Blacks were well known, he would be in danger. Roosevelt is considered an imperialist and is often ridiculed rather than respected for his part in the Spanish American War. Roosevelt’s statue in front of the museum on Central Park West is a tribute to his status as the nation’s greatest environmentalist. His statue is also in front of the Museum of Natural History. Will the zealots determine to destroy Rushmore?

Statues, paintings, etc., of very difficult and embarrassing times in our nation’s past are still a part of our past and their presence could be a reminder that we don’t want to make the same mistakes again. And that goes for mistakes made in the North as well as the South. Would these dedicated progressives demand the destruction of the Roman Colosseum where thousands were brutally slaughtered? How about the Pyramids since they were built by slaves?

Such nonsense is an attack upon the past which won’t change the reality and will only confuse the present. We should learn from history not defile, distort, or destroy it.
