Republican Party Treachery: Desperate for Romney

Republican Party Treachery: Desperate for Romney

By Joseph Andrew Settanni


Why is the GOP so desperate for attaining, for securing, the nomination of Mitt Romney? Why, in addition, are the vast majority of conservative talk show hosts/commentators willing to finally say that, if he gets the nomination, they will certainly vote for him? What is really going on?

Because most of the hard-core conservative base of the Republican Party and the majority of those who solidly support the Tea Party Movement will not vote for Mitt Romney, the GOP, therefore, wants him as the nominee since he will be, thus, defeated by Obama.

One might still seriously ask why this is, however, being so deliberately intended, when the outcome is, presumably, quite negative? Why is there this great lust to decisively and consciously grasp defeat from the jaws of victory?

The Republican Party, meaning its leadership hierarchy, wants the great privilege, in its mind, of willingly helping Obama to make the wanted transition to the foundation of America into becoming a European-style, social-democratic State with its, thus, full-scale, social-market/collectivist economy.

The effort is, of course, to destroy free-market economics and to, also, substantially proletarianize the bulk of the American people into becoming mere subjects of the State, not any longer free citizens of a free, constitutional, representative republican government.

The vile lust for power necessarily, over the course of time, breeds a related decadence and degeneracy, along with the notion, for the GOP, that they can “do it better,” meaning this authoritarian transition, than Obama and the Democrats could. How so? The superior managerial and organizational-oriented skills and talents, tested procedures and methods, of the Republicans, they egotistically feel, then appropriately qualifies them for autocratic work, as is so superbly, in truth, proven by American history.

Party Politics and Some American History Reviewed

It was, after all, Republican Party Congressional legislators, Presidents, and Supreme Court Justices appointed by Republican Presidents who had helped to vigorously consolidate both the achievements of the New Deal and the Great Society; Eisenhower, e. g., had appointed Justices Earl Warren and William Brennan who helped steer the Court ideologically to the far Left; Nixon had, moreover, meaningfully expanded upon the liberal excesses of the Great Society significantly, especially when aided by such prominent Republican US Senators as Robert Dole and Jacob Javits. The advance of domestic statism (aka tyranny) has been, of course, happening for many scores of years; and, sometimes, even in the name of conservatism.

As ought to be well known by now, moreover, both George Bush and his son were moderate-to-liberal Republicans, certainly both dedicated neoconservatives, who had then so favored strongly the observed continuing growth of Big Government. With the exception of Ronald Reagan, all the other Republican Presidents since Eisenhower, back in the 1950s, have basically helped to further expand the Federal government and, therefore, the greater range, depth, degree, etc. of such expansive power.

And, there is the old but true saying that politics often makes for strange bedfellows dedicated, in this case, to servicing the lustful needs of the Hobbesian Leviathan, the omnipotent and omnicompetent State; the secularist, God-defiant entity ever ready, willing, and able to destroy civil social liberty for better enforcing an atheist-democratic equality, at any price, for collectivist ideological ends in the name of Utopia.

Each leap for added amounts and successive degrees of supremacy, aided by increasing hundreds of billions of dollars of Federal spending and the resultant extremely crescive national debt, has both justified and further rationalized, in turn, the ever rapacious gaining of yet more and more demanded omnipotence.

So, it is just highly logical that the GOP leadership, concerning all the current candidates running for the Republican nomination, hate Ron Paul most intensely; he alone is the greatest threat to the hegemony of the establishmentarian attitude that strongly upholds the welfare-warfare State, which is the opposite of constitutional government as, by definition, a limited political order requisite for only governance, not the building of a Utopia.

Thus, how surely suitable and logical, appropriate and proper, it assuredly is for the hierarchy of the GOP, the basic leadership of the party, to then want to fully and enthusiastically assist Obama in this continuing and expansive drive for the further and further social, cultural, and economic collectivization of this country. For power loves power, not any freedom or liberty for the people, only their better enslavement, meaning for the horrid sake of more successfully attaining and maintaining, increasingly, the much wanted levels and degrees of power on earth; such reality is stranger than fiction.

In explicit terms of government as to the power establishment itself and, consequently, the necessary establishmentarian mindset it then creates, there is a proper meaning to the term known as the loyal opposition; it is, in fact, always tremendously loyal, no doubt, to power and its love and cultivation for the preservation of the political establishment and its functional and operational reality then logically favoring power.

The Regulatory/Bureaucratic State mandates the Command Economy that, in turn, secures the reality of collectivism pertaining to the appropriate nature of fulfilling the requirements of the needs of the social-democratic State, which so further suitably confirms and, thus, enforces the modern, social-market economy. Crony capitalism, State/corporate capitalism, or what has also been called corporate-welfare capitalism is not the enemy of the social-market economy; in sharp contrast, free-market economics, meaning all variations of genuine, market-oriented entrepreneurship, is the true enemy of collectivism.

Matters do then become much clearer and understandable, however, when the Republicans are seen correctly as being rightwing Socialists and the Democrats are known as the leftwing Socialists; all those who are truly enthralled by the ideological dictates of power are always quite intensely drawn, logically speaking, toward collectivism of one sort or another. It is inevitable. Big Government means, thus, the Bureaucratic State and cognate Regulatory State; who says bureaucracy, says (atheist) socialism. Or, as Bill Buckley was fond of quoting Trotsky, who says A must say B. Q. E. D.

Only upon sagacious and profound analysis is it realized clearly, for instance, that the commentators who declaim themselves as conservatives are really statists, as with their violently rabid and extensive denunciations of Ron Paul because he totally rejects Big Government and State Capitalism; he alone, among all the current GOP presidential candidates, adamantly opposes the welfare-warfare State that necessarily supports the ongoing military imperium.

He knows that free governments are, historically, the political exception to the rule. The struggle, therefore, is not Capitalists versus Communists or Republicans against Democrats, or Rich versus Poor, or, perhaps, Progressives opposed to Reactionaries.

Domestic interventionism encourages foreign interventionism; they do, thus, logically reciprocate and, moreover, possess a politically and economically symbiotic relationship. Support for the maintenance of the American imperium necessarily means, therefore, adamant affirmation of the welfarism inherent to the integrally fundamental nature of the welfare-warfare State that exists.

Thus, the interventionist mentality is, by definition, establishmentarian, authoritarian, and necessarily despotic to its very core; it is the constant friend of tyranny and progressivism/liberalism, of liberty-destroying statism and atheism.

And, it ought to be made known that this particular reasoning is truly supported by the thinking of the traditionalist right, the Old Right, not just by libertarians and other people. Conservatism, as an ideology affirming ideological modernity in this country, actually upholds the demonic right of the welfare-warfare State to exist and prosper, which is why the traditionalist right is, therefore, always greatly opposed to conservatism and, as a direct result, detests it vehemently. What is meant, however, in the context of this brief article, about the treacherous GOP leadership and its (Trojan horse) Romney?

The blatant Machiavellian strategy adopted by the Republican hierarchy is rather plain to see. They will trick the voters into wanting to eagerly elect a solidly Republican US Congress to then supposedly counterbalance a second Obama Administration; this would be, therefore, the response of the hard-core conservatives and Tea Party voters who definitely could not vote for Romney, which successfully ensures his defeat.

Rather than allow a conservative to run as the party’s nominee, they prefer Obama’s victory instead, and, of course, the worship of the secularist, materialist, hedonist, and nihilist welfare-warfare State.

It is a most vile and evilly contemptible form of enormous political treachery, on the disgusting part of the Republican party hierarchy, that would have, surely, gained the warm admiration of that Florentine Renaissance politician whose very name became a worthy synonym for the Devil, meaning Old Nick.

Ironically, of course, a Romney victory would be meaningless in that he also essentially, meaning to all intents and purposes, fully supports America’s supposedly needed transition into a collectivist State. He favors, strongly, the entire Iron Triangle: Big Government, Big Business, and Big Labor as part of the establishment in this country, as to what upholds the dominance of the ruling/political class.

It needs to be recognized, therefore, that there is a much older and more powerful ideology than such things as, e. g., Communism, Fascism, Nazism, etc. Those in love with power wish ever to restore normality to the world, meaning the historical norm of autocratic or authoritarian regimes lording it over the populace; a tiny minority, thus, subjugating and suppressing the vast majority of subjects; the practical functioning of despotism by whatever euphemism endorsing the power establishment, the ruling class, the political class. They are, in fact, the true reactionaries, not, e. g., the men of the traditionalist right.

Establishmentarianism is, moreover, what overtly energizes and guides the Machiavellian thinking of the basic leadership elements of the major political parties that have never been displaced, in fact, by any other third parties since after the War Between the States (aka Civil War) in the 19th century. What had, rather momentously, happened back then to forever significantly shape the fundamental direction and formation, the substantive path and important composition, of this nation’s political history?

The infamous Settlement of 1877 helped to consolidate forever the fundamental political agreement between the two predominant power blocks in America that a divisive war of such a nature would never occur again; this is because never again would any third political party come to successfully rise up and replace either of the two major political parties in this country. (And, one ought to properly and always remember that neither the existence nor operation of any political parties is anywhere mentioned or covered in the entire US Constitution; “political factions” as they then were known and condemned vigorously as such, in the 18th century, had been deliberately and, thus, quite purposely excluded from the Fundamental Law of the Land, and for good reason!)

Each party agreed in 1877, furthermore, that it would come to coopt platforms that would arise in the smaller parties, thus, so effectively deflating forever any real chance of a minor party becoming ever that strong enough to then replace/rival either the Democrat or Republican Party.

Equally, by the corrupt deal made, the Republicans withdrew the military occupations from the then number of still controlled Southern States and, in turn, the Democrats, in the entire South, were, thus, given a basically free hand to deal with their former slaves. (One should never forget that, historically, the Klu Klux Klan had once been practically fairly synonymous with the Southern Democratic Party.) And, it was politically fixed that a Republican, thus, became the “elected” President for 1876. Q. E. D.

One manifestly sees, therefore, that establishmentarianism rules and reigns, not freedom or liberty, not constitutional government, as is so openly and fiercely demanded by Ron Paul. Anyone who reads The Prince knows, soon enough, the true nature of modern politics as to what it is really all about. Only the naïve and the incurably idealistic think otherwise.

Of course, if one were to go and tell the people at large of these quite harsh truths, one would be readily denounced, not unexpectedly, as being a moron, a crank, a rightwing crackpot, a rightwing nut case, an oddball, a radical eccentric, etc. It is, as ever, the philosophical problem or analogy of Plato’s Cave.

The deluded inhabitants of the Cave do assume, axiomatically, that the mere passing or flickering shadows on the walls are truly real things; they know not anything outside of the Cave as to the real world actually concealed by the Cave. Thus, popular opinion governs the (false) perception of what is conventionally thought to be the (supposed) truth, which is not, in fact, the empirical case.

Escaping from that cavern, which necessarily enforces ignorance and superstition upon its inhabitants, means an intellectual liberation of the human mind. And, this needs to be introduced against the follies of contemporary domestic politics. How so?

It needs to be seen that the predominant majority of the significant conservative (read: reactionary) advocates, including Limbaugh, Levin, Hannity, Savage, Steyn, Sowell, Bennett, Coulter, Will, Medved, etc. have, energetically and willingly, poured out their hyperbolic detestation and vomited revilement upon Paul, well beyond anything else they have had to ever say about all the others combined. (Of course, he’s not the best thing since sliced bread; he is not flawless nor, e. g., God’s gift to mankind, etc.)

They have (no mere coincidence) all both correctly identified and targeted the true enemy of all statism in America; he has been, in truth, specially targeted to help significantly the GOP establishment with their nefarious plans set so firmly against this country and the interests of its people, of its republican Constitution. Paul has been, thus, thoroughly demonized and supposedly made absolutely unacceptable as a nominee forever; he has been, therefore, condemned and anathematized many times over.

Conclusion

It takes the substantial and substantive acquiring of a profound knowledge and depth comprehension of politics, history, culture, society, economics, etc., therefore, to be able to cognitively fight against the impressive and often oppressive tide of opinion in proper and valiant search of the truth, of veracity.

When this is rightly done, one can, among other things, then perceive correctly that the core GOP leadership, the vast bulk of conservative talk show hosts/commentators, the mass media, the neoconservatives, Wall Street, etc. do really want Romney to get the Republican nomination, so that he will, therefore, fail to get elected President.

The intellectual and firm realization of this (in effect suppressed) truth, thus, produces a major, genuine cognitive enlightenment. But, against all odds, if this good man, the good doctor, should win in Iowa on January 3rd, it would be equivalent to the historic shot heard round the world; it would, certainly, be as if the majority of the conservatives, libertarians, disaffected centrists/moderates, and their heterogeneous allies there had stuck their middle finger, directly in the face of the Republican Party leadership, as a gesture of open defiance.

Tyranny, figuratively put, would be spat upon violently. Liberty would be, thus, praised gloriously. Americanism would be affirmed. The American tradition, as it was known to the historian Clarence Carson in his book entitled: The American Tradition, would be effectively vindicated. The patriots of Valley Forge would, so to speak, be lovingly saluted, and the Liberty Bell, in terms of history, would ring. And, in contrast, the statist Iron Triangle may, fortunately, shake with fear.

The important message, the momentous meaning of such an incredible event, should then be very clear, in the notable face of an orchestrated and quite well-coordinated propagandistic campaign so cleverly directed at him. Considering the tremendously massive level and extent of absolute vilification that has included nearly any imaginable epithet of despicable rage, scorn, contempt, mockery, ridicule, disdain, derision, disparagement, disrespect, etc. possible, it would be, in effect, nearly miraculous.

Of course, the greater odds of his ever, supposedly, getting the Republican nomination are, at least, over a million to one, surely, the longest nominee longshot in the entire history of American politics. At that highly speculative point in (future) time, it would be hoped that he would not then become just the new Barry Goldwater of this so sorely troubled political era. And yet, in the cause of human liberty, it would be to the good if the reactionaries were to be defeated, for liberty is indivisible.

God save the Republic!
