Why do Democrats cheat? By Matthew J. Chellis There is ample evidence for those who care to see it, that the Presidential election was stolen. Peter Navarro’s report, entitled "The Immaculate Deception: Six Key Dimensions of Election Irregularities," is also a must read. My question is: Why is the fraud always on one side? Why do Democrats cheat? The population has never been more polarized. Conservatives and regressives (they are not progressive and they are not liberal) no longer worship the same God, share the same values, honor the same heroes and history, or agree on the meaning of human existence. We also no longer share a view of the nature and purposes of government. This country was founded on shared Judeo-Christian beliefs. Even without a common religion, we still shared basic beliefs that our rights and responsibilities are ordained by Almighty God. It’s spelled out in our Founding document, the Declaration of Independence: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.-- That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, -- That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.” Those of us who respect the Founding Father's understanding of God-given rights respect their vision of limited government that follows from that. Our rights come from God, not from government. It has become clear that Democrats do not believe this. Democrats believe that our rights come from government. Therefore, government can decide what rights we have, can grant new rights and take away rights at the will of those in power. Take the “universal right to healthcare” for example. This is not a right in the sense that we believe in rights. God does not operate a healthcare system and grant universal access. God-given rights do not impose burdens on others. Government-granted “rights” force people into involuntary servitude in order to provide them. Once you come to grips with this moral divide it becomes easier to understand why Democrats cheat. For if you believe that rights come from government it is a very short jump to “the ends justify the means.” If what you believe is that more government power and control means more rights it becomes understandable that for Democrats anything goes and win by any means necessary. John Adams warned us: “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” Read more: https://www.americanthinker.co..._.html#ixzz6iJCqxrgKThis message has been edited.

Why do they do it, and why do most Americans tolerate it? "A scorpion and a frog meet on the bank of a babbling stream. It's too treacherous to cross, so the scorpion nicely asks the frog to carry him across on its back. This makes the frog a little suspicious. It asks, “How do I know you won’t sting me?” The scorpion says, “Because if I do, I will die too.” That sound reasoning relaxes the frog's nerves. So he allows the scorpion to climb aboard and they shove off across the flowing water. They get halfway across the stream and the scorpion stings the frog directly in the middle of his back. The frog feels the onset of the scorpion's poison and starts to sink. He manages one dying breath: "Why?!" And the scorpion replies: “It’s my nature…" _____________ "I enter a swamp as a sacred place—a sanctum sanctorum. There is the strength—the marrow of Nature." - Henry David Thoreau | |||

Why they do it is simple: It's the only way they can win. Why we let them get away with it is what eludes me. Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent. | |||

From the comments to the linked article, probably better said than I did in the article: At the root of the question, "Why do Democrats cheat?", is the existence of good and evil. God is GOOD and humanism is EVIL. The fruits of the adherents of those competing philosophies are naturally going to differ. As the author correctly pointed out, we have a nation founded on the principles promulgated by our Judeo-Christian God. By definition, God is good, and the things He demands/expects are good by implication. God loves INDIVIDUALS, not collectives, and He expects us to attempt to do His will and also to prosper as individuals, enjoying the fruits of our own labor. His Word includes this command: "If anyone is not willing to work, let him not eat." (2 Thess 3:10) In other words, we are responsible for ourselves and our families. Personal responsibility is the key. Democrats, on the other hand, reject the true God (which is, by definition, an evil position) and embrace human government as their god. It follows, then, that they look to their god, the government, to fulfill every need and solve every problem. (This is the antithesis of the Judeo-Christian mindset.) It makes sense, in their world of government-worship, that they MUST control the government in order to achieve their desired ends. Anything that MUST be done justifies the position "by any means necessary." Cheating is not wrong to Democrats, it is merely a tool... or, as Nancy Pelosi phrased it, it is just "one of the arrows in her quiver." "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||

They don't view themselves being without morals. Quite the contrary. They view our side as evil, and are willing to break the rules to defeat evil. They fear the American right more than any communist dictator in the world right now. Frankly, I think progress with be made when all of this the other side is evil crap is dispensed with. _________________________ OH, Bonnie McMurray! | |||

This right here. If they were to tell the people what they will actually do, and show their true colors, no one would vote for them. Also the MSM aka Fake News, which is the propaganda arm of the Dimwhitcrap party, actually did their job, again we the people would know 1000 times the dirt and corruption of the Dimwhitcraps and no one would ever vote for them.

Chellim explained it well. The problem is exasperated by the fact that the Republican party is led by career politicians more than willing to be cuckolded if they can keep their positions and share in the spoils. | |||

I'm coming to the conclusion its not left/right, Democrat/Republican, red/blue anymore. The conflict is about ruling class vs. subject class. All we see in Washington is WWE. For show and narrative. Sometimes the punches land and blood is drawn but for the most its a game. And, when the participants finally monetize their seat that's the big pay off. Ever wonder how many of these politicians are worth 10 times what they were before being elected? For example when Trent Lott was run out of the Senate the establishment walked him over to K Street and a 3 million dollar bonus for becoming a lobbyist. Originally posted by kramden: "Because if they were honest in telling you what they intend to do , no one would vote for them." I disagree with this statement. I know many leftists who would vote for pure socialism and worse. People aren't stupid but they've fallen for the we want equality of outcome, and we will sacrifice freedom for security. And, I suspect millions would vote for it. This argument is nothing new and has been going on since the founding. When the left owns education and the media and entertainment what would you expect? And, what is the right doing to counter these things? As pointed out above they seem content with some of the scraps from the table. The party of smaller government? The last time that's happened was 90 years ago. The party of lower tax rates. The last rate reduction over 5 percent happened 35 years ago. The fiscally responsible party? Since when? People here need to start holding the right accountable too and insist they do better. _________________________ OH, Bonnie McMurray! | |||

Because it doesn't affect their personal lives. Quality of their lives doesn't change. So, what do they care? Q | |||

The problem is that one side just wants to be left alone, free to live their lives without government interference, as much as is possible. The other side wishes to impose its' will on all. Until recently, we have tried to just ignore the left and go about our lives. But we have allowed them to advance so far over the last 100 years that that is no longer possible.

To add to this, the ends justify the means especially when there's no consequences for getting caught. And they have no honor. | |||

I think ignoring your political opponent is a big mistake. I think we need to get our house in order before asking others to come on board. When you are just the other side of the same coin we are dooming ourselves to razor thin contested elections in the future. _________________________ OH, Bonnie McMurray! | |||

It's the old adage: locks are only to keep honest people out. "It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946. | |||

Back, and to the left |
Your entire post was very well put. The phrase quoted reminded me of some tenets of Islam and the Koran that say essentially the same. Lying and cheating are perfectly acceptable and effectively required in the pursuit of getting 'infidels' to convert, or die. | |||

"lack of morals"? Like voting for someone who has all his life traded in wives... slept with porn stars and refused to pay small business after they did work for him? Sorry, and I'm sure most of you believe that is all lies.... My Native American Name: "Runs with Scissors" | |||
