Reflections on Termites and Cockroaches

The American House Has a Serious Infestation Problem

//The political system is broken//

I don't think this will garner much of an argument. This is not to say the blueprint for the "House of State" is obsolete or even defective. More like we have a profound termite and cockroach infestation.

In Washington they are usually called "special interests" so that we can put an easy label on the problem. For purposes of apt description the cockroaches are the money interests and the termites are the socialists. As one might surmise cockroaches can be dealt with, though never completely exterminated, nor should they be, they can be controlled. The termites, however, are chewing through the very foundation of America.

In the name of social justice they act as an interwoven force bent on the destruction of the America we know in favor of the socialist paradise clods like Stalin and Khrushchev failed to create. They have been at it since the dawn of the 20th century. Quite amazingly their work spans the generations and they have been spectacularly successful. They are in fact on the verge of installing (yes, installing) one of their own as the President of the United States.

I know this sounds very conspiratorial, a fantasy of a demented mind that sees the boogie man behind every closet door. So be it.

What about the cockroaches? The diseases they carry can be just as devastating to a household as rotted joists. There is a difference, a big difference. Cockroaches are opportunists. If and when this house crumbles to the ground in a heap of poverty and despair the cockroaches will be there to make a living, exploiting whatever resources are left behind. Cockroaches are self interested and greedy. They don't care to remake the world. They do not desire the destruction of the house, but they'll make the best of it when it happens.

When you boil it all down the evidence is clear: the termites (socialists/communists) would like to see the success that is unique to the United States crumple and fold. It really is as simple as that. They like to pretend that they want to return this country to the grandest traditions of our past as if they had nothing to do with its impending destruction. But they are the impending destruction - by design.

// The questions one has to ask is why - and - why do they appear to be be so successful?//

As to the "why"... Termites simply believe those who occupy America are downtrodden workers, minorities and immigrants - the proverbial little guy. They are the woman being held down by an unfair patriarchal system. They are the poor, the weak and the victimized. They have been wronged and cheated since birth. Most are so oppressed and disenfranchised that they don't even know it. Yet they bear zero responsibility for their plight. Neither their faults nor failings are their own, ever: they are continually exploited and manipulated by the cockroaches. This is all they see when they think of America.

The solution, of course, is to tear down virtue, individualism and personal responsibility and erect a beneficent government in its place. Saving the oppressed from their sorry lives, the termite agenda demands the denial of personal responsibility, encourages self-pity, encourages dependency, promotes sexual hedonism and condones civil disobedience and violence against our institutions. They will excuse the financial obligation of the borrower while demanding the lender continue to make bad loans to the undeserving.

It doesn't have to be that way they will tell you... In the termite hive you will be cared for from cradle to grave and all you have to do is comply. The cost? Not to worry - the government will pay for it all.

This, of course, is unsustainable and our society as we know it will collapse. I believe we are seeing the beginning (or the acceleration) of it even now. The current financial turmoil will ultimately be blamed on the cockroaches, but the cockroaches are only leveraging the opportunity laid at their feet by the termites. Cockroaches are indeed despicable and greedy. But it was the termites (socialist Democrats) who created the environment for the subprime fiasco through their wholly owned subsidiaries Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. The facts are clear. But when the termites masquerade as cockroaches the lines get blurred and the truth gets buried in the rubble.

As to why the the termites have been so successful it's simply because they are patient and resourceful - they are in it for the long haul. They have infested the government, the schools and the media. They pray on the innate jealousy most of us have of the rich and privileged.

// The key to their genius strategy is America's youth//

The way to destroy a nation is to separate its youth from its parents and its history. The portal to the nation's youth is the public school and public university system. The educational system, particularly since the 1960's, has been controlled by teachers unions. Even the teachers who want no part of America's destruction cannot fight the union. Most good teachers, whether liberal leaning or not, leave the system. The rest are well meaning pawns or are complicit.

Those bent on the destruction of America in favor of an "International" government seem to always open up the old wounds. So slavery, the slaughter of the indigenous peoples of North America, women's suffrage and a whole host of blemishes that succumbed to the self-correcting moral compass of the American people are continually thrown in our faces by the termites. Our children see and hear this insufferable litany day after day in class, in the movies and in the media. America is always wrong, always has been.

The loss of our moral compass is a deliberate ploy by the NEA, the ACLU, Hollywood actors and college professors to name just a few. They have a visceral need to destroy white men, conservatives, and especially Christians. They will excuse anyone within their ranks who has gone astray, because of course they are just victims, but will condemn (demanding the removal of) any one on the other side.

Again, you can say this sounds very conspiratorial - it is.

The NEA promotes a anti-American agenda by declaring that "allegiance to a nation is the biggest stumbling block to the creation of international government. National boundaries and the concept of sovereignty must be abolished. The quickest way to do this is to condition the young to another and broader alliance. Opinion favorable to international government will be developed in the social studies curriculum in the public schools." And anyone who disagrees with NEA? They will be given special sensitivity training, since the diversity training forced on them at the beginning of the year obviously didn’t take. Most teachers have no say in the education of the children. They truly have no choice in the matter.

Many parents have chosen homeschooling, private schools or charter schools if it is available to them. But for most people they have no choice but to use the public schools. For 30 years fixing the dismal state of public education has been a "priority" and yet it has slipped further and further behind.

If America is to be saved public education must be rescued from the unions and from Federal control. Dire warning, I know, but I am not the only one who is saying it. Sadly, I have almost zero confidence that it will happen.

// Lastly, common sense is dead - by design//

This is the saddest development of all. Through this thing we blithely call political correctness the termites have rotted common sense from the inside out. Everyone I know, liberal, conservative or politically agnostic hates political correctness. Yet we are all slaves to it. Why?

Political Correctness like most any concern has some truth and justice to it. Like any concern when taken to nth degree it becomes ridiculous. When something that is considered by everyone to be past the point of ridiculousness and then made into law it becomes dangerous. That's where we are. Ever so slowly the forces behind political correctness (the termites) are strangling us with laws designed to stifle free speech and even our free thoughts - ever hear of hate crimes? Even premeditated murder requires the prosecutor to present evidence of the premeditation. Not so with hate crimes. This is just the tip of the ice berg and more proof that common sense is dead in American public life.

The real shame is that the lion's share of the American people either 1.) don't care (or won't until it's too late) or 2.) are so blinded by the manufactured hatred of the caricature of America the socialists present in the mass media they become complicit by default. Either way we lose.

There are plenty of us raising the alarms through blogs and talk radio and even a few on the TV that survive being shouted down. Because many of us are Christians or white men we won't get our due. Despite the fact that the termites point the finger at us and call us cockroaches (whom everybody hates) we persevere.

Examine your own beliefs

It's perfectly all right to hate the cockroaches too - they have their part in the impending destruction of our society. But they are the dirty bath water not the baby. The termites are tossing both out - by design.
