With the Flynn/Sessions Kabuki theatre prominently displayed every night on the news do you ever wonder where
the left comes up with the ridiculous over the top displays of vindictiveness ?
Saul Alinski's ( Rules for Radicals ) was published in 1971 and all Americans need to read and understand the textbook
the left uses to lead and undermine the public perception of political rhetoric.
Hillary Clinton wrote her college dissertation on this book !

Yep. Its all snake oil to get potheads and college kids to prop up these Statist A holes.

All this,'We are the World' cultism/religion that claims I have to like sorry, shiftless bums.

If being a whore is the oldest profession then being a thief/robber/looter is the second

Sun Tzu said you have to know your enemy, so of course I have read it and own a copy.

Hitler, Hassan al Banna, Marx, Mao, read them all. If possible I try and read the book in the original language to better understand the book. I am only able to do this in a few languages unlike my mentor who was fluent in 37 languages.

After I read the rules everything the left does started to make perfect sense.

Yup, got mine, all highlighted and underlined. Alinsky was a real asshole, and mentored a lot more of them to plague us.

I prefer John Boyd, who had a real low tolerance for stupidity...

Same here, more importantly if something is considered "dangerously subversive" or a "genuine threat to civilization" I have to read it out of morbid curiosity. The downside of that is I've read some truly moronic things that were more than a chore to get all the way through.

For every "Unintended Consequences" there is a "Turner Diaries." Unintended Consequences was entertaining for the most part and chronicles a lot of actual history, the Turner Diaries on the other hand was mind numbingly painful to read.

Honestly if we just made Mein Kampf, Das Kapital, The Communist Manifesto and The Little Red Book required reading in high school there would probably never be another national socialist or communist ever again. Each of them were tedious, monotonous and the most amazing thing about any of them is that they inspired more than 100 followers.

It was probably in the 4th grade when I concluded it's all BS and can't be true. Although there were a couple girls starting in Junior High that made me consider heaven to be a real possibility.

Among many others, Alinsky is proof that McCarthy and Forrestal were absolutely 100% correct.
btw both men were done in by the Communists that infiltrated the US government at the highest levels.

Absolutely! Many folks called me a loon for saying that very thing. The most dangerous ones are the unelected bureaucrats who remain nameless and faceless while they eat away at America.

After you get done reading Saul's book, read Jeff's:

Technically she did her thesis on the the author rather than the book, but it's well known, especially since they took the trouble to "classify" it during the Clinton presidency.

Yep, it is the height of irony that "McCarthyism" is still viewed as a negative in light of declassified Soviet records that show he was absolutely correct in many of his identifications.
