TRUST - Mark Levin - on most everything, but especially anything related to the Constitution of the United States, and its founding. He is absolutely the best and most direct speaker I have heard on most of the subjects of the current news, political actions, and subjects relative to the degradation of our great country by and through big government.

I'm looking at Levin's Wikipedia profile here, and surprisingly, it seems that there are some issues on which he and I would agree.  I think it should surely be obvious to any thinking individual, that the American government no longer takes the Constitution seriously at this point, and has not done so for close to 40 years now.  Levin's perspective that the country is in a "post-Constitutional phase," is therefore correct.

Where I would strongly disagree, however, is with the assertion that Obama or the people behind him are advocates of Utopian government.  Unfortunately, Levin appears to subscribe to the delusion that there is a fundamental difference between the practical agendas persued by Republican and Democratic administrations; when in reality, there is no difference whatsoever.

The only difference between the Republican and Democratic styles of government, and I have said this before, is that Republican administrations are nakedly, openly psychopathic.  The Republican party makes no attempt to hide its' fascism whatsoever; and I think we saw this most openly with Bush and Cheney.



As I once wrote in the comments for this video, "All rise for the anthem of the American Republican Party."

On the other hand, while a Democratic administration will be no less authoritarian or tyrannical than the Republicans, the difference lies in the type of image which it tries to portray to the people.  The Democratic party employs charisma and deception to falsely convince the electorate that the government is still persuing said electorate's best interests, even when it demonstrably is not.

Obama is a master of this, and of shifting blame.  No matter what tyrannical act his government is found guilty of having committed, openly at least, Obama always manages to portray himself as either being entirely innocent, or even opposed to the autocratic action or policy in question.  Later, of course, we find out that the exact opposite is true; and that Obama himself will in fact be more in favour of any measure which confiscates freedom from the people, than virtually anyone else, despite his public claims.

Where I suspect Mr Levin and I would also bitterly disagree, is due to the fact that I am not an advocate of Capitalism; and my opposition to Capitalism comes from direct personal experience.  I am not, however, as he might suspect, a Marxist-Leninist Communist, as I am aware that the type of Communism of which he (falsely; I've spoken to ML Communists online, and they emphatically denounce Obama) accuses Obama is a strawman, which was employed specifically for the purpose of publically discrediting Kropotkin's genuine Socialism. 

Marx, Lenin, and Trotsky were servants of the Eye, and I recognise them as such, and reject their philosophy on that basis.
