The Political Left And The Criminalization Of Dissent: An attack on the Constitution and reason

By Rob Janicki

Here's a view into the disordered and flat out unhinged thinking of the very radical liberal progressives these days.  It's pure political theater for the sycophant zombie followers of the radical liberal progressives.  These people have transplanted their absolute hate to replace reason and logic and those spearheading this action are consciously using the ignorance of these followers to foment an argument that does not exist in fact or law.

MoveOn.org wants Republican leaders arrested for "seditious conspiracy" against the U.S. The initiative, of course, won't get anywhere, but it does provide a peek into how some among us respond to disagreement.

Signers of MoveOn.org's online petition are asking the Justice Department "to arrest Republican Majority Leader Eric Cantor, Speaker of the House John Boehner and other decision-making House Republican leaders" for shutting down the government and threatening the economy with default in "an attempt to extort the United States government into altering or abolishing the Affordable Care Act."

This is an amazing adventure into a fantasy world of the very radical left that passes for reasoned thought.  It's merely an emotional outburst designed to continue to generate public pressure against Republicans, but asserting a specious and false narrative that somehow the Republicans, independent of any other political forces, singlehandedly caused the shutdown of the federal government.  It's a ludicrous assertion with no basis in fact.

The Obama administration had everything to gain politically from a shutdown of government and the proof is that the Obama administration quickly moved to make the shutdown as public and painful as possible for Americans, while creating the false narrative that it was the fault of the Republicans.

Here's the reasoning to refute the assertion of the radial leftists.  It takes time to shut down government, yet as soon as the  appointed time had elapsed to pass the Continuing Resolution to continue funding government, the government, specifically at the direction of the Obama administration, and within 24 hours, shutdown all National Parks and virtually all federal buildings and properties to public access.  There was no prioritization of what would be closed down.  It happened immediately and across the entire spectrum of government.  This could not have happened without months of planning driven with a purpose.  And that purpose has clearly been demonstrated.  Make the shutdown bring pressure and pain down upon average Americans in all walks of life and blame Republicans for all of it.

We saw the federal government try to coerce various states, quasi federal agencies and non-governmental organizations into closing down their facilities, all in the name of the shutdown of government caused by the Republicans.  It was just another example of the use of the Big Lie the liberal progressive left uses on a regular basis.  Saul Alinksky's "Rules for Radicals" clearly lays out the use of the Big Lie, which is to lie and lie again and as often as possible to insert the lie into the public psyche as common knowledge.  Read the complete IBD editorial to see how thoroughly unhinged these radical leftists really are.  Their ignorance is simply staggering in its breadth.
