Comments on: Election 2006: One reason to vote Democrat. http://butler-harris.org/archives/65 How can you have the last word if you haven't heard the first?

The Democratic was the natural place for Christians to be in the 19th century. The Republican was the gathering place for the jacobins and radicals that destroyed the Constitution in its original intent. Some say the Parties traded places in the 20th century, but I think that is simplistic. If you can show how they have been explicitly captured by a third force, I'm all ears. Right now, I see it in more general terms: more along the lines of Augustine's battle between the two cities -- with both our Parties serving as rival agencies in service to the City of Man.

The Republicans are the party whereby the Illuminists achieve their goals through tricky and deceit. Both parties will kill us. And, the elections are rigged, so it really doesn't matter.

Both parties will kill us.

And, the elections are rigged, so it really doesn’t matter.
