OPINION: Home of the knave and land of the sheep...?

The recent disclosure that the leader of the NAACP office in Spokane is a complete fraud and a phony comes as no surprise to me.

I have been studying and analyzing “bleeding heart liberals” Democrats, socialists, and communists for the past 30 years. It has been a very close analytical exercise like an entomologist studies the infestation by insects with a magnifying glass and microscope.

This sickness in America called “racism” and “racist” has managed to turn the United States of America upside down and inside out. Falsely alleged “racism” is what caused the 2008 collapse of our banking system. Democratic members of Congress were alleging that major banks were discriminating against blacks and Hispanics due to the inordinately high ratio of rejections for mortgage loan applications. In fact the banks were rejecting their applications based on their very poor credit history and not the color of their skin.

But, as is too often the case, with our socialist-infiltrated federal government, they abused their regulatory authority over banks and twisted the banks’ arms by refusal to grant mergers, applications for locating new ATMs, etc., etc.

The federal government intimidated and extorted private banking enterprise into granting hundreds of billions of dollars in loans to people with clearly demonstrated poor credit histories. And they guaranteed these billions in bad loans with the full faith and credit of the United States of America. That is you and I, and all of my fellow taxpayers, Caucasian or otherwise.

Oh, and finally, to top off all the lies and falsehoods perpetuated by the deeply embedded socialists and communist Democrat political hacks in the federal government, there was a report created by the Federal Reserve Bank documenting that Asian Americans (Japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese, etc.) received mortgage loan approvals at higher ratios than Caucasian Americans. Why? Because their credit reports demonstrated a superior credit risk over Caucasian loan applications.

What did Martin Luther King say? “Judge a man by the content of his character rather than the color of his skin.” That is precisely what the banks were doing before they found themselves drowning in the false lies of “racism” and “race politics” overwhelmingly fostered by Democrats.

As is so often the case, alleged “racism” was used as a trick and a lie to destroy our banking system and usher the United States to the brink of bankruptcy.

I have observed frequently, that fixation on “racism” by bleeding heart liberals can develop into a mental illness exhibiting irrational behavior bordering on insanity.

The recent case involving Rachel Dolezal falsely claiming to be a Negro leader of the Spokane NAACP chapter, is topped by the case involving Kerri Dunn, a white professor of psychology at Claremont McKenna College in California. Sometime back in 2004, Ms. Dunn was desperate to highlight proof of “race hatred” on the campus of the college. Unable to find any cases at all, Ms. Dunn became insanely desperate to prove that race hatred was rampant on the college campus.  

Ms. Dunn had parked her car in a remote parking lot on the campus. What she didn’t know was that a nearby classroom with one-way see-out glass was full of students. As Ms. Dunn vandalized her own car by slashing her tires, and spray painting racial insults such as “N..er Lover” the students were stunned into silence. Only after Ms. Dunn submitted a false insurance claim, and a false police report for vandalism of her car, did students come forward and expose her insane behavior, her blatant lies and deceit. At the time, it became a major story in the Los Angeles Times.

An excellent book I have read in my deep research and analysis of how and why liberal Democrats are steadily destroying our Constitution, freedom and liberty is titled “The Liberal Mind: The Psychological Causes of Political Madness,” by Lyle Rossiter. Rossiter is a court certified forensic psychiatrist who can give expert testimony as to the sanity or insanity of a criminal or civil defendant.

This book is an in-depth examination of the liberal political madness of our time — the radical left’s desire to regulate people from cradle to grave. The denial of personal responsibility, encouraging self-pity, fostering dependency on government, promoting sexual indulgence rationalizing violence, excusing financial obligations, justifying theft, ignoring rudeness, encouraging complaining and blaming others, denigrates marriage and the family, legalizing abortion, legitimizing homosexual depravity, defying religious and social traditions, declaring inequality unjust, and rebelling against the duties of citizenship.

Finally, let me close with an excellent citation from the Bible. Ecclesiastes 10:2, International Standard Version: “A wise man’s heart tends toward his right, but a fool’s heart tends toward his left.”
