Enrolled, Cajoled, And Controlled

This post is from November 22nd:       

          OK, let's explore how this whole thing happened. We'll start with John Dewey. No, he's not part of Duck Dynasty's legal team...Huey, Dewey and Louie, he was a bunch of things back in the early 1900s but most disastrously....an educational reformer and was sometimes called the Father of Modern Education. He helped reform education into a politicized reeducation camp for anyone who may have been initially instructed by God-fearing parents. At Fox News as I write is an article titled "President of university founded by Jefferson asked to not quote Jefferson." You can read it for yourself and weep at the insanity, or for a more detailed description of the disaster in our educational system you might read my post from October 31st titled Crimes Of The Educators from a book reviewed there of that title..
          So, it took about a century but our youth are now primarily under the control of employment specialists in full academic regalia. This is why our youth have no idea the horrors of communism or even understand what communism is. They are enrolled, cajoled and controlled, and this at a time when we need young people to stand up for their country, but they mostly sit back and watch others march, if not marching themselves, to a socialist ethos.
       The Democrat Party was hijacked. Former Senator Jim Webb entered the primaries in this past election but found out just how much....or rather just how little....the Democrat Party from his youth  still existed.
       As for the media.....let me paraphrase the first words of the 1970 film Love Story....What can you say about a 326 year old profession that died? That it was once honorable and courageous? That it once loved its country and its constitution and all of us? I watched network news from about 9:00 o'clock on this past election night and heard the commentators offer the most inane comments on why Hillary Clinton was not winning. Not once....not one solitary time did anyone mention the Pay-to-Play of the Clinton Foundation or the daily stream of WikiLeaks that showed the corruption in the Democrat Party and Mrs. Clinton! Folks...this is still America....and no cadre of communist rabble-rousers can by themselves turn us into a banana republic ripe for a Marxist takeover.....but we can do it to ourselves and are in the process of doing just that....Donald Trump notwithstanding.
      Speaking of Donald Trump.....as I have penned in these posts many times....this groundswell of patriotism began long ago while Mr. Trump was still firing people on his television show. Trump added nothing except his bravado but ultimately he was the horse that would carry the mail. We celebrated.....well I should only speak for myself.....I celebrated more the departure of the other miscreants and misfits leaving than his arriving. Apparently on yesterday's television show 60 Minutes he actually advocated abolishing the electoral college....in the future of course. This comment alone....but there have been others...shows that he will need full time guidance because the wisdom will not be coming from within Mr. Trump.
       So this is somewhat how it happened...how we find ourselves counting the days until Barack Obama leaves office and then hoping against hope for Donald Trump to become another Ronald Reagan. I try to block this from my mind but when I look at Donald Trump I see King Saul. Conservatives demanded a king, figuratively speaking. God relented and gave us what we demanded, but it wasn't a king that we needed, or a champion, rather it was the King of Kings. 
        Stephen K. Bannon was front and certain in the news today as he was named President-elect Donald Trump's chief strategist and senior counselor. I tried my best in posts over the last few months to contact Mr. Bannon about this issue of Donald Trump's religious beliefs, or lack of them. I included these words... "he (Donald Trump) will need to at least regretfully admit that he has never given due reverence to the God who had blessed this nation from before it was even a nation, nor has he done what our forefathers and Founding Fathers had done in acknowledging the providence of Almighty God in our welfare."  Pray for this man Donald Trump throughout the day, for he is surely heading into battle and has not sought nor even considered God's hand in the destiny of nations.
