Without doubt neither one of these parties can handle power. Republicans are trying to rule from an emasculated don’t make anyone mad position, while the Democrats are still bed-wetting and trying desperately to apply Machiavellian discipline to their party. These bed-wetting wannabes would kill to remain in power. While the Republicans are still trying to find their political compass, and; the only non-emasculated possibility resides in Fred Thompson as I see it! What is the Machiavellian theory for power?
Niccolò Machiavelli was the Italian political philosopher and diplomat who was best known for his treatise The Prince. In the book, Machiavelli espoused the use of ruthless and unscrupulous tactics to gain and hold onto political power, stating that the end justifies the means. The term Machiavellian came to be used to describe a person who has no hesitation in using deceit and cunning to achieve his own selfish goals.
Can we see the Demoncratic Party in Machiavelli’s theory? Would they do anything to gain and hold onto power? Would they use cunning and deceit? Why! That sounds like Hillary’s middle name, doesn’t it? Wait a minute; I thought her middle name was Rotten, or; is that Rodham? Whatever! What would your top ten lists of all time hated things or people be comprised of? Would it contain any of the following? This list is by no means comprehensive. This is not my all time hate list, and; neither is it in order of significance. Just a few random thoughts…
1. Career Politicians
2. Lobbyists
3. Gangster Rappers
4. Democrats
5. Child Molesters
6. Page Molesters
7. Republicans
8. Televangelists
9. Homosexuals
10. Muslim fundamentalists
The Republican Party is the party of free enterprise and capitalism. This means exploitation wherever you can find it. If making a dollar means moving the company to another country where you can pay the people in beads and trinkets, they will. If it means selling oil, gas, your soul, they will. If there is profit to be found, they would kill their mother for it. If there is a war to start so money can be made-count on it! Anything for profit on one side of the fence and; anything for power on the other! What a mess!
