Bible study

From Ecclesiastes chapter 1 we read:
9 The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.
10 Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us.

And so it is with politics. We think that this propaganda effort from the left is something new. Not really.

агитпроп

That funny Russian word is what we call Agit-prop for the Soviet technique of “urging” people to endorse Communism (agitate) through “disseminating information" (propaganda).

And Obama has pulled out all the stops on health care. You’ve got ACORN, and the SEIU, and Moveon.org, and FactCheck.org, and MediaMatters, and CNN, and MSNBC, and ABC (except Jake Tapper).

It’s funny he doesn’t have the support of the Congressional Budget Office or the Congressional Research Service. But let’s not bother with that.

Agit-prop turned ugly in California when a “Moveon-er” walked through an anti-Obama group at a health care reform rally. A 65-year-old man took a swing at the leftie and so the leftie bit off his pinkie.

Now, that may be a first, Preacher.
