The headlines on World Net Daily addressed the recent vote taken by CONgress to acknowledge Christmas. It drew attention to the CONgress critters that opposed the measure, noting that many of them had supported the ramadan measure passed in recent months. The article identifies Diana Degette as a major player among the democrats not supporting Christmas. In thinking over the situation and researching her stands on issues this vote is consistent with her positions.
Diana DeGette is pro-choice, which indicates that the value of life is conditional with her. My own observation is that a person’s attitude toward children, both born and unborn is a good indicator of their attitude toward life in general and their politics. She does not value life, so why should she value Christmas? She has labored hard for women to have access to abortions, so for her to devalue a celebration commemorating the birth of our Lord is consistent with her position. Although a territory at the time of the war, Colorado was firmly in Yankee hands (taken in a sham land deal from Texas by the way). It is clear that that Yankee spirit still lives in Colorado in the form of Ms. Degette.
The writer, Charles Dickens said “The Northern onslaught upon slavery was no more than a piece of specious humbug designed to conceal its true desire for economic control of the Southern states“. Dickens knew humbug when he saw it. It sounds like Ms. Degette has some true Yankee humbug in her as well. Let’s take a closer look at where her money comes from:
DIANA DEGETTE (D-CO)
Top Industries The top industries supporting Diana DeGette are:
Are there any surprises here? Lawyers are her top supporters. She is a lawyer, and more specifically a civil rights lawyer. With all her efforts at keeping abortion clinics opened, who is surprised at health professionals as her #2 contributor? Would it surprise you that she favors gun control, using the government force in telling employers who to hire, favors hate crime legislation, wants sexual orientation protected by civil rights, and strongly opposes the death penalty? Here is a site that details her stands on the issues. She and Tom Tancredo have gone head to head on the CHIP program which included providing health services to the children of illegal aliens especially the issue of children having to show proof of citizenship. She forgets that it isn’t her money that she is wanting to give away to others.
She is also a big supporter of embryonic stem cell research. (follow the money..). It sounds like the Yankees of old that Dickens warned us about. Her pro-choice stance is not so much about the stated issue of helping women, but rather making money off of the abortion business through embryonic stem cell research. She understands that Christmas is about celebrating birth. She is more interested in making money from children that are not born, increasing the size of government and generally keeping the democratic political policy machine going like her predecessor Pat Schroeder than in celebrating and honoring birth.
What does this have to do with Southern Independence? It exposes the humbug of the Yankees who seek greater amounts of control over the lives of Southrons and want more of their money. It shows us the true values of those Yankees who are serving as CONgress critters, by looking at what they do and not what they say. Despite all her concerns for the safety of toys, she has done more to make it easier to eliminate children than to protect them. She needs some of the true spirit of Christmas. Dickens saw through the Yankees of the 19th century and it would benefit us to see through the Yankees of the 21st century. It alerts us the importance of family and the dangers of those opposed to it.
Free the South from such people who hate our traditions and way of life!
Free Texas!
