We’ve got to save Democracy, is the left’s new talking point, designed to replace the old debunked Russia collusion hoax.  Or as Kurt Schlichter said in Townhall, “Democrats Want to Destroy Democracy to Save It.”

Democrats brought popcorn onto the floor of the House of Representatives to mock Republicans as they did due diligence in voting for the speaker of the House.  Then the Dems even jeered when Rep. Kat Cammack (R) accused them of having alcoholic beverages on the floor in addition to popcorn.

The Democrats/socialists want to make this look like a circus for their media cameras.  They ignore the fact that this is what Republican voters wanted their representatives to do.  Democrats, by comparison, usually listen only to people who agree with them — not the peasants.

When finally elected speaker of the House, Kevin McCarthy said, “Our nation is worth fighting for.”  How different this is from Pelosi, who said that in D.C., you have to seize power because it is not given. That shows the difference between the two philosophies — differences that many in the media just don’t understand.

Recently, Susan Page published a book, Madam Speaker: Nancy Pelosi and the Lessons of Power.  It’s telling that a book about a U.S. public servant talks about power rather than service, but Democrats always seem to be about power and not freedoms, democracy, or what is best for Americans.

On January 5, Pelosi said the Republicans’ “cavalier attitude in electing a speaker was frivolous, disrespectful, and unworthy of this institution.”  She also said that “all who serve in the House share a responsibility to bring dignity to this body.”

CNN’s Chris Wallace and guest Stephen Colbert agreed and said that such problems would never have occurred under Pelosi.  Colbert referred to Kevin McCarthageddon and referred to “people like Kevin McCarthy, who are overt hypocrites, who clearly sold their soul for political power and get nothing in return.”  (Democrats always seem to want a return on their investments.)

There is so much material to work with here that it’s hard to know where to start.

First, of course the fight for the speakership wouldn’t have happened under Pelosi.  It wouldn’t have happened under Stalin, Hitler, or Mao, either.  As my dad said about the Democrat party, the Bolsheviks never break ranks (or they’re never allowed to).  For instance, a recent report says that less than 40 percent of Democrats approve of the Democrats’ new House minority leader, Hakeem Jeffries — but ordinary Democrats are never asked for their opinions.

As for people who sold their souls for political power, look at Pelosi and her career politician father, Thomas D’Alesandro, Jr.  Nancy has reportedly said that her father taught her from a young age that “no one is going to give you power.  You have to seize it.”  Since entering the political arena, she has obviously followed and echoed her dad’s advice.  History shows she has fought for as much power as she could get — like other totalitarians before her.
