Their Consciences Troubled . . . But Democrats Prefer Nursing Anger To Healing Their Broken Morals

By DEXTER DUGGAN

Could a remarkable television performance by an armless Romanian teenager give Democrats an idea of how they could restore their political party and pull it away from its anger, desperation, and culture of death?
On June 6 LifeSiteNews.com posted a story and video about 14-year-old Lorelai Mosnegutu, born lacking both her arms and the upper part of her leg bones, so she’s short. The lovely teenager wowed the “Romania’s Got Talent” European audience in March, moving them to tears with her beautiful singing voice as she played a piano with her toes.
The impressive performance might have recalled Scottish Susan Boyle’s surprising debut on “Britain’s Got Talent” in 2009, singing I Dreamed a Dream — except Boyle suffered only the disability of having an awkward rural look, while Mosnegutu, abandoned at birth and given little hope for survival, was rescued by foster parent Veronica Parvulescu to meet tough challenges.
LifeSiteNews.com said the teenager’s motto is, “I fall 10 times and I rise 20 times.”
Hers is the inspiring kind of story that gives hope to everyone else.
However, even mere momentary “unwantedness” of healthy babies, much less physical or mental disability, is proclaimed as full justification for the massive, merciless abortion that the Democrat Party platform demands fealty to.
Preborn babies with Down syndrome systematically are being eliminated from society, too — ugly eugenics that matches Planned Parenthood’s abortion program against minorities. But national Democrats dare not tell PP no.
LifeSiteNews.com reported May 29 that a 21-year-old woman made an impassioned plea to a United Nations body in Geneva in March against aborting babies with her condition.
The news service quoted Charlotte Fien: “I am not suffering. I am not ill. None of my friends who have Down syndrome are suffering either. We live happy lives.
“We just have an extra chromosome. We are still human beings. We are not monsters. Don’t be afraid of us. . . . Please don’t try to kill us all off,” Fien was quoted.
Today’s Democratic foundation, everyone knows, isn’t your Catholic grandmother’s. It stands for permissive abortion, sexual disorientation, crippling political correctness, and hostility to basic religious principles unless they can be twisted to serve leftist politics.
Democrats yearn for votes they drove away in recent decades, without being willing to reform to win back the offended voters. If they could struggle free from the culture of death that defines them in so many people’s minds, maybe Democrats again could be regarded as wanting to help the little guy rather than kill the littlest ones by the millions, at home and abroad.
In sort of an imperfect sketch of the two major parties’ traditional ideals, Republicans are for people who can help themselves, while Democrats are for those who need help.
Nothing wrong with people who are able to help themselves. If most families in a society can’t navigate life pretty much on their own, that society is headed toward being a sinking ship.
But not everyone is able and successful, and sometimes even family and church fall short in what help they can provide. One hopes the additional assistance would come at the local or state level, not a behemoth federal government, but a helping hand can be welcome.
Maybe many Democrats’ deeply angry and dysfunctional demeanor these days arises from their consciences hurting badly. They want to be the good guys, but they counterproductively insist that abortion mills and other serious immoralities are sources of pride and progress, and Dems get mad and vengeful when voters hold them to account.
If you won’t vote for Dems, it’s only because you’re a dumb hick racist gun-loving deplorable.
Dems’ deepest hope seems simply to be to destroy President Trump. They’re jealous he’s actually at a higher moral level than they, and their bad consciences can’t stand that.
By the way, a person notices that while government insiders leak like sieves daily to hurt Trump, Barack Obama-appointed federal judge William Orrick out in San Francisco does all he can to keep damaging videos against abortionists locked up that were filmed by the Center for Medical Progress.
Self-proclaimed “elite liberal” journalist Michael Tomasky made an interesting point at the New Republic site on May 30 about the important difference between conservatives and liberals.
The conservatives, Tomasky said, are “vanguardists,” the ones who want to make a revolution happen, while the liberals are “anti-vanguardist,” just trying to protect their territory, “defensive and distrustful.”
Every liberal who converts to the right, even Donald Trump, said Tomasky, “is joyously embraced. So you’ve finally seen the light! Welcome!. . .
“Whereas the vanguardist movement that won is on the prowl for new comrades,” he continued, “the anti-vanguardist movement that lost is looking for people to blame. It’s not plotting a revolution. It’s rehashing year-old fights.”
That seems to be a pretty good description of Democratic rage now, only wanting to destroy and reject, hoping that they’ll still somehow triumph after months of insisting Russia stole the U.S. presidential election last November, or that climate change will wreck the planet without emergency Democrat intervention, or that Trump wears a magic wig whose batteries are dying.
Fired former FBI Director James Comey was to testify before a U.S. Senate committee on June 8, as this hardcopy issue of The Wanderer went to press, with Dems once more hoping that leaks and sleight of hand would help save the day for them when their own policies keep being rejected.
Interestingly, Newsweek posted on June 6 that Trump’s polling popularity actually was a little better than polling at the same point in Bill Clinton’s presidency. This despite the dominant media screaming every day that Trump is a combination of rabies and smallpox before breakfast, then his day gets worse.
However, the daily foaming, raging Washington Post website suggests it’s actually something else that has the rabies, but the Posties and their like-minded don’t grasp what a sorry spectacle their dementia is. They and their political allies are so used to calling the tune, and unhinged when they can’t.
After three Islamist terrorists murdered eight people in London the night of June 3, the Post headlined that Trump was “stoking fears.” No, no, Posty, the terrorists did that.
Public murder fantasies against Trump showed the despicable level leftists descended to. So-called comedienne Kathy Griffin thought it was good for a laugh to hold up a mock severed, blood-drenched head of Trump, while Mediaite was among sites reporting that New York City’s “Shakespeare in the Park” summer program had a Julius Caesar character who resembled Trump being stabbed.

Against U.S. Interests

When Obama signed on to the Paris Climate Accord, he didn’t dare submit it to the U.S. Senate for ratification last year because he knew how unpopular the deal was. But when Trump announced on June 1 he was leaving the bad deal behind but would like to negotiate a better deal, you’d think he’d atom-bombed Moscow, just like Barry Goldwater once joked about doing to the Kremlin men’s room.
Ooops, the Dems probably would cheer bombing Moscow these days. How politics changes.
Anyhow, in his trenchant June 1 statement, Trump said: “The Paris Climate Accord is simply the latest example of Washington entering into an agreement that disadvantages the United States to the exclusive benefit of other countries, leaving American workers — who I love — and taxpayers to absorb the cost in terms of lost jobs, lower wages, shuttered factories, and vastly diminished economic production.
“Thus, as of today, the United States will cease all implementation of the non-binding Paris Accord and the draconian financial and economic burdens the agreement imposes on our country,” Trump said.
“This includes ending the implementation of the nationally determined contribution and, very importantly, the Green Climate Fund which is costing the United States a vast fortune.”
Even if the accord was fully implemented, “with total compliance from all nations, it is estimated it would only produce a two-tenths of one degree. . . . Celsius reduction in global temperature by the year 2100. Tiny, tiny amount,” Trump said.
“In fact, 14 days of carbon emissions from China alone…would totally wipe out the gains from America’s expected reductions in the year 2030, after we have had to spend billions and billions of dollars, lost jobs, closed factories, and suffered much higher energy costs for our businesses and for our homes,” the president added.
Also on June 1, national conservative radio host Mark Levin called attention to the left-wing “de-growth” agenda preferred by Obama to reduce the lifestyles of “overdeveloped” nations like the U.S. But not including Obama’s own lavish life, of course.
European businesses soon complained of the competitive disadvantage they’d suffer with U.S. companies being freed from the Paris agreement.
But virtue-signaling symbolism was important to Trump’s foes. A spokesman for the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops and the Vatican itself wrung their hands over Trump’s decision, while left-wing billionaire Tom Steyer fumed in a tweet that the president committed “a traitorous act of war.”
The dizzyingly left-wing New York Times proclaimed in a page one so-called news sub-headline, “Win for isolationists; condemnation (of Trump) is widespread.”
Once again leftist Democrats who see nothing wrong with slaughtering millions of defenseless preborn babies fulminated over Trump’s alleged lack of morality by exiting the Paris agreement.
Left-wing House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, who worships at the altars of “same-sex marriage” and baby sacrifice, claimed that the Bible itself counsels “worship” of creation, and that Trump was dishonoring God.
Conservative national radio host Laura Ingraham told her listeners on June 2 that it “took an enormous amount of political courage” for Trump to leave the accord. Not that most people opposed him, but dominant media surely did. A Berlin tabloid newspaper even printed its front cover with Trump supposedly uttering an obscenity to the endangered world.
A few days earlier, former GOP Cong. Pete Hoekstra of Michigan told Ingraham on May 30 that people back in his district aren’t concerned with D.C.’s frenzy over Russia, and “I don’t see a lot of people moving away from Trump.”
Ingraham said on June 1 her listeners are “steaming” over Congress’ lack of action on Trump’s agenda, while conservative national talk host Levin said on June 5 that Trump doesn’t even have his own ambassador to Great Britain confirmed yet, and Obama’s holdover is undercutting him.
Dems consider it imperative, Levin added, to regain control of the U.S. House in 2018 so they can draw up articles of impeachment against Trump, even though he’s done nothing wrong. Levin is a qualified supporter of Trump who freely dissents when he thinks it necessary.
Hmmm, how can we truly care about the climate when the media daily churn out so much trash?
A Phoenix Catholic who asked not to be named because of his business contacts told The Wanderer that appeals to “love each other” normally may sound fine, but, right after two terrorist attacks, seem “out of place and naive. Islamic terrorists watching such a display probably laugh when seeing such idiocy. It may even embolden them.
“Yet,” he added, “the media speculates that a stern Twitter message from the U.S. president can inspire more terrorism. They shouldn’t be surprised when people question their credibility.”
