As a magnet for recent Latin
immigrants, New Jersey has seen rapid growth in minority voters. Not
surprisingly, most of these new voters are registered Democrats (if they are
registered at all) as they came through the INS' "Immigrants for
Democrats" program to earn their citizenship. You know, that's the program
where they are not so subtly exposed to a drumming in of "democracy"
in learning about our country. Naturally, these folks, many of whom cannot speak
English, will tend to lean toward the Democrat Party as the party that
supposedly represents Democracy. But, of course, we all know that's really
today's biggest joke on the uninformed. It is no surprise then that Democrats in
New Jersey can gain and hold power despite a long history of corruption and
self-serving political leaders. In trying to understand the perplexing voter
trends in New Jersey, you must keep this background in mind.
New Jersey mirrors the US in the nature
of its politically divided populace. Clustered into high-density urban sprawl
around New York City and Philadelphia (with a small outpost around Atlantic
City) Democrats maintain a strong voter block of uninformed immigrants (whose
views are often conservative) and mind-numbed pseudo-intellectual liberals.
Contrast that with the rest of suburban and rural New Jersey where conservative
Republicans dominate the landscape. This highly divided voter population
has led to the same corruption and disgraceful behavior in New Jersey that has
been the norm for the national Democrat Party in recent years. Today's national
Democrat Party is led by one who has a lifelong history of partisan left-wing
activity, questionable military service (which seems more a self-serving stint
as each day unfolds new truths about the nature of Kerry's military stint), and
a gigolo-like tendency to live off the fruits of his wives' earnings. So when our (I am a long-time resident
of New Jersey) current governor, James McGreevey, announced he's had a gay
affair and will be stepping down as governor, New Jerseyans will be excused for
suspecting far more is afoot than an indiscretion. Actually, this revelation comes as no
surprise to readers of New Jersey's most prolific mouthpiece for the Democrat
National Committee, The Star Ledger. For some time now, The Star Ledger's
heavily Democrat bias has, nevertheless, not prevented it from publishing
uncomplimentary material about McGreevey. This should have provided ample
warning that very troubling information was known to the state's liberal
journalists and that it was only a matter of time before the public would become
aware of the nature of McGreevey's problems. Get the Updated Popup Blocker! free download! Which brings us to the most disgraceful
part of McGreevey's announcement. Timing. In today's world, there is no shock to
an announcement by a twice-married governor with three children that he has had
homosexual tendencies since his youth and has recently engaged in at least one
gay affair. But even those acquainted with the "in your face" tactics
of New Jersey's Democrat Party were taken aback by the audacity of McGreevey's
decision to postpone his resignation until after the current election cycle. When the disgraced former Senator
Toricelli was up for re-election, his plunging poll numbers amid reports of
widespread corruption prompted his withdrawal (under threat of massive exposure
by his own party) from his re-election race within weeks of the election.
According to New Jersey law, his name could not be replaced on the ballot at
that late a date -- he would have to stand for re-election and, if elected, he
could then resign. But, where the New Jersey liberal Supreme Court justices are
concerned, what's the law but a mere inconvenience that can be ignored if a
partisan cause can be served? So, as good little corrupt liberal
justices do, the New Jersey Supreme Court ruled that it was just fine for the
state Democrats within a few weeks of the election to replace Toricelli with the
now 80-year-old senile dinosaur of New Jersey politicians, Frank Lautenberg
(more affectionately known in New Jersey as Frank Lousenberg). Now along comes McGreevey and admits to
his activities which he states make him unfit for his office (not the gay part,
but the corruption part which has yet to fully surface), yet he refuses to step
down until after the general election nearly three months in the future! Adv:
What
does the government know about you? There is absolutely nothing that would
prevent New Jersey's political parties from selecting candidates who could
campaign for election in November. Good grief, the Republican Party will not
even have a candidate for President until their convention at the end of this
month! While their choice is a foregone conclusion, historically that has not
always been the case. McGreevey's resignation delay is a
completely partisan scheme designed to prevent a popular Republican, Bret
Schundler, from winning the governorship with such a strong campaign that it
would adversely affect Kerry's chances for winning in New Jersey. Corrupt liberal Democrat politics rule New Jersey. Will decent, honorable people in New Jersey ever wake up and turn out the vote to throw this cabal out? If past experience is any guide, don't hold your breath; just hold your nose.
