Japan Caught Up In Winds Of 'Change'

31Aug09
Sunday night's election results showed the ultra left Democratic Party of Japan (DPJ) leading the more moderate Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) by wide margins.

Led by career politician Yukio Hatoyama, the DPJ is a group of majority party renegades, social democrats, and socialists originally from Japan's Social Democratic Party, marching under one banner.

Citing the LDP's failure to improve the life of the average Japanese citizen, the DPJ's platform offered little else of substance, instead invoking the now all too familiar mantra of "Change". The Democratic Party of Japan is political and stylistic protégé to the left wing of the American Democratic party to the point that DPJ supporters chanted "Obama" at rallies.

This is a chilling reminder of the scale of the threat to liberty. That the style over substance collectivist forces of the world, are trying to effect a quiet but global socialist revolution.

This isn't just about politics, or ideology anymore. It isn't just about government health care or cap and trade. The world over a shift is happening from the individual toward the collective, that encompasses all hemispheres, all continents.

Since its founding, The United States of America have been a champion of liberty and the rights of the individual. If don't we win the fight to take back our country from the socialist agenda, we leave freedom no home, we condemn the world to the same servitude.
