Harvester of Sorrow

Is it any wonder the axis of evil in American politics - feminism, socialism and the Democrat Party - have been promoting family destroying, pro-divorce policies and welfare subsidies for single mothers for so long? They know that for every single mother without a husband and provider for her children, she will view the government as the surrogate solution. Taking a step back and looking objectively at the big picture, can one really find it impossible to consider that the socialist-promoting Democrats have purposely promoted the agenda that either destroys current, two-parent families or prevents the two parent family from forming in the first place? The more single mothers, the more Democrat, socialist policy voters!

Jim Wooten of the Atlantic Journal Constitution makes the point in his article, Single women could usher in big government:

Two trends bedevil America. One is taxes. The second, more important, is marriage.

Those who pay no taxes have no check on their appetite for services. If somebody else is paying, nothing’s unaffordable.

Is this not EXACTLY what we see with the rise of single mother headed households? Even the pro-Democrat, liberal research and think tank groups basically savor at the chance for electoral victory by getting the "gold mine" of the single mom vote!

The liberal polling firm Greenberg Quinlan Rosner Research singled out unmarried women and their potential impact on future elections. What it found should chill the spines of those who wish to reverse, or even slow, the growth of government — not so much because of its cost, but because Big Government steals the initiative and enterprise and independence of its wards.

“Because of the often stark economic reality of a single-income family, they [unmarried women] support an active government that will give all Americans a chance to get ahead, not just the affluent,” the organization reported.

As the nation discovered decades ago with welfare policies that pushed men out of the lives of poor women, except for procreation, women who previously found security in marriage turned instead to government. As Greenberg Quinlan Rosner find, unmarried women are a rich vein to be mined by Democrats.

A "rich vein" is an inaccurate metaphor as far as I'm concerned. A gold miner searches for "rich veins" and happens to stumble on it after much work.

I would say a better metaphor would be the liberal Democrat Socialists are farmers, rather than miners. They created the ever-increasing crops of single mothers and the growing population of unmarried females, full-well knowing that unmarried women and single mothers by-and-large support big government, socialist policies and politicians!

In truth, the liberal Democrats are counting on reaping the very harvest they themselves have sown.

As the liberal polling firm notes:

“Marital status is playing an increasingly defining role in elections. For the 2006 congressional elections, the ‘marriage gap’ was 32 points, far bigger than the gender gap, which was just 9 points. Among women, the marriage gap was an even bigger 36 points … unmarried women tend to vote like other unmarried women, regardless of other powerful demographic variables such as age, income and education.”

“Unmarried women are easily the largest segment of the Democratic base — bigger than Hispanics and African Americans combined.” And the second most loyal, second only to blacks. They favor Democrats over Republicans by a 70-24 margin, and Hillary Clinton over Rudy Giuliani by 66-30.

“From 1960 to 2006, the percentage of the voting age population that was unmarried grew from 27 to 45 percent … If this trend continues, the unmarried will be a majority of the population within 15 years.”

"Their top economic concern is health care. “This group strongly supports fundamental reform to provide universal coverage that can never be taken away.”

“In total, there are over 53 million unmarried women of voting age, a number that dwarfs the percentage of seniors, people of color and even union members.” Of those who voted in 2006, two-thirds chose Democrats. Some 20 million, however, did not vote. That’s 41 percent of the unmarrieds. Among the married, it was 29 percent. But “2008 could be very different if progressives see the opportunity before them.” Unmarried women “emerge as the largest contributor to the Democratic vote in 2008.”

The liberal socialists that have the nerve to call themselves "progressive" have carefully cultivated a crop of single mother households for their own harvest of electoral votes, to the detriment of society.

As my favorite Metallica song goes...



I never really thought about it before (I've been a die-hard Metallica fan since 1986...my first album I ever bought was Master of Puppets), but the lyrics to Harvester of Sorrow are quite fitting in describing the socialist-feminist-liberal triumvirate and the damage they have done to families and society...

My life suffocates
Planting seeds of hate
I've loved, turned to hate
Trapped far beyond my fate

I give
You take
This life that I forsake
Been cheated of my youth
You turned this lie to truth

Anger
Misery
You'll suffer unto me

Harvester of sorrow
Language of the mad
Harvester of sorrow

Pure black looking clear
My work is done soon here
Try getting back to me
Get back which used to be

Drink up
Shoot in
Let the beatings begin
Distributor of pain
Your loss becomes my gain

Anger
Misery
Youll suffer unto me

Harvester of sorrow
Language of the mad
Harvester of sorrow

All have said their prayers
Invade their nightmares
See into my eyes
Youll find where murder lies

Infanticide

Harvester of sorrow
Language of the mad
Harvester of sorrow
Language of the mad
Harvester of sorrow

The Feminist, Socialist Democrats...they all speak the language of the mad while they prepare to reap the harvest of sorrow they have sown.
