David Mamet’s swan dive into wingnuttery
Will you tell your children that a liberal government will increasingly marginalize, dismiss and weaken the support for and the safety of the Jewish state?
Will you tell them that, in a state-run economy, hard work may still be applauded, but that it will no longer be rewarded?
Will you explain that whatever their personal beliefs, tax-funded institutions will require them to imbibe and repeat the slogans of the left, and that, should they differ, they cannot have a career in education, medicine or television unless they keep their mouths shut?
=====
Most importantly, will you teach them never to question the pronouncements of those in power, for to do so is to risk ostracism?
Are you prepared to sit your children down and talk them through your vote on the future you are choosing for them?
Please remember that we have the secret ballot and, should you, on reflection, vote in secret for a candidate you would not endorse in public, you will not be alone.
“Dismiss and weaken the support for and the safety of the Jewish state?”
“State run economy???”
“Tax-funded institutions will require them to imbibe and repeat the slogans of the left?”
I don’t know…maybe it was Glenn Beck who actually wrote Glengarry Glen Ross…
