Los Angeles County Lincoln Club: The New Judenrat

I just got done taking a supposedly “pro-gun” Republican to task for supporting Jim Hahn for Mayor of Los Angeles.

Enter Linda Boyd, Chairman of the Los Angeles County Republican Party, who says in an email:

“While the Republican Party of Los Angeles County is taking no official position on this race, we as leaders are very concerned about the prospect of militant left-winger Antonio Villaraigosa becoming Mayor of Los Angeles.

“This newsletter from the Los Angeles County Lincoln Clubs provides some information on the race.”

The newsletter states in part:

“In an unprecedented and historic action, the Los Angeles County Lincoln Clubs Board of Governors endorsed Democrat Los Angeles Mayor James Hahn on April 5, 2005 for reelection. The Lincoln Clubs had never previously endorsed a Democrat in their twenty-six year history.”

What, they want us to believe Hahn isn’t a “militant left-winger”? And Linda Boyd thinks denying her specific endorsement, while passing along that of a group she has close ties to, gives her plausible deniability?

As long as we continue to accept evil-based choice making, we will continue to be manipulated into surrender. Linda Boyd and the Democrat wing of the Republican party can go lead themselves. If they truly represent the leadership of the Republican party, they deserve their pathetic minority status in LA. That it’s courtesy of their “leaders’” lack of fundamental line-in-the-sand principles escapes them, I’m sure.

Hahn is an anti-gun socialist. Yeah, I know Villaraigosa is, too. But it makes no difference as far as I’m concerned. The proper response to a tyrant is defiance. We’ll never see that point reached by Linda Boyd and the cowardly house slaves of the Lincoln Club. We have NO choice in this election—Tyrant A or Tyrant B. Broken arm or broken leg. Good Lord, how could any moral person impose either one of these criminals on another human being?

Perhaps the Lincoln Club ought to change their “Board of Governors” banner header to read “Judenrat”—willing to appease at any cost, instead of leading their people in resistance.

Point to one instance in history where people have gained their freedom through base compromise and abandonment of principles. Follow this crop of capitulating losers at your peril.
