If freedom relies on America and the forces of individualism and free markets, how could one be bipartisan to a Socialist ideology in which government has a bigger part to play in people’s lives? Today’s politicians lack the backbone to stand on principle and fight these pernicious trends towards Socialism, Marxism, and Progressivism.

Only partisanship itself, in its most abrasive and unforgiving form, could defend against a juggernaut of evil and self-destructive forces such as this cradle-to-grave Progressivism. We must be partisan when facing leftist ideology. Bipartisanship simply does not apply in this situation and reeks of societal suicidal tendencies.

What is needed here is a fight. A battle waged on an ideological scale equivalent to the Civil War. Not a human bloodshed type of war, but a war of ideas and principles fought to the death for the survival of our union. If America is not a place but rather an idea, then it is our survival as a free nation that we are facing. This struggle is no less important than the shooting Civil War.

It’s one thing to be bipartisan and fight out varying ideas in a capitalist society and meet somewhere in the middle of an ocean of compromise. It’s another matter altogether to be bipartisan on Progressive ideas and policies. It is here that bipartisanship becomes wrongheaded. The go along to get-a-along mindset becomes destructive and brings us down the road to perdition.

Over and over again each day, all we hear is the word bipartisan like it has some magical meaning. Whatever the origin of that term was, it’s been bastardized and has morphed into some idea of its own. Depending on the person using that term, the meaning of this word has a fluid nature to it, tailored to fit the individual who is using it. For Democrats, it means that enough Republicans have caved in and granted the Left their Progressive agenda. Even today Democrats and Republicans have different thoughts on what bipartisan means.

I’d like to put forth the concept that bipartisanship is wrongheaded eating away at the pragmatic direction our government should be taking. That concept itself is inherently destructive to the future of America in the Twenty-First Century in its current form. There should be no capitulation to Marxist ideas from the Democrat Party. We should not barter with Socialists. There shall be no agreement whatsoever with the America First Movement and the Progressive Democrat’s version of Dante’s Inferno. We will not follow you into Hell.
