Former Chair of the DNC, Howard Dean, has just accused the GOP of "bashing" Muslims, women, gays, immigrants and Latinos. What he forgot to mention is that the Democratic Party bashes the most basic values of The United States of America: pride in country, family and religion. You can throw in bashing of a  core value of Western civilization to boot: freedom of speech.

Obama started his presidency on an apology tour. Big, bad America has bulldozed, exploited and humiliated peoples and countries around the world. The rhetoric is different but the drivel is right out of Reverend Wright's rants G-D-ing America. Moreover, his administration is chipping away at pride in citizenship by giving illegal aliens all the rights of the failed Dream Act by various Obama agency directives. The net result is that illegals have nearly all the rights of citizenship except the right to vote -- and they are working on that.

His administration continues its assault on the traditional family by extolling the single parent family and gay-parenting.

Obama has shown disdain for the values of the Catholic church and sneered at "bitter," "frustrated" Christians ("And it's not surprising then that they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.")

The Obama administration has ordered all intelligence agencies to expunge reference to Islamism, radical Islam, Jihad and all other terminology which might suggest the Islam is religion prone to terrorism. AG Holder has also brought suits against free speech. His DOJ has just lost a suit trying to muzzle a peaceful pro-life demonstrator.

Moreover, what Mr. Dean calls "bashing" is really the refusal to elevate gay marriage over traditional marriage, refusal to elevate Islam over Christianity, refusal to grant illegals all the rights of citizenship and refusal to elevate pro-choice over pro-life.

Is it any wonder there is a growing drug problem among Americas teenagers. They are being taught to be ashamed of Country, family and religion -- ashamed of being American.
