EXPOSED by Newt Gingrich: the corrupt, ruthless radical Left's plan to transform America into a weak secular-socialist state -- and how we can stop this plan now

To Save America: Stopping Obama's Secular-Socialist Machine

by Newt Gingrich

"America as we know it," says Newt Gingrich, "is now facing a mortal threat." The Left, he explains, is ignoring the lessons of history and moving further into ideological extremism -- reacting to their meager popular support by seeking to impose a corrupt, Chicago-style political machine on the entire country. The leftwing Democrats who currently control the White House, the House of Representatives, the Senate, and many state capitals are committed to a secular-socialist ideology that is alien to America's history and traditions.

 

"This danger to America," Gingrich says, "is greater than anything I dreamed possible after we won the Cold War, and the Soviet Union disappeared in December 1991. We now face a dire threat to America here at home. We stand at a crossroads: either we will save our country or we will lose it.” That's why he wrote To Save America: Stopping Obama's Secular-Socialist Machine.

 

The Left, Gingrich explains, has expanded their power through their control of academia, the elite news media, union leaders, trial lawyers, the bureaucracy, the courts, and lobbyists at the state and federal levels. They share a vision of a secular, socialist America run for the interests of the members of the political machine that keeps them in power. It will be an America where government dominates the people rather than represents them. In short, they want to use government power to change who we are and how we think. And Barack Obama is working hard to impose that vision upon America right now.

 

Gingrich explains why "secular-socialist machine" is the only way to describe the Left; exposes the lies that Leftists have told America; explores the secular-socialist machine's health bill disaster and involvement in ACORN's vote fraud; and even details why Big Business and the secular-socialist machine are not enemies, but are actually natural allies. He exposes the Left's immense corruption as well, including the corruption of climate science and corruption at the United Nations.

 

But that is not all: Gingrich offers a plan to defeat the secular-socialist regime and herald a new era of America prosperity in which small businesses flourish, the entitlement state is dismantled, better healthcare is available at a lower cost (without healthcare fraud), religious liberty is protected, and the education crisis is solved. It's a bold vision for a bold people -- and the need for it is urgent. "The secular-socialist machine," Gingrich argues persuasively, "represents as great a threat to America as Nazi Germany or the Soviet Union once did." That's why saving America is the fundamental challenge of our time -- and To Save America essential reading for anyone who loves America.

 

 Gingrich sounds the alarm:

 

How the America in which we grew up is vastly different from the America the secular-socialist Left wants to create

 

Barack Obama: how everything we cherish about America is something he thinks is not so special, not so very different from any other country

 

How, if the Left stays in power, it will transform America into a radically different nation -- a union- dominated, bureaucratically controlled, high-tax, low- growth country in which powerful politicians impose their will on an exhausted, submissive citizenry

 

Why we must repeal the 2010 big-government healthcare "reform" -- passed on a narrow partisan basis with extraordinary corruption and bribery -- and start over in the right direction with the right policies

 

How the U.S. government traditionally regarded the protection of American lives as its top priority: our primary concern with captured terrorists (or pirates, their old equivalent) was interrogating them and using that information to stop further attacks – but now the secular socialists want to give our enemies the same constitutional protections we afford our own citizens, effectively placing the rights of terrorists ahead of the lives of Americans

 

The extremist environmental movement: how it asserts that we will soon face global warming-induced environmental catastrophes that can only be avoided by forcing Western capitalist nations, especially America, to adopt devastating energy taxes, ruinous new environmental regulations, and a massive wealth transfer to developing countries (a mantra that has become so popular both among the American Left and abroad that even Osama bin Laden in a recent recording thought he could win converts by blaming the West for global warming) -- but how this narrative fails to recognize that capitalist democracies are among the most environmentally conscious nations in the world

 

The Left's challenge to American exceptionalism -- the idea that America has a special mission to protect and spread freedom: for the secular-socialist Left, however, America is an exploitive, imperialist aggressor, and that the U.S. military is an evil tool of corporate interests

 

The secular-socialist machine's values: how they differ from traditional American values: while Americans have always respected hard work, entrepreneurship, innovation, and merit-based upward mobility, the Leftist machine rewards its members, punishes "overachievers," kills jobs by over-taxing small businesses, and even exploits your death to tax the savings you hope to pass on to your children and grandchildren

 

Why the UN tolerates corruption: it's viewed as another way to transfer wealth from developed to developing countries

 

Healthcare: innovative, practical reforms to enable Americans to build a system that is available, affordable, and appropriate for every citizen

 

God in America: how, while traditional America was based on a profound belief that "we are endowed by our Creator with certain unalienable rights," secular socialists are so opposed to God in public life that they can't tolerate school prayer or even allow a cross to stand in the middle of the Mojave Desert
