Fighting the left's obsession with power

Fighting the left's obsession with power: Leftists is more adroit at manipulation; they’ve been doing it a lot longer.  After all, their political philosophy is one of destruction and control.  Just look at socialism or communism, whose principle characteristic is control.  That said, one can’t distinguish the good guys today by simple political affiliation.  There are far too many Rs who also seek power above all.

Any person who places power (control) above principle is going to fall into the same pit of evil.

The only protection against falling into this trap of worldly power is a higher principle, an ethos, something greater than us.
