Well, the great revival of New York City was nice while it lasted. Once this
tool is in office you can expect a return to the days of David Dinkins.
Considering the countries favored by Democratic mayoral nominee Bill De
Blasio, the days of Dinkins might be preferable.
Three leftist countries that drew Bill de Blasio’s interest over the
past 25 years rank high for repression on the annual list compiled by
Freedom House, a human-rights watchdog group.
The organization uses a point scale of 1 to 7 for political rights and
civil liberties, with the higher number representing the most oppressive.
Cuba gets a 7 for political rights and a 6 for civil liberties.
Zimbabwe lands a grade of 6 on both issues.
And de Blasio’s beloved Nicaragua earns 5 points for political rights
and 4 for civil liberties.
Freedom House rates that country as “partly free.”
Considering the loss of freedoms under the Obama regime, the United States
is rapidly approaching Zimbabwe.
De Blasio, the city public advocate who is the Democratic nominee for
mayor, is facing mounting criticism for his full-throated support of
Nicaragua’s Sandinista government, which cracked down on dissenters and had
close ties to communists.
De Blasio has also drawn fire for honeymooning in Cuba after his 1994
marriage to Chirlane McCray — a trip that violated a US travel ban.
The mayor-poll front-runner has also been criticized for joining
legislators who welcome reviled Zimbabwe despot Robert Mugabe to City Hall
in 2002 when de Blasio served on the City Council.
De Blasio has since said the Mugabe appearance was a “mistake.”
It’s only a “mistake” because he’s no being criticized for it. Anyone
dumb enough to host a Communist racist like Mugabe should be barred from
ever running for office. It’s quite likely New Yorkers are oblivious to
what a hardline, leftwing extremist De Blasio, so they’ll suffer for their
ignorance. The business community should also take a long look at this guy
and plan accordingly. Anyone who likes Robert Mugabe will not be a friend to
capitalism. |
