Breitbart.com ^ | October 15, 2015 | Ian Hanchett

Columnist and author of “‘A Disgrace to the Profession‘” Mark Steyn argued, “things that would have been insane in the Bill Clinton era Democrat Party, are now conventional wisdom” and the other Democratic candidates are “ready to join” Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) “on the socialist ledge” on Wednesday’s “Hannity” on the Fox News Channel.

The Clintons have always been on the hard Left ideologically, but that group is very patient, taking about 100 years to get where we are today. Bill has never been made to account for his time in the USSR while a student at Oxford. Who paid for that trip? A po’ boy from Arkansas? The Clintons are willing tools, bought and paid for by the NWO/Globalist/Leftie Oligarchs.

The world is frothing at the mouth at the idea of America going full-tilt socialist. If you check social media outlets like Reddit and Imgur, you’ll see that global youth and American youth are trying their damnedest to merge into some sort of super-socialist global community where what’s mine is yours and what’s yours is the government’s. I don’t think they know what will happen if that comes to pass. It won’t be pretty.

“... things that would have been insane in the Bill Clinton era Democrat Party, are now conventional wisdom” ...

This is incontrovertible. And it should be SHOUTED over and over by every single Republican POTUS candidate and leader in Congress. The DemocRAT party is now very clearly the Communist Party.

You’d have to be well over 30 to have any memory of the fall of the Berlin Wall and the ecstatic celebrations as it came down.

Sanders and Trump are both high IQ/Alpah males...

I agree about the patience, and I believe Bill Clinton and many Democrats were surprised by how much progress has been made moving our country to the left during Obama’s admin.

Wish I could find Bill’s quote from around 2000 about most of the little people of the world being better off with a “benevolent dictator.” This is what his kind believes.

The youngsters in my area whose parents pay for their cars, college, housing, clothes, food . . . yes, they support socialism. They are clueless what it would mean.

The USA, land of milk and honey would make a fine carcass for feasting on for the world’s vultures once socialism is officially achieved. It would sustain dictators and tyrants for generations before only the bones are left to bleach.

” I don’t think they know what will happen if that comes to pass. It won’t be pretty.”

It’s pretty sad that anyone under 30’s concept of history started at breakfast. I see my niece, who is at Amherst falling for this hook, line and sinker. It is almost as if the rats prey on the weak minded and gullible girls who are looking for a social group that will accept them.

It’s a bit easier for the boys, but still the same concept. They are promised loose liberal girls with social issues if they go along with the groupthink.

Steyn concluded by saying of Hillary Clinton, “I think she staunched the flow, but I actually thought — you know, everyone thinks that Bernie’s line about the country’s sick of your damn emails is that he’s climbed in the tank with her, and that basically, that [line] absolved her of guilt. I think he actually did something very clever. He said, you’re tainting my epic heroic revolutionary socialist struggle. And I think that’s why all the romance on the Democrat side is still with Bernie.”

Bill made that speech over in London, and he also talked about how the people of the United States needed to get over the notion of “sovereignty.” George Bush 1 has made similar speeches. You can’t tell the players by the scorecard. Obama was a strategic player in speeding up the NWO Leftist agenda. Total acquiescence would be the only option or be called a RACISSSST!

So true about the charge of racism. My adult kids use Facebook for business purposes only and show me the liberal crap claiming all opposition to Obama is racisssst.
