The real "leftist ideal" was the European super state known as the EU, a more benign form of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics that collapsed in 1989 with the fall of the Berlin Wall.

There is nothing benign about a Super Government of unelected and unaccountable socialist ‘Representatives’. Nor could there be.

Socialist always believe that they know better than the common man what is to be done with the wealth of the individual. Separate the politician from the need to gain reelection and the brakes come off and government is the proverbial runaway train.

Socialism at its core is legalized theft and so must trend toward evil. The elected to power makes a pact with the voter to steal from the productive in order to give to the unproductive. It is a pact with the devil.

But as with any addict more is never enough and the voter addicted to wealth redistribution is always willing to vote for a politician that offers more ill-gotten goodies. So the politician must always be looking to offer more of someone else’s money.

So the socialist utopia is destined to grow to the point where the economy collapses under the weight of many who live off the production of the few.

The EU must come to such an end if it survives the desires of the member states to escape its clutches.

Maybe I am simple minded but the word that comes to
my mind is introspection, a word that can’t be found
in the liberal dictionary. Just think, liberal political
thought and propaganda overwhelmingly dominates all of
the media and academia yet they can’t convince enough
voters that their way is the only way to go. Why is
that?

Liberals often claim that the GOP has moved to the right.
The reality is that while the GOPe has acquiesced to
many left wing goals and have actually been helpful,
true conservatives have continued to resist almost all
whacky liberal ideas and plans. By definition their
job is to come up with these whacky ideas and the
job of conservatives is to slow or stop them.

This recent election has again demonstrated that
although the liberals control the media they still
cannot control voters. I would submit that if the media
were truly balanced and fair the liberal vote would
be miniscule almost throughout the land. The media
and leadership of the left lack the introspection ability
to comprehend that the people do not want to go as far
to the left as the left wants to take them.
If they did and if they could slow their
roll they just might become dangerous again.

I have not seen any of the institutions of the left recede or fall back. A temper tantrum surely but only for intimidation effect and they got away with it. The left can do anything. If you defend yourself against them. You will be put in jail. Point made. Any belief to the contrary is fantasy. I hope we send the left packing but the last time we had a chance to do so, the Gang of Fourteen sabotaged the effort. You cannot believe the depth of the betrayal. The leader of the gang just got re-elected from Az. Hoping but not holding my breath.
