Welcome back everybody! Leftist crazy never sleeps and neither do we!

03/01 - Why Did It Take Two Weeks To Discover Parkland Students’ Astroturfing?

This post isn't as inflammatory as its title suggests, but an interesting look at how the sausage gets made. It's also something our side needs to step up and do more of, and yes that includes your faithful blogger.

3/1 - Philadelphia Soda Tax Fizzles, Brings in $13 Million Less Than Expected

Radical Left policy checklist:

1) Ideas founded in economic illiteracy? Check! 2) Policy will disproportionately hurt the poor? Check! 3) Ultimately fails? Check and check!

3/1 - Facebook Threatens Satire Site Babylon Bee over CNN Story That Snopes Rated 'False'

Nothing screams panic like when The Radical Left needs to do their always "professional" job of fact checking satire sites.

3/3 - White Customers Asked To Pay More At New Orleans Restaurant

This week's edition of "Your best bigotry comes from The Radical Left"

3/3 - POLITICO: Those Damned Republicans Are “Seizing on” the Issue of the Coward County Sheriff

And there’s nothing Big Media hates these days more than a story that distracts attention from how (they believe) guns and guns alone are solely responsible for the Florida school shooting.

3/3 - Venezuela has achieved economic equality

Everybody is a millionaire! And as I like to point out, this is our latest reminder that our country was one rigged Democratic Primary away from half of the country voting to turn America into Venezuela - Part I

3/3 - Sweden: Woman faces two years in prison for making jokes about Islam

...And American Leftists weep with envy

3/3 - Italy fed up with migrant invasion

Between this and the next story I like to think that there may still be hope for Europe

3/4 - Merkel Acknowledges Germany ‘No-Go Areas’; Longtime U.S. Media Deniers Hardest Hit

Better late than never that our moral and intellectual superiors start deciding that we can handle the truth

3/5 - Dreamers Turn on Dems, Block Entrance to DNC: 'Too Many Years, Too Many Lies!'

Paging Doctor Frankenstein!

3/5 - Hollywood Contemplates Looking in the Mirror, Then Turns Away

Hollywood’s brightest stars came together as one and told us they had stood up to something bad — but never quite defined — and assured us that everything was different now. It was a powerful night for vague euphemisms.

Elsewhere, the founder of #MeToo talked about her desire to work with gun-control activists, demonstrating that the movement is quickly mutating from a broad-based coalition in support of an unassailable cause — stop harassment and assault — into garden-variety progressive leftism.

I wish they had just let Rose McGowan come out and yell at everyone for ten minutes.

I like that title! It’s coming so Fast and Furious from the Left, now, that the title is perfect.

The Destroy America First media is shoveling the hatred out there, as hard and constantly as they can.

Debbie Wassermann Schultz aiding in the lobbying in Tallahassee, a teacher’s union organizing the buses that got the kids there, Michael Bloomberg’s groups and the Women’s March working on the upcoming March For Our Lives, MoveOn.org doing social media promotion and (potentially) march logistics, and training for student activists provided by federally funded Planned Parenthood.

I remember a few short years ago when Freepers were taken in by the left wing Communist 'community organizing' bit of AstroTurfing. We've come a long way - now the only people who 'believe' liberal BS 'protest' are members of the press (intentionally blind) and Republican lawmakers who still think the 'letters from constituents' are real... not written in Democrat War rooms and sent to shills to 'rewrite' and add their names.
