I'm having a great time! In fact, I hope they keep it up and just become even more outrageous.

Those true colors are coming through and by the time this is over, they will have alienated just about everyone!

instead they spanked their little behinds right there in front of the entire world.

These days you may just leave the store in hand-cuffs for doing that. I agree with your point though; the elite are the very embodiment of spoiled children.

Let's make it a Texas troika. Their macchinations are getting hiliarious. They think they can pretend faith and morality. They are empty vessels, being blown around by any wind that blows. They really think that will do. Redefine morality, then go out and reclaim what they think they have a birthright to have. New York, Boston, L.A., and the Washington elite have moved from clueless to despondency to delusional. I do not think I am exaggerating.

What the left is really saying now is "VOTE FOR US YOU FREAKING JESUS FREAK DUMBASSES BECAUSE IT IS OUR RIGHT TO RULE OVER YOU AND IF YOU DON'T VOTE FOR US WE WILL REVOLT!!!"

Personally, this is all amusing until they truly do start to become violent (something I truly worry about). When that happens, it will truly be time to bring the troops home and turn them on their true enemies.

Noam Chomsky:

"But the doctrinal meaning of democracy is different -- it refers to a system in which decisions are made by sectors of the business community and related elites. The public are to be only "spectators of action," not "participants," as leading democratic theorists (in this case, Walter Lippmann) have explained. They are permitted to ratify the decisions of their betters and to lend their support to one or another of them, but not to interfere with matters -- like public policy -- that are none of their business."

The idea of the "elites" again. Do you like the word "betters" in there? I heard that my entire childhood being raised by one of the "betters." Believe me, they really do think they are.

And yeah, they will get violent but it won't go very far. This is not 1967. The public mood is very different.

I disagree. Children have numerous redeeming qualities, including the ability to stop their temper tantrum. When liberal "elites" start whining, they don't stop for years. They have no redeeming qualities, aren't innocent, and simply have no capacity for development. They suck.

Excellent statement. You have certainly captured one of the key differentiators behind the activists on the Left and those in the Republican Party. Thanks.

Next they'll refuse to eat their vegetables, then they'll all hold their breath and really scare us.

Exactly. Their reaction to losing clearly shows they were not used to hearing "no" while growing up or ever put in positions where they would have to learn to accept life's losses. "Screw this. I'm leaving!" "It's not fair! It was rigged!" "You're a big poopie head!" It's obvious these more hysterical liberals were the types who threw tantrums to get what they wanted as children, and got it. Now they can't understand not getting something simply because they really, really want it.

That's pretty much the way I see it too. The media is doing irreparable damage to them too, by printing up their tantrums so everyone can clearly see what they are.

Everyone is looking at this with their mouths agape, literally stunned by their venom.
