After years of puzzlement and curiosity observing modern day Democrats, I think I have finally figured them out.
I'm constantly amazed that modern Democrats have evolved beyond living in caves. I mean what other animal on this planet can disregard all common sense and logic and survive? Scientists have recently discovered that even giant sea slugs that do not possess a brain as such can learn from past experiences. That puts them a leg up over the current crop of liberals in this country. I used to subscribe to the adage that liberalism was a mental disorder, but even Rainman would have a hard time buying into the standard mantra of the present day Democratic Party. In order to believe that Democrats have the answer today, you would have to believe:
That you can grow the entitlement class beyond the taxpayer class and never hit critical mass where there is no money left.
That using the military to oust a murderous thug dictator in 2003 was criminal, and using the military to oust a murderous thug dictator in 2011 was noble.
That the best way to grow the wealth of the private sector is to take all the money out of it.
That the best way to make us energy independent is to block any effort to produce more petrocarbons in this country.
That the best way to create jobs is to increase taxes and regulations on the job creators.
That the best way to stop arms from this country from getting into the hands of the drug cartels in Mexico is to provide arms to the drug cartels in Mexico.
That all the ills of the economy are due to the fat cat banks and other corporations, and the best way to deal with that is to provide billions...

Ditto on the books.
I suggest more of Sowell’s works, though.
Start with “Basic Economics”, “Applied Economics”, then “Conflict of Visions”, THEN “Vision of the Annointed”, followed by “Intellectuals” for the icing on the cake.
You're right - something about their desire to control and dominate others to the point of slavery... is evil.
Big government is attractive to those who think that THEY (or those in harmony with them) will be in control of it.
I do too, with one variation. We did not fight WW2 by going after the particular Japanese sailors who attacked Pearl Harbor, and the admiral who commanded them. We went after the people who SENT that fleet after us.
Yes, we got bin Ladin. Big deal. Who SENT bin Ladin? Who gave him shelter (Pakistan)? Who gave him financing and support (wealthy Muslims in Saudi Arabia and elsewhere). We got bin Ladin, but it was a hollow victory because, for political reasons, we ignored the people BEHIND bin Ladin.
So what was Libya all about?
They want to be the empowered killers. If you visit their web sites, you will see, they dont hesitate to darkly warn of the need to kill a lot of refusniks in the New Age.Well, you tickled my memory and sent me off in search of something I remembered from a while back. These people are leftists and their kind, if they have power, will exterminate anyone who gets in their way.
I asked, "well what is going to happen to those people we can't reeducate, that are diehard capitalists?" and the reply was that they'd have to be eliminated. And when I pursued this further, they estimated they would have to eliminate 25 million people in these reeducation centers. And when I say "eliminate," I mean "kill." Twenty-five million people. I want you to imagine sitting in a room with 25 people, most of which have graduate degrees, from Columbia and other well-known educational centers, and hear them figuring out the logistics for the elimination of 25 million people. And they were dead serious. - Larry Grathwohl, former member of the Weather Underground (FBI infiltrator)
One of any number of personal times of being on the “we want you dead” end of a liberal is when respectfully standing for life at an abortion “clinic” the daughter of the abortionist posted signs on the tree and fence that said “Where are the lions when you need them”.
“...at an abortion clinic the daughter of the abortionist posted signs on the tree and fence that said Where are the lions when you need them.
Elitists (limo-fascists) are meeting in Davos this week to discuss the end of Western “capitalism” and to decide what comes next. China has a better model, they beleive since we are broke and China is not. I guess they have shaken down the US Treasury and the American people for all we are worth so now it is time to “bring change” and make us into Chinese slaves. They will bring in the lions because Christian Americans won’t tolerate forced abortion for population control. Hold onto your hat!
Here is one link with a formal proposal of death. The “smart” watermelons are very serious about reducing their earth’s population and have many ideas for their dirty work.
John Holdren, Obama White House Czar
“ Some conservative media outlets have called attention to a book Holdren co-authored in 1977 titled Ecoscience: Population, Resources, and Environment. The book reportedly includes this statement: “population-control laws, even including laws requiring compulsory abortion, could be sustained under the existing Constitution.” Holdrens office says he “does not now and never has been an advocate of compulsory abortions or other repressive measures to limit fertility.”

I see the comments from leftists about killing their enemies (global warming deniers, pro lifers, bankers and wall street workers, Whites, Jews, “fundalmentalists”, conservatives, tea party “terrorists”, Republicans, Bush, Cheney, Palin and her children, police officers, military people, Jews, etc.) all the time when I follow them around the internet to study them. They exist in one dead end of Internet kookville and kind of overlap with the Paul “libertarians” and the NOI/Muslim crowd.
Homeland inSecurity has named the left’s social and political enemies domestic terrorists. Congress just gave Obama the power to kill and imprison domestic terrorists at will.
Another coven of left wingers in Internet kookville wishing for the dealth of their thought enemies are some New Agers. They think the alien will come and kill anyone who is not of a high consciencousness like they are. They are enviornmentalist of the mother earth worshiping variety, animal rights kooks, redistribute the wealthers... They think people who disagree with them are unevolved, dangerous animals. (I don’t save links to their comments. They are pretty disgusting.)
Some of the gay lefties are bloody as heck. They wanna kill Christians and anyone who is not celebrating and wanting to socially engineer life around their sex thing. Some express the desire to harm (rape and murder) the children of Christians. I know I guy who worked against them in public school “progress”, who got such threats against his children on his home phone recorder.
There are real witches, too, who are blood thirsty. Some of them express the desire for God, Jesus and all their beleivers be murdered. For some atheists, all people are economic units, perfectly disposable when they are not economicially viable/useful to “society.” Obama has this philosphy and incorporated it into his health care bill.
