Whatta laff.

So the tender, earnest Civil Rights pimps of the 60s get a little glimpse of the real outcome of their “Equality for All” meme: the beneficiaries say Screw Dat Crap, Give Us Everything.

But...But...you’re supposed to be noble and well meaning, just Victims looking for Equal Treatment!

Whatchoo talkin’ ‘bout, Cracker? We’re lookin’ for the cash, man. Not worried about you and your people. Y’all are finished, it’s our day now!

Oh How I wish I had the video from Netroots from this weekend.

The NBC Affiliate out of Grand Rapids was running full steam about the Trump/McLoser dust up but not one word about O’Malley and Sanders getting booed off the stage.

Here is how I read this.
The Uber-Left now controls the Democrat Party.
They have now become dangerous to anyone who doesn’t support their beliefs.
Strange things happen when people this crazy become powerful.
The big question I ask is where they are getting the $$$ to do this?

Yes, Quigley’s analysis rings true today.

And yet, when push comes to shove, they’ll rally around the last Democrat standing, because they know they’ll at least get a piece of the action.

CNN reporter Chris Moody noted that when Sanders brought up Obamacare, people shouted, "We can't afford that!"

Cool! They are starting to get it!

The Catholic church created many demonologies over the years, to describe how Satan and the other fallen angels tried to recreate the appearance of Heaven in Hell.

However, such were the demon’s vanity and arrogance that Hell soon had an incredibly top-heavy government. Not only did demons think of themselves as royalty and military generals, but they also had a parliament, and a gigantic bureaucracy, to the point where Hell resembled Washington, D.C.

In looking at this Netroots assembly, it appears that even the low level demonic rank and file are just as arrogant, vain and contentious as their leaders.

No big surprise.

The feminists included a “safe space” policy in the program that included a reminder not to rape other attendees.

That was helpful. They might have forgotten without the reminder. I sometimes forget where I put my keys.

lolz :)

When you try to be everyone’s best friend, purely for votes, you end up with:

Black men
Radical Feminists
Straight white men
Gays/Transgenders
Muslims
Atheists
Hispanics

When they (finally) look around they see diversity alright, including everything they can’t support...then the hilarity ensues!!!!!!!!!!! Whomever develops strategy for the Democrat’s didn’t think this through very far. While they perceive conservatives to be ever more “radical” they miss the reality that we’re not, it’s just them moving further left. Each of these left-wing groups have now become so extreme they can no longer “coexist” - oh the irony!!!

Conservatives should leverage this incompatible contradiction that is the Democrat Party.

Let the lefties kill each other in their fight for idealogical purity. It would be less numbers for us to fight. What we are seeing is no different from what went on in China in the sixties. Struggle sessions, shouting down, and eventually they will turn on each other with violence. Pass the popcorn.

The money and influence come from many places:

Union dues.
Welfare.
Infiltrating government institutions and using them against their “enemies”; Dept of Education, IRS, DoJ, etc.
Promising “free stuff”.
Promoting “victim-hood” for everyone.
etc.

...at least they realize Obamacare isn’t what was promised, maybe they’ll start to wake up to all the other lies.

There is only so much of other people’s money to go around. The left is gaining more control over taxpayers’ money and designating it toward progressive special interest groups, but as the number and power of those groups increases, they begin to fight with each other over the dwindling pool of money.

The federal government gives out $billions in grants, much of which (by direct or by circuitous route) gets into the bank accounts of leftist groups. Find a way to gut this flow of money, and the "Progressive Movement" would implode.

Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminists, aka TERFs?!

Where do they come up with this stuff? Unfortunately, the letter "T" is already taken, so they'll have to come up with another letter of the alphabet for inclusion in the acronym that begins with LGBT(enter your freakshow here)!

I also got a kick out of the "tolerant" folks over at the DailyKooks not even attending since the even was held in AZ.
