In his world, there will be the ruling class and then every body else. Bye-bye middle class.

Three generations of entitlement-minded sheeple make it all the more likely that these socialists will win the WH. The takers, in cahoots with the ‘better-than-the-little-people” Hollywood pinheads, have become a powerful force in swaying the undecided’s among us.

How did we get here? We forgot that we must remain on constant vigil against the creeping liberal slime that fails to recognize that government funds derive only from the governed. We were asleep at the wheel of the ship of state when FDR rearranged the deck chairs and successfully germinated a big-brother state. We’ve been paying that piper ever since.

It’s time to reclaim the country, IMO. Won’t be easy, and won’t be pretty. But, if we are to survive as a free nation, we simply must. And it starts with defeating the liberal dhimmirat mindset that seeks to push (drag?) us along the path to socialized medicine, social welfare programs, government mandated curricula in our schools, and all the other things that demean personal responsibility, penalize risk taking and economic success, and seek to legislate morality.

Not only is “president” Obama going to “change” the US economy but he said it was his job to help the mexican economy. Maybe we can just pass our Stimulus checks on to mexico.

I couldn't stomach watching any of this odious DNC lovefest, er, "debate".

Were any tough questions asked?... I didn't think so!

“We are going to subsidize those who can’t afford it,” he said.

And then, as with all other liberal/socialist policies, we'll feign surprise when "those who can't afford it" skyrocket in numbers.

I’ll pick... Obama going into the convention with a sizeable delegate lead, and the Clintons stealing the nomination.

Let’s see, SS/payroll taxes are paid in, and the gov’t gets to use that money interest free instead of it being in the economy and being invested or spent,

and they want to tax it when they pay it back out?

The founders would have laughed any such suggestion out of Congress.
