Did it ever start?
I think the mask falls, and the "good times" will really start to roll.

This is wishful thinking. The chances of America electing a conservative who cuts back on all the government that Obama (and Bush, for that matter) added is slim to none. We may get a Republcian government, but it will be like the Bush Republicans who explain why they can’t get rid of Obamacare while they are piling on more programs and spending. The ever-expanding state never ends well and usually ends in revolution and civil war.
Am praying for moonbat meltdowns.
These creeps have been making life increasingly miserable for too long and need to be on the receiving end of the hurt for a change. They created it.
I mean Jay ... I can't tell you how hard this is to take ... I was on top of the 'progressive' world, and now I'm just another loser!
the media is stuck in an Ebola-ISIS cycle that reminds Americans on a daily basis that everything really is out of control.
Out of control is right and it probably has never happened before in America.
“The asexual messenger bag toting wonk has met an ISIS Jihadist and run home to its non-traditional family.”
That’s a great sentence right there!
Ha!
I wish this were true.
If there is a vacuum of truth, the bankrupt ideas of this time will be more ideas that are even worse...
The principle in another context was expressed by Jesus in Luke 14:
“When an impure spirit comes out of a person, it goes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. Then it says, I will return to the house I left. 25 When it arrives, it finds the house swept clean and put in order. Then it goes and takes seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and live there. And the final condition of that person is worse than the first.
Bottom line? Failed philosophies must be replaced with truth.
The progressives aren’t nearly finished. They never set out to simply destroy the republic; their mission is to pick clean the bones of the car as and then scatter them to the winds. They want the state-supreme milieu of feudalism (indistinguishable from socialism) and even the idea of the individual to be suppressed beneath the state.
There is no ending this war without a real, genuine body count and I’m not exaggerating. I’m an old crank who believes a lot of nonsense but I’m literally dead-on with this one.
I expect Maddow & Co. will go first. A combination of the fact that more people can fit into Heinz Field than will watch MSNBC tonight in prime time, and Obama is so arrogant and stubborn I expect he will reject any and all calls to correct course.
Leftist elites who are candid with themselves know that their policies have negative consequences on the economy, but their object is power for its own sake. They think they know better and their unworkable ideas will work if enough people believe in them. Those who do not are marginalized if not eliminated, because their mere contrary thoughts are a threat.
They therefore have good reason to hope that a few generations of public school dumbing-down/indoctrination combined with media bias and propaganda will have acclimated the population to accept their benign tyranny — and to consider freedom to be something that only favors “the rich.” So the false security of dependency is more than seductive for a significant proportion of Americans.
The problem then, isn’t just the Left; it’s the body of the American people, whose fundamental values continue to erode. An increasing number of us have been corrupted to the point wherein we are not only unaware, but unable — and perhaps even unwilling — to see reality. Remember, much of what drives the Left is what they wish could be so and think should be so w/o consequences or limitations.
It is a juvenile mentality, but in the end, Nature brooks no disobedience to her Laws. If we construct a society with unworkable economic policy, social norms that select us for extinction and national security theory that is based upon appeasing those who hate us, our way of life — and We the People ourselves will not survive.
It remains to be seen how far along the American people have been successfully resigned to [or distracted from] our ultimate demise. Others are already within our borders waiting to replace us and our way of life.
Instead of using the word “progressive,” I suggest that we call them what they really are: Left-wing extremists, liberal extremists, environmental extremists, abortion extremists, etc.
What are the ratings for a test pattern?
is MSNBC above that?
Not by any adult with more than three functioning brain cells, it won't.
