[Perseverando]

Dictatorships, as has been often noticed, are usually oligarchies of a wealthy elite with a kind of figurehead dictator. ISIS is the Iraqi Baathist oligarchy’s revenge....

Obama is the American progressive oligarchy's revenge on America and the world.

I request the three of you to stop using the term "Progressive" to describe leftists. This is an example of newspeak that we, conservatives, fall for

the Leftists are not progressive as they support racial quotas, killing of babies in the womb (a regressive tactic dating to pre-Christian times), Big government (paternalistic oligarchy) instead of individual responsibility

They are NOT "progressive" -- they use that term to label us, their opponents as "non-progressive" or "regressive" whereas that latter label better befits them.

It's like when they collared the term "liberal" -- heck, they aren't liberal economically (less government interference) -- liberalism isn't truly left or right. Or the term "gay" to describe homosexuals, etc. or even the term "abortion" instead of "baby killing"
