Not only that, but reality has no meaning for them; wishing makes it so. Universal health care that's better and costs less and covers everybody? Obamacare did it! Nuclear-free Iran? Obama did it and now that stupid Trump wants to undo it. Economic recovery? Obama gets the credit, for sure. jerrye92002https://www.blogger.com/profile/01858692298982859775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19838051.post-10468813267035494762019-02-08T11:27:19.766-06:002019-02-08T11:27:19.766-06:00The inability of progressive Democrats to remember...The inability of progressive Democrats to remember previous attempts at socialism, and why they failed, just boggles the mind. For that matter, even without history, you have chemistry and physics to show you why these things cannot work. I guess this is why progressives love their "studies" majors. Learning optional, but they "studied" something, so they say.

And, "..."Don't call me stupid."<br /><br />And, "AOC doesn't read Milton Friedman."<br />"Yes, she does, she just doesn't understand it."<br /><br />All those high-speed rail lines, no doubt, will be built with Riordan Steel. <br /><br />Hey, remember how much fun the media had with Trump in 2015? How their breathless reporting and laughter kept everyone in stitches and sucked all the air out of the Republican primaries, suffocating the other candidates, because what the media and their handlers wanted most of all was a Trump presidential run?<br /><br />No, I don't remember, either. 3john2https://www.blogger.com/profile/05359114327414576258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19838051.post-13432076906280795812019-02-08T10:23:22.201-06:002019-02-08T10:23:22.201-06:00It used to be that the way to destroy a politician...It used to be that the way to destroy a politician was to make jokes about them. AOC may in fact be useful as the clown-face of the Democrat party. But on the other hand we should be ever mindful of the Will Rogers theorem: "When Congress makes a joke it's a law, and when they make a law, it's a joke." and As someone else observed, it is dangerous to make jokes about public policy, because sure enough some damn fool will try to make a Law of it!jerrye92002https://www.blogger.com/profile/01858692298982859775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19838051.post-26962064225096947432019-02-08T09:51:34.877-06:002019-02-08T09:51:34.877-06:00AOC and her ilk are the future of the Democrat Par...AOC and her ilk are the future of the Democrat Party, and fellow travelers of those who guide our media and decide our culture. In a democracy, politics follows culture, not the other way around.<br /><br />some of this scares me.<br /><br />and then again, I wonder if AOC is a secret plant by that evil-genius Trump, to be the Face of the Opposition that the media cant help but place front/center...<br /><br />2020 will give us a choice: Make America Venezuela... Or Not.<br /><br />I'm pretty sure David French, Wm Kristol, and George Will won't resist opting for Venezuela... because they're all like conservative and hate Trump.<br />Ginohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09606046924332159076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19838051.post-51584272916094507442019-02-08T08:11:11.161-06:002019-02-08T08:11:11.161-06:00You laugh now...
