You call people names, dengrate them, and then expect them to come around to your way of thinking. That's pretty funny.

Maybe when the liberal voters finally wake up to the fact they too are being short changed, then they will too be fed up. But, first they have spit out the pablum of identity politics.

The Democrat establishment come from the same school of shills as the Republican establishment.
I would love to see a Sanders/Trump ticket. Or a Trump/Sanders ticket.

That's an intriguing take on things.

One difference the left is more than willing to feed their people drugs, prescription medication and free stuff. The people are more than willing to take this stuff thinking they are open-minded and what can go bad with any of this stuff besides not having knowledge and not seeing government intrusion. If we all feel good, have hope, believe government can end all sadness why speak up!


Liberal seems to spread the meaning of dumbing down and being a victim of ones own self. I also believe Conservatism has their own Liberalisms.


This shows where we are today: C-Society is composed of individuals to be judged on their individual merit. Values individualism, self-reliance, and independence.
L-Sees society as composed of groups: black vs. white, old vs. young, rich vs. poor, male vs. female. These groups are pitted against each other. Stirs up racial and class envy and division.

Both sides play the same game and wear the same leashes, and are walked by the same masters to take their daily dump on the public they supposedly serve.

When is the last time anyone actually felt like politicians are "servants of the people?"

They say it constantly, when they need votes... only to turn a 180° once elected. They must, simply because the will of the people is trumped by the will of special interest.

groups are pitted against one another so that they are divided and conquered.

the core interest of business is served as a result. power is reserved thus for those at the top of the liberal structure.
