Somehow I doubt that. Anyone who uses the term "liberal lefties" doesn't seem very objective and an "equal opportunity" critic at all. Just say'n.

When virtually 99% of the media and colleges are run by the far left, it's laughable when you say the left is the new enemy.

That's because people are not automatons who parrot back machine language lol. There is intellectual dishonesty on both sides but it seems to be disproportionate on the liberal side.

Huh, and I thought them ISIS terrorists were conservatives.

Domestically, boneheadedness is the new enemy- and it's winning the war. OPs posts are prime examples.

Can't we just buy every homeless person in Alaska a one way ticket to Seattle or Portland and be done with it? They love homeless people down there and probably would appreciate some more. Throw in a couple airplane bottles of whiskey and a pack of smokes and I'm sure a decent number of them would hop on the plane.

They used to do that... Called it a "blue ticket".

You're right, it's the enemy that's always been there, luckily America finally decided to wake up a month ago and start using the ballot box.

It's a virtual invasion, except instead of bombs, tanks, and planes, the weapons of choice are SJWs, Islam, and illegal immigration.

Anchorage could be a great city again, but with the amount of overweight obese native drunkards and homeless wrecking the city, it's going to be a long road IMO to make Anchorage great again.

Right, it's "bone headed" to stop illegal immigration, rampant substance abuse, and homelessness, you know, some of the things turning Anchorage into a pit.

As for ISIS, strong centralized power, high taxes levied, and no private gun ownership... yup, they definitely sound like leftist!
