No...
You could have just stopped there, especially since instead of trying to defend the perspective you liked, which I repudiated, you decided to post a silly attempt at deflection instead. I guess you realized that you didn't have a legitimate reply to post.

This isn't a matter of partisan bias, but rather basic logic. It is simply is unintelligent to try to defend something by saying it is the same as something else, which you condemn.

I don't get checks from the DNC. Is your perspective so corrupted that you cannot respond to reasonable people disagreeing with you in any manner other than making up lies?

Isn't it ironic that some of these partisan hacks and country dividers try and point the finger??


If your a blind D or R supporter kindly jump off a cliff. Your worthless to this country at this point.

To be fair, anyone who suggests anyone else jump off a cliff, even jokingly, is "more worthless" to this country than the partisans on the opposite side of my own perspective. There's a bit of wisdom we use often at work: Lead, follow or get out of the way. It might make sense here.

I disagree.


I may suggest jokingly someone jump off a cliff, but at least I have solutions.

Yes. I am sure that's only a problem with the Democrats. Good going.

What good are they if they are not going to be supported by a majority (and sometimes a super-majority)? By your logic, Hillary Rodham Clinton's universal healthcare proposal was the solution for the problem of those less fortunate in society being unable to afford basic healthcare. It wasn't, only because other people had other objectives that it didn't satisfy, and their perspectives counted. Remember: Just because you have a preference that will address what you consider the objectives doesn't mean that they address what everyone else considers the objectives. Living in society with others requiring learning to think beyond just yourself and your own interests.

If it's a problem for both parties, and I agree that it is, why do Democrats falsely claim to be for the little guy? How gullible are you Dem voters?

The quotation is a fake. Khrushchev never said it.

That said... it is correct on at least one part. Some Americans are so gullible.

Straw man.

No progressives actually believe this.

Obama and all of today's Democrats are unapologetic "progressives" (socialists). They despise the Constitution, and they hide behind a facade of being supporters of Liberty, they do not believe in Liberty at all. They believe in government. They do not believe in the "natural rights" as specified in the Declaration of Independence," but rather that rights are extended or granted by government.

Obama's "fundamentally transform" statement was a statement of the goal of "Progressives" to transform America into a progressive utopian society, where government takes the lead role in creating a "better" society, through redistributive policies, and central planning.

But, central planners have no incentive to discover new information. The result is not what is promised, but a disincentive for achievement and entrepreneurship, and suppression of the human spirit. This is why all socialist systems of the past have failed to deliver on their promises.

The desire of the human spirit is for Liberty. It is only under Liberty that true greatness can be achieved.
ROTFLMAO! "reign of terror"??? Really? ROTFLMAO!
