I think they should move to mother Russia where they can idolize Putin daily and never hear a bad word said about him.

I must have not gotten my Liberal Newsletters proclaiming the Venezuelan Dream ...I'll have to check my junk folder...

Honestly, OP, the vast majority of "liberals" and "conservatives" aren't as different as you'd like them to be.

I thought Germany and Sweden were becoming islamic? Isnt that the latest talking point?

We had similar systems of social democratic governance as northern Europe until the 1970s. Then the unions were crushed, taxes were cut for the rich, the minimum wage was eroded, Wall Street were given free reign and anti-trust laws weakened.

Even funnier that conservatives are fighting to preserve social democratic programs like SS and Medicare, then get all worked up about how evil social democracy is (which they call "socialism").

A tiny super rich oligarchy and a desperate and powerless 99% is the goal of the plutocracy in America and their puppets in Congress. The model for these people seeking permanent oligarchy is Mexico and Brazil. And the people who voted for the health care bill in Congress are all in on it. Scary thought.

I think they should move to Russia so that they can pretend that Trump can accomplish a fraction as much as Putin did

Bernie's version of America has already been realized in North Korea.
