I’ve noticed that liberals are obsessed with Fox News. I’ve even created strategies to deal with their obsession:

Lib: Did you hear that on Fox News?
Me: You mean the #1 news network in the country? That Fox News?

Good point.

You can add the left is also big on lust, as in fag rights(?), and sloth as in pay for no work.

even despite the greater-than-hoped-for success of Obamacare

Delusional much? I only got this far. It wasn't even worth that one minute.

How is Elizabeth Warren a populist? She’s a full-tenured professor at Harvard and US Senator - sounds pretty elite. In terms of policy she’s been obsessed on a few weird regulations effecting money-center banks. Whether or not banks can invest funds with hedge funds isn’t really a “chicken in every pot” sort of populist issue.

She has faux outrage, but then so did Obama. Obama also pretended to be a populist, but of course is a slave to the elite. One suspects Warren will be too.

I stopped immediately after reading near the beginning of the article - “...despite the greater-than-hoped-for success of Obamacare”.

In a way I am glad this author and his sophomoric fellow travelers are delusional - their detachment from reality may continue to move their puppets out of elective office.

The lead-in alone was enough to call this garbage, I never got past page 2. If an author wants me to read crap, he needs to condense it and not call me a racist in the first 2 paragraphs.

With liberal pap like this, you don't need to read the entire screed to know that this is just nonsense.

Good, because with my Attention Deficit Disorder, anything that looks longer than a single paragraph, four sentences isn't gonna get read by me.

That's about how far I made it too when I concluded "don't need to read this bullshit this morning!"

This is the first sentence of this piece: "In the mid-term elections, the GOP’s not-so-secret weapon was fear. Fear of Ebola, fear of ISIS, and fear of immigrants all played a significant role in shaping the pre-election political climate, and Democrats for the most part, responded by hunkering down into a defensive crouch."

Let's discuss where the author goes wrong. First, the GOP is a club not a political party and couldn't organize a prom if it had too, much less organize a fear campaign involving Ebola, ISIS and immigrants (invaders).

Second, the fear created had nothing whatsoever to do with the GOP. On Ebola the rank incompetence, deadly political correctness and setting Africa economies ahead of America were all products of the Obama Administration and incessantly broadcast by the Obama-supporting media. The GOP was no where to be found.

ISIS conducted a blitzkrieg into Iraq from the northern border to the outskirts of Baghdad. Territory painfully gained under Bush, the surge and the Anbar Awakening. All of this was given up by Imam Obama to Islam. Again, the GOP was no where.

Immigration, falsely described, because we are dealing with people, who have no intention of becoming Americans, its more like bringing their countries into America. Obama orchestrated a Children's Crusade to bring tens of thousands of children (MS-13) members into the US as part of his cynical plan of transforming America into a 3rd world hellhole. Now, ordinary Americans went out there protesting this, but the GOP did nothing, until the lame-duck session, when it funded Obama's "immigration" plans.

The GOP is a club for its members. They represent no one but themselves. As long as they get there's, screw everyone else.

Democrats had two potential strengths innovation and maturity.
Comedy writers come up with some real funny stuff when they try.

Strange. He doesn’t mention Fox News anywhere in this lengthy bit of nonsense.

”A Commitment to Truth Requires a Commitment to Social Justice,”

This comment from the article is a great example that progressive thought is based on the lie of Social Justice and it’s not to be questioned.

Like this “thought” in the article:

“....Being cared for by the whole nation only makes them care more about the whole nation in return. That’s why they’ll go to work despite ostensibly getting so little in return—because the lion’s share of what they get is not the income they receive, but the satisfaction of knowing that they’re helping to sustain Denmark as a whole.”

Once again, as in 2010, they largely abandoned any pro-active agenda setting of their own, any talk of breaking new ground, exploring new possibilities—even despite the greater-than-hoped-for success of Obamacare...

I stopped at this point.
