I like that. I agree with what other people have added, but, due to my limitations, I prefer short lists. I think I can handle three. Thanks.

Perhaps it is more like “If you don’t agree that we know best then your a “fill in the blank” who needs to be re-educated or destroyed.” Never mind examining a difference of opinion or ideas. Hmm, thinking it over, I think you said it right “It’s all about me. (me meaning them) lol

Corruption, free s#!t, BGI, racism, death, eugenics, and destruction of America as we have known her. The Democrat likes tyranny, as long as it is the tyrant.

A democrat is one who primary believes the federal government is a the BEST agent/tool for social as well as economic change/improvement.

Statism as well as collectivism are preferred, with individual rights determined by the FEDERAL government.

Democrats would fit quite well in the Borg.

Is it possible that raw economic self-interest is what attracts voters to the Democratic Party?

If you rob Peter for the benefit of Paul - you can count on Paul's support.

White liberal elites rob Peter (us) for the benefit of Paul (blacks, dependent women, and union goons who want pensions that bankrupt cities...)

“Democrats would fit quite well in the Borg.”

They are the heartless and evil Borg in America.

Exactly! Their motto is, “I’ve got mine! How are you doing!”

Chris Matthews & Chuck Todd totally stumped the Chair of the DNC with their "difference between a Democrat & Socialist" question.

Let's hope Hillary gets asked the same question.

Perhaps challenged by a GOP candidate to explain.

It means that dirty diapers are the latest rage and anyone who don’t like it is a racist.

But, to be honest, we have plenty supporting the GOP with the same mindset.....it's OUR team!!

Easy: be an atheist. Be a progressive Alinsky-Leninist socialist type ideologue. Be for unlimited Federal Govt.’s power and an attack on individual as well as state’s rights. Be for every amoral and immoral agenda that undermines our Const., Democratic Judeo-Christian Republic.

All I ever see from liberals is projection, they accuse others of being exactly what they are but imagine themselves to be these wonderful “compassionate”, “tolerant” people who devote themselves to helping others. It is almost like a bank robber calling himself a financial counselor and accusing the bank depositors of robbing him.

“Inside every liberal is a totalitarian screaming to get out.”

Actually it’s more like every totalitarian calls himself a liberal. I wouldn’t despise them nearly as much if they admitted to being what they are.
