This is the scariest thing I have seen today. If young people embrace socialism and propel Sanders to the White House, it will be a catastrophe unlike anything seen in the last 8 years and worse than FDR. Having visited communist countries firsthand I have seen the carnage.

I saw the dumbest thing today on Facebook. A friend of a friend who commented that she’s for socialism. It could work, it just never has worked before because it’s only been tried by fascists. Same a communism. I was astounded. i did not comment since I didn’t know the person and did not know the person in common all that well.

Didn’t FR get rid of all those hideous quotation marks??? It’s un-readable.

[HiTech RedNeck]

It sounds preposterous, but lefties have been known to move heaven and earth to get things to happen.

[Ann Archy]

If she's got $10.00 that she worked to get, she needs to fork over $5.00 to a stranger that didn't work for it!!

Women can be so stupid.

[Olog-hai]

Communism is based on hatred; even Lenin explicitly said so. To even think of being a communist is pure madness.

Ah yeah, the old it-will-work-if-only-the-right-people-get-in-charge excuse. Lots of stupids actually believe it.

All I've ever seen them do is re-draw the maps.

[HiTech RedNeck]

And drive buses etc.

Socialist governments killed 100 000 000 people during the last century. Think of what they could have accomplished if only the right people had been in charge.

Sanders could win. Especially if the GOP nominates another loser type candidate -— need we say more? Sanders is more honest than O ( which obviously ain’t saying much) and Bernie doesn’t hate America like O. But I believe Sanders’ political views are almost exactly wrong for USA — and especially now that O has driven America, our economy, our defenses, and our alliances down so far —we very much need someone who can help us recover-—but yes, old Bernie ( unlike Hillary the Liar) could win quite easily against the wrong R’s. all this is meant to say: we discount old Bernie the Red at our own peril!! At least that’s what I’ve tried to say several times — nobody likes hearing it and do I get flamed. But it’s gotta be said. It’s quite possible the D party bosses will realize almost nobody wants Hillary shoved down their throats again. The D party might just wake up and retire her. Then, watch out folks — Bernie can campaign pretty well and he doesn’t come with Hilary’s bad bsggsge

Some kind of overseeing heaven has been respected by all governments that have been successful at anything beyond repression. Quite often it is Christianity, but not 100% of the time.

[HiTech RedNeck]

Dear Donald could mop the floor with Bernie.

[faithhopecharity]

Free sex? Superduper!!!!!!Thanks!!!!! You’ve helped me find my candidate -at last!!!!!!!!!

[MomMcGraff]

My 31 year old (stupid) nephew insists that “Democratic” socialism is different than the “old” socialism. I said “pig...lipstick”. It’s all semantics. His generation has been indoctrinated very well!

[SecondAmendment]

It’s looking more and more like a second civil war is inevitable ...

[HiTech RedNeck]

Theology and the story of sin and salvation does not change.

You idolize men, you get the same old same old EVERY SINGLE SOLITARY TIME.

[HiTech RedNeck]

It could concentrate at the spiritual level this time around. Shooting men is a poor proxy for driving out demons.
