| #1 Newsweak may be socialist, but the rest of us can make up our own minds. The European model is totally refuted by the problems that model created for Europe - high unemployment, huge social welfare costs, unlimited, unassimilated immigration, a weak military, and a governing class that has nothing but disdain for the "people". It CAN happen here, and Obambi is trying hard to make sure it happens here, but I don't see him succeeding. All he's going to do is make such a mess it'll take decades to clean it all up. Since we're going to have to clean up HIS mess, we need to clean up Woodrow Wilson's, FD Roosevelt's, and JB Johnson's messes at the same time - it'll be easier to clean it all up at once than to try to do it piecemeal. To do it, we're going to have to trumpet every failure of the Democratic Party, establish a strong CONSERVATIVE party that actually believes that the smaller the government, the better the government, and that the Constitution means what it says. |
