The Democrats’ 2020 Campaign Theme Is 'You Americans Are Terrible'
2019-07-23
[TOWNHALL] Remember Animal Farm from back when you were in school and they taught it as a chilling warning about socialism instead of as a how-to manual? Remember the horse who got worked nearly to death then got sent to the glue farm?

Guess what? You’re the horse.

Your job is to work to generate taxes and feed the cities and defend the country while your betters clink Chardonnay glasses between bouts of redistributing the fruits of your labor to buy the votes of their slack Democrat political constituencies.

And besides being the engine that powers the establishment, you also fulfill another important function. You’re the liberal elite’s punching bag, the scapegoat, the convenient excuse for every flaw, failing and foul-up in the society that very same elite runs. You don’t get the credit you’re due; instead you get scorn, because that scorn both gins up the elite’s dopey allies and acts to keep you in line. It’s a stick to beat you and a chain to bind you.

#4  Thing is, there are plenty of non-Americans, dead Americans and TWANLOC on the voter rolls.

They're all fine with this stuff, and the Dems have calculated that there are enough of them to ride to power.

And they may be right.

This is why I roll my eyes at the conservative commentators when they do their "Don't make me angry, you wouldn't like me when I'm angry" routine.

The left has already taken their measure and found them to be weaklings who can ignored and rolled.

And if someone on our side is actually effective in fighting back, these same conservative commentators can be counted on to say "That is not who we are!" while stabbing them in the back.

#3  Your side (ours) was tolerant.

#2  ...it was never about tolerance or equality. It was and is about power.

#1  Time to dust off the old adage "Tolerance is a two way street"?
