Actually, very many white people know exactly what it’s like to be poor. We could give you lessons, Bernie! Want ’em? (You can bet your boots he doesn’t!)
The thing that makes socialism immoral is that it rests on a sin–the mortal sin of envy. Anyone who has more than me has robbed me! Well, Big Brother’ll take care of him!
And if you need an explanation as to why race-baiting is a sin, I don’t know that there’s any hope for you.
Envy, fear, and hate–you serve up a nice cocktail, Bernie Sanders.
In 2016 Democrats chose to flip a coin–literally– to decide the outcomes of several county primaries in Iowa. This is what a sane person calls frivolous. As in “not having any serious purpose or value.” Hey, they’re all gonna be rich no matter who wins.
In the five years since this was written, the only thing they’ve proved they’re serious about is doing as much damage to our country as they can.
I feel like Karl Kolchak trying to convince his editor that vampires and bayou monsters are infesting Chicago. I mean, I’m about to tell you Bernie Sanders has emerged as the voice of reason on Capitol Hill. Compared to that, demons in a housing development seems rather easier to believe in.
‘Cause if they do, he warns, the next time Republicans are in power, they’ll do the same thing; and by and by we’ll wind up with 857 Supreme Court justices and no public confidence left in any of its decisions. It would also take years and years of wrangling to reach a decision on anything, but let that pass for now.
C’mon, Bernie! What could go wrong? The special House commission will be led by Jerry “Shoulda Worn a Diaper” Nadler and Hank “The island of Guam might capsize if we put any more Marines on it” Johnson–the best and the brightest among House Democrats. How can this not be a brilliant idea?
Bernie’s not the only Dem trying to keep the car from going off the cliff. Justice Stephen Breyer. Harry Reid. Ruth Bader Ginsburg, just before she died.
When Franklin Roosevelt tried to pack the court, House Democrats turned against him and he couldn’t do it. But today’s blind folly seems to be arising from the House itself, with encouragement from the scarecrow in the White House.
And why bother to pack the court at all, when the justices are already so afraid of riots that they won’t even look at the 2020 election?
I’m tellin’ ya, they’ll shut us all down before they’re through!
Wow. The self-proclaimed Masters of the Universe have gone too far for even Bernie Sanders to keep up with them.
A few months ago, Twitter banned President Donald Trump for as long as the stars shine and the grass grows–on the specious grounds that people interpreted his tweets as an incitement to riot (because only Democrats are allowed to incite riots, don’t you know).
Well, socialist Senator Bernie Sanders says he’s “not comfortable” with that (https://nypost.com/2021/03/23/bernie-sanders-not-comfortable-with-trump-twitter-ban/). After depositing the usual heap of epithets against President Trump, Sanders said, “Yesterday it was Donald Trump who was banned, and tomorrow it could be somebody else who has a very different point of view.” It’s unacceptably risky, he said, for “a handful of high tech people” to control speech in America.
Ya think?
In this, Sanders is echoing the view expressed by several European leaders–who’s to stop Big Tech from silencing anyone they please, for any reason? Trump today, Angela Merkel tomorrow.
Meanwhile, Capitol Hill is densely populated by Democrats who want to silence everybody who’s not them; and if Big Tech is a little slow on the draw, trust these Dems to pep them up.
Please–you don’t think for one minute that O’Crazy-O-Cortez, or Schumer, or Schiff, or Pelosi believe in free speech, do you?
Liberty and Democrats just don’t go together at all.

At first glance, this nooze item is merely silly and trivial. But look again: it’s a symptom of the disease that’s killing our culture.
Senator Bernie Sanders, attending the inauguration of, ahem, “President” Joe Biden, found the weather very cold that day, so he wore a thick coat… and mittens. Like, instead of a Hawaiian shirt and shorts. This innocent and sensible choice of apparel won him a public condemnation by a San Francisco public high school “teacher,” published as an op ed in the San Francisco Chronicle and was used for fund-raising for an assortment of idiotic leftid causes.
The so-called teacher said the image of Bernie in his cold weather gear “epitomize(s) white privilege”–indeed, “white privilege, male privilege, and class privilege.”
We send our kids to public schools to be “taught” by Far Left idiots because ______________. Fill in the blank. I dare you.
No sympathy for Bernie, though! He’s spent years feeding this beast, and now it’s bitten him in the tuchas.
But now we have people picking fights for truly absurd non-reasons, freaking themselves out with imaginary grievances, infecting our institutions with their bitter follies, force-feeding it to children and college students–the whole Far Left Crazy taking the country on a thrill ride to disaster. And no one has thought of any effective way to stop it.
How does dressing warmly in cold weather make you a Racist?
We can only pray these wackos wind up devouring each other.
Was there ever a time when the Democrat Party wasn’t crooked? First they stole a nomination from Bolshevik Bernie Sanders. Now they’ve stolen a whole election.
But whatever the crime, it’s never their fault! Nope–the blame always gets slapped onto whoever was trusting enough to blow the whistle on the crime. That’s how they managed Climategate: and instead of the whole Climbit Change enterprise going down in flames, the Climategate scandal was chased clean out of the nooze cycle.
(Somehow the hymn that originally went with this post got taken away. Let the readers decide what hymn ought to be posted here. The first suggestion I receive is the one I’ll use.)

This post was written when Bernie Sanders was still in the Senate, indulging in a public orgy of Christ-hating.
It appalls me that this could happen here in America.
This deterioration of our nation’s culture was accomplished during my own lifetime, right before my eyes–and yet I can’t explain how they did it. All I know is that a lot of very bad, and a lot of very badly deluded, people worked very hard at it for a long time. Imagine if they’d turned their hands to some decent purpose.
The Democrat establishment has kneecapped Bernie Sanders (again!), but his ideas have saturated the party. The only question between them was “Which do we prefer–stealth socialism or openly-declared socialism?”
We are paying the real price now for years and years of letting leftists and idiots “educate” our children. Escaping the consequences of this folly will be extraordinarily difficult.
I read things like Bernie Sanders’ book so I can understand where the enemy is coming from and try to mobilize Christians against his plan.

What? You just shut it down? What about the states that haven’t voted yet? Sorry, folks.
In an interview last night on NPR, James Clyburn, who has suddenly emerged as the Democrat kingmaker, said the primary should be shut down and Biden declared the winner, take a hike, Bernie… because “you don’t do anything but get yourself in trouble if you continue in this contest.” Do they have to do what he says?
You can see their problem. Two candidates on worldwide TV. One of them’s a communist. The other doesn’t know where he is or what he’s doing, half the time. The other half the time, he can’t control himself. Not exactly a sure-fire way of rounding up sane people’s votes.
These two candidates, each appalling in his own way, could destroy each other. The Party can’t afford to let this happen. But to shut down the primary? When was the last time that was done? Certainly not in my lifetime. I’ll bet it’s never been done.
Clyburn is afraid of what these lunatics might say, once they get going. He should be.
The American people deserve to see and hear just how out-to-lunch these two guys are. But the Party muck-a-mucks don’t think so.
