Incensed that eight years of bungling, mismanagement, decline, insults, mischaracterizations, slander, lies, theft and voter intimidation had somehow failed to win hearts and minds, the Left decided at last it was time to embrace the inner communist they always had wanted to be, and went full potato. In one decade we went from a Left that insisted vehemently that Republicans were only calling them socialists as negative spin, to one with so many declared socialists it looks like the Berkley faculty lounge. Gone are the days of hiding the tax’n’spend policies behind centrist platitudes. The Left has a very cohesive platform, just not a coherent one—billions in taxes, trillions in spending, government healthcare, government transportation, government income, government spying, racially based reparations, open borders and a brand new Llama named Jimmy for every little girl. I made the last one up. It’s too sane and fiscally feasible. Also it assumes there’s such a gender as “girl”, bigot.

[H/T to Kevin.
He’s got a point you know. The left has gone over the edge and is demanding to take the rest of the country with them.
We live in interesting times.—Joe]

This era is smack-dab in the middle of what Robert Heinlein called “The Crazy Years” in his Future History timeline.
The alternative is that “Whom gods destroy they first make mad.”
Either alternative isn’t particularly encouraging.
The only surprise should how long this has taken. When truth becomes a public enemy things tend to go downhill quickly.
Yes….the left is FINALLY ‘coming out of the closet’ and admitting openly that they are in fact Communists. Many of us have known this for decades. What is truly frightening is that there literally MILLIONS of voting Americans who not only are not upset about this new reality the actually EMBRACE IT. Proof that the Communist agenda of suborning, subverting and controlling the US Education system to indoctrinate students was a smashing success.
