As the liberal counter culture movement has expanded and taken control of the country over the decades, the country and people have become worse and worse, sicker and dumber, poorer and more immoral. The Democrat party is doing to the nation that which it has done to the big liberal cities. In the end they will have destroyed themselves and the US. And that's victory to the left. When there are no more angry white conservatives, it's all over.
Presumably, you would prefer the nation to go the way of West Virginia, Mississippi, Arkansas, Kentucky, and Louisiana vs wealthier, healthier, and better-educated Massachusetts, Maryland, Colorado, Connecticut, and Vermont? Poorer, sicker, and dumber are quantifiable, so you'll have to ignore reality to sustain your prejudices - which, no doubt, you'll do. Numerous comparative criteria are readily available. Here's just one: Statistics such as the South having the highest regional per capita murder rate in 2011 at 5.5; the decadent Northeast the lowest at 3.9, with the Midwest's at 4.5, and the West at 4.2. In any event, you can expect the progress to continue - even if it gets you in a tizzy.
The great leftist historian Howard Zinn said that "dissent is the highest form of patriotism." He was right. All leftists bowed down to him before he died. You are going to see the formation of a nation within a nation like the ghost within the machine working at cross purposes with you. - - - Updated - - - Novel writing style! Have you named your new style?
You are taking the USA government position of enriching the supporters with "HISTORICAL INVESTMENT" based upon civil war support in the northeast. That investment is LONG GONE TO CHINA, HOMEY. Let's look at those numbers in 25 years WHEN YOUR SUGAR DADDY IS WRITING LETTERS TO YOU FROM CHINA.
Instead of indulging yourself in such a surfeit of vapid bluster, try forming and articulating a coherent, rational agenda. Wallowing in relentless negativity, and spewing such consummate bilge does not endear your ilk to thoughtful folks. If you can possibly present a positive vision to Americans, I'm sure they would, at the very least, acknowledge you.
I believe the problem to be,that polititians have completely forgotten how to be patriots.There's simply too much money involved in politics,and it forces candidates to waver from thier actual beliefs in order to get elected. Then once elected, they are swallowed up by the parties ideology,by being bullied from carreer polititians.Thats one reason I believe in term limits for all in politics.That way no one person can gain too much power. We are in a very sad time in government,and it's going to take all of us,as Americans,to turn it around. Knowlege is power! The problem we have is too many people are voting,without that knowlege. We have to start looking at the whole picture,and stop voting on a single issue and ignoring the rest. Don't know how to get people to wake up,but we all need to try.
I am very, very sympathetic to your concerns, but would rather that Americans intelligently exert the power of choice rather than be deprived of the freedom to vote for any candidate of their choice, including an incumbent. As long as money dominates politics, the moneyed special interests will exert disproportional influence over both politicians and those who elect them. And the fact that they can do so under a cloak of anonymity only compounds the perversion of democracy.
Hey, the guy with the cap kinda looks like me, and the baldy kinda looks like you! I am a little better looking than either though.
And you should really put a black person to the left of the rich white guy with a larger pile money representing the trillion dollar welfare state.
So, essentially, what we've gathered from the OP is that we're guaranteed to experience gridlock for at least another few election cycles. Finally, some good news for once....
And by "progress" you mean destruction of American wealth to equilibrate to a LOW global standard, of course. Why don't you just say it?
By implication you have just admitted you anticipate the American left to be defeated in 2014. You need an editor. - - - Updated - - - He's reluctant to admit his objectives. But he's British. All the British posters here have ulterior motives. Don't trust them.
If that is your inference, you are welcome to it. I do not believe that they will be ready to pull the plug by 2014. The death watch will extend through the off-year elections. By 2016, today's fading GOP core - older, angry, southern, white, bible-thumpers will be an enfeebled quaint vestige.
Demographics = Destiny. However, if the failing GOP can, as in 2012, again loose the popular vote nationally but retain control of the House via gerrymandered districts, and even achieve majority status in the Senate by a far greater vote deficiency by targeting vast resources at sparsely-populated, overwhelmingly White states, they can postpone the death knell until 2016. The presidency is already out of reach for the foreseeable future. ,
Who will the Democrats have to blame for their on-going failures without the GOP? Witches? - - - Updated - - - Folks, this progressive is providing us a service by openly telling us what the utlimate goal of progressive immigration policy is. They can't win without bringing in foreigners. Is that Democratic? Or a coup? The UK Left did the same thing and now Brits are fleeing London and other major cities for Wales. Basically, white progressives are on a Kamikaze mission to end traditional Western Civilization.
The American people have expressed themselves in twice electing the Democratic President, a majority Democratic Senate, and in casting more votes for Democrats than Republicans for the House nationwide.in the last election. If you deem that relative "failure" let's hope your version of Republican "success" continues. Your xenophobia causes you to obsess over the empowering tradition of this nation: immigration, but better-educated younger Americans are a significant factor in that demographic migration to the Democratic Party. The handwriting on the wall is writ large for the literate:
The title needs to replace the question mark with a period, and add in "straight Christian" after "angry white." Angry white straight Christian guys' swan song. Although gerrymandering may serve as a ventilator for a while.
