Neo-Libs?

  1. So the “old school” libs who pushed out the stone age libs (Truman, JFK, et al) have now found themselves sidelined by the newest generation of super-libs. And since that group has a big voice on the internet, they’re dragging the media along with them?

    How interesting. The preeminent Democrat of the old era, FDR, was this close to being a card carrying Socialist who staffed his cabinet and upper echelons with honest-to-There-Is-No-God Communists. 20 years later and the remnant of that group, Johnson, puts into place the most socialist hand out program seen in decades (The Great Society). But their day is fading, and there’s A New Generation Taking Over (Clinton, Gore, Tsongas). Do we put Lieberman in this group or is he a holdover from the 40s-50s libs? These “neo-liberals” guys “were liberal but not too liberal. They rejected interest-group politics and were suspicious of brain-dead unions. They tended to be hawkish on foreign policy, positive about capitalism, reformist when it came to the welfare state”, which is an utter crock because in fact they were exactly the opposite of what that quote says. So they pushed the social agenda and Big Brother politics even further to the left.

    Now we’re seeing their kids taking the helm. Those kids have grown up as part of the most affluent, safest, cleanest, best fed, healthiest generations this country has ever produced, and they’ve benefited by the technical revolution at the same time. So naturally, this group wants to fight for a radical shift to the left.

    I think this is a wonderful article. If you read between the lines it comes right out and says that today’s libs are just about fascists (if you have two iterations of libs and each moves to the left of a point that was nearly communist to begin with, where are you politically?). It also blatantly states that the press is totally biased and getting more biased by the day.

  2. Bingo, Drew! You read all the fine print between the lines. That was what gave me a bad case of the giggles - reading a Liberal confess to all their crimes. I got to the part about taking over the media and almost spewed coffee. I like it when felons confess without having to be read their Miranda rights.

    LOL

  3. Yep, even before I got to the article I was laughing because as the liberals start ‘eating their own’ I knew that all their sins were going to be put into print. Their anger, their diseased condition of nothing ever being right enough or good enough would cause them to expose each others ‘crimes’ as they attack and attempt to destroy.

    There are problems - as those of us who use our brains know from historical precedent - the young do not have the ‘real’ money power, are at the bottom of the business/profession ladders and oh by the way usually have the lowest voting rates -so, um, just how do they intend on actually getting the control that they are wresting away from the old liberals.

    Yes, you guessed it - they don’t - and just as in 1972 - the conservatives (you know the adults) win the elections and save the day. The libs go back to their racid caves and stew again until their anger and hate propels them forth to make mayhem on the country once again.

    Hopefully, the next time we will have someone who has the guts to stand up and arrest them and stop it before it gets this insane.

  4. wardmama, +1
    drew458 +10

    Basically, the frothing libs just wait until the conservatives get complacent, and the supposedly conservative reps start making concessions to the liberals, and then we get… well.. last November.

  6. Skipper, when you say you’re an old conservative, how do you mean? Is it that you’ve been conservative for most of your adult life?  You certainly don’t strike me as a paleoconservative.  (Correct me if I’m wrong, but aren’t those types usually the Arabist isolationist anti-semites?)

  7. Naw, Lisa. I’m not a Caveman Conservative. I’m just conservative and I’m old.

    I just never could get into any of the wild ideas of the Left in America whether it be abortion, homosexuality, atheism, or socialism in general.

    During the 1950’s and early 1960’s I split my time between the NRA competition shooting contests (Expert Marksman) and the Boy Scouts (Eagle, Order of the Arrow).

    During the 1960’s when I was in college the Liberals on campus were smoking dope and protesting the war. I was studying.

    In the 1970’s I married, had two kids, started raising a family and began work on a long career after a single tour in the USAF.

    Old. Conservative. Although I share some Libertarian concepts with Ronald Reagan, i.e., small government.

  8. Today’s DNC: Neo-Commies! 

    I’m somewhere near the tip top of that little red diamond.
