So, you’ve stumbled onto my humble little blog. Perhaps you are a Millenial wondering why most of your friends aren’t fully employed. Or wondering why ObamaKare is being shoved down your throat. Or why your generation is on the hook for a national debt that stands at $17 $18 Trillion and counting. Maybe you are scratching your head wondering why your President thinks Global Warming the weather is more worrisome than Islamic Terror. And perhaps you’ve started to become aware there might be something the corrupt and biased lame stream media isn’t telling you. The answer, to these and other existential questions, is ... the Left - specifically, the modern American Progressive. Think of this site as a portal to a richer understanding of this answer, a portal purposely designed with a consciously cock-eyed bent to keep it entertaining. Because the First Amendment is forever and the Internet never forgets. (Plus you better figure out FICA isn't the name of a Swedish bikini model, before she eats your entire paycheck.)

How to use the portal? You could dive into my archive*. I was most active here 2010-2012, but that matters not. How many times do I need to demonstrate the central point? To wit, the political / ideological Left is a menace to the constitutional republic and must be resisted lest the American experiment in liberty devolve into socialist dystopia. If it's the more pointed hand-to-hand combat of the comment board that whets your appetite, click the 'My Disqus Comments' widget. I continue to visit that world from time to time as a light diversion. Or you could browse through my blog roll. It's a very representative collection of center-right blogs, though hardly exhaustive. I can't do the political / ideology thing 24x7, and you probably can't either. Leave that to the hysterical, talking point chanting, mob agitating, race baiting, election stealing, gaia worshiping, straw man torching, Islamic Terrorist appeasing, organized Left (aka OFA, MSNBC, UAW, SEIU, Think Progress, Media Matters, most of legacy media, the politically correct faculty lounge, anybody who belonged to Journolist, anybody connected to Occupy Wall Street, anything funded by George Soros or Tom Steyer, their paid Internet trolls, and the rest of the usual Team Leftie suspects).

On the "47%" Gotcha Video


The impact on the election - based on what has occurred so far - will be negligible.

Conservative morale, if anything, gets a tiny bounce from seeing Mittens is capable of such thoughts, however inartful he may be in articulating them.

Team Leftie morale gains nothing. They are already fully vested in the insidious Richie Rich: Robber Baron smear campaign directed at Mittens.

The all-important clueless independents will be perplexed by arguments based on percentages, and turned off by a video source that is obviously the product of a dirty trick.

The more interesting aspect of this episode is the timeline, and what it tells us about the current state of the republic's politics.

May 2012: Team Leftie operative captures what Team Leftie assumes is embarrassing to their political enemy.

May 2012 - September 17, 2012: Team Leftie sits on this invaluable doomsday missile, waiting for an opportune moment to launch.

September 18, 2012: Team Leftie launches invaluable doomsday missile when the news is all about the foreign policy of Team Leftie's current champion - the Empty Suit Known as Barack Hussein Obama - completely unraveling with an election around the corner.

LAS Conclusion: This is the best Team Leftie has. And, as I've already explained, it does little to nothing on its own to change the dynamic of an election that can still go either way. (Though I remain on record predicting a Mittens victory in the end.) This is actually an opportunity for Mittens to belatedly take up the big idea argument - to contrast the Founder's vision of an opportunity society populated by sovereign citizens with his opponent's socialist vision of an entitlement society populated by sheeples wholly dependent upon the shaky and incompetent hand of big nanny state gub'ment.

Mittens can still give a speech on the matter, as I heard Stephen Hayes recommend last evening on the Fox panel. And he still has three debates to score a real time TKO, biased moderation notwithstanding.

This sure would be a lot easier if Newt was the nominee.

But {sigh} ... since the Establishment GOP has given us Mittens, I recommend to him as required reading the Daily Caller editorial from this morning.
There will always be some who for whatever reason find themselves dependent on the charity of others. But when half the population is along for the ride, the system becomes dangerously out of balance. Things fall apart.

This isn’t right-wing theorizing. Decent neighborhoods collapse this way. So do whole societies.

Romney should say this. Loudly and often and without embarrassment. As he suggested at his secretly videotaped fundraiser in Boca Raton, America is at the tipping point. Many Americans sense this, and not just conservatives but independents and hard-working Democrats and anyone else who understands the degrading and destabilizing effects of dependency. Romney’s remarks are defensible. He should defend them.
