#1 There is not left or right. Only up or down. YOU ARE GOING DOWN.

SARC ON:

Given, God is a hard core conservative for reasons that may be recounted in history thousands of times, but that does not really matter in your populist fight over squandering cash on the government - the most ineffective household item that NO REPAIRMAN FIXES.

I put big businesses out of business every decade or so, but never have done that to Unkle Breck yet.

Yup, that stability, socialism, and bow to the Gods of Lenin and marx assure you of a Breck future.

You may not have TP for Grandma, and the Government may raid your trust fund, but you have lots of programs. Lots of em.

In fact, the best way to ensure your dollar, budget and state retirement account can survive is by voting for more programs.

Why not turn this entire country into a great big government program. That way, if you need help, you can just fill out a form with little tiny blocks, and I AM sure, the government will care about you.

Lets take it further.
Let's just eliminate the military and declare ourselves a commune. That way, they wont hate us anymore!

YAY!

And do not ever forget health care. Yeah!
All the world can come to the US to get health care because it has no boarders! Not the bookstore stupid, just those things with prickly lines that tell you to make your home better than your NEIGHBOR.

No need to love your neighbor if he provides you health care at the point of a gun with health care that determined by the government tells you if you should live or die. Such an American principle!

You do not like Grandma, euthanize her, you do not like you neighbor or friend? accuse them of a "hate crime".
What a utopia!

My, I wonder what I missed by not joining your "team" long ago.
You sound so "presidential"

swoon.

#2 Joe Mendiola is scratching his head wondering what in the world you just said.

#3 Great to see envy politics, class warfare, and economic illiteracy are still solid foundations for a presidential primary run.

#4 I give it a 9.3. Pretty good for an early stream of TROUT, where are the trout? Why, the ROD, the INSTRUMENT of my salvation is gathering MOSS, and Whitney/Brittany/Brest linger in the caves of DEMONCRACY!

Ask me how... okay here:

Caplock = Yeppers
Verb Agreement = Purdy Much
New Woids = Whai not?
LOL Cats = Nthnx
For Caplock = 1 to New_Woids goes 2 LOL

#5 Yes. When I'm in search of a "middle-class-focused populist message", I look towards a millionaire ambulance chasing lawyer who lives in a twenty thousand square foot house, get's four hundred dollar haircuts, thinks you fight poverty with hedge funds and has enough money to waste that he can blow it on shit like finding pirate treasure to deliver it for me.
There's "Two Americas", Johnny Boy. Maybe ya heard about it...
