Wisdom of Mencken

"As democracy is perfected, the office of president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart’s desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron."

H.L. Mencken (1880 - 1956)

Thanks to Amy and Beth for the insight.

    The Insanity of the Left

    As America’s Democrat Party leaps to the extreme left, its leadership can’t figure out why America soundly rejected Kerry and Democrat members of the House and Senate.

    Showing incredible vanity, Kerry said on 11/09/2004 that he might run again in 2024! To those of us on the winning side of the isle, we say “GO KERRY GO!”. Because by 2024, Democrats will still be wondering why they were crushed in the 2024 presidential election.

    America is not a socialist, crybaby, whining european country. We know better than to follow Canada, and Western Europe down the road to Communism-Lite. Yet this is exactly what the democrat party has become, an extension of the EU. Is it any wonder why Kerry was so liked by the EU and its would be leader, France?

    For the next four years, Winning Conservatives need to explain to man-on-the-street democrats why we reject radical left wing philosopy, and why its harmful to every American.

    Lets make certain that at the next election, Conservatives win by 55% or better!

    The left is wrong, and they know it, but their God hating vanity will not allow them to change. Conservatives who endorse Traditional Familiy Values will win everytime!

    America has spoken: Marriage is between Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve.
