Nice find, Venkman.
I'm curious to know how far to the left these socialists need to be for the idiots who put them in office to finally recognize their mistake?

I'm no fan of socialists, but unfortunately sometimes they are needed to balance out the fascist right wingers.

I just prefer fascists because they make no pretense about what they are about. Socialists want us to think they care. Fascists don't care what we think.

People vote for and against legislation for a variety of reasons, but however an imperfect measuring stick it might be, it avoids the inevitable tangential debate that happens when some numbskull accuses everyone in the room of not knowing what the definition of socialism really is.

Unless the subject of the legislation being voted on involves socialism (hint: it doesn't), then whether or not people vote similarly on that legislation says absolutely nothing about whether or not they are all socialists any more than it says whether or not they all like the color blue because blue is the favorite color of one of the Democrats who tends to vote with his party. |
