A few days ago I showed how the polls for the Dems have gone from bad to worse since the November elections.
Quite simply, the Dems deserve to lose and keep losing.
My family moved to Libby, Montana in the 1970's when I was still young. I spent the largest part of my childhood growing up in this tiny, mountain town.
I recently started re-reading an old 18th century Chinese satirical novel called 'The Scholars', and I can't help but draw parallels not only between the blatantly corrupt literati of the Qing (or Ch'ing, depending on who you ask) Dynasty and the American Professional Class today, but the insane standards of both that made people waste their entire lives just to live up to them only to die trying or come up short.

Once upon a time, I believed the American dream pertained to everyone. Sadly, I have been progressively deterred from that opinion. What woke me up? Bernie! My worldview will never be the same. Regretfully, when having my eyes opened widely, I began detecting more and more corruption. Many of you caught on to this miasma of politico-social events long before I have. Congratulations to all.
