Republicans, welcome to your own personal 1980 [View All]

[scheming daemons]

I remember.

I remember what it felt like as we Democrats realized that Keynesian (sensible!) economics was about to be replaced by Friedmanian (supply-side) economics. We knew it would be a disaster. We didn't know how many years it would take, but we knew it was coming. We believed in the regulations put into place during the depression were sound and needed.

I remember what it felt like as we Democrats realized that diplomacy would now take a back-seat to military force as a first option when dealing with foreign policy. We knew that jingoism and faux patriotism would return. We knew.

It took almost three decades, but finally a majority of America is realizing that Reaganomics is a failed economic model and neo-conservatism is a failed foreign policy model.


Republicans... everything you believe is now no longer operative.

We're going back to a time where military force is the option of last resort - but rest assured, if it is necessary, it will be used. After PROPERLY getting a Declaration of War as the Constitution prescribes.

We're going back to a time where our markets and businesses will have to abide by common-sense regulations to keep them from destroying the economy for their own greed.

We're going back to a time when we actually MAKE THINGS in this country instead of moving our jobs overseas.

It might not make the top 1% any richer. But it will grow the middle class.


Class warfare? Sure.... but you guys started it. You strip-mined the middle class for three decades, and when the middle class finally scream "ENOUGH!" you play the "class-warfare" card?


Welcome to the wilderness, Republicans. See you in 2036. By then, maybe you would've learned something and altered your world view.
