Obama does fulfill liberalism’s transformation since Franklin Roosevelt. What had been under FDR a celebration of America and the values of its working people has become a doctrine of condescension toward those people and the supposedly coarse and vulgar country that pleases them.

This sort of folk mythology is, I suspect, behind the otherwise inexplicable pro-unionism of otherwise intelligent people, such as the author Eric Flint.

Any system is capable of exploitation, and a system that allows considerable freedom allows considerable room for exploitation, depending on the personal morality of the people involved.

Unfortunately, pro-union regressives are very quick to jump on the exploitation that occurred in the system they don’t like, and very slow to jump on the exploitation that occurs in the system they do.

AIR TRAVEL has gotten so bad these days that going to the airport requires either an exercise in sadomasochism or an abiding faith that everything will be okay. That faith seems to be shattered daily.

For more than two decades, 250 historians and specialists labored to produce the first six volumes of the General History of Latin America, an exhaustive work financed by UNESCO, the United Nations organization created to preserve global culture and heritage.

Then, over the course of two years, UNESCO paid to destroy many of those books and nearly 100,000 others by turning them to pulp, according to an external audit.

They dress like characters from the days of Laura Ingalls Wilder, their old-fashioned clothing covering them from neck to ankle. They’ve never eaten processed food or watched television. They’ve been trained to fear and mistrust outsiders.

Sounds like how regressives would like the rest of us to live. No processed food! No TV! No videogames! They probably oppose Global Warming, too.

They’ve also been conditioned to believe it’s normal for men to have multiple wives and for a young girl to marry a much older man as soon as she reaches puberty.

They should have moved to Pakistan. Or London.

And guess how much this is costing the taxpayers of Texas.

Law enforcement authorities Tuesday continued searching the 1,700-acre ranch run by a reclusive polygamist sect but announced there were no new developments in the search for the 16-year-old girl who sparked the raids by telling state Child Protective Services a 50-year-old man has married her and fathered her child, a spokeswoman for the Texas Rangers said Tuesday afternoon.

Guess they’ll have to leave then, right? And I’m sure that the Washington Post will be editorializing in favor of these guys civil rights, which have been so egregiously violated, right? And the ACLU will be parachuting in lawyers to help out, right? Right?

An oxymoron, of course, but — like the expungement of the term “liberal” by those who are of that persuasion — an attempt to spin statism as actually being something else. Don’t be fooled.

Invariable rule: If you ever see an adjective in front of a well-understood general term, someone is trying to snooker you. This is how the nice man who says “Pick a card — any card” is able to take your money.

Examples: Social justice. Compassionate conservatism. Social democracy.

Obviously there is so little competition for America in the world that we have to provide ringers to our enemies just to enable them to be competitive.

In the countries from which these potential defendants came, organizations like the ACLU would be shut down and people associated with it imprisoned or worse. Why do so many delusional Americans have such a suicide drive?

The problem is that we aren’t likely to get either from the Democrat party in general and Hillary Clinton in particular. I don’t see her or any of hers going into plumbing; what I do see is her and her fat-cat friends castigating successful plumbers as ‘the rich’ and trying to tax them back into the poorhouse.

The problem is that the Democrat base is chock full 0′ people on welfare who’ve never done an honest day’s work in their lives and have no plans to do so. In order to preserve that base they have to confiscate as much money from working people as they can get away with in order to buy the votes of the slackers. That’s just the way it is. The Democrats are no longer the party of the working man trying to get a fair shake; they’re the party of the parasite trying to leech off the body politic, and have been ever since Lyndon Johnson. I don’t see that changing any time soon, and I therefore substantially discount (into negative numbers) any pronouncements by Democrat politicians on the subject.

Talk is cheap, Hillary. You want to walk the walk, come out for some significant tax cuts.

The problem with lawyers suing everybody is that when they win then the next person will pay up without actually having to do through the process.
