Democrat success stories

Incredibly, from the U.K.’s left-wing Guardian, comes a photo essay of what happens when Democrats are given the opportunity to put their economic and political theories to work: welcome to the future….

I wouldn’t laugh too hard.
Who’s laughing?
These look like out-takes from Mel Gibson’s Mad Max “Road Warrior” series. This is post-holocaust, soon coming to a neighborhood near you.
Detroit’s also sitting pretty close to where Danny is.
Sort of like having a gallery seat at a nuclear explosion. If you look too long into the glare, the radiation will burn your eyes out.
The Left always thinks that influence and money will protect them from the chaos and class warfare they foment amongst the rest of us.
That may have worked rather well in other countries, where the government or para military groups could stock up on weapons to control the population. But this is America. Where are they going to get enough guns to protect them from the numerous individuals this nation has produced that can hit a man sized target at 2 kilometers?
A pictorial must for show n’ tell the next time a Democrat tries to spin reality. Detroit mayors since 1962, have all been Democrats. Collectively, they’ve managed to raze the city in less than 50 years without having to pick up an axe -they simply legislated it into destruction.
Live and vote by the big ‘D’ and crumble and die by the big ‘D’.
Such beautiful architecture–it hurts to see what happened to it.
Creation, preservation, and destruction–all necessary for civilization to thrive. But all they’ve mastered is destruction.
“D” stands for Democrat, Dispair, Decay, Depression…..
Deceitful, Deleterious, Denier….
I’m sorry you folks can’t see the racism that led to Detroit’s decay:
Where were you when The Man forced the city’s residents to burn their own neighborhoods in 1967?
Where were you when The Man forced gangs to start selling dope to their neighbors?
Where were you when The Man forced women to have bastard children and abortions?
Where were you when The Man forced students to drop out of school and disdain education?
Where were you when The Man forced residents to accept welfare?
Where were you when The Man forced residents to vote Democrat?
Or in the words of the famous rapper, Sadie:
Mo’town is less town, put on your high heeled sneakers and let’s get down
Tragic, simply tragic. Desolation, destruction and devastation such as this can only come about when something truly evil is at work.

It’s actually worse, the ‘evil’ collects a paycheck and pension.
Most people in America have conveniently forgotten the face of evil because they no longer have to deal with evil people. Society has become regimented so that certain classes of people, like Leos or bouncers, are supposed to deal with the human trash, while everyone else goes to the mall.
This has an interesting side effect on the public conscience.
SADIE - It’s even worse than actually worse…
” the ‘evil’ collects a paycheck and pension using our money!”
It’s a cancer. You are dying because your own body is destroying yourself.

Indeed. The current cost of defending the thieves, i.e., Franklin Raines, who walked away with $90 million et al, are also using taxpayer’s money to defend themselves. Currently, we are stuck with about $160 million in legal fees from the Fannie/Freddie debacle.
I am in a wait and see posture as to how much more will be spent defending the cesspool. I never expect any of them to actually ‘pay’ for their evil on any level. Even a hefty fine leveled on $90 million would only be a ‘ping’ in his pocket. The real wreck was leveled against people, who actual qualify and pay their mortgages.
So..in short, it’s gone from ‘trickle down economics to trillions down the tubes economics’.
The Left always believed it was government’s job to decide what wealth trickled down to where. That’s why the first thing they did was accuse the Republicans of using “trickle down economy”. They had to brand tax cuts as trickle down, so that their own real trickle down economics could be thought of as “prosperity”.
Let’s see what happens to Chicago. Chicago (city motto, “Where’s mine?”), too, is flat broke because of billions lost through featherbedding, union rapacity, patronage and other corruption.
Unfortunately, it can’t appeal to the State of Illinois, because the State of Illinois is flat broke.
Then again, it could appeal to the U.S. government to get a bail out, but Republicans control the Congressional purse strings and, ooops, Chicago and Illinois aren’t exactly on the good their good side.
That’s OK, our governor just doubled corporate and personal income taxes. That should fix the problem.
Although most people don’t know it, Indiana and Wisconsin are really nice states.
Danny – N.Y. State tried the same tactic, deluding themselves into believing that the increase would offset/improve or whatever ‘positive’ choice of words they employed. The only monetary increase the state saw was traffic exiting to New Jersey or Connecticut at the toll booths.
SADIE – I’ve seen Buffalo, recently..it reminds me a lot of Detroit. Very sad!
The worst thing about those places is the beaten-down, dependent and subservient-to-the-government attitude of the people. They seem helpless to help themselves. The Democrats have them exactly where they want them.
This is what happens when people don’t study military history, political history, religious history, or any other history, except the appointed Leftist dogma version of history.
Extra – extra, read all about it – or none of it. POTUS speech in link.

This is just a part of how we are shaping a world that favors peace and prosperity. With our European allies, we revitalized NATO, and increased our cooperation on everything from counter-terrorism to missile defense. We have reset our relationship with Russia, strengthened Asian alliances, and built new partnerships with nations like India. This March, I will travel to Brazil, Chile, and El Salvador to forge new alliances for progress in the Americas. Around the globe, we are standing with those who take responsibility – helping farmers grow more food; supporting doctors who care for the sick; and combating the corruption that can rot a society and rob people of opportunity.

I’m passing on SOTUS. My doctor says I have to get away from gas and hot air if I’m ever going to clear this catarrh.
Where to plant a pun for the day…
THIS IS THE PITS!
Kucinich, D-Ohio, bit into an olive pit in a sandwich wrap in April 2008, which he said led to “serious and permanent dental and oral injuries,” according to documents filed with the Superior Court of the District of Columbia.
He’s seeking $150,000 in damages, the court filing says.

Sadies excerpt of POTUS speech in 21:
> This March, I will travel to Brazil, Chile, and El Salvador to forge new alliances for progress in the Americas. Around the globe, we are standing with those who take responsibility
Thank God he’s not heading down there to “forge new alliances to discourage progress”
Or standing with those “who forsake responsibility”
Such meaningless boilerplate political pablum. Those words mean nothing! I’m glad I didn’t watch.
Obama should be careful about whom he stands with who are taking responsibility.
What if he runs into a group of men by the side of a road who are standing and yelling, “I am Spartacus!”
What if he runs into a group of men by the side of a road who are standing and yelling, “I am Spartacus!”
What if they’re yelling, “I am Punce DeLeon”
What if they’re yelling “Punce on de leon”!!!!
Cause he definitely thinks he’s de head leon of de pack…!
Interviewer: “Mr. Blanc, what does a person do when he kicks a ball in American football?”
Mel Blanc: “Punce.”
Interviewer: “Does he need special equipment for that?”
Mel Blanc: “Yes.”
Interviewer: “What?”
Mel Blanc: “Pance.”
Interviewer: “How would they pronounce that in Britian?”
Mel Blanc: “Ponce.”
Interviewer: “I see. How would they pay for them there?”
Mel Blanc: “Pence.”
Interviewer: “What happens if you nick the tip off a lobster’s claw? What would you call it?”
Mel Blanc: “Pince.”
The ‘corner’ is getting crowded.
You make me plotz!
On the outside chance someone needs a translation:
PLOTZ: To burst, to explode, “I can’t laugh anymore or I’ll “plotz.” To be aggravated beyond bearing.
The plotz thickens.
OUCH!!! I am being punbarded. What is this a – Punch & Jewdy Show
Sadiem Sadie, harried lady.
Ooops: Sadie, Sadie
Blame it on cabin fever. Winter came on like gang busters in early December. When it’s not shiver degrees, it snows. I’ve reached that stage of life when the temperature should mirror my age.
