And we all know the young have been given over to the state to raise and mold into the mindset of the left. The U.S. is going down as the only superpower and common sense tells you will be replaced either by China or an Islamic World Caliphate because the young have been taught to hate everything America stands for and reject all Jewish/Christian moral and ethical principles that require self control, sacrifice, and morality.<br /><br />ElaineAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-71304869702774798182014-10-21T11:24:00.450-04:002014-10-21T11:24:00.450-04:00The model for pajama boy was one of the two or thr...The model for pajama boy was one of the two or three faux intellectuals at MSNBC..as opposed to the outright morons that gather there.<br /><br />When I first saw him, I thought he was part of an SNL skit.<br /><br />Daniel, I think the Occupy movement was the beginning of the end, apparently their mothers never warned them that they would be judged by the company they kept..Their descent into feral behavior was mind blowingly quick.<br /><br />sophieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-4816319913466593352014-10-21T10:49:59.244-04:002014-10-21T10:49:59.244-04:00Since some people have misunderstood the article,

The welfare state ratchet has been turned left and locked into place. The twin towers of Obamacare and Medicaid expansion virtually guarantees that universal, taxpayer-funded health care is inevitable. Eligibility requirement thresholds for welfare programs have been lowered, and self-certification has become the norm. Housing assistance has been expanded and Obama's Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing and regionalism initiatives will accelerate that growth. <br /><br />Democrats have achieved welfare state nirvana--cradle to grave coverage of basic living expenses for a sizable segment of the population and provided by the courtesy of the ever-shrinking base of taxpayers and by deficit spending. Republicans can't compete with this.

Obama himself is viewed as incompetant, but most Americans seem to approve of his world-view. Even MItt Romney pointed this out during the 2012 election campaing. There has been a seismic upheaval in American values in the last generation. See Charles Murray's book "Coming Apart". Almost half of all American children are being born to single mothers. Not only will these children not have the benefit of having a stable father figure to guide them, but this will put even more pressure on Uncle Sam to increase the welfare handouts to help raise these these children who Mom will have a hard time with on her own.<br />Other traditional values that Americans and other Westerners have lived with for centuries and which I believe form the bedrock of civilization have been thrown in the junk heap...things such as Family, Sexual modesty and self-control, importance of education for future generations. Today we see glorification of violence in the media, support for terrorists like HAMAS , "understanding" for social pathologies and many others, which seem to be irreversible.<br /><br />Even if Obama falls, the malady is still there and apparently becoming even more virulent. I don't see grounds for optimism for the future of the US.Y.

This country will continue to veer left permanently. <br /><br />The Senate will remain under Democrat control due to low voter turnout, massive voter fraud, and forced demographic change (unrestricted immigration). The next President WILL be a Democrat. Whether it's Hillary or not is beside the point. <br /><br />This content of this article is nothing but wishful thinking.

Obama and De Blasio are really creatures of the Democratic one party machine cities and they have run America that way. Yes they are unpopular but the machines know they will be after they renege on all promises and grab the money. Their real business is hanging on when everyone knows they are incompetent and corrupt and they do that quite well. Decade after decade.<br /><br />Pajama boy isn't the face of the party right now but the actual pajama boy is the child of connected Democrats and he will hold onto his salary and perks. He will grow out of his androgynous looks and become a nasty fat insider with the ability to hire and fire. He's here and he won.
