It's part of your "I'm the toughest asshole in the world" attitude. What is unproven Fat Boy? You can't document your PhD can you? Here is an interesting quote: "...significant insights into Mr. Bryant, who is, incidentally, NOT a professor of anything. He is not an associate professor. He is simply an instructor at Weber..." Generally one with a PhD would not be merely an 'instructor' would they? Curious... |

From: (UJ)
Rich socialists have been throwing away their money for years. Ever heard of the Rockefeller Foundation? Wow. The Rockefeller's are socialists? Boggling! Call the newspapers. It makes perfect sense to call Democrats socialists.There is a group in the US Congress called the Progressive Caucus.Here is a list of their 54 members, overwhelmingly if not entirely comprised of Democrats: http://bernie.house.gov/pc/members.asp . Presidential candidate and Progressive Caucus Co-Chair Dennis Kucinich is at the top of the list. So what, you ask? Well, the Progressive Caucus has close ties to the Democratic Socialists Of America http://www.dsausa.org/dsa.html . As far as I know, there is no organization called the Republican Nazis Of America, so your Democrat/Socialist = Republican/Nazi comparison is way off target. So, because a small number of Democrats belong to the Democratic Socialists, all Dems are socialist? Gee, that reasoning seems suspect. And when I check your dsasa.org site I don't see anyplace where it says that everyone in the Progressive caucus is under their wing. I don't mean to be insulting, but you're going to need better evidence than this specious connection to prove that all Dems should automatically be labeled socialists. That rhetoric is ridiculous.

This foundation may well be a very lucrative write off for another branch of the family's business. They lose nothing with this 'generosity'. mike |

MB This is a ridiculous argument, and I assume it's at least partly a joke. The "Democratic" in DSA of course has nothing to do with the Democratic Party, but is an adjective to distinguish the DSA from the various anti-democratic (i.e. pro-Soviet) socialist parties that have been around. The link you provide is that of Bernie Sanders, who as you doubtless know, is not a Democrat. By the way, you used "comprised" incorrectly. |
