Of course. If smart minds thought alike from both sides, America would not worry about losing her value of being one of the big economic powers, downgrading in credit ratings, losing constitutional rights, all those goodies our founders gave us.

We are witnessing Obama's transformation. Lenin was all about power to the working people and wealth redistribution too.

In the end, Lenin was a ruthless dictator and the people were mired in poverty and hopelessness.

Obama speaks more like a ruler by the day.

It's the fallacy of leftist thinking. They believe that with enough laws and a huge government to impose them, everybody will do the right thing. Of course, the right thing has to be defined by them. It's the opposite of freedom.

I'll bet you got mad all over when you reread this reply before you posted it.  You were suggesting that the left thinks that enough laws and bigger government to impose them would make everyone "do the right thing"?  And the right thing as far as they are concerned is related to what?  A hike thru Hades?

Well, the left's idea of the "right" thing could fill a book, and they would never stop writing new laws to keep us in line.

Lets just call it the false Utopian vision, that will never come to be.

So true.
Sadly libs core values are malleable, they change with the emotion of the moment.
One moment the First Amendment is written in stone, until the Right states facts that contradict their ideals, then suddenly the First is just a suggestion by old white guys that created the Amendment process so children in the future could rewrite the rules.

It's not that I hate libs, I just can't stand ignorant kids.

A lot of them aren't kids.

Hell, if for no other reason, we need a republican in office just so the left can remember what the constitution is. They love it when it fits their agenda. Most important document in the world.

Bit by bit theyre trying to rip apart our constitution, such as the right to bear arms.

In truth, they are all children. When one fails to matures into adulthood and accept responsibility for their own life, they remain forever children.
That is what I meant when referring to them as kids, the majority of the base are actual kids, the rest are pissed off adults angry at themselves for the abject failure their life has become.
So what better way to justify their very own existence than to strike back at those that made them feel inadequate.
Misery loves company and the Dim party finds solace in what they do.

True, but it damned sure doesn't make them not dangerous.
