Far left, alt-right, so who are your friends now?

Snark is a poor substitute for accuracy, bobabode. We are a left-leaning country and getting "lefter" all the time.

Hillary Clinton invoked what she called the “vital center” in a speech before the New York Historical Society this past weekend as the place where most Americans want their politicians to be.

But public opinion right now is actually tilted fairly leftward, according to an NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll also released this weekend.

“I think our country kind of moves in pendulum swings,” she was quoted as saying in an MSNBC story. “We go maybe a little bit too far in one way, and then we swing back. We are most comfortable when he have that balance in the vital center. And we are, I think, in need of getting back to that.”

The horrifying thing is that this is by choice by a technical margin. Germany didn't really choose it's fate, but went along anyway when AH became chancellor, then declared himself Fuhrer of the 3rd Reich as the sole person fit to serve that role as National Messiah.

I am lying to get a refund from Our Revolution and to descale myself from the 'coward' label.

Sounds like a personal problem, Raj. Mebbe you need to hop in your 'Vette and spend a weekend at your lake house in Tahoe?

You are the one with the grievances, not me. Besides, the Vette needs new rear tire$$ and will have to wait till the summer. It's dangerous to drive it on wet pavement. As to Tahoe, that's another story and a future resentment.

Why do you have to wait till next summer?

Get some new tires for it now.
