[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Proof that libs can and will destroy everything they touch.

Y’all got us here. [/quote]
Exactly.[/quote]

How? Libs gave you Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid, a social safety net, 40 hour work week, the greatest universities in the world that every brilliant person across the world used to want to attend, housing, the best economies, etc.

So, how did we destroy everything? [/quote]

Those were [i]classical[/i] liberals. Not the same movement as the leftist progressives that have taken over today.

JFK was a classical liberal. Today he would be run out of the Democrat Party. Allen Dershowitz is a classical liberal. Most progressives here would cheer news of his murder. [/quote]

I agree, very little of what would have been in JFK's platform made it into Obama's agenda when they had a filibuster proof majority.  Though, even the classical liberals didn't really have their heart in it, they quickly drove a schism in the party rather than let labor run its course.  How did they think a fixed minimum wage was going to age well?

In the big storyline of the Democrat party around two hundred years old.  JFK was like 20 years at most, not even representative of how the party actually works.  The Jacksonian mudsill exploitation seems to be more par for the course with the Democrat party.[/quote]
