What if the COUNTRY were like DU?


You know, where 80-percent are for Bernie?

And the only ones saying it isn't so are the people counting votes -- pollsters and the descendants of Diebold and the Urosevich brothers?

Just a thought, seeing how all of a sudden there are so many posts "concerned" about DUers who are concerned about their votes actually being, you know, "counted."

That is a scary thought.

I was thinking mid-1930s USSR - Gulags still gaining speed, selective government-caused famines (Kansas & Nebraska?), a bit of ethnic cleansing (Volga Germans ---> US Jews). Yeppers, a real dystopian paradise!

Liberal thinking is a two-legged stool and magical thinking is one of the legs, the other is a combination of self-loating and misanthropy.  To understand it, you would have to be able to sit on that stool while juggling two elephants, an anvil and a fragmentation grenade, sans pin.

Excellent point!
Also,
Child pornography would be fully legalized, while quoting the Bible in public (Including at a worship service, assuming those haven't been outlawed yet by the time the DUmmies were done) would be a felony.
Tobacco, salt, sugar, corn syrup, and any non- vegan foods would be illegal, yet marijuana, cocaine, PCP, LSD, crystal meth, and God knows how many other drugs would all be fully legal.

If the country was like DU I would mine my 40 acres and its Mule.  As it is, I have to burn powder to shy them away.

“The national budget must be balanced. The public debt must be reduced; the arrogance of the authorities must be moderated and controlled. Payments to foreign governments must be reduced, if the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”
