The Democrats Of The Present Are Nothing Like The Democrats Of Old

I think it's safe to say the Democrat party was taken over by far left wing nuts and socialists. The Democrats of today are nothing like your Mom's and Dad's Democrats. The leaders of the Democrat party, like Pelosi, Obama, Clinton, Dodd, Frank, etc., cannot be compared to leaders like JFK; the present day Liberals are nothing like JFK and are far to the left in their ideology.

There has been a lot of talk these last few years about the Republican party being hi-jacked by neocons - and that may be. But if that's the case, the Democratic party was most certainly hi-jacked by radical progressives.

I can remember a time (and I'm not that old), when the Democrats stood for the working man - or at least gave the impression that they were for the blue collar working man. They successfully crafted the image in the mind's of a lot of Americans as being the party representing the common man. That isn't the case today.

Today, the Democrat party is perceived as being elitist trolls. And they are. If you need an example, look no further than last year and how they treated an effing plumber, from Ohio, for expressing his views. Look no further than Nancy Pelosi - a progressive from San Fransisco, who pretends she is for the middle class, yet is completely out of touch with regular, every day working Americans. This woman used to take private jets from Washington to California, before she was exposed for being the hypocrite that she is, a few years ago. Need another example? Look at Barack and Michelle Obama. Talk about being out of touch with Americans - these two have their own chefs flown in from St. Louis for God's sake! There are many more examples of Michelle's and Barack's hypocritical ways, like talking about sacrifice while the two of them take separate jets to Copenhagen, costing the tax payers millions in the process - or ordering hundred dollar steaks - but you get the point.

Today's Democrat party are filled with hardcore progressives. Today's Democrat party are filled with hypocritical elitists - and they are nothing like the Dems of old. The new age Liberals who control the Democrat party are the worst of the lot, because they preach about social justice, while they sit in their million dollar mansions; they talk about diversity and tolerance, while they live in gated, almost exclusively white communities. The Liberals in control of the Democrat party today like to claim they represent the common man/working man, but they DO NOT. And the voters who continually vote these idiots into power are brain dead sheep.
