Actions still mean more than words
I must admit that I do laugh every time I hear modern day socialists refer to themselves as “progressives,” as if their alleged interest in so-called “progress” is supposed to demonstrate some sort of advanced intelligence or heightened enlightenment or unusually keen sense of awareness and compassion.
That's a tough sell for folks who still think the failed socialist principles of the past represent some kind of “progress” for our future, an idea that qualifies these folks for kinder-care, not national leadership.
Not all Democrats are self-styled “progressives” (socialists) of course, but all current leaders of the Democratic Party are, including Clinton, Reid, Kennedy, Kerry, Pelosi, Durbin, Dean, Murtha, Obama, and many more. A few Republicans qualify as “progressives” today, too: McCain, Hagel, Specter, Lugar, Chafee, and others.

Frankly, modern day socialists own and operate the American press too, from boardroom to anchor desk and everywhere in between. The current low approval ratings apply to the president, Congress, and the press. In fact, the unpopular president fares better in most polls than the even less popular Congress or press.
As a result, the average red-blooded American still stuck on truth, honor, freedom, liberty, and the capitalist American way, are left looking for the “none of the above” box on every election ballot and searching the Internet for the truth they can no longer find in lamestream headlines.
