The Socialist-Democrat Gravy Train

The Dogs Have It! m/r

Bernie Sets the Pace :: SteynOnline

by Mark Steyn  Hannity on Fox News  

On Wednesday night, I swung by Sean Hannity's show to discuss the Democrat debate, in which four out of the five candidates were anxious not to be outpaced by Bernie Sanders on the socialist-gravy-train-for-all front. As reported by Breitbart News:
Steyn stated, "The whole rationale for Joe Biden getting in is that Bernie Sanders is too far to the left. On that stage last night, with the exception of Jim Webb, everyone was too far to the left. The idea that this is a party of Scoop Jackson Democrats who need to... rein in the craziness of Bernie Sanders: They're all ready to join him, all of them are ready to join him on the socialist ledge...'

Steyn continued, 'Back when Bernie took his honeymoon in the Soviet Union, that would be considered an unusual quirk, even for a Democrat to do. By the time he announced — it was brought up by Anderson Cooper last night, the oddball was Jim Webb, who when Bernie was honeymooning in the Soviet Union, Jim Webb was taking Vietcong bullets over in the jungles of southeast Asia. That seems far weirder to the Democrat base than Bernie's honeymoon in the Soviet Union. ... They've bet that there are now — that every year, people who believe in the old Constitution and the founding fathers, they die off, and these young millennials who agree with him on Denmark and Sweden and Norway go to the polls.'
