117. "I'm a Democrat" . . . all my life, I've been proud to say that . . . no longer . . .
today, "I'm a Democrat" means nothing, because the Democratic Party under the DLC has become nothing more than Republican-lite . . . and not even all that lite . . .

what in the past was considered the "far right" is now the center . . .

what used to be the "center" is now considered liberal extremism . . .

and what used to be the worst kind of fascist/corporatist extremism is now the political philosophy of the United States government . . . with the Democrats in lock-step . . .

"I'm a Democrat?" . . . meaningless drivel . . .
