Brazen.  Unashamed. Selfish. Proud, even, of Bernie supporter, Erin Billbray, of the absolute willingness to take the hard earned money from those that they are now targeting.  I just watched this clip from Fox Business Network anchor Stuart Varney interview this thief and just couldn’t believe the absolute ease of how the phrase “redistributing the income in this country” rolled off her lips.  She makes Varney’s point of “taking it off me” for him – unabashedly and not a whit of regret:

“I really believe in his vision for the working class, expanding the middle class, and redistributing the income in this country,” proclaimed Bilbray, who has committed to supporting Sanders at the convention.

This is technically slavery – making others work for you and your desires and wants for free.  These Communists / Socialists (yes, it is all about “From each according to his ability, to each according to his need”) are all about destroying the Right to Private Property.  This is a pillar of maximal individual Liberty – destroy that idea and freedom will die.  Why?

What is it about the top  Leadership in the NH GOP (and her and elected / candidate Politicians (and here, here, here and here))…

Sidenote from that last link:  Rogue Republicans ™ that have abandoned pretty much every Plank in the Republican Platform. Not limited but MORE government, not less but MORE taxes, not being able to be left alone but MORE intrusiveness, not less but MORE debt for our kids to pay off, and not more but LESS choice. And we can thank NH State Senator Jeb Bradley, NH State Senator Nancy Stiles, NH State Senator Chuck Morse, and NH State Senator Bob Odell. And their cohorts NH State Senator Jeannie Forrester, NH State Senator David Boutin, and NH State Senator Jim Rausch for it.

…and following what they “SAY” they believe in (the Party Platform) – and then what they actually do after campaigning on its principles once they get their butts safely ensconsed in their NH political seats in either the NH House or Senate.  And especially on the case of the Democrat Agenda Item One – Obamacare and Obamacare’s Medicaid Expansion?

And now comes a scion of one of NH’s Political Royalty Families – NH Councilor Chris Sununu who now running for NH Governor.  Is he pledging fealty to what the Republican base has declared to the the NH Republican Principles?  Is he going to steadfastly be that granite cliff wall against the continuing march to socialism?  Is he determined to stand strong against increasing Democrat Welfare state that turns formerly strong independent citizens into waifs dependant on The State for their well being?

Umm, no.

RULE 1: “Power is not only what you have, but what the enemy thinks you have.” Power is derived from 2 main sources – money and people. “Have-Nots” must build power from flesh and blood. (These are two things of which there is a plentiful supply. Government and corporations always have a difficult time appealing to people, and usually do so almost exclusively with economic arguments.)

I’m gonna file this under Humor. There might be another Rule, but it escapes me right now.  Anyways, I once had a quick discussion with Corey Lewandowski – Trump’s campaign manager – about the rocket ride he was on.  I DID ask about, as being the campaign manager, how it was to be trying the manage The Donald (er, tongue in cheek).  I got the very answer I expected: with a slight chuckle, he said “No one manages Mr. Trump“.

Hmm, the national GOP seems to believe it does (reformatted, emphasis mine):

The Republican National Committee (RNC) thinks it has leverage to control GOP frontrunner Donald Trump’s messaging if he were to be the party’s nominee heading into the general election, according to Politico.

Hmm, that other Rule just keeps escaping me – what EVER could it be?  Oh well, back to the rest of the post:

Bernie would be Bernie Sanders, the Socialist Communist in Democrat wolf’s fur.  He of the “everything’s FREE in America” bent – until the bill comes due.  Given that he’s appealing to the economic and history idiots in the country, he’s gained a lot of traction especially when he wants a single payer healthcare system here in the US.  Yup, instead of you and I choosing for ourselves, he is going to haul butt in changing Obamacare by supercharging it to “Medicaid for all!”.  Has he ever tried to USE Medicaid?   Probably not but he ideological bent in forcing us all into will not relent as he wants us to adopt a Nordic style healthcare and holds it up all the time.

Problem is, they are moving away from that which he touts:

Sweden Is Upgrading to Private Healthcare

…Sweden’s insurance trade industry organization, Svensk Försäkring reports:

The number of private health care insurance policies has increased in recent years. In 2011 about 440,000 people had private health care insurance. Most of these people have their policy paid by their employer. Additionally, The Local recently reported that nearly “One in ten Swedes now has private health insurance,” with rising policy demand extending to half a million Swedes and growing throughout the 9.5 million living in the country.

Sure, Obama set the precedent by accepting illegal campaign donations and now is the news that his ideological sojourner, Bernie Sanders, is cutting corners and doing the same, proving that Socialists are just dandy with the phrase “laws are for little people” (reformatted, emphasis mine):

Feds Flag Thousands of Illegal Bernie Sanders Contributions

FEC sends second letter this month to Sanders campaign noting prohibited contributions

SECOND letter?  You mean this is not an original problem?  And Bernie continues to break the law?  To flout The Rule of Law that he has sworn to uphold?  And now is accused of the Obama crime?  Clean that shocked look off my face:

On those rare occasions when social movements inspire large segments of the public to become involved in politics, it is because some large, glaring injustice stirs our passions. But no one will become passionate about monitoring a thousandth of the daily activities of government. To propose that the general public voluntarily sacrifice large portions of their lives to the task of studying such tedious matters as the provisions of the latest farm bill, all so that each can have a microscopic chance of improving a microscopic fraction of government policies, is at least as utopian as proposing that we all simply agree henceforth to work selflessly for the good of society.

It is HARD to keep up with proposed legislation and regulation and harder STILL to go back and ask “Did it do what it was supposed to do?  Did it do it WITHOUT evil unintended consequences?  And did it stay within budget”?  Rarely is the answer to these is yes and I could probably say no to all three and be right 90% of the time – but that would be trite.
