Trippin’ on their way toward Utopia, by Jeffry Gardner

[Liberals] revel in the knowledge that their youthful incivility and lawlessness has today become an accepted practice of the left when it wants something it can’t get at the polls or in the courts. …

Anyway, Chicago’s summer of ’68 is the perfect date and place to begin charting the demise of civility in our political process. That fiasco set the stage for Florida 2000 and – well, what we’ll witness in the weeks ahead, I’m sure. …

[I]t’s today’s American liberals who have made [liberalism] a bad word. Today liberal appears to represent nothing but nihilistic division and hypocrisy.

Somebody throw cold water on Jeffry Gardner — he’s having a flashback.

It is interesting that Gardner so resents those who demonstrated at the Democratic Convention in 1968. There’s very good reason to believe those young people contributed to Nixon’s two elections — the law of unintended consequences being what it is.

While we’re remembering the ‘class’ of Dick Nixon, who can forget he resigned in shame? It’s the easy defeat of the extremist Goldwater and liberal rejoicing at the downfall of the criminal Nixon that has powered the Radical Right for decades (Cheney and Rumsfeld worked for Nixon, learning from the master).

Now, you have your revenge. Don’t bother going back in time to fight — you’ve won right here and now. Enjoy it, just as the rest of us will enjoy the steady swing of the pendulum. And maybe another shameful resignation! mjh
