Happy to be on Pluto

I chuckled at your preposterous second-worst columnist’s lament that the national Democratic Party had reached Mercury closeness to the blazing sun of socialism, yet Arkansas Democrats were stuck on Pluto. I believe his party has shown its antiAmerican values.

If you want to trade freedom for servitude, it is your party. If you want anyone to enter our country any time and be treated with greater deference than citizens, it is your party. If you want the IRS and FBI mobilized to protect leftist wrongdoing while destroying constitutionalists, it is your party. If you want any attempt to make elections more honest stopped, it is your party. If you despise the appointment of judges who judge instead of legislate, it is your party. If you wish to replace liberty and property rights with communalism that always leads to tyranny, you want Brummett’s party. If you want to end up eating zoo animals and wiping with leaves like they do in the socialist utopia of Venezuela, join Ms. Ocasio-Cortez in being honest about being a democratic socialist. Practically every commie hellhole used to call itself the “Democratic People’s Republic,” which, reminiscent of the Holy Roman Empire, was neither democratic, nor a republic, nor of the people, who were always without freedom or opportunity under the oppression they suffered.

No, John, I believe the people of Arkansas, thank God, would rather be in Pluto’s orbit than soaring so close to the bright burning sun of socialism, where Democrats’ waxen wings will soon enough melt.
