MATT VESPA, OPINION, BEHIND PAYWALL--IT'S AMERICA'S BIRTHDAY, SO WE'RE IN FOR A DELUGE OF LEFTIST DRIVEL







I’ve never seen a group of people so miserable. If the Left hates it here in America, they can leave, but they know they can’t because they're too lazy and stupid to do anything about it. So, living comfortably, they complain. If there’s nothing obvious to whine about, they find ways to be miserable. It’s a mental illness. Old-school Democrats were wrong, but

a) they didn’t have this level of anti-Americanism we see today,

b) you could talk to them, and

c) they were normal.

And in that sense, they would celebrate the Fourth of July without question. Not this group. MORE AT It's America's 250th Birthday, So We're in for a Deluge of Leftist Drivel
