Grover Norquist Roots For The Death of America's Greatest Generation
I'd add some commentary here, but the quote is so spiteful and full of bile, I'd probably only diminish it's effect. Mr. Norquist was asked if he thought the Democratic party was coming to an end:
"Yes, because in addition their demographic base is shrinking. Each year, 2 million people who fought in the Second World War and lived through the Great Depression die. This generation has been an exeception in American history, because it has defended anti-American policies. They voted for the creation of the welfare state and obligatory military service. They are the base of the Democratic Party. And they are dying. And, at the same time, all the time more Americans have stocks. That makes them defend the interests of business, because it is their own interest. Because of that, it's impossible to bring to the fore policies of social hate, of class warfare."
Why, oh why can't these people hurry up and die so we can have a one-party state?
