When the Dems had all the asylums around the nation shut down, and all the inmates rushed out to register as Democrats. That was the end of the beginning. Or the beginning of the end. Or something in between. Then, there was Korea (before my time) and Vietnam (still before my time, but I can remember some of it) and the Assassination Season (two Kennedys and a King). But, the core of the meltdown was when they shut the asylums down. When the former inmates started getting elected to congress, there was no turning back.

Agreed, when turgid had the inevitable runny shits who could have predicted the puddle of shit would run for president? Then not 40 years later another sentient turd would come along. Most shocking of all is how much you domestic terrorists love smearing the turds all over yourselves. Was that why y'all smeared your shit in the Capitol? Hoping to summon a new demagogue?

There's a global conspiracy, apparently, with green lizard men from outer space. I saw it on the intertubes so it must be true.

You have been misinformed and/or are making stuff up. While Reagan is to the left of many of today's Democrats, he was in no way a member of the Democrat side of The Party. It was really the Reagan administration which started the seasonal closing of the looney bins [salon.com] in 1981, legally undoing the Mental Health Systems Act of 1980 signed by Carter. Thereafter through the 1980s and 1990s it was also common practice to disperse the freshly released, mentally unsound by giving them one-way bus tickets to nearby cities, especially "blue" cities or even "blue" states [calmatters.org] where they promptly encamped on the street and lived for a little while eating from the trash and begging until succumbing to exposure, violence, drugs, or their illnesses. The closures and dispersals almost always happened during the early summer so as to best hide it from view.

You can't put that all at Nixon's door, no matter how you try. It started with a Dem administration, and was followed up by bleeding heart liberals who, rather than fix a broken system, just burned it down.

No, of course it's not Nixon. As stated, it's clearly due to the Reagan administration. See also your own quote above and note the fallout from the 1981 misdeeds.

Sorry, somehow typed Nixon, when I meant Raygun. But, yeah, like I pointed out, it started with the Kennedy administration.

So, which part of that first item did you fail to understand?
Democrats haven't changed much in the last 60 years. They vote federal intervention into every aspect of life, then fail to fund it, then blame it on Republicans when their dream world turns into a latrine.

AC was right, you are a partisan hack. I fully understand your point while you fail to understand anything beyond the GOP narrative. Thank god Rush Limbaugh is dead, but damage has been done.
Can conservatives break free of the fascist shackles they so wear so proudly while proclaiming they are the only real freedom lovers? Doesn't look good after 1/6, seems you're all committed to creating a theocratic state to erase all progress of the 20th century.

Peculiar thing is that the left is now arguing that we are going to be required to stand there and get killed. Self-defense should be illegal, around next Wednesday... right when this year's new riots start. The first shot's free!
Close the loony bins so the left doesn't feel like the only oddballs. There's sanity for you.
