 GD> Fixed? I'm skeptical of any change. 

I'm probably wrong to say that they're "fixed," but I'm being optimistic. There are people who know how to calculate things, and there's only 2 smart ways to calculate the left's agenda: 1) you're evil and in on it, or 2) you're wise to it and you're against it.

That's why I often ask those guys "How does a Democrat victory help your bank account?" They play dumb about it, but there's an answer. I don't think they are this stupid; they're gaining something from this liberal nightmare that we're living in, but they're cowards and they don't want to explain how they gain financially from it.

 GD> the ability to understand or to even acknowledge how bad things are,
 GD> that are due to those policies of the left. If they only understood that

You're right, but I don't think the reason they can't acknowledge the left's failures is because they're dumb, but it's because they're players. They're trying to propagate us, because if they could convert us then that would fatten their paychecks somehow. Maybe it's the child tax credit, or maybe it's the foodstamps, I don't know, but something is making otherwise intelligent people fight for this asinine liberal agenda.

Jeff probably specializes in migrant legal services,
Al's probably in on the human trafficking,
Bjorn probably just enjoys seeing people lose their freedom like he did

They all gain a little something from promoting Democrats, while honest people lose things due to the promotion of Democrats.

 GD> They are convinced w/ global warming and green energy. 

Sometimes people have "sobering moments" in their life; it's when reality sets in after they had their heart set on something else. They might believe that crap now, but they'll snap out of it once they're not longer able to afford food.

 GD> Sweden is taking a different path and it is positive path which leads

I don't honestly know what's going on in Sweden but I get the idea that Bjorn wants us to warm up to socialism, and it don't sit well because freedom is only synonymous with capitalism.
