If MSNBC continues to call Sen. Sanders "Democratic Socialist" then I'm going to have to insist

on calling ALL Republicans "Republican Socialists". The only thing that would make things correct in context. I wonder if Comcast gives them $100 Bonus every time they work the word into their spiel. Brian Williams and Chris Matthews seem to have some kind of side bet going on. Damn.

By the time the MSM is done, "socialism" will have as much barb to it as 'tall" or "mammalian."

I welcome it.
