Breaking: Media Might Still Be Leftist

MSNBC's new "Lean Forward" ad doubles as an ad for the Democratic Party.

Richard Wolffe -- once of Newsweek, now of MSNBC -- says the only reason one could oppose Susan Rice's nomination is racism.

CNN's Don Lemon says that any suggestion that Obama gave his coalition "gifts" is "just hatin' -- drinking the haterade.

Remarkable on that last one. Obama ran on a platform of deliverables, often in the form of cash, for his base but it's now "haterade" to note that.

I guess he ran on Big Picture Ideas, huh?

Obama runs on the politics of resentment and fear--

"Chains" and "You Didn't Build That!"--

and it's Romney who is the "divider".

15 Sometimes I feel like we will never be rid of these people. Even when he is out of office, they will all go on to be talking heads, critics, on and on. It will never end. They will run for office themselves, write books, teach, interfere with any successive government. Academics will study this administration and declare what a huge success it was, how it should be emulated by others. There will be petitions for him to be etched in to Mount Rushmore. JEF love is gonna be a cottage industry even after he is out of office. Its gonna be a long decade. And for that not to be true, something truly awful, catastrophic will have to happen to our country. I don't want that. I don't want it to burn.

Further, Powers is exxxtremely pissed off that Rice is receiving the poor-widdle-girl treatment. She pointed out that John Bolton took criticism and that if women hold the same positions as men and are treated the same, as in this case, then that is how it is supposed to be.

Even if they don't, themselves, take freebies. It's a variation of the 47% point Mitt made, but it's closer to reality, I think.

Without that skepticism, they will not be as open to the small government, constitutionally grounded arguments of conservatism.

Some of the hispanic comments that got airtime after the election were perfect soundbites for this perspective. "We believe in helping people." guy was played on a continuous loop in the news feeds I heard.

Hey, so do we.

Republicans lose in part because we don't know how to sell out ideas to skeptical liberals. We start making Ayn Randian arguments rather than tackle the emotional part first.

As a specific example, when we get attacked for backing big business, we usually fight back by talking about how big business creates jobs, growth, etc. So so stupid and wrong-headed.

(In this example, a better argument to start with is that it's Democrats, not Republicans, who protect big business at the expense of the rest of us, etc.)

This is why those that support the idea of killing the Republican Party have a leg to stand on.

255 The majority of Latin America fails to have any kind of social safety net. This is how Chavez, Morales and Ortega keep being reelected because its easy to buy poor votes with sacks of rice. That's no lie. It's how Humala was elected in Peru. Since the fall of the Soviet Union and the resulting reduction in US military aid some countries in Latin America have been exporting their poor, politically volatile populations permanently to the US. This mass migration has had a twofold benefit. The need for social spending is transferred to the US and the most politically restive population issues are also transferred to the US. So Latin America has a net benefit gain. Better economic and political stability. The US has a net benefit loss as we are forced to cope with the social spending and political upheaval control required to maintain our status quo. There are significant Latin American populations with an inclination towards conservatism if all stripes. Unfortunately those populations are the middle and upper classes in Lima, Manaus, Caracas and Santiago. Imagine the social and economic effects on Chile if we exported our inner city populations and associated societal costs to Santiago. It would not be pretty. Only solution to immigration is making the home country better so there is no incentive to leave.

260 re: "Do you think he really believes that, or is he just a rhetorical terrorist?"

It starts as a tactic, then it takes over your mind.

Do an experiment on yourself. Decide that you're going to tell yourself (don't say it out loud to anybody), every time you encounter any resistance from anybody about anything, that the reason They are against you is because you have one nostril bigger than the other and they're totally staring at it, or because even though you've never told anybody, They can just *tell* you're one eighth Japanese (doesn't matter if you are or not! decide!), or because you've made a lifestyle choice to wear golf shoes all the time, or whatever.

Just pick *something* and *decide* to explain other people's not being subject to your will in terms of it. Your glands and receptors will reward you, and very soon, you'll be crazy.

(If you want to do a more public experiment, you'll have to use "You're all racist!" or "It's because you're a Jesus-lovin' CRACKA!" or something, because you'll need external reinforcement, social rewards. But if you keep it to yourself, you can pick anything. The nostril one is fun.)

265 The race card is not maxed out, The race card will never be maxed out. It must be challenged and cut up.

Conservatives keep telling each other that the race card has been over-used and will no longer be effective. What that means is that it's got them completely whipped and they don't dare challenge it, so they'd rather pretend it will spontaneously cease to exist.

That way they don't have to confront that with the aid of the race card, more and more aggressively anti-White personnel get appointed to power positions, more and more anti-White rules are established, and more and more non-White immigrants are brought in, all fodder for the race preference machine from day one, and all implying more not less racial conflict and more effective use of the race card.

The "anti-racist" challenge has to be met. The race-baiters have to be counter-attacked as anti-White, which they are. (And which they can generally be proved to be with their anti-White statements.) Otherwise things will only get worse.

Geez, I've had to deal with Moby's posing as conservatives all week. They keep trotting out the "black" and "n" stuff.

I keep telling alla yez:

Democrats care more about skin color than any man alive in 1860.

271 Back to Palin.

It's the only option: female (and how!), TRULY "severe" conservative (oh wow!), hookupable to Marco Rubio (right now!).

Impossible to beat. Who knows the way out of the wilderness better than the one who actually visits the actual wilderness regularly, fully armed to the tits (and they're spec. tac. u. lar.!).

272 Interesting...
Yesterday, my husband was in a doctor's office, and I was reading the trash rag Time Magazine in the waiting room. It was the edition published just before the election.

I was stunned to see an ad on one of the pages that was from MSNBC with the tag line, "Lean Forward." There was some kind of language about Hope going Forward. One of their silly anchors (a blonde guy) was featured on the page. It was clearly an endorsement. I was stunned. I shouldn't be...
