@anticsrocks, #39:

It is nice to be labeled a racist by you, Greggie.

Where did I label anyone a racist? Refer to post #12. I don’t think a vote for Romney suggests a person is racist. I think a vote for Romney suggests a person is gullible.

@joetote:

They have brainwashed half the population and are destroying us from within, with this President clearly following the hard left Socialist script. Damned Red People!!!

I’m going to disagree with you Joetote. It’s hard to say what the actual percentage of the population is that has jumped on the socialist bandwagon, but I hardly think it’s half.

Remember that a large percentage of the public have given up on voting because neither party reflects their views and can’t support the candidates or divisiveness of the elections. Another large percentage feels the same way but struggles to pick the least of two evils. (we call them the Independent voters.)

We have the fiscal & Constitutional conservatives of whatever party and independents that are reflected by the Tea Party who want smaller government and less government intrusion into their lives. (These should really be considered social moderates.) In 2010 they succeeded in electing Republicans who for the most part seemed to support their view, even though the MSM continues to tell us that they are “unelectable.” These are the candidates the Democrats and Establishment Republicans really fear because they will end business as usual.

The Republican party leadership has mostly been taken over by the global-capitalist “establishment” Republicans who support their own progressive-globalist agenda. They tend to only give lip-service to smaller government, and jumped on the fiscally irresponsible practice of pork-barrel projects. Both Bushes were of their ilk, and I fear Romney may be as well. They are the adversaries that the MSM and people like Richard Wheeler want to keep in control Republican party, so as to hedge their bets. They also tend to roll-over and “compromise” too heavily (and stupidly) to the far-left Democrats.

There are the Libertarians who tend to be capitalistic anarchists who don’t want government to interfere in anyway with business. While they do claim to support Constitutionalism with limited government, they are more concerned with free trade and no regulation whatsoever.

You then have the Democratic “compassion” voters who don’t really support socialism per se, but does want to government programs to help people who need it. These are what I consider the “heart on their sleeve” Democrats, who are pandered to and emotionally manipulated by their party (much like the “save the children/animals” commercials) to secure their votes. They tend to be more moderate in their views, (however, there are almost no Democratic politicians left who support a moderate view as the far-left has campaigned to stack congress with their socialist comrades).

Finally you have the Democratic-Socialists (who have taken over the Democratic party) who are joined by greedy, self-centered, entitlement sucking leeches. These are the hardcore and extremely vocal political socialists that are trying to “fundamentally transform” America into yet another failed socialist regime. They “poll” as roughly 30% of the population, however that is misleading as a large percentage of the population does not participate in political polling. If I had to estimate it, I’d say that their numbers are closer to between 1/7th to 1/6th of the population if that. But their in-your-face loudness and eagerness to jump in front of a microphone makes it “appear” that they are a much larger portion of society than they actually are.

@Ditto: Excellent analysis of the voting blocks out there. Hopefully your guesstimates about the last group is close or less.

Real racism is insisting on No Voter ID to vote BUT not only checking ID to enter but then slamming interns who take notes at lectures!
Yet that is what Eric Holder did!
http://dailycaller.com/2012/07/25/sources-eric-holder-scolded-capitol-hill-intern-for-taking-notes-during-lecture/
First this:

“They checked our IDs to make sure we were all interns,” the intern who spoke with TheDC said.

Then this:

Holder had just started speaking when he noticed a male intern who was standing on the side of the packed room beginning to take notes with a pen and paper.

“Holder is talking and then he sees some kid taking notes,” the intern, who asked to remain anonymous to protect his boss, said in a phone interview. “He [Holder] asks, ‘Oh, why are you taking notes? Are you from the Washington Post?’”

“He [the intern Holder scolded] is like, ‘no,’” the intern who spoke with TheDC recalls.

wow that’s another restriction, this ERIC HOLDER

@Greg: So your refusal to denounce the repugnant, racist remarks that do nothing more than to further divide our country is not an acceptance of them?

You always claim that Conservative silence on a subject means support, so back atcha.

By the way, you said:

What else can be concluded about people who can’t seem to figure out that Romney’s refusal to release his tax returns–even in the face of conservative advice that he do so–likely means he’s hiding something?

Do I really even need to list ALL the things Obama has refused to release???

Are you THAT dim?
.

@anticsrocks:

Do I really even need to list ALL the things Obama has refused to release???

I’d like to see the passport Obama used to get into Pakistan at a time when American citizen were prohibited to travel there.

So your refusal to denounce the repugnant, racist remarks that do nothing more than to further divide our country is not an acceptance of them?

Correct. I’m not responsible for what someone else says. And neither is Mitt Romney.

@another vet:

Another thing that discourages voters from participating is the negative advertising. Sadly I think that negative campaigns tend to favor Democrat candidates because their party hardliner supporters don’t seem to care how unethical, corrupt, immoral, or even criminal their candidates are, so long as they keep bringing home the bacon and/or further the socialist agenda, and because the progressive MSM generally gives them a pass. Republican’s are held to higher ethics however, by their party leaders, by their political opposition, by the MSM and by the voters. It is complete hypocrisy, but that’s often been the way it seems to work from the days of Boss Tweed and the Tammany Hall to modern day. The Democratic party leadership and their hardline supporters simply have no problem with corruption in their ranks because they have an “ends justifies the means” attitude.

Thank you Ditto, of course the old parable “The ends justifies the means” is courtesy of Karl Marx.

@Greg:

So your refusal to denounce the repugnant, racist remarks that do nothing more than to further divide our country is not an acceptance of them?

Correct. I’m not responsible for what someone else says. And neither is Mitt Romney.

Your racialist paranoia is so unbecoming Greg:

Mitt Romney would restore ‘Anglo-Saxon’ relations between Britain and America
Mitt Romney would restore “Anglo-Saxon” understanding to the special relationship between the US and Britain, and return Sir Winston Churchill’s bust to the White House, according to advisers.

Here is a worthy quote;

As the Republican presidential challenger accused Barack Obama of appeasing America’s enemies in his first foreign policy speech of the US general election campaign, advisers told The Daily Telegraph that he would abandon Mr Obama’s “Left-wing” coolness towards London.

In remarks that may prompt accusations of racial insensitivity, one suggested that Mr Romney was better placed to understand the depth of ties between the two countries than Mr Obama, whose father was from Africa.

“We are part of an Anglo-Saxon heritage, and he feels that the special relationship is special,” the adviser said of Mr Romney, adding: “The White House didn’t fully appreciate the shared history we have”.

@Ditto: The MSM gives the dems a pass big time. When someone does hold their feet to the fire, i.e. Fox or talk radio neither of which I watch or listen to (I do go to Fox’s web site for my news), they are deemed biased, right wing, and every other derogatory name they can think of.

Our educational system, or indoctrination system if you will, doesn’t help either. As a matter of fact, that’s where it starts. Having just gone back to school under the GI Bill to complete a degree, I can personally attest to that. One professor openly supported OWS and told his younger students who were working at say Walmart, that they needed to unionize. Another when talking about deficits, pointed out the the ones under the Bush’s and posted a graph to illustrate his point. No comments were made about those under Obama. The graph showed a balanced budget under Obama in 2012 and surpluses thereafter. He claimed no WMD was found in Iraq, which I had to correct him on. The best was another adult student who told me one of her professors told his class on day one that if they were Republicans or liked Ayn Ryn, they would not like his class. When he talked about Reagan’s assassination attempt, he had brainwashed the young kids so much they were cheering and commenting that someone should have put more bullets in him.

@Greg: Who said “you” were responsible?….At the same time, when someone states racist remarks or other, your refusal to stand up to that regardless of your political/ideological stance is not being a pacifist, it’s called being a coward…

@Ditto:
Hi ditto,

Although I can agree up to a point, I do in fact believe it to be 50% or more. While I areee with your premise, one must really look deeper at a few things here. Our children and especially the last generation are not even being taught the basic ideals this country was founded on and if they are taught it at all, it is followed up with the extreme vilification of those same ideals by their teachers and professors.

As far as for the “compassionate Democrats” or the Republican moderates or whatever, the main fact still remains perfectly clear. Barely 50% of the electorate even give a damn! They do not pay attention, and hell, won’t even get of their asses to vote! Then we have those that do vote. The facts are there in front of them. Yet they chose to ignore them.

Take our so called leader! Everything was there! I would not and could not vote for him based on his own words and actions. Hell, his book alone scared the hell out of me as to the future of our country under him and it is panning out as I thought it would.

An ill informed electorate is bad enough. Take one that is being fed open lies and propaganda from a corrupt government (and please, all who have seen me here know I blame all ilk of politicians, not just Dems) and in turn refuses to take one of their most sacred rights seriously, the right to vote, you get what you see now. All of this still adds up to one major point.

We the People are responsible for this fiasco! Unless the electorate suddenly decides to do their homework and actually do a basic thing as learn about who they are voting for this country as we knew it is done. Whether I like it or not, this is the one cold hard fact. The problem lies within! Within the heart and soul of every legal voting citizen. If as I see it now and the majority is still either going to stand with their hands out and believe the lies and false promises, if they are going to march lockstep to their leader’s words, refusing to even think about it for a moment the United States moment in history is over!

In a way, this isn’t about Socialism, Racism or whatever. ‘It is about the complete disregard for the laws of our land, the basic tenets this country was founded on and in my eyes and most of all a slap in the face to the men and women who over the years have spilled this blood and given their lives to makes us free!

As Skook said above, “The ends justifies the means” is courtesy of Karl Marx. This is as true as it gets. It is happening in front of our eyes and I for one am honestly afraid we don’t have much longer to stop the slide. The real question is are there enough American Voters willing to do the legwork to not only learn what the hell is going on but to actually act and vote!

I wish I could see this different Ditto, but at least at this moment, it looks bleak. Unless the silent majority actually makes an appearance this year and at the same time the brain dead lemmings suddenly open their eyes and even more so their minds to the reality around them, it is going to get worse. Again, one only has to look at the Gregs of the world or listen as I do to inane idiots who even now yell RACE! if they are reprimanded for being late to work every day (just one of many examples), or the millions of people who not only pay any taxes at all but in fact expect everything to be handed to them. The same greed and in turn despite of those who produce and earn combined with the entitlement mentality that it belongs to those who refuse to do squat has ruined many a civilization. This goes beyond Europe, the USSR, etc. History shows this going back to Rome for cripes sakes!

When I sit there and watch this President preaching to the millions out there who cannot see what he really is, I get scary chills. One only had to listen to the crowd on the day he came up with his “you didn’t build it” small business remark. The reaction of the crowd that in effect was applauding the confiscation of everything I and all hard working Americans have achieved was the telling indication of how bad things really are now. millions believe this and worse, they don’t understand that once they give up everything to “Government Benevolence” , they have in fact allowed a dictatorship to be established. Like it or not, that is the fact.

joetote
yes, and the propagande come from the MEDIA WHO SOLD THEIR SOUL TO THE AGENDA OF OBAMA,
AND FROM THE UNIONIZE TEACHERS WHO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF IGNORANT YOUNGS, UNDER THEIR INFLUENCE TO SELL AGAIN THE AGENDA OF THE UNIONS WHO HAVE TAKEN THE POWER AND DICTATE THEIR COMMUNIST WILL TO THEIR EMPLOYEES WHO OTHERWISE ARE NOT HIRED,
IF THEY THINK FOR THEMSELVES.
YES VERY DANGEROUS AND CLOSER AS EVER TO THE RUSSIAN COMMUNIST REGIME IN PLACE,
THE LAST DEMOCRATICALY ACTIONS TO REPEL THEM IS NOVEMBER, AND MITT ROMNEY MUST TAKE IT,
AND ANY CANDIDATES COULD HAVE DONE THE JOB OF DESENSITIZE THE THE YOUTH AND IGNORANT PEOPLE STILL FOLLOWING IT LIKE A NEW RELIGION FROM HELL, WITH A DESPICABLE ADORATION WHICH ONLY GOD DESERVE

@ilovebeeswarzone:
Bees,
Always remember. This predates Obama! I’m not calling the Red scare per say, but the tactics are the same in any pre-socialist country or dictatorship through history. The seeds for this were actually sown well be fore Kruschev’s famous we will bury you tirade. And if memory serves one of his (or another one of his cronies) also said we would be destroyed from within. False promises, telling the same lie over and over, open contempt for our laws and principles and open spite for our allies combined with open arms for this countries enemies are all evidence in this President’s actions. However, he is not the first! Political correctness, an unwillingness to speak or live by the truth, open violence as prescribed by the left wing radicals and so on. Ayres and his bunch from the sixties now have their proxy in place. A co-opted media willingly promotes the lie just as it was in the USSR and Germany. And on and on!

Either way, never forget this goes so much deeper and farther back and in the end it is still the PEOPLE that have allowed this to happen. The founding fathers have got to be turning over in their graves right now because this is an affront to everything they stood for.

joetote
you put your finger on a “WHY” IT’S HAPPENED AND IT BEEN BREWING BEFORE,
I think that the COMMUNIST HAS BEEN COMING THRU OPEN DOORS AND THE PEOPLE DID NOT OPPOSE
because they did not believe it was and would become a threat, you know how the tolerance is so high
that the MENTALITY OF ACCEPTING PEOPLE WITHOUT SCREENING THEIR INTENT AND AFFILIATION,
HAS PROVEN NEFARIOUS TO THE AMERICAS, NOBODY WILL DARE TO ASK ABOUT MORE PERSONAL THING WHEN THEY ALLOW FOREIGNERS TO LAND HERE, BECAUSE OF THE BELIEF THAT NOT THE FOREIGNERS BUT THE BORN CITIZEN WILL ADAPT TO THEM, WHICH IS an upside down way,
to depend and impose it to the tolerant citizen, until it’s so visibly, to late, you notice now
because they have begun to impose their agenda, and they have taken seat in the WHITE HOUSE ,some young have already been mindset BY PROPAGANDA to accept
the WORLD to live with them in this open arms AMERICA, they fail to see that their
choices of jobs are reduce, given to the other new people who would step on any one to take what they feel their right, and force the government which they have push to elect to make new rules for their religion to become with time, up front as to chase away the other one which the FOUNDERS used HER WISDOM TO DESIGNED THE MOST PERFECT CONSTITUTION TO STAND BY AND FOR THE AMERICAN FOR CENTURIES, now it is more than visible, it has become offensive for the , the REAL AMERICANS,
THE ONE, who believe in the LAWS OF THE LAND,
BUT THERE IS ONE CHANCE TO BRING REPARATION AND CLIMING UP THE MOUNTAIN,
that is NOVEMBER, A DECIDING SWEEP SO LARGE AS TO LEAVE NO DOUBT, WHO IS THE MAKER OF THIS AMERICA LAST WORD,
THE PEOPLE VOTING ALL FOR FREEDOM OF AMERICA THIS TIME, ONLY,
no matter their personal self, no matter who influence them,
this election belong to AMERICA FOR AMERICA ONLY.

We need to quit accepting the notion that it’s okay to be a mouth-breathing bigot if you’re brown colored. This is getting ridiculous. These people sound like Klansmen.

See? greg is such a demo-whore there is nothing the dems can do or say that he will criticize them for. He is a mindless drone.
It’s his type that helped hitler murder millions.

@Greg:

Greg by now you likely know that I’m Irish.
and that
I’m Roman Catholic
you’ve probably discerned my
… err … Republican sympathies …

So like many an Irish nationalist, if this were the 1930s and I heard something like this:

Mitt Romney would restore ‘Anglo-Saxon’ relations between Britain and America

I’d doubt I vote for Mitt Romney … ever …

But it is not the 1930s and something important something unmistakable happen thereafter. President Roosevelt and Prime Minister Churchill formed a powerful enduring democratic alliance that withstood what was likely the greatest evil of the 20th Century.

So when I read this:

Mitt Romney would restore “Anglo-Saxon” understanding to the special relationship between the US and Britain, and return Sir Winston Churchill’s bust to the White House, according to advisers

.

I wonder just what is so hard for an American to understand?

@Hard Right, #69:

I hear Mr. Romney’s international photo shoot is going well. It took him less than a day to offend Prime Minister Cameron and piss off the Mayor of London. Hopefully his trip won’t end with an incident in Israel and Poland declaring war on the United States.

Here is what ‘segment of the population” Louise should be focusing on – undoing the Liberal mess she and her Liberal buddies made over the last 50 years….Louise you had 50 years, you kept the Black community in Government slavery poverty solely for your own self interest and political career…you used them and they still vote for you…it’s a sad sad reality…how are you going to undo “your” mess???.

PSA to the Black Man… a bit long but it really puts things into perspective this guy is very honest – much more honest than Louise … Sadly, this video only got 161 views…

This woman sounds very familiar….

Prior to his election win….didn’t I hear Moochelle ramble on about being Ashamed of Her Country for the ‘first time in my [her] life….I am ashamed of my country…’

…..and this IMO, was said in order to add ‘fuel’ to those of the “white guilt’ mind set ??? In order to vote for the OFraud? ….Don’t fall for the white guilt trip….200 + years later whites don’t have a darn thing to be guilty over….heck many of us came form Eastern Europe for cryin’ out loud…

SHE is the problem….SHE and those who support her are the problem….Obama has nothing to run on….he has been a diaster to the United States of America….SHE is afraid of losing her power she is a Liberal and the Liberals have done more damage to the African American [black] community then they would ever stoop to admit…. Leave whitey out of this…

@Mike O’Malley, #70:

I think Anglo-American relations is probably what was meant.

@Greg: I hear Mr. Romney’s international photo shoot is going well. (I think he posed with the bust of Churchill that Dear Leader (PBUH)) sent back)It took him less than a day to offend Prime Minister Cameron and piss off the Mayor of London. (Yeah, it’s not like Dear Leader (PBUH) went around apologizing for the U.S., oh, wait, nevermind) Hopefully his trip won’t end with an incident in Israel (you mean the same Israel he’s never visited and insists that they do in their country as he dictates and uses every opportunity to bend over for the islamists bent on destroying Israel?) and Poland declaring war on the United States (I’m pretty sure Poland will be good to Romney and Romney will be good for Poland, say, did you happen so see the very nice statues the put up of Reagan and the Pope?). ….How’s that 214 rolling along…?

@Sua Sponte:

I think he posed with the bust of Churchill that Dear Leader (PBUH)) sent back

The last I heard, the bust was at the Washington residence of Sir Nigel Sheinwald, the British Ambassador to the United States. Maybe it was since returned to the UK.

Truth be told, it’s–uh–well–a very original rendition.

@Greg:

OK, and so you agree then that it was to that special relationship forged by FDR and Churchill during FDR’s undeclared naval war with the Nazis in 1939.

Now America’s relationship with Britain transcends WWII and even the Founding, of course. The most important aspects of that relationship drew upon the Anglo-Saxon ethnicity, culture and institutions in British Isles more so than say with the Scots, the Welch, the Ulster-men and the Irish. You and I Greg do speak Anglo-Saxon , not Gaelic, not French, not Norwegian, not Dutch nor German? The US courts are based upon Anglo-Saxon courts, not Celtic or Continental European courts. Our shared Common Law is Anglo-Saxon, not the Irish Brehan Law, not Cannon Law and not the Napoleonic Code (except in LA). And since the audience to whom Mitt Romney was speaking is say culturally Anglo-Saxon would one expect an effective speaker to chose terminology suited to his primary audience. Terminology which may well differ from what we are accustomed to at on this side of the Atlantic.

It is hard to find much if anything to object to in what Mitt Romney said.

Don’t worry about Romney insulting the PM. To make up for it, he is going to send him some DVD’s that aren’t suitable for play in that region and give the Queen an IPOD. Accompanying those gifts, will be an apology and just to show how smart he is, he will be giving it in the Austrian language.

Contrary to popular belief, this is not the bust in question. The one that was returned is the one up in #75, which I suspect Sir Winston himself might have ordered removed to some convenient closet.

Greg, happy to see you took my advice…I notice the prozac and polo mallet have kicked in….214?

ThunderGod
hi,
THOSE guys are on drugs, just by their words, and they think they are the smartest in AMERICA,
BECAUSE THEY SUCCEEDED TO FOOL THEIR PEOPLE TO VOTE FOR THEM.
HOPE THE PEOPLE GET THE DEMS OUT OF THERE, so the republicans and gops can pass their smart bills to bring jobs in AMERICA

You can call me whatever you want, even a racisit. I would rather have that title than a complete moronic idiot who would vote for a failed President like 0-bama. Not saying I am one, but thank God we live in a free country which allows me to say it!! At least for now!!

Common Sense
that’s what I like this FLOPPING ACES BLOG,
HERE THE CONSERVATIVES ARE SO NICE THEY EDUCATE THE IDIOTS BY
DEBUNKING THE LIES THEY ARE BEING TOLD BY OTHER IDIOTS WHO BELIEVE THE LIES THEY ARE BEING TOLD BY HIGHER RANKING IDIOTS HOLDING POWER, ALWAYS PROMISSING JOBS WILL COME IF THEY ARE RE-ELECTED.

@ilovebeeswarzone:
Bees!

Gotta luv ya! I couldn’t have said that any better myself!!!!!

geesch her wig is on too tight. I for one am getting really sick of these syncophants. doesn’t she know the race card has been stomped to death? My opinion now is that any congressmen and/or senator (SIC) that supports barry’s policies is a communist. November can’t come soon enough. ABO

@Disenchanted: As I originally said early on. Damned Red People!

@Greg: Via WhiteHouse.gov (27Jul12): Lately, there’s been a rumor swirling around about the current location of the bust of Winston Churchill. Some have claimed that President Obama removed the bust of Winston Churchill from the Oval Office and sent it back to the British Embassy. Now, normally we wouldn’t address a rumor that’s so patently false, but just this morning the Washington Post’s Charles Krauthammer repeated this ridiculous claim in his column. He said President Obama “started his Presidency by returning to the British Embassy the bust of Winston Churchill that had graced the Oval Office.”

This is 100% false. The bust still in the White House. In the Residence. Outside the Treaty Room.

Via Telegraph (2/14/2009): A bust of the former prime minister once voted the greatest Briton in history, which was loaned to George W Bush from the Government’s art collection after the September 11 attacks, has now been formally handed back. But the British Embassy in Washington has now confirmed that it sits in the palatial residence of ambassador Sir Nigel Sheinwald

And Romney would embarass himself?….Yet when the regime gets called to the carpet the first thing they run to is the “racism” card…..Pathetic is an understatement….

Sua Sponte
I remember reading that around 2010 maybe before,
that OBAMA SEND THE BUST OR PAINTING THAT WAS IN THE WHITE HOUSE AT ALMOST THE BEGINNING OF HIS TERM,
IT WAS SAID AS PROBABLY NOT A VERY NICE THING TO DO FOR KEEPING GOOD RELATION WITH ENGLAND BRITISH
BYE

@Sua Sponte, #86:

I’m not really sure whether the bust looks more like Winston Churchill or South Park’s Mr. Hanky. George W. apparently had no difficulty with this, having been told that it was by a famous artist. Romney says he’ll take it back. Has anyone offered it to him? It was only on loan for the duration of GWB’s stay to begin with. Obama declined an offered extension.

GREG
YES your link tell the story of OBAMA KENYAN GRAND FATHER KILLED WITH THOUSANDS MORE BY SOME DECISION FROM CHURCHILL TO STOP SOME MOB ATTACK IN KENYA.
SO THAT TELL US WHY HE WOULD GET RID OF IT WHEN HE HAD THE WHITE HOUSE REDESIGN MUSTARD COLOR.
something strange in that link is the discovery that OBAMA also
was birth link with CHURCHILL AND BUSH? AND OTHER PRESIDENTS TOO.????? IS THAT WHY HE CANNOT FIND HIS REAL BIRTH CERTIFICATE IN THE UNITED STATES?
TO MANY FOREIGNER ON THE BLOOD LINE?

@Greg: Apology accepted.
