[QUOTE=Canada;2562304]I am proud of both of you going to get professional help for your Pathological lying and personality disorders. It is a step in the right direction. Hopefully treatment will cure both of you so you can post some honest information on Biden failures.[/QUOTE]It will take years of intense, deep impact counseling and shock treatment to cure these misguided miscreants aka democrats. Years! A full frontal lobotomy is recommended.
[QUOTE=EihTooms;2562300]1) Hi Natty.
Race-baiting has been the first and favorite method of choice for Repub candidate presidential runs since Nixon and Lee Atwater created their Party's "Southern Strategy." It was fully embraced and exploited by every Repub candidate since Ford, from Reagan to Trump.
2) The greater metropolitan areas with different mayors around most big blue cities in big blue states are also likely to be Dems. I guarantee you it is a much harder job to be Mayor of Chicago than a Senator of Nebraska. Repubs being by nature deadbeats would not likely choose the former over the latter.
3) 18% of the country votes for some 52% of Congress. Outlaw gerrymandering, set the number of Senate seats by population instead of by square miles of empty space between State border lines, dump the racist origin Electoral College system and we would never see a Repub president, a Repub-controlled House or Senate or therefore a Great Repub Crash and Depression/Recession again. Then we can start getting things done with our tax dollars that the vast majority of Americans want done.
There is no reason for comparatively desolate states like the two Dakota territories to have FOUR Senators, TWICE as many votes in the Senate as a real state like California. Wyoming has only marginally more ordinary citizens living in that state as they have elected officials in the House and Senate! That is ridiculous even though some of those elected officials are occasionally Dems.[/QUOTE]Race pandering has been the first and favorite method of choice for Dem candidate presidential runs -- from Clinton talking black churches burning to running corporate approved characters like Barry and Camela.
[QUOTE=NattyBumpo;2562202]So what, Nancy Pelosi pissed in her panties on January 6 and to change her wet panties. That was about the only long-term permanent damage caused by these right-wing morons. [/QUOTE]The families of the slain police officers would surely take issue with that, irrespective of any political affiliation or your desire to see Pelosi suffer. And you are among these "right-wing morons" as you support their causes, the stolen election lies, their white victimization, their "they are coming in black helicopters to take our guns" nonsense, whining about socialism while enjoying their Social Security, Medicare, and student loans, etc. And above we see yet another laughable attempt to downplay the events of 1/6, a date that will remain infamous for at least as long as 9/11. This all proves you as with a head full of wingnut propaganda, are part of the team, and very much part of the problem. And it's a problem that most Americans want to continue to see disempowered at the national level.

They don't. They mediate between the interests in their territories. Wyoming and the Dakotas, to use your examples, have mineral resources, gas and oil, public lands, aquifiers probably -- commodities all more valuable to corporate interests than human resources, which are a replaceable hindrance to them, at best.

[b]RNC Chief to Say It Was 'Wrong' to Exploit Racial Conflict for Votes[/b]

[quote]It was called "the southern strategy," started under Richard M. Nixon in 1968, and described Republican efforts to use race as a wedge issue -- on matters such as desegregation and busing -- to appeal to white southern voters.
Ken Mehlman, the Republican National Committee chairman, this morning will tell the NAACP national convention in Milwaukee that it was wrong.
"By the '70s and into the '80s and '90s, the Democratic Party solidified its gains in the African American community, and we Republicans did not effectively reach out," Mehlman says in his prepared text. "Some Republicans gave up on winning the African American vote, looking the other way or trying to benefit politically from racial polarization. I am here today as the Republican chairman to tell you we were wrong."
[/quote]
Do a Google search and you'll find Nixon's campaign campaign strategist, Lee Atwater, admitting it as well. Reagan, Bush1, Bush2, Trump, they all followed that strategy. They had to unless they were going to run and try to win on their Party's actual consistent economic and foreign policy results. Lol. And they know there is no way they could ever do that.

It was here that the Repubs completely turned their backs on their historic commitment to Civil Rights and have never looked back. That's in spite of Bob Dole's speech at the '96 RNC where he told the bigots to hit the door claiming they were "the Party of Lincoln." Sounds good but that horse had long left the stable and his sentiments got him nowhere. And yes you are correct in that this strategy became most toxic in Trump reaching the crescendo on January 6th. And of course it continues, with the blacks and browns stole the election nonsense that no judge takes seriously, the "Democratic cities" race baiting when, as has been repeatedly demonstrated is largely reflective of the urban drug trade and gang warfare. Such goes back to the early 19th century in the US mostly with the Irish then the Italians in the 20's. Many born into poverty look for alternative ways to prosper and Caucasians have taken that road as well. There were no easy answers to these phenomenon back in the 1840's nor in the 20's, same as now though they give white bigots opportunities to race bait, just as the Irish and Italians were targeted in the past. And don't forget about the Jew baiters of which we've had a few here roaming about, and which represents the bottom of the food chain.
P.S. Here's another point that is continually ignored here, that according to an October 2020 DHS report, White Supremacists represent our deadliest domestic terrorist. Now that is one shithole that needs to be cleaned up. And in spite of all the posturing for ratings on Tucker Carlson Tonight, Antifa isn't even mentioned.

Don't try to teach history unless you know WTF you're talking about.
[QUOTE=Canada;2562678]This post proves no common sense and you can't fix stupid. The grandfathers who fought in World War II weren't anti America terrorists like antifa.[/QUOTE]The only people who believe that antifa are anti American are fascists.
Fascists hate democracy. Just like trump supporters (let's restrict the vote).
Fascists hate liberals. Just like trump supporters.
Fascists love totalitarian. Just like trump supporters.
Fascists love the wealthy. Just like trump supporters (trickle-down economics).
Fascists love the corporations. Just like trump supporters (trump 'tax cuts'.
Fascists love the military values. Just like trump supporters (don't rock the boat).
Fascists believe in one, all powerful cult-like leader. Just like trump supporters (duh).
Fascists love violence. Just like trump supporters (let's run over peaceful protesters like in Charlottesville).
Fascists love blaming others when things go wrong. Just like trump supporters (re: every trump speech).
Fascists hate intelligence. Just like trump supporters.
Fascists hate large cities. Just like trump supporters.
Fascists are misogynists. Just like trump supporters.
For some glaringly obvious reasons the leftist on this forum and in the corporate media prefer to talk about the racism of 60 to 70 years ago ignoring the fact that the Democrat Party was the party of Slavery and Jim Crow. Fine. I do not give a fuck.
But what bothers me and should concern all Americans, is the racist and totalitarian policies now endorsed and being implemented by todays Democrat Party and their lackeys.
Anybody remember Martin Luther King Jr's,"I have a Dream" speech? I do. Here is the most relevant part: "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character."
Yes, that is something worth remembering and defending. It is really a crime that this idea is now dead in the National Democratic Party. Dead! Because everything in the new radical, fascist Democratic Party is about race. And everyone, everything is now defined in this new world order by his or her race. The radical Democrats have a lovely word for it. (They always come up with fine sounding words to describe their despicable actions and ideologies.) They call it Equity. So down with Equality. Equality is racist. Up with Equity. And if you disagree with this, well you guessed it, you are branded a racist.
So, let's get real. Any of you leftist here want to defend Critical Race Theory (CRT) and the forced indoctrination of this modern left wing racism on innocent children (Black, White, Asian, Latino) in grade schools? Martin Luther King's dream of a colorblind society is dead in the Democratic Party. This is racism in America today.
And oh yeah, black lives do not matter in the USA unless some moron gets himself killed by a white cop while resisting arrest. The daily slaughter of black citizens in every major American city (all run by the Democratic Party Machine for the last 50 to 75 years) by black criminals; that is never mentioned in the Democratic Party and no Democrat Politician, black or white, gives a shit. That is racism in America today.
But go on boys, keep talking about those "racist" Republicans of 50 years ago. Or better yet, let's get back to Trump Trump Trump. Russia Russia Russia. That something you can handle.
