Bloomberg/Bootyboy or Sanders/Gabbard? RobS De Plorabus Unum 20:56, 7 February 2020 (EST) Trump, Giuliani, and Bloomberg
The race for the future of America is shaping up to be a contest involving three men, two former New York mayors and a New York mogul, Donald Trump. Bloomberg is Giulianis hand picked successor. As a billionaire, Bloomberg blazed the trail for a greedy capitalist to buy his way into office and take over a major party. A third New York mayor, Bill De Blasio , tried bringing the Central Park jogger case back into the election to attack Trump. Now that Democrats have systematically excluded all black candidates and rigged the process for a rich white guy like Bloomberg to appear, it begs the question: If the Central Park jogger suspects were indeed framed and railroaded because of institutional racism, Why didnt Bloomberg do anything about it rather than leave it to DeBlasio? RobS De Plorabus Unum 19:08, 8 February 2020 (EST) Cant you use your imagination to present us with a more comforting shape? VargasMilan ( talk ) Saturday, 21:44, 8 February 2020 (EST) Since Democrats are hemorrhaging black voters, with all their other failures and shortcomings, screaming racist is all they got left.
RobS De Plorabus Unum 21:49, 9 February 2020 (EST) The boomers are getting old. Some age well mentally, but others havent. They rolled the dice with Mueller and Biden and came up with snake eyes twice. The root problem is the educational system has produced left leaning, global warming believing and identity politics ridden younger generation that is unfit to lead on the Democrat side. Conservative ( talk ) 23:05, 9 February 2020 (EST) The shape of our democracy is the issue that affects every other issue, -- Deep Thoughts by Pete Buttigieg. RobS De Plorabus Unum 23:37, 9 February 2020 (EST) Rob S is right; Biden is there to be a lightning rod so whatever new liberal presidential identity prevails, the candidate with the identity will have defeated BIDEN and not a different liberal identity group. VargasMilan ( talk ) Monday, 01:24, 10 February 2020 (EST) Were awaiting Mini Mike s leveraged buyout beginning in Nevada. From then on its a two-man race, Bernie v. Mini Mike, with cards stacked against Bernie. RobS De Plorabus Unum 02:31, 10 February 2020 (EST) Rob S, I found another Buttigieg Deep Thought: This election isnt just historic, its urgent. And tonight, we look forward knowing this is our one shot not just to end the era of Donald Trump, but to launch the era that must come next.
Join us as we turn the page to a new chapter in Americas story. (h/t @emzanotti) VargasMilan ( talk ) Wednesday, 18:38, 12 February 2020 (EST) We are the ones weve been waiting for. -- Barack Hussein Obama, RobS De Plorabus Unum 07:58, 14 February 2020 (EST) The Democrats: the party of science
Democrats are known for being on the cutting edge of medical technology such as vaccination safety assessments and the psychiatric sciences and doomed to be weighted down by the Luddite conservatives who can never keep up, notions they delight in employing to foster damaging stereotypes but somehow always backed by opinions stated in passing. Or if not that eventually found to be that what Andy has named liberal clap-trap—trappings of expertise clapped together, in these scientific cases like many others, to score leftist political goals, only to be abandoned as soon as its time for the goalposts to be moved again.
And somehow also they struggle for days with recording the voting preferences of 172,000 Iowans when there are probably worldwide Twitter polls that large conducted nightly of similar complexity without a hitch to determine the vital issue of the favorite haircut of the members of the leading K-pop groups.
VargasMilan ( talk ) Saturday, 22:57, 8 February 2020 (EST) Few personalities are more dear to Hollywood and to liberalism than Oprah. Michael Moore wanted her to run for president. See Oprah’s long history with junk science . She is the person most directly responsible for the anti-vaccine movement, although the media acts like its all Trumps fault. PeterKa ( talk ) 04:29, 9 February 2020 (EST) The Democrats are clearly not better at political science than the GOP. Since the end of the New Deal era the Republicans have been much more successful than the Democrats at winning presidential elections. [15] Conservative ( talk ) 07:44, 9 February 2020 (EST) I have very mixed emotions, then. I saw Oprah demonstrate the Neti pot (?, its about 3-4 inches long) a device that you insert deeply into each of your nostrils and squirt water into your sinuses to help clean them out. At the time I thought: this certainly would help the kind of sexual libertarians who would like to normalize placing foreign objects into parts of their bodies win arguments. It was also cited as an ancient medical device. So, again, it would help those would like to portray Christian morals as an island of ignorance between ancient and Eastern wisdom and modern-day science.
The only problem was, two users who took the advice to try it didnt clean their pots well enough and were killed by the growth of amoebas that came from the water and passed through the brain-blood barrier. I guess the behaviors and thinking that I mentioned that the usage tended to deliver up as advanced, newly-restored and desirable practices must not be dangerous—or someone involved in promoting the Neti pot would have noted the irony in the final results of the scoffing at Christian morals that may very well have preceded the use. Also the irony that those results, while they couldnt be a punishment from God, since he doesnt exist, somehow seem as if they wouldnt have been much different if He really did exist. A mystery of life. By that I mean the widely-broadcast guilt of the results from giving the advice in the context I mentioned, not necessarily from simply following the advice. VargasMilan ( talk ) Thursday, 14:18, 20 February 2020 (EST) American Sun states the obvious, and something doesnt add up
Peter Buttigieg came out of the closet at age 33. No partners from his past have done a single interview. He married a man, so is technically never going to have to interact with another gay man.
His voice.
#PeteIsntGay
@NewAtlantisSun
VargasMilan ( talk ) Sunday, 20:48, 9 February 2020 (EST) Its a little conspiratorial to think he is a straight guy posing as a gay. But the Twitter thread referred to above does present evidence to suggest that Buttigieg might be asexual. PeterKa ( talk ) 23:26, 9 February 2020 (EST) Liberal-critical Twitter is made for the lively hashing out of questions like that. There, detecting phoniness and manipulation is even more important than any conclusion you might eventually draw about particular issues. VargasMilan ( talk ) Monday, 01:03, 10 February 2020 (EST) ButtiJeb has no legs. RobS De Plorabus Unum 10:23, 10 February 2020 (EST) Called on the carpet
Lt. Col. Vindman, we meet at last.
In your position at the White House, you countermanded my Ukrainian policy and attempted to alter an official transcript made while I carried out Presidential duties in order to facilitate playing the informer on otherwise routine executive branch foreign dealings, spurring an months-long national impeachment crisis by a hostile Congress.
What do you have to say in your defense?
[silence]
As a result of these blantantly insubordinate actions I have no choice but to deal with you to the full extent of what the executive branch civil service bureaucracy allows and render this decision regarding your station in my adminstration.
..
REASSIGNED TO THE ARMY AT FULL MILITARY GRADE! AND NO BACK PAY!!
VargasMilan ( talk ) Monday, 01:03, 10 February 2020 (EST) In previous administrations, these head of state phone calls were treated as supersecret. Vindman must have told Ciaramella all about Trump-Zelensky call. Ciaramella was removed from the NSC after a previous phone call leak, so this was a major breach of trust. PeterKa ( talk ) 04:41, 10 February 2020 (EST) It was never a crisis. The Democrats had a weak case and Mitch McConnell and the Republicans control the Senate. In addition, Trump has a strong record to run on in 2020. It was never more than a tempest in a teapot. The only thing left to do is for Trump to keep building his ground game, keep building his campaign war chest and act more presidential for the suburban women. Invincibility lies in the defense; the possibility of victory in the attack. - Sun Tzu. Trump has both! Conservative ( talk ) 11:41, 10 February 2020 (EST) Trump has defanged the mainstream news organizations in terms of their credibility, but more of the damage was self-inflicted by these news organization upon themselves. So the fake impeachment was never going to do more than harm the Democrats.
It harmed Joe Biden most of all by giving more media attention to Hunter/Joe Bidens corruption. Conservative ( talk ) 12:30, 10 February 2020 (EST) The fake impeachment also rallied Trumps base, helped Trumps fundraising and didnt rally the Democratic base much. All in all Trump benefited from the impeachment. Conservative ( talk ) 12:33, 10 February 2020 (EST) The economy is doing so well, its the perfect time to clean house: Bigger than Vindman: Trump scrubs 70 Obama holdovers from NSC . I had no idea 70 people worked at NSC. PeterKa ( talk ) 14:07, 10 February 2020 (EST) What Obama did to the NSC is a case study in what he did to the FBI and the whole IC . Because it is impossible to fire civil servants, you simply double its size with your own cronies, then replace the attrition in the existing force (retirements, reassignments, etc) with your own cronies to create a governing consensus within the agency. A sort of bureaucratic meiosis . This is essentially the difference between big government liberals and small government conservatives and happens throughout government when Democrats are elected. RobS De Plorabus Unum 14:24, 10 February 2020 (EST) You also told us you read a user comment at a website that said when Mueller led the FBI, he insisted that FBI field commanders move to Washington D.
C. or retire early and accidentally lost the best who were smaller-town conservatives, didnt you? VargasMilan ( talk ) Tuesday, 08:28, 11 February 2020 (EST) Bloomberg/Buttigieg/Klobuchar/Sanders appear to be siphoning off the national support of Biden since 1/25/2020
Michael Bloomberg, Pete Buttigieg, Bernie Sanders and Amy Klobuchar appear to be fairly rapidly siphoning off the national support of Joe Biden since 1/25/2020 according to polling. [16] Biden/Bernie almost have equal support. And the trend is good for Bernie and bad for Biden. Conservative ( talk ) 23:47, 10 February 2020 (EST) Aimless Warbutcher moves up tonite, prolly run 3rd ahead of Warren and Biden. Biden was never a serious candidate. His alleged national polls was a name recognition poll. He was part of Deep State coup 2.0 . He joined the race four days after Zelenskys election. And, if youll recall, Rudy cancelled his May 9 trip to Ukraine after Biden entered the race. The coup plotters (via Alexander Vindman ) knew about Trump & Giulianis interest in Ukraine. So they set up Biden as the impeachment coup bait as an alleged political rival; but Giulianis initial trip to Ukraine was already scheduled before Bidens April 29 announcement.
Giuliani had to cancel the trip cause it was obvious then what the coup plotters were trying to do. Biden jumping into the race was intended to short circuit any investigation Giuliani would ask for. You see it again already. Firing and courtmartially Vindman for countermanding orders from the Commander-in-Chief and leaking classified national security information to Eric Ciaramella is being called an abuse of power and impeachable offense. The media promoted Biden in much the same way they now are trying to Stop Bernie. Now they drop Biden like a hot potato. Bloomberg is next up as the media darling who can beat Trump. There is a third factor or subtext at work here: the DNC does not like Iowa and NH going first and winnowing the field. But the primary schedule is worked out by agreement between the parties. So deliberately screwing up Iowa and NH is intended to outrage big city Democrats against rural white folks who traditionally vet the candidates first. This is part of a longer term agenda to revamp the primary process. RobS De Plorabus Unum 00:26, 11 February 2020 (EST) The Democrats/press thought Joe Biden could win. And he kept many moderates out of the race. But it was a Robert Mueller type situation.
Public speaking unveiled that Biden is not aging gracefully in terms of his mental sharpness. The are seniors in the their 90s who are still mentally sharp. But Biden didnt eat right and/or exercise enough which is pretty common for Americans. Japan has a significantly lower rate of dementia/Alzheimers disease than meat/diary eating America. Fish is brain food and countries that eat more fish see lower mental decline among seniors. If the pro-abortion Biden were a stronger Catholic maybe he would have eaten more fish on Fridays! Conservative ( talk ) 02:12, 11 February 2020 (EST) Just let me emphasize what Conservative is saying: remember that too many carbohydrates (without exercise) can cause mental decline too! VargasMilan ( talk ) Tuesday, 08:12, 11 February 2020 (EST) Trump was being polite by calling him Sleepy Joe - he looked medicated. RobS De Plorabus Unum 09:29, 11 February 2020 (EST) An aside regarding Bloomberg: the devalued Democratic brand doesnt stick to Bloomberg like the other Democratic candidates. For one thing he didnt have to raise his hand when asked if he supported free healthcare for illegal aliens. VargasMilan ( talk ) Tuesday, 10:07, 11 February 2020 (EST) We may as well fast forward to the end - Democrats have abandoned black voters.
There is not a single one remaining who can rally blacks. You can already see the Hillary Effect - apathy among blacks. By contrast, Trump now has a record and testimonials of accomplishment. The only thing bolstering Biden since last April were blacks. His support was cut in half since the impeachment vote. Not Sanders, Buttigieg, Bloomberg, Warren or Klobuchar can pick them up. RobS De Plorabus Unum 10:33, 11 February 2020 (EST) When something goes wrong, Bernie Sanders first impulse is to blame others for his mistakes, the degree of embarassment matched by the malice of his enemies or those whom we assumed to be his friends to serve as dazzle camouflage. That doesnt seem like a good leadership strategy. Klobuchar is rising to levels of popularity she has never reached before. The Democratic voters and supporters have successively tried out a number of candidates, having been dissatisfied each time. Klobuchar and Bloomberg have achieved a swell of popularity at the right timing of when the Democratic voters have to make a decision. Bloomberg could take a John Kerry approach and take the gloves off to beat on Trump, who seems a bit unfocused. VargasMilan ( talk ) Tuesday, 15:40, 11 February 2020 (EST) Its all being set up for Bloomberg; GOP very effectively played the race card today .
RobS De Plorabus Unum 16:21, 11 February 2020 (EST) If the Democratic establishment doesnt rally around a center-left candidate by Super Tuesday, Bernie Sanders is going to be the populist candidate who steamrolls the other candidates. Sanders is the Democrats Donald Trump except he is a leftist populist and not a right leaning populist. Michael Bloombergs comments about minority murderers in NYC and his stop and frisk policy is going to make him unpalatable to minorities in a general election. Amy Klobuchar is more appealing than Bloomberg, but she lacks the charisma, leadership presence and money to win against Bloombergs money and digital/general marketing team. Its over. Trumpslide 2020! Conservative ( talk ) 01:18, 12 February 2020 (EST) There is no center-left left in the Democrat party. Theyre all heel clicking, goosestepping Antifa thugs. Look at the facts: Democrats are looking to two non-Democrats to lead them - a Rino and a Socialist. And its highest elected leader tore up the Constitution on national TV. This is beyond a crisis of leadership. The socialist takeover began with election of Pelosi as Minority Leader in 2002; it was completed with the election of Obama and passage of Obamacare.
Now the name - socialist - the transitory phase to communism per Karl Marx, has simply come out of the closet. Chris Matthews admits that while Democrats nurtured this beast for decades to get their votes, they have known all along the violent nature of it. The GOPs role now is twofold: (1) continue educating people of the imminent threat; and (2) welcome former Democrat refugees with open arms. Forget ideological proselytizing, for now. No socialist would join the Republican camp, but only as a spy, subversive, and infiltrator. We must separate the wheat from the chaff, the goats from the sheep. RobS De Plorabus Unum 13:00, 12 February 2020 (EST) OMG! Im speechless, kneeling before the latest DNC Messiah. RobS De Plorabus Unum 14:48, 17 February 2020 (EST) Lol, no wonder they impeached him after he spoke to the Ukrainian president
Bidens son, Romneys son, Pelosis son, Kerrys son—are all on the board of directors for energy companies doing business in Ukraine. h/t @RealDonaldTrump/@harmks/@Conservative.Coalition VargasMilan ( talk ) Tuesday, 07:47, 11 February 2020 (EST) I double-checked these later this morning. It turns out theres no proof that Sen. Romneys son did, and Kerrys stepson stopped doing business with Bidens son Hunter shortly after he, and a mutual friend, joined Burisma after warning them not to, but thats all.
But a few months back I saw Speaker Pelosi and her son Paul Pelosi, Jr. appear and speak in a video commercial for Viscoil, which was actually a holding company, broadcast by a successor company NRGLab. The Epoch Times (the tweet is still up) also showed another video by the company (NRG Lab), which claimed it did business in the Ukraine. The journalist said Paul Pelosi, Jr. was an executive for that company and visited the Ukraine in 2017. But Pelosis spokesman said vaguely that Viscoil reorganized under a different name and denied Paul Pelosi had a role in that company. VargasMilan ( talk ) Tuesday, 09:21, 11 February 2020 (EST) VargasMilan ( talk ) Tuesday, 09:43, 11 February 2020 (EST) Heres the thing - Dont think for a minute that Biden-Ukraine was a unique situation. Its not. Congress routinely approves these foreign aid packages for which family and friends get kickbacks . The Clinton Foundation, McCain Institute, Obama Foundation, etc. etc. etc. are all examples. RobS De Plorabus Unum 09:36, 11 February 2020 (EST) Trump is willing to go on the attack more than most Republicans. Going on the attack against Joe/Hunter Biden was a smart move. The fake impeachment helped increase Trumps popularity and fundraising.
One of the criticisms I have about the Christian apologetics field is that they dont take the gloves off enough and go on the attack enough. For example, atheists commonly attack the Bibles passages on slavery, despite the fact that atheists are now engaging in more forced labor and slavery than Christian countries (See: Atheism and slavery ). I really like Francis Schaeffers taking the roof off method of apologetics which is a more aggressive form of Christian apologetics if taken to its fullest extent possible. The more comprehending we are as we take the roof off, the worse the man will feel if he rejects the Christian answer. - Francis Schaeffer Invincibility lies in the defense; the possibility of victory in the attack. - Sun Tzu . Right now, Biden supporters dont have a lot of roof over their head thanks in part due to Trump. Conservative ( talk ) 11:20, 11 February 2020 (EST) The perversion there is the notion that slavery started in the bible. In a limited sense, it did. Slavery originally was for payment of a debt, a notion related to the concept of justice and personal responsibility (unless you want thieves and murderers to run the planet). Racial slavery - i.e. a restriction of rights based upon birth or skin color is an entirely different concept.
In any event, grace redeems us from slavery. We are all debtors to sin and Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law. RobS De Plorabus Unum 11:28, 11 February 2020 (EST)
Trump understands branding more than most GOP politicians. And he takes measures to harm the oppositions brand. Hence, Jeb Bush was branded low energy Jeb Bush. Hillary was called Crooked Hillary.
Romney had tons of negative attacks that defined him. Yet his fear of the liberal press prevented him from really going on the attack against Obama. John McCain also didnt go on the attack enough against Obama. I dont like the dirty tricks tactics of Lee Atwater and Richard Nixon as they sometimes spread lies about their opponents or used dirty tricks (breaking into WaterGate building for Nixon), but at least Atwater was willing to go on the attack. You cant win a war if you are not willing to go on the attack! Conservative ( talk ) 11:45, 11 February 2020 (EST) I politely differ - I cant think of a single half truth Nixon or Atwater said about a Commucrat that wasnt true. RobS De Plorabus Unum 12:24, 11 February 2020 (EST) I might be wrong about Atwater spreading lies. The problem is that the people who said he lied about something are liars themselves.
But if I am not mistaken, Atwater did push polling in the form of fake surveys by so-called independent pollsters. He used this method as a form of getting out negative information about his opponents. Not sure this is true, but if true, then this would be unethical. But maybe he did this push polling in an ethical way. The Atwater push polling methodology issue is a matter hard to research. Conservative ( talk ) 13:30, 11 February 2020 (EST) Regarding Atwaters alleged deathbed confession: - I listened to the lengthy audio tape (of poor quality) made by (if I recall) editors from he Nation . No such confession occurred. It was a series of baited and loaded questions, then edited entirely out of context. Atwater simply made the point that Southerners who voted for Goldwater in 1964, and later, were patriots concerned about national security issues. Atwater was making the point that by 1980, Southerner perspectives on national security issues led the nation before the North, Midwest, and West adopted those priorities. Nothing more. From this interview, The Nation concocted a narrative that totally unrelated to its context. In the aftermath of 1980, Carter apologists behaved the same way as Hillary apologists did.
Reagan personally was too popular, so slanders were directed against his advisors (as they have against Roger Stone, Jerome Corsi, etc. etc.) with the tag of racism, of course. Atwater couldnt rebut the posthumous slanders, and there the story lies. RobS De Plorabus Unum 13:49, 11 February 2020 (EST) I just saw an interview with Lee Atwater and Larry King and he came across as a nice guy. I also read some more about Atwater. I think a lot of the attacks against Atwater are motivated by the fact that he helped Republicans win races. On the positive side, Atwater was a hard worker and his opponents describe him as relentless. Conservative ( talk ) 13:58, 11 February 2020 (EST) Awater claimed that in the 1964 election, Goldwater and the South didnt want involvement in Vietnam and took a hardline against the Soviet Union. By 1980, this perspective had a national consensus with the election of Reagan. Commie-libs twisted this to mean Atwater was a mover and shaker in the Democrats Southern Strategy conspiracy theory . RobS De Plorabus Unum 14:04, 11 February 2020 (EST) Atwater was very proud of the fact that Southern perspectives on foreign policy became a national consensus by 1980; Democrats twisted this to mean Southern perspectives on race became a national consensus by the election of Reagan.
Goldwaters statement, Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice was directed at the Soviet Union (witness LBJs Daisy commercial ); Al Franken and other as recently as 2016 twisted that to mean it was directed against the civil rights movement . RobS De Plorabus Unum 14:11, 11 February 2020 (EST)
The GOP strategist Ed Rollins said Atkins was a very hardworking guy, but he is used the word con man to describe Atwater because he claims Atwater faked his resume to get hired by Rollins. Ed Rollins was angry at Atwater because he claims Atwater doublecrossed him. After all is said and done, Atwater was a wily, smart, aggressive and bold guy who was very effective at winning political races, but it appears as if he cut ethical corners sometimes. Conservative ( talk ) 14:20, 11 February 2020 (EST) Personally, I dont believe that. Atwater I respect as much as Richard Viguerie. Rollins, whom I admire and respect very much, too, is a closet NeverTrumper. Roger Stone warned in 2016 that any money donated to Rollins Great America PAC didnt go to electing Trump at all. And I believe Stone. Rollins can be thanked for a whole string of RINOs, Christy Todd Whitman among the most visible. RobS De Plorabus Unum 14:27, 11 February 2020 (EST) This author at PowerLine Blog came to the same conclusion (with links to original audio.
So the central point that Atwater made in the interview was the exact opposite of the proposition for which liberals have endlessly quoted him. RobS De Plorabus Unum 15:01, 11 February 2020 (EST) Before Atwater the GOP was too wimpy in national campaigns and did not go on the attack enough. And then Trump, the counter puncher, took going on the attack to a whole new level. Given that the left/liberal leaning press is heavily in favor of the Democrats and are its attack dogs, it forces Republican candidates to be tougher and go on the attack more. On the whole, I dont think politicians and the government are scrutinized enough so staying positive and not criticizing your opponents, their actions and their positions is not healthy for politics. For example, I am glad that Bidens corruption was revealed by Trump. In addition, the U.S. government has been repeatedly misrepresenting their effectiveness in the Afghanistan War for almost two decades. [17] Conservative ( talk ) 15:25, 11 February 2020 (EST) This is an interesting article on Borking. Biden invented borking - using a public officials extensive record to destroy them. Since Buttigieg has a limited record, its hard to bork him, but Biden has become a victim of his own methods.
RobS De Plorabus Unum 15:50, 11 February 2020 (EST) Buttigieg, who doesnt have the name recognition of Joe Biden, is not going to be able to withstand the campaign money of Michael Bloomberg which could reach biblical proportions. Neither is Biden which is why is one of the reasons Biden is having a hard time with fundraising. This race is probably going to drag on and a contested convention in Milwaukee is probably going to be the net result which will result in a Trumpslide 2020 (see: Trumpslide 2020. Start celebrating now, but dont be complacent ). Conservative ( talk ) 18:23, 11 February 2020 (EST) One third of all delegates will be awarded on Super Tuesday {3 wks from now). Itll be a two-man race by then between Sanders and (fill in the blank, likely Bloomberg, Buttigieg. or Klobuchar). Warrens delegates will go to Sanders after tonite. Bidens delegates are up for grabs after tonite, which is why Bloomberg is getting in. Yang, Steyer, Gabbard and the rest are finished after tonite, although Gabbard may linger as a protest vote for awhile. Eventually shell get on the Sanders train as a possible VP pick competing with Buttigieg and Klobuchar. RobS De Plorabus Unum 18:37, 11 February 2020 (EST) Sanders wins New Hampshire
Before Iowa, just a couple of weeks back, Joe Biden was the Democratic frontrunner.
In New Hampshire, Electable Joe came in fifth. Things didnt go much better for Warren, also a former frontrunner. She came in fourth. Together, the medias two favorite candidates got less than 18 percent of the vote. Is everyone looking forward to the coming battle between Bernie Sanders and Michael Bloomberg for the soul of the Democratic Party? Its hard to see either one as a threat to Trump. This has got to be the partys worst week since Appomattox. PeterKa ( talk ) 05:49, 12 February 2020 (EST) Amy Klobuchar is a long shot, but she still may win the Democratic presidential nomination. It may depend on Michael Bloomberg recognizing he isnt going to get enough racial minority support to win in 2020 and dropping out. It comes down to intelligence vs. ego with Michael Bloomberg. If intelligence prevails, he will drop out. Personally, I think Bloomsbergs ego is going to win this fight and he will not drop out soon. By the time he drops out, he will have created more dissension in an already divided party. Conservative ( talk ) 12:11, 12 February 2020 (EST) Pete Buttigieg did well. Lots of Fox News Channel types are saying he cant win, but many of them said the same thing about Barack Obama in 2008.
-- Andy Schlafly ( talk ) 12:13, 12 February 2020 (EST) Trump will put pressure on Fox News and they will start being attack dogs who attack Pete Buttigieg. Even his fellow homosexuals doubt Buttigieg can win. Los Angeles Times : Gay voters take pride in Pete Buttigieg’s candidacy, but many question whether he can win. [18] On top of this, while wimpy McCain and wimpy Romney did not attack Obamas leftist past, Trump is not going to be reluctant in pointing out how left leaning Pete Buttigieg is. Conservative ( talk ) 12:24, 12 February 2020 (EST) Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations: spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes; - Is 54:2. The Socialist take over of the DNC is complete. Time for the GOP to welcome Democrat refugees with a open arms. This change is permanent. Democrats must rely on the votes of dead people, illegal immigrants, and felons. Republicans must learn to form coalitions with people they never imagined they would. RobS De Plorabus Unum 12:38, 12 February 2020 (EST)
Here is the difficult part. If Trump attacks an upcoming opponent, it could stoke Democratic support for the opponent and Trumps team may recognize this.
Maybe the reason why Amy Klobuchar doesnt have a Trump nickname yet is because she is the biggest threat. But the lack of a Trump nickname for Klobuchar is probably because he doesnt see her as a threat yet. In addition, Trump doesnt want to get the suburban women mad at him. Also, Klobuchar comes across nice with her Minnesota niceness , so voters could see a Trump attack against her as being akin to a Rottweiler attacking a Yorkshire Terrier. Also, Klobuchar is more feminine than Warren so attacking her is going to get more blowback. Despite the growth of feminism in the USA, people still dont like men attacking women.
Also, if Trump says nice things about a potential opponent, this could cause Democrats to dislike that person.
This is definitely 3D political chess! Conservative ( talk ) 12:49, 12 February 2020 (EST) RobS, the socialist takeover of the Democratic Party is not permanent. Losing election after election has a sobering effect on political parties. The long term solution in defeating socialism in the USA is to offer more school/education choice and starve public schools and universities of cash. The root cause of socialism in the USA is the educational system. The Trump administration will need political will and one more conservative SCOTUS judge in order to make big changes in the educational system.
In addition, in order to reduce socialism in the USA, the Trump administration should increase the ease of doing business in the USA so there is more small business growth. The 2007/2008 financial crises accelerated the growth of socialism in the USA. The USA needs to have people be better able to stand on their own two feet and have more opportunity. More school choice would raise the quality of education and help people become more independent. So would making it easier for people to start businesses. Conservative ( talk ) 13:18, 12 February 2020 (EST) Snow woman . Klobuchar looks like a real heavyweight threat, even as VP. RobS De Plorabus Unum 13:21, 12 February 2020 (EST) I think Amy Klobuchars Minnesota accent is too thick for her to win the Democratic primary. Walter Mondale did not have such a thick Minnesota accent. In addition, she is more feminine than Hillary/Warren and I dont think America is ready for a feminine president. Also, the Democrats want a fighter in the ring with Trump the political brawler and she doesnt fit the bill. But after all is said and done, Klobuchar is the most likeable Democratic candidate and likeability is important in politics. I think Klobuchar is the biggest threat right now because Michael Bloombergs NYC police stop and frisk policy and his quotes about it are coming out.
And Bloomberg cant win without racial minority support. Conservative ( talk ) 13:32, 12 February 2020 (EST) Amy Klobuchar being the biggest threat to Donald Trump = Trumpslide 2020. Conservative ( talk ) 13:33, 12 February 2020 (EST) Larry Nichols explains the difficulty in running against Commucrats: [19] Youve got one candidate saying, If you vote for me Im gonna give you $5,000 reparation or $25,000 for a family of four. Now if youre a black person and you say, I dont believe they really can do that. It doesnt make sense, that they can do that. But you know what, I gotta see. You know, its a shot. We gotta take that. $25,000 can save some peoples lives, and you have got to at least try it.
Same thing with the colleges. Youve got families that have college-age students going into school running up huge debts or the families having to pay huge amounts of money for them to go to college. Yeah, and a candidate is sitting there saying if you vote for me I want to do away with all college cost. Its all three. Yeah. You know, if youre in that category, if somebody has kids going to college, yeah. You almost hope to see if theyll do it. So you have no fault then. Look at the other category.
If youre one of the people thats sitting there with a $1500 or fifty to a hundred thousand dollar college loan debt, and somebody says, I want to wipe it out, well once again you may not believe it, you may not think its true, but youre boxed in because you kind of got to see, you know, its worth a shot. RobS De Plorabus Unum 13:39, 12 February 2020 (EST) I realize it is harder to fight against socialists post 2007/2008 financial crises, but in some ways it is easier. Right-wing populism is growing in Europe/USA/Latin America/world. There has been more failures of big government such as France, Venezuela, etc. Conservative ( talk ) 13:45, 12 February 2020 (EST) Another reason it is harder to promote socialism now is that trust in media is lower now. Conservative ( talk ) 13:46, 12 February 2020 (EST)
Furthermore, now that Trump is making NATO nations pay more for their defense, it will be harder for center-left European governments to provide quality healthcare - especially with aging populations. Conservative ( talk ) 13:51, 12 February 2020 (EST) My point is, the same tired old arguments of free stuff v. individual responsibility isnt the message centrists and center-left Democrats are looking for.
We need to be accommodating. Even Chris Matthews expressed fear of violence and fear for his life in the face of Bernies fascist brigades. We need to adapt. RobS De Plorabus Unum 13:59, 12 February 2020 (EST) Our message can be simple: confidence and reality. Save the ideological stuff for later. We need to exude confidence in the future. It is the real hope fearful people are looking for. RobS De Plorabus Unum 14:04, 12 February 2020 (EST) Leadership (which includes having confidence and showing bona fide concern for your followers) and quality education are important in order to defeat socialism. Ethos , Pathos , and Logos are modes of persuasion used to convince audiences. They are also referred to as the three artistic proofs (Aristotle coined the terms), and are all represented by Greek words... Ethos or the ethical appeal, means to convince an audience of the author’s credibility or character... Pathos or the emotional appeal, means to persuade an audience by appealing to their emotions... Logos or the appeal to logic, means to convince an audience by use of logic or reason. [20] In order to convince people socialism is wrongheaded, using ethos , pathos and logos are all important.
And part of employing ethos to argue against socialism is telling people to accept responsibility for their lives. Conservative ( talk ) 14:14, 12 February 2020 (EST) Were talking to each other. We need to be talking to centrist Democrats. RobS De Plorabus Unum 14:26, 12 February 2020 (EST) Center-left Democrats are screwed at the presidential level in 2020 and probably 2024. AOC has a big social media presence and it will take awhile for the educational system to be reformed. Center-left Democrats should vote for conservative Republicans if they want more money in the pocketbook. And if they dont want social anarchy that doesnt even recognize that gender is not merely a social construct, but has a strong biological basis. And of course, desecularization and right-wing populism are very strong trends right now (see: Decline of the secular left ). Resistance is futile. Trade in your weak, center-left pony for a strong, right-wing, Christian horse! Conservative ( talk ) 17:19, 12 February 2020 (EST) Rumor is AOC faces a tough primary challenge (she won with total of 12,000 primary votes cast in district of 700,000) and has her eye on Schumers Senate seat. RobS De Plorabus Unum Donald Trump repeated the Senate rumor, so its getting a lot of circulation.
In 2019 only 10% of Democrats believed the economy was getting better. That suggests to me they are not good listeners to political arguments, and that the attitude of Democrats in Congress at the State of the Union are not unique. But the Democrats in Congress are in a position to know better, which, together with the impeachment remarks I saw, suggests to me that they are filled with lies. As an aside, I understand that Nancy Pelosi didnt introduce the president at the State of the Union with customary complementary words in addition to tearing up his speech. That doesnt bother me. When the Executive branch and the Legislative branch were chummy, it gave us globalism. People like Chris Matthews and Ruth Bader Ginsburg brought the socialist/communist Frankenstein into being to serve as leverage on the far left for their side (where a little bit of force in numbers causes a big torque), got to depend on it, it grew, and now it is threatening them. VargasMilan ( talk ) Wednesday, 18:08, 12 February 2020 (EST) White liberal socialists are learning the same thing blacks already know - Democrats give lip service to concerns, as long as they dont get too uppity and want change. Personally, I find the most despicable thing about this monster the Democrat establishment created is, they always knew the violent nature of the movement and that moderate Democrats were playing with dynamite by courting communist voters.

The Brexit political wave helped sweep Donald Trump into office. The next French and German national elections which will happen in 2017/2022 will move the political spectrum in the Western World to the right. Mike Pence /Donald Trump Jr. will ride these French/German political waves into the White House in 2024! Lets go surfin now. Everybodys learning how. Come on and safari with me! Conservative ( talk ) 18:22, 12 February 2020 (EST) Jan 30:— Every element of establishment power — from the Bank of England to the BBC, from the universities to the Church of England, from the civil service to the world of high finance — mobilized in the effort to kill Brexit. They failed. VargasMilan ( talk ) Thursday, 08:00, 13 February 2020 (EST) MPR and Klobzilla
We need to begin attaching to Bernie and his fascist supporters, effective immediately, at every opportunity to link Bernie and his violent supporters to Antifa, Bernie Bros , and the unhinged violence caused by Sanders and his brownshirt supporters over the past 3 years.
Also, wee should make light of Bloombergs racist views and agenda at every opportunity. RobS De Plorabus Unum 01:02, 13 February 2020 (EST) Feb 12:— Does anyone with a functioning frontal lobe disagree with this? By pursuing the wacky idea of having cops frisk kids in high-crime areas for minor offenses like turnstile jumping, Mayor Rudy Giuliani cut the murder rate from more than 2,000 per year to about 600.
No one thought it could possibly go any lower -- and then Bloomberg got murders down to an unfathomable 300 or so per year. Giuliani and Bloomberg did more for young minorities than all living Democrats combined. In New York City alone, at least 20,000 more black men are alive today than would be under the genius crime-fighting ideas of prior administrations (and The New York Times ). —Ann Coulter VargasMilan ( talk ) Thursday, 03:38, 13 February 2020 (EST) I have to admit Im a little depressed that Klobzilla was too big even for Talk:Main Page. VargasMilan ( talk ) Thursday, 07:01, 13 February 2020 (EST) Cmon now. We know this game. Democrats play stupid and ignorant, then suddenly they are sharp as a tack with facts. It doesnt matter. Were going forward with the plan. Trust the plan. RobS De Plorabus Unum 11:06, 13 February 2020 (EST) This has to be your most cryptic reply yet. Then again I dont rely on Rolling Stone magazine or website (MPR) to choose crime-fighting methods. Wed still be wondering what to do if it were up to them. VargasMilan ( talk ) Thursday, 18:08, 13 February 2020 (EST) Well see who carries New Yorks electoral votes in a Trump/Bloomberg matchup, Bloomberg who tossed Blacks in jail in a mass incarceration round up, or Trump who bailed them out with the First Step Act.
Either way, it is the Republicans (Trump and Bloomberg) who liberated Blacks from the Democrat plantation . RobS De Plorabus Unum 18:40, 13 February 2020 (EST) You said it was Biden who did that. VargasMilan ( talk ) Thursday, 20:53, 13 February 2020 (EST) Bloomberg stopped and frisked 500,000 minorities before it was ruled unconstitutional, and after Rudy only did 92,000 over the same amount of time. RobS De Plorabus Unum 23:56, 13 February 2020 (EST) I saw statistics that show that 95% of the gun perps and victims were minorities. Nationwide John Lott says its 59%. I understand stop, question and frisk got shortened to stop and frisk, and some instances became unconstitutional VargasMilan ( talk ) Friday, 02:02, 14 February 2020 (EST) Stop and frisk was an updated form of racial profiling. It was justified (as Bloomberg says) by disproportionately deploying police resources in high crime neighborhoods, i.e. minority neighborhoods. SCOTUS ruled a long time ago frisking without probable cause is ok as an officer safety issue. Stopping without probable cause can be a violation of a persons right to pursue happiness. Questioning is an investigation which requires probable cause. Most arrests resulted in marijuana charges, which was the point Louis Farrakhan made in his famous Thats a wicked woman comment (precursor of Trumps nasty woman); ReasonTV posted yesterday the point that Bloomberg once said he enjoyed marijuana, yet arrested hundreds of thousands of poor minority kids for possession of a blunt - which is exactly the same point Tulsi Gabbard made that destroyed Kamala Harriss campaign.
RobS De Plorabus Unum 09:02, 14 February 2020 (EST) Klobzilla has 7 delegates. Joe Biden merely has 6 delegates. Andrew Yang dropped out of the race. Senator Michael Bennet dropped out. Joe Walsh dropped out. John Delaney dropped out. Senator Cory Booker dropped out. Marianne Williamson dropped out. Julián Castro dropped out. Senator Kamala Harris dropped out. Governor Steve Bullock dropped out. Shes the most foul, cruel, and bad-tempered Minnesotan you ever set eyes on! Former aides have called Klobzilla dehumanizing - not merely demanding. [1] Shes got huge, sharp... She can leap about. Look at the bones of her political adversaries! I warned you, but did you listen to me? Oh, no, you knew it all, didnt you? Oh, shes just a harmless little Minnesotan, isnt she? Well, its always the same. I always tell them. Stop and frisk could have worked if arrests were limited to seizure of illegal guns, as Giuliani used it; Bloomberg expanded it to arrests for possession of a blunt. Due to the marginal legal basis of the policy, officers often make an arrest for whatever they can to CYA to protect themselves from charges of violating due process and civil rights. Its not surprising courts finally tossed it out.
However, it still can be practiced in neighborhoods, say on a street corner for instance, where police receive an excessive number of complains about dope trafficking cause that in itself can create probable cause. OTOH as well, if New York did not have such stringent gun control laws, and the 2nd Amendment were respected, Stop and frisk would not be much of a concern. Here, as usual, you have another great example of Democrats voting against their own interests. RobS De Plorabus Unum 09:12, 14 February 2020 (EST) I havent heard too much talk about the superdelegates this nomination season. So much so I have to ask myself whether they exist anymore. They would have the choice of giving Bernie Sanders the thumbs up or the thumbs down for the nomination if he maintains a lead with a rate of less than about 50% of the available delegates. Maybe its being kept hush-hush so the party elites can snipe Bernie and maintain the element of surprise against the resulting angry Democratic nomination voters as they work to subdue them. VargasMilan ( talk ) Thursday, 21:13, 13 February 2020 (EST) The DNC which changed the rules to let Mini Mike in, now is discussing changing the rules on Superdelegates.
As of now, Superdelegates vote on the second round (there hasnt been a second round in either party since 1952). 20% of Superdelegates can swing a convention for a candidate with a plurality (actually, even a majority) of the popular vote in primaries, if Superdelegates are allowed to vote in the first round to avoid the embarrassment of an open convention. RobS De Plorabus Unum 23:56, 13 February 2020 (EST) Thank you. VargasMilan ( talk ) Friday, 02:02, 14 February 2020 (EST) Like George McGovern, our country needs to decisively reject the Bernie Sanderses of the world. VargasMilan ( talk ) Thursday, 23:22, 13 February 2020 (EST) Dick Morris attributes Klobzillas success to women voters fleeing Biden and Warren. This is an interesting new phenomenon. In an age of feminism, gay marriage, homosexual rights, and the War on Family , its the first time women voted en bloc for a woman because she is a woman - something Hillary only dreamed of - without that woman explicitly running on an anti-family & feminist platform. Its basically a default anti-male protest vote. Even after Klobzilla drops out, this unorganized voting bloc and its motivations remain. RobS De Plorabus Unum 11:05, 15 February 2020 (EST) Bannon is a CP reader
Bannon quotes directly from CPs Bloomberg entry: : Bloomberg has a personal vendetta against Trump ; personal vendetta was uncited cause its my original research.
RobS De Plorabus Unum 16:22, 16 February 2020 (EST) Gosh, youre right. The Youtube video does indeed contain the sentence Bloomberg has a personal vendetta against Trump. That sentence also gets 5.4 million Google hits. Are you sure your article was the one being cited? SamHB ( talk ) 00:38, 17 February 2020 (EST) Sam, youve got to put it in quotes. When you do that, its only 44. Did you see I skipped the lecture? Wasnt that nice of me? VargasMilan ( talk ) Monday, 06:59, 17 February 2020 (EST) (EC) I did put it in quotes. When I do the query now, in quotes, I get over 6 million hits. That must be an extremely popular talk page. Did you perhaps have your browser set to exclude Commie sites? SamHB ( talk ) 11:27, 17 February 2020 (EST) By skipped the lecture did you mean you refrained from pointing out my stupidity and intellectual ineptness? Yes, I saw that, and I appreciate it. SamHB ( talk ) 11:29, 17 February 2020 (EST) I dont think Ive ever used such a global negative about your thinking skills; however, I recently mentioned, as is true sometimes, in some cases, you can do better. VargasMilan ( talk ) Monday, 11:42, 17 February 2020 (EST) Vargas, my friend, I was being playful.
In nearly all of my talk page interactions with you, I assume playfulness on both sides. (The same is true of my other friend Cons.) If there was some kind of serious lecture, exhorting me to do better in my interactions on this site, Id like to hear it. SamHB ( talk ) 19:33, 17 February 2020 (EST) My OR is somewhere in the diffs. This illustrates the role of CP; while national conservs may not link directly, they get good ideas and rhetoric under free license that they can claim as their own. RobS De Plorabus Unum 13:04, 17 February 2020 (EST) Its up to 6.33 million now. Thats a heck of a lot of people getting good ideas and rhetoric from you. Keep up the good work. SamHB ( talk ) 19:33, 17 February 2020 (EST) Steve Bannon is a world-historical figure. This is a big deal. VargasMilan ( talk ) Monday, 19:58, 17 February 2020 (EST) Im just an unsung hero of the anti-Bloomberg revolution. Democrats one day will thank me for this. RobS De Plorabus Unum 20:26, 17 February 2020 (EST) Oh, yeah, Im an unsung hero too. But Conservative is not a hero. Hes an unsung person. VargasMilan ( talk ) Wednesday, 22:15, 19 February 2020 (EST)
Sometimes to get things done it is better to be unsung. Many right-wingers/conservatives crave the limelight and dont work well with others.
And it is hard to get things done by yourself. Anne Coulter said Stephen Miller has thwarted Donald Trump in getting better immigration policies done because he wants to be given all the credit himself. Ronald Reagan said, It is amazing what you can accomplish if you dont care who gets the credit.
And lets not forget what the strategist Sun Tzu said. Be extremely subtle, even to the point of formlessness. Be extremely mysterious, even to the point of soundlessness. Thereby you can be the director of the opponents fate. - Sun Tzu . Conservative ( talk ) 02:26, 20 February 2020 (EST) Each situation is different. Donald Trump takes a lot of action and does things to get attention to flood the zone because opposing journalists have a hard time following more than one shiny ball at once. So it is harder for them to really focus on one thing and get traction. And then add to the mix that Trump trolls journalist/liberals/leftists to further flood the zone. If your opponent is of choleric temperament, seek to irritate him. - Sun Tzu. Again each situation calls for different strategies/tactics. Do not repeat the tactics which have gained you one victory, but let your methods be regulated by the infinite variety of circumstances.
- Sun Tzu. Conservative ( talk ) 02:32, 20 February 2020 (EST) How about a thank you for the compliment? Its not as if I insecurely used the fancy title on myself, drained it of its poetry and then condescendingly pretended I fixed it so it could be applied to you too! Some people. VargasMilan ( talk ) Thursday, 15:51, 20 February 2020 (EST) Buttigieg and Zuckerberg
Bootyboy and Zuckerberg were butt buddies in college. Bootyboy was among Facebooks first 300 users. Somebody needs to research this and stick it in Bootyboys article. RobS De Plorabus Unum 11:15, 13 February 2020 (EST) I did research it. It was first broken by Mercury News recently in an interview Buttigieg did in San Francisco. And Zuckerberg had visited South Bend and Mayor Buttigieg many months ago on his Im a normal guy, America tour. Some stories stick around the Twittersphere like a toothache and wont go away. VargasMilan ( talk ) Thursday, 18:06, 13 February 2020 (EST) What? Are you trying to deny the Buttigieg/Facebook conspiracy to take over America which has been in the works for morethan 15 years? [21] RobS De Plorabus Unum 18:43, 13 February 2020 (EST) It cant happen here. VargasMilan ( talk ) Thursday, 20:52, 13 February 2020 (EST) 40 percent of Americans believe America is ready for a homosexual president.
[22] Ordinary voters are quoted saying they — or their “devout Christian†mother — “would never vote for a gay.†And the Buttigieg campaign’s own focus groups recently found that many undecided black voters in South Carolina regard the candidate’s sexual orientation as a “barrier†to winning their votes (source: New York Times [23] ). Buttigieg is a joke candidate. Klobzilla is a far more fearsome candidate! Conservative ( talk ) 11:17, 15 February 2020 (EST) 59% of conservatives married 46% of moderates married 40% of liberals married [24] No breakdown on the percentage of gay married. But Id guess a sizeable percentage of libs 40% are gay married, if the actual number isnt currently outpacing traditional marriage. Which leaves a question, Why has the gay rights movement latched onto such a declining popular trend? RobS De Plorabus Unum 11:35, 15 February 2020 (EST)
The David P. McWhirter, M.D., and Andrew M. Mattison, M.S.W., Ph.D. study reported in their 1984 work The Male Couple: How Relationships Develop stated that in regards to relationships involving male homosexuality that all couples with a relationship lasting more than 5 years have incorporated some provision for outside sexual activity in their relationships.
See: Homosexuality and promiscuity
Homosexual marriage among males is likely a farce in terms of monogamy. I dont believe it often exists. Maybe I am wrong about this matter, but I doubt it. Conservative ( talk ) 11:54, 15 February 2020 (EST) Stats show a typical hetero person may have between 1 and 20 lifetime encounters with different partners, with 200 at the upper extreme, whereas a typical homosexual has between 1 and 200, with 1,000 at the upper extreme. And as you just pointed, monogamy is rare in gay marriages and relationships. So no, gay behavior and relationships is not just like straight relationships. RobS De Plorabus Unum 13:35, 15 February 2020 (EST) In fact , marriage was instituted to protect the rights of a monogamous person with a cheating spouse. Evidence suggest in the first years of legalized gay marring, many enter into it who are already in polygamous relations, even with the knowledge and understanding of the parties. This destroys the whole concept of marriage. And the only argument that made gay marriage legal before SCOTUS is whataboutism . RobS De Plorabus Unum 13:47, 15 February 2020 (EST) Bernie: I promise to spend the remainder of our childrens patrimony on Medicare for All adults, who are the ones always needing to see the doctor.
Well do it right under their noses, and once they figure out what weve done, well see a REAL revolution. After all the bloodshed well have a true socialist nation where we can practice cultural Marxism all we want, and the social chaos that ensues will be smoothed over by taking out our anger on former beneficiaries of capitalism and practitioners of heroic morals! VargasMilan ( talk ) Saturday, 19:07, 15 February 2020 (EST) Bernie is already moving to the center, if such a thing were possible. RobS De Plorabus Unum 19:11, 15 February 2020 (EST) Trumps Whisper Network
The media is all abuzz with a recent NYT op-ed, Trumps Whisper Network . It claims 2/3 of undecideds vote Trump (so just add that figure to any poll between now and election day). But among the other gems in this liberal tripe is this: Republicans will organize their campaign around the country’s material prosperity under Trump; Democrats around its moral deterioration ,
coming from the same people fielding a lily-white field of 5 sexist and racist Democrats who railroaded all candidates of color out and rigged the rules for a greedy white male capitalist to carry the banner of anal sex as a human right and transgender bathrooms.
Sheesh.
Heres an idea for new slogan: We are the 90%! who, according to Gallup, are satisfied with our personal lives. RobS De Plorabus Unum 20:52, 16 February 2020 (EST) Thats not enough. In the next four years, KAS: Keep America Satisfied. VargasMilan ( talk ) Sunday, 23:05, 16 February 2020 (EST) Buttigieg also carries the banner that homosexuality is ethically equal to heterosexuality. But he doesnt care about our opinion. We were never asked. And we wont be anytime soon. He just threatens to reveal secrets about heterosexuals who so much as hint that being a homosexual could be disadvantageous to being an American president, even cancer patient Rush Limbaugh. VargasMilan ( talk ) Monday, 07:58, 17 February 2020 (EST) AG Barr goes after sanctuary cities
Like the title says, Attorney General of the United States William Barr is beginning legal proceedings against wholly-secular sanctuary cities, including enabling the victims of crimes by illegal immigrant brutes, who kill about 60 a year in the United States, to sue those municipalities for damages. I cant wait for the host municipalities populations of illegal pedophile parishioners in sanctuarium locations to be sued by families of victims for millions.
These sanctuaries are not just dangerous, they are unconstitutional : No State shall, without the consent of Congress, lay any duty of tonnage, keep troops or ships of war in time of peace, enter into any agreement or compact with another State or with a foreign power , or engage in war, unless actually invaded or in such imminent danger as will not admit of delay.
Any state that tolerates, or is forced to tolerate, these squatter-camps of illicitly-residing and criminally-prone foreigners, who can potentially be used to menace or mobilize against non-globalists and their allies as local policy is formulated and issued from day to day, is constitutionally derelict for keeping a thinly-disguised standing army in times of peace that has been gradually growing in recent times, all while, as citizens burdened and excluded from benefits under the unfair legally-enforced arrangement, We were never asked.
For shame, globalists! For shame, America!
VargasMilan ( talk ) Monday, 03:06, 17 February 2020 (EST)
Vargas Milan is a self-nominated editorialist for Conservapedia Talk:Main Page, who is eligible for the Pulitzer Prize. What is Dataclarifier doing?
In Conservapedia article Mysticism , he has entitled one section: Protestantism as a form of Gnostic Christianity.
Gnosticism is heretical! I dont feel that is appropriate!
Worse, he makes a major three-step error to back up this assertion. He begins with a description of what he calls a relativistic approach in Protestantism. Is this only Protestant approach? Everyone knows it is not. Is it even a Protestant approach at all? The author he goes on to cite as an example is Joseph Campbell , who is not even a Christian!
Secondly, in between he states, The Historical-grammatical method (Literal hermeneutic) of orthodox catholic biblical hermeneutics directly contradicts this [relativistic] approach.
Fine. When you click the link to Historical-grammatical method (Literal hermeneutic) , which he also wrote in its entirety, you find the method is not orthodox catholic at all but established by Dr. Martin Luther , the founder of Protestantism himself, in a break with orthodox catholic Bible interpretation!
Finally, the link to the source he cites to prove this that he includes, shows this is no substitution error of attribution, but it indeed proves Luther is the founder of the Historical-grammatical method (Literal hermeneutic) .
So to sum up: Dataclarifier goes out of his way to make a point of insulting Protestantism for supposedly not using the very Bible interpretation method that the founder of Protestantism actually broke with Catholic tradition in establishing!
So I ask again, what is Dataclarifier doing? VargasMilan ( talk ) Monday, 11:18, 17 February 2020 (EST) Yes, we have the same cutn paste in Salvation .
I inquired at talk. It appears nothing more than an attack on Protestantism and does not further an understanding of Salvation. Elsewhere, in extensive discussion, Dataclarifier has admitted point blank to denying the authority of scripture. So I have no qualms about reverting wholesale any contributions on the subjuct of scripture, or quoting scripture as a source. Myself and others have likewise found blatant misuse of scriptural passages. Id recommend engaging him on talk. If he fails to respond in a reasonable amount of time, or spams the page with hypertext and circular responses, just revert wholesale. Mysticism I cant find in my Strongs Concordance , so I dont really have any interest or understanding of the subject. But attacks on Protestantism like that should probably be dealt with in Essay space. RobS De Plorabus Unum 13:22, 17 February 2020 (EST) I think you checkmated DataClarifier, and he may have resented it, and when he developed vivid fantasies of frustrating authority figures, he transfered them to you and decided to carry them out one day. Perhaps with the help of the DavidE account and perhaps to hamper Conservapedia by isolating and entangling one of its officers.
A Parthian shot that ended prematurely. VargasMilan ( talk ) Monday, 14:33, 17 February 2020 (EST) Here are the article pages with the Protestantism is Gnosticism paragraphs he pasted onto, if an admin would like to do some kind of bulk reversion in easily defined parts (main body and leftovers), because that is how I might do it.:
