Contacted. The word is contacted.
Whete’s the outrage?
The uniparty isn’t outraged because what mitch is doing is exactly what the uniparty wants. Since when do employees of an organization get upset about other members of that same organization doing what they’re paid to do?
FYI
It sure is. I first noticed that phrase a couple on months ago in an e-mail to my company, as in "If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me." No, I not going to reach out to anyone. I will contact them.
I agree.
It sounds as if Erick is as enraged as I am. He should reach out to me. ;-)
“Where the hell are the Republican leaders? Of the 2,347 candidates running for President, surely there are more than just Donald Trump and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) 100% willing to speak forcefully and vocally against the Republicans in Washington.”
And Abraham said, Oh let not the Lord be angry, and I will speak yet but this once: Peradventure ten shall be found there. And he said, I will not destroy it for ten’s sake.
Obviously, there weren’t 10 righteous in Sodom and Gomorrah and I don’t think there are 10 in the Senate either. At least we know now what we’re up against.
>> Contacted. The word is contacted <<
Yes, of course. I join you in disdain for the “touchy feely” language style that infects so many of our fellow citizens.
But remember that the article is by Erick Erickson, who doesn’t know that red is the appropriate color for communism, while blue is the appropriate color for patriotism. So I don’t think one should expect his literary output to rise to your admirable standards.
I agree Cruz is the only man. But think about this... why don’t the majority of conservatives support him? And the population at large? I don’t think the majority of Americans want a righteous man to lead them. That is the real problem. The unrighteous want someone like themselves. I truly believe Cruz is America’s last chance.
Ever seen a map of the United States with the Republican states in Red and the Democrat States in Blue? That is where Red State comes from.
Used to be the other way around...the libs got tired of self advertisong that they were communists.
Cruz would support and praise anyone one of his competitors for taking a righteous stand, he has done so on numerous occasions.
So what is the difference between Cruz and the others, there are many but in this case it is HONOR the others have very little if any, they see Cruz speaking the truth as a weakness they think works towards their advantage.
The GOP- Elites and the RNC now own Planned Parenthood, Sanctuary Cities, The Import Export Bank, Etc., Etc. It’s way past time for most of our elected Republican legislators and executives and other elected officials to quit using the word Conservative to describe themselves.
I agree completely, I’m sick of the politically correct terms everybody and his dog seems to be using these days...
reach out
boots on the ground
have a “conversation”
moving forward
at the end of the day
I started emailing everybody on Fox a few months ago, starting with Bill O’Reilly, requesting that they stop using the phrase “boots on the ground”. A couple of weeks later he told Ed Henry, white house correspondent, the term had been banned on his show. Good.. I don’t know if it had anything to do with my emailing him 3 times, I was just glad to see someone start paying attention. Since then I’ve noticed it seems to be much less commonly used.
O’Reilly did a segment about this a couple of weeks ago, listing several of these phrases, initiated by someone saying “at the end of the day”. It seems he doesn’t like that phrase. The ones I listed were those I can remember, and I’m sick of the politically correct pinheads in the media all rushing to use the latest politically correct phrases.
You may think it’s cool to use all the latest politically correct catch phrases, I think it makes you look too damn dumb to think up something of your own to say...
Yeah the term is “contacted”...
Yes, of course, and this abhorrent practice is basically a sleight-of-hand perpetrated originally by Dan Rather and his leftwing journalistic colleagues to help persuade the American public that the Democrat Party is not "communism light."
Moreover, Erickson has played the role of of what the communists used to call a useful idiot by continuing the notion that Republicans are "reds" while Democrats are "blues" -- the latter being the formerly standard color for patriots. Erick is not the only pundit or commentator on our side to make this naive mistake, but I rank him among the worst offenders.
Amen! And let's add "share" as in, I have some information I'd like to share with you.
