Newt Gingrich and Rudy Giuliani Have Bold Plans to Make Trumpism Even Worse
Esquire ^ | June 14th, 2016 | By Charles P. Pierce

Posted on 06/14/2016 1:30:58 PM PDT by Mariner

Of all the predictable political responses to the mass murder in Orlando, the immediate impulse of non-Trumpian Republicans to dive for the handiest authoritarian solution is the most predictable of all.

Here, among the Fox News electric teevee machine mannequins, is He, Trump's future Attorney General, explaining why the Bill of Rights now has to stop at only two amendments, and the first one doesn't count. Via Mediate:

"There's no minister, there's no rabbi in this city — nor are there some imams — that object to having police officers in their congregation," he argued. "In fact, they want them there, they want them to learn the message. It's enlightening for them." "So if you've got nothing going on there but a beautiful religious service, why in His name would you not want to have police officers there?" he asked.

Here, with an opposing view, and dropping in from 1761, is Mr. James Otis, of Boston.

these folks would be genuinely funny if it were not for the fact they would get us, and our progeny, dead at the Sword of Islam.

no need for police officers at churches. Lots of churches allow congregation to conceal carry and some are off-duty police officers.

All of this was done after 9/11 - and it’s why under Bush and Guiliani we had no terrorist attacks. These people are sleeping walking to their death.

The MSM are on the side of terrorists.

They are dishonest and deceitful.

They are helping to destroy America.

No surveillance!

OUTLAW the muslim Brotherhood (as we did the Nazis and communists)!!!!

CLOSE all muslim Brotherhood mosques, and end all muslim Brotherhood affiliates like the muslim Student Association and CAIR!!!!

We may well get large numbers of muslims to self-deport, without destroying the First Amendment!!!!

This from the Mouthpiece of the Fascist Democrat party who only response to any problem is a renewed demand to take guns away from law abiding citizens.

Hey Esquire, what to see who the real “authoritarians” wanna bes are, look in the mirror.

At my church no one talks about being armed. I know that several are, though. It wouldn’t surprise me if I discovered that the Priest is carrying. His life experiences might predispose him to physically protect his flock.

Trump? Worse? No he’s making it better! Newt or Rudy both would be good VP picks. Happy Birthday Donald Trump! Someday, I predict, it will be a national Holiday!

“These people are sleeping walking to their death.”

The past 7 years have been a boon to Islam in the war with the west, all thanks to Obama/Clinton and the rat GOP. At some point, every American is going to have to decide whether they want Jihadists as their next door neighbors or not.

Arrest and neutralize the Head of the Moslem Brotherhood in America. Actually we can’t do that. The Head of the MB controls the resources and procedures of arrest through his DoJ.

W. T. F.???? When they say non-Trumpian Republicans, do they mean “Democrats”, because they are the only ones diving for predictable authoritarian solutions.

Some of the kudos has to go to GWB. If he had prosecuted the Arab Wars of his tenure as Wars and not as law enforcement and social missions, much of what Hussein/Clinton/Kerry have accomplished could not have come to pass.

First of all, as a former assistant professor of history and substitute metal-shop teacher at Bugtussle Regional State College And Live Bait Barge, Gingrich has to know that HUAC was not created as a standing committee of the House until 1945, and that its primary aim was chasing shadows and the rancid butterflies flittering over the garbage dumps that were the minds of its members.

First, Gingrich taught at West Georgia State. The closest location known as Bugtussle is in the middle of Alabama. Alger Hiss was a bit more than a rancid butterfly, though the rancid part is right. Verona, anyone?

Before that, it was merely a special investigation committee. It ransacked, among other things, the Federal Theater Program, but it declined to investigate the Ku Klux Klan because, as John Rankin of Mississippi put it, the Klan was nothing more than an old American institution.

While Gingrich would likely be given tenure at a presitigious University today if he wanted to resume academic pursuits, the scribbler of this article has been at it for 40 years without rising above relative obscurity. Nonetheless, even he should know that Sen. John Rankin was very much a Democrat, and that the Trump administration would likely be presiding over a Republican Congress. I don't think there's much interest in protecting the Klan in either chamber.

We have police officers at services.

Also members of the US Armed Forces.

The doors are always open for anyone to come in and see what we are doing when services are in session.

We do ask that you simply act like a civilized human and not disrupt the service.

You may take pictures, record or just ask for a recording of the service from the sound man.

The only time we are not open to the public is during our twice a year business meeting. And even then you are not forbidden to attend, if you are interested in how much we spent on Sunday School manuals or the spirited debate whether we should buy a John Deere or Troy-Bilt lawn mower then feel free to attend. You just can't vote on the issues.

Yet it’s ok to spy on almost every American through cell phone companies back doors. Snowden exposed just how many liberties we have lost that we didn’t even know about.
