Wake Up Flaccidcons – It's Not 2005 Anymore

Town Hall ^ | 22 Aug 2022 | Kurt Schlichter

[Rummyfan]

Oh, Mike Pence, you soft, naive little man. Oh, Tim Scott, you kind and friendly gentleman. I like you both. I really do. I would love you to be my neighbors. If I ran short of sugar or charcoal, you'd square me away. Not so much bourbon, but whatever. If I asked you to help me move or give me a ride to the airport, you suckers would be all in because you are nice guys. And that's your problem and the problem of Republicans like you. You are nice guys in a time that calls for ruthless killers who want to destroy our enemies and leave them on their backs, figuratively cockroaching on the floor.

We want vengeance and victory. You want hugs. I guess that's nice. Hugworld would be pleasant, but it's the hardcore bomb throwers who get us to that stage by pummeling our enemies into submission. You find that unsavory, disconcerting, unseemly. You would prefer a world of comity, collegiality, and unicorns. And that ain't happening until we warrior cons have broken our enemy – yeah, I used the "E" word – and exacted our payback and thereby ensured that their pain is so great that they will not dare even dream of repeating this nonsense again for a generation for fear of our righteous wrath.

Your problem is that you live on forever in a world that no longer exists, if it ever did. You live in a world where there are norms. You live in a world of rules and guardrails, where the institutions are at least nominally neutral and where we all share some basic premises that provide common ground. But we don't. They hate America. They hate believing Christians and Jews. They hate the idea of free speech, freedom of religion...

[Rummyfan]

Schlichter is right. Cannot Republicans look around and see the overwhelming success of President Trump endorsed candidates? We want Republicans in Congress and across the board who will fight back, not attempt to reach across the aisle. Enough is enough!

[Rummyfan]

You are both Tom Hagan, reliable and soft Tom Hagan, when we are Michael and we need a Sonny to go after the Barzinis and Tartaglias of the left.

It's Tataglia but never mind, he's rolling.

[Lurkinanloomin]

Bush League Republicans are only nice guys with Democrats.

Watch how vicious they get towards people who want to stop the Bush Plan for North Mexico (aka USA) or who object to spending enormous sums on wars in far away lands that are not vital to the USA.

[Rummyfan]

Sorry about your shattered dreams, but this is our liberty, and to preserve that, we can live with you being disappointed. Maybe someday, after those of us who are based destroy the enemy's ability to make war upon us, you can have your shot and preside over an era of good feelings. But that will only come after someone else does the dirty work you are incapable of. So step aside, and let the warriors do their thing.

Reminds me of King Faisal in Lawrence of Arabia saying he yearned for the gardens of Cordoba... however, first must come the fighting.

[Ken H]

They are not nice guys. They are vicious backstabbers whose masks have come off.

[facedown]

We have made peace with the fact that there is nothing left to conserve, that we must loot and pillage and fight to rebuild upon the ruins.

This man can turn a phrase.

[Mr. N. Wolfe]

I always enjoy Kurt Schlichter’s articles. He’s not a namby-pamby, politically correct journalist like most of the others.

[aspasia]

Watch yourselves for the pendulum swing. Like an angry metallica swinging your axe you are disposed to mistreat even your friends.

Read: "Abolition of Man" by C.S. Lewis. "For every one pupil who needs to be guarded against a weak excess of sensibility there are three who need to be awakened from the slumber of cold vulgarity."

[dfwgator]

Flaccidcons - Love it!

[Nextrush]

Limpservatives.

[Oldeconomybuyer]

Good read.

[wardaddy]

I’m ambivalent on some of his assertions

[ConservativeInPA]

There is no contradiction in being nice and a fighter. For everything there is a season …

Pence is a remnant of compassionate conservatism. Compassion is for infants and toddlers when they are fully dependent on their mothers. But a child needs to mature and explore with increasing autonomy to mature. Quite simply, adults need truth and action, not compassion.

Scott and Pence know exactly what they are doing. Apparently Kurt is the one who is confused. Being weak does not mean you are nice.

[Nextrush]

Banking and Business buy politicians Reagan had some funny names for it like “the world’s second oldest profession bearing a close resemblance to the first” and “the world with its pants down”.

So I guess one can say that the “Christians” in politics ended up being “Hookers” so to speak.

The Gopers who aren’t globulists or plain crooks are mostly Tutts. That was what a certain class of fatuous Blimps got tagged as in the UK after a couple years of seemingly endless retreats and defeat. These were the types who would actually chastise combat veterans fro ‘bad attitudes’ about they had witnessed n places like Crete or Burma, as in ‘Tut, tut, old boy, can’t go around talking HM’s government down,’ or ‘Tut, tut old man, those Jappers won’t be able to do anything against our Indian Army, why we will have chased them all the way back to Tokyo in a few months. Everybody they can’t fly because they are crosseyed because of their little monkey skulls.’ Lots of Tutts in the GOP.

[Night Hides Not]

Tattaglia was a pimp, he never could have out fought Santino.
