>>LIES “...

They tell lies to spread the fear. As I said, “If you don’t vote for us, the following catastrophe(s) will occur:...” The lies are just the carrier wave for the message of fear.

Fear is a bad thing??? We should fear things that are evil, and work very hard to defeat them.

As the author "explains.:"

".......The flip side of heightened threat bias may not be as sharply defined, as Hibbing notes, but a relative freedom from fear clearly allows for a greater willingness to explore, less fear of others and the unknown, heightened curiosity, a propensity to innovate, etc.— all aspects of the Big Five trait of “openness to new experiences,” identified with liberalism, as noted above. It allows for other aspects of liberalism to flourish as well, particularly a greater capacity for complexity of thought and self-reflection that comes with greater cognitive development—development that’s more favored by decreasing fear. As the world becomes a safer place overall with the advance of civilization, these liberal traits, bringing more deliberation and less impulsive action, are less likely to incur dangerous consequences, which means they have less of a social cost, even as their potential benefits rise.

As societies increase their capacity to create a safer, more nurturing world, these liberal traits are more likely to be socially valuable, because a safer, more nurturing world, which reflects these liberal values is one with reduced actual threats, increased remedies, and greater potential rewards from synergies of different exploratory advances. (The world will also become more friendly to other liberal-related traits or tendencies as well, such as tolerance for uncertainty, and increased integrative complexity—the capacity to first differentiate multiple perspectives and/or dimensions and subsequently integrate or synthesize them.............."

Seventies terrorist Kathy Soliah: "if you can successfully camouflage your own pathology and hatred with a concern for the 'poor' and the 'downtrodden,' then there will always be a 'progressive' milieu to support and defend you."*

Huey Newton, George Jackson, Bernadine Dohrn, Sylvia Baraldini, Rubin Carter, Mumia Abu-Jamal, Rigoberta Menchu and innumerable others have all discovered this principle in the course of their criminal careers.

If only more Americans knew this truth about the evil that hides in ALL leftism.

Remember when we were told that there were 50 million uninsured that would benefit from obamacare? With 7 million singed up for ACA, its results are now “better than expected.”

More proof that liberals distort history as they see fit. Roosevelt, the Democrat Party, NY Times et al celebrated the Nazi socialists pre-war. Roosevelt personally ordered that a passenger ship containing refugee Jews turn back to Europe where ultimately most of the Jews ended up in the concentration camps. Yes, FDR the Jew lover of all time.

One thing I’ve learned over the years doing undercover work and interviewing white collar criminals is that when they give you a long drawn out explanation that could have been summed up in a few short sentences is that they are almost always lying. It amazes me of the depth that they will go to create an illusion to sucker people if they are motivated enough or caught by the collar and need to get out if a jam. For the less experienced who listen too long it drones them into a hypnotic state and they start believing them. I have learned to cut in mid sentence and hammer them with questions. Once I get them back peddling and show them that I don’t believe their lies, they start making mistakes and telling the truth that I catch as I make notes on my notepad (which they don’t like). Someone who tells the truth can spit out the answer pronto. A liar takes a split second longer and I can see it in their eyes and they know it. I can tell by this guy’s long drawn out commentary that he is a NWO socialist onboard with the antiChrist and his mission. Just another liar and deceiver of the same order.

But I think that Dish is under a great deal of customer pressure to get Fox back on. The leftists’ time for celebrating might soon end.

This is the shape of things we must contemplate in finding our collective way forward.

I hope your self-superior, pseudo-intellectual collective finds itself going "Forward!" off a cliff, you smarmy $hit.

Generally speaking, when one has a negative experience, they will learn and avoid that experience again. It’s not fear... it is wisdom.

Paul Rosenberg has thrown many words onto the web, providing ample proof that heis a verbose silly little man.

Issue him some of those wimpoid red pajamas.
