Steve Bannon finally found his man: Disgraced Alabama Senate wannabe Roy Moore
NY Post ^ | Nov 16, 2017 | Rich Lowry

Posted on 11/16/2017 11:04:49 PM PST by Oshkalaboomboom

Roy Moore is the Steve Bannon project in a nutshell.

For the former Trump operative, the Alabama Senate candidate’s tattered credibility is a feature, not a bug. If Moore had well-considered political and legal views, good judgment and a sterling reputation, he’d almost by definition be part of the establishment that Bannon so loathes. Since Moore has none of those things, he’s nearly an ideal representative of the Bannon insurgency.

Events in Alabama make it clear that Bannon’s dime-store Leninism — burn everything down, including perhaps the Republican Senate majority — comes at a considerable cost. In this project, the truth doesn’t matter, ethics don’t matter, and standards don’t matter. Being anti-establishment is an escape clause from personal responsibility, and #war means proudly defending the indefensible.

Once you’ve devoted time and energy building up the career of white nationalist fellow traveler Milo Yiannopoulos the way Bannon did at Breitbart, there’s nothing that you aren’t willing to do.

It’s no accident Bannon ended up joined at the hip to the one Republican in the state of Alabama who might be capable of losing a Senate race.

Even before the latest revelations, Moore was, at best, Sharron Angle — the accidental GOP candidate who lost to Harry Reid in 2010 — except running in what appeared to be an un-losable seat. The revelations of financial improprieties (Moore took an undisclosed salary from a nonprofit, despite denials) and accusations of sexual misconduct suggest he is wholly Angle’s inferior.

Rick “Lousy” Lowry has never met a RINO he didn’t like.

Another Liberal Fascist hit piece.

” Bear in mind that several in the Senate are now saying that even if Alabama DOES elect Moore, THEY WILL REFUSE TO SEAT HIM.

Think what that means.

Let it sink in, what that MEANS.

It means, in the America of the future, that if ANY legislative body simply DOES NOT LIKE the person the CONSTITUENCY of any given area VOTED IN, they will SIMPLY REFUSE TO RECOGNIZE THAT PERSON AS ACTUALLY HAVING WON THE ELECTION.

There will then, BE NO FURTHER conservatives allowed to take an office they have FAIRLY WON in an election.

Ditto for any OTHER “non-politically correct” group-——Christians, constitutionalists, whites, what-have-you.

In fact, under this new paradigm, if Donald Trump were re-elected, the SENATE and CONGRESS would SIMPLY REFUSE TO ACKNOWLEDGE HIM AS THE PRESIDENT!!!

THIS is what the REAL battle is about-—and if we let the liberals win this one-—

take down all the flags, boys.

The country’s gone. “

That’s Liberal Fascism.It has now insinuated itself into the GOP. And it started with Obama:

http://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2009/05/barack_obama_the_quintessentia_1.html

If you do not like a law, do not enforce it. Its called selective enforcement or selective observation of the law. We have seen this with immigration law,environmental law, ethics violations by Hillary Clinton, and now some queers in Congress want to expel Moore before he arrives, because his politics are anti gay marriage , as a Christian? We are at the brink of another civil war.

How dare they?

McConnell detests Moore because he is against gay marriage and is vocal about it. Some say McConnell is a closet queer, having been discharged from the US Army for apprehended sodomy.

Its almost as if Southern politicians who are Christian, male, and white are the new “niggers” of America.

Insane!

Rich Low-Reeeeeee! et al have disgraced a once relevant publication. Nationalize Preview is a shadow of its former self. I used to read The Corner like an OCD rat on speed.

How many Alabama voters will have read this Hit Piece on Judge Roy Moore before the election?

Hint: the same number whose votes will be changed by it.

Hint#2 (for the dullards): An Obama nickname

Moore is not disgraced. Lowry is disgraceful. The one who is disgraced is the one who acts disgracefully.

By stalling the Trump agenda, that’s exactly what McConnell (and Ryan) are doing. It’s beyond pathetic.

Know who else Rich Lowry doesn’t like? Trump. Oh, and you, if you are a populist conservative. Lowry is no friend of Freepers, freedom or America.

Is there anyone left at National Review besides the freak shows?

Something so creepy about Lowry. He poses a horrible anti-female question to Michelle Bachman years ago and he has a horribly suggestive lower lip that speaks of...well, I’ll let imagination do the work. Plus, that late 80s hairdo!

What a freak.

Actually, Rich, Bannon found his in Trump.

You lost, Rich. Put some ice on it.

Never-Trumpers pouring out their hate and vitriol. So many RINOs burning their bridges to conservatives - and that’s a good thing.

Steve Bannon is Rich Lowry’s project in a nutshell, only Lowry doesn’t have big enough nuts for the task.
