Did The Romney Campaign Read Rules for Radicals?

Well Papa Romney was an Alinskyite and I see nothing admirable in the Recent GOP behavior.



When you become the enemy, exactly who has won?

[Kansas58]

You are absurd.

Communists use guns, in war.

Does that mean Capitalists should NOT use guns, in war?

LEARN HOW TO FIGHT!

You purists want to lose but lose as purists.

Read it? Team willard seems to have memorized it along with the discourses by Machiavelli.

Nice for purposes of beating hussein. Not so nice when those same strategies are used against conservatives.

[cripplecreek]

Yeah whatever. Guess I’m the enemy now.

Maybe you should have me silenced at FR.

[Silentgypsy]

Idealism is admirable. However, I prefer to oust the clown-in-chief now and regroup later. We have to stand united against multiple threats to our country.

“Nice for purposes of beating hussein. Not so nice when those same strategies are used against conservatives.”

Those same nasty strategies have been used against us by Dems for years now. Time to strike back. An eye for an eye, fight fire with fire etc. etc. They’ve gotten away with murder because conservatives are by nature well behaved and polite. That’s when we always get sucker punched, and they know we don’t fight back. Not now though, the party is over for the Dems. The Empire strikes back.

[RKBA Democrat]

Is that who I think it is shaking hands with George Romney?!

[elephant]

Give them a taste of their own medicine!

[cripplecreek]

Its Saul Alinsky meeting with George Romney to talk about how to "solve" the problems of Detroit.

This whole campaign seems to be about finishing the job started by Mitt's father.

[RKBA Democrat]

if you’ve read any of my posts over the years you’d know that I’m an advocate of firing back when fired upon.

The problem with embracing alinskys tactics is that they become the thing you use not just against the bad guys, they also end up being used against the good guys. Hell is filled with those who figured they’d embrace a little evil for the best of reasons. And then it became their master.

Think I’m being overly dramatic? Pick up a copy of rules for radicals and read who it is dedicated to.

Clint Eastwood's empty chair was a stroke of genius. Even a moron watching in TV land could figure out that the invisible empty suit is a giant POS!

[KC_Lion]

Yeah, "Purist" alright~

Don't forget the Convention fight in '64 when the Purist Jorge Romney refused to support the honest-to-G-D Conservative Barry Goldwater, which gave us Lyndon Johnson, who is one of the main people responsible for our current situation!

[newzjunkey]

Reportedly the chair was Clint’s doing, without the campaign’s knowledge, and the stagehand who brought it out for him as Clint asked assumed he would sit in it.

[cripplecreek]

As far as I’m concerned the GOP is responsible for Obamacare because of the conservatives they threw overboard in 08.

[newzjunkey]

There’s an old piece on that fight posted just above. It’s hard to fault with fighting Goldwater for opposing civil rights legislation.

[KC_Lion]

Hell I say they are for allowing the "Cloister" Vote or whatever the Hell it was called, the vote that even allowed DeathCare to be voting on in the first place. The Republicans voted for that.

Saul Alinksy got 2 of his protegees in both the Dem/Repub parties for the price of one.

Have you switched your party affiliation yet C.C.? I didn't want to be associated with the Progressive wing anymore.

[KC_Lion]

The 1957 Civil Rights bill was halted in congress, with no small part due to Senate Majority Leader Lyndon Johnson.

While Senator Barry Goldwater pushed hard for it.

Not-So-Ironically their roles would be reversed in 1964 because Goldwater thought the Title II and Title VII of the bill unlawfully overextended the role of the federal government.

While Lyndon Johnson (sadly) correctly inferred this would make blacks depended on the Democrat Party.

And look where we are today where businesses are forced to take customers they don't want and Chick-Fil-A is public enemy number 1 for an opinion.

[KC_Lion]

"We reserve the right to refuse service"

That right is essential to an American, to NOT do something.

Now it is required by law to do EVERYTHING, Deathcare is a tax on being alive!

Does that sound like liberty to you?
