Time for real Conservatives to treat Harris like they treated Palin
Vanity | 12 August 2020 | Trueblackman

Posted on 08/12/2020 9:34:32 AM PDT by Trueblackman

I saw an article on FR late last night calling for Harris to be treated in the same manner as Palin was by Democrats in 2008.

Let us not forget or remind the American People that Harris got her start in politics, not because of her drive and intelligence, but as Willi Brown's Sweet Little Thang.

Conservatives need to show up at every Biden-Harris with a pair of plastic legs with heels pointed skyward to remain the American People daily, how she got her start in politics.

I’m not saying high road to defeat. I’m say smart road to victory. Look at Trump’s remark: going after her positions, and political history. THAT’S the right move. There’s simply no reason to hit any politician on anything else. It accomplishes NOTHING.

Right, and ridicule is the weapon of the weak. Or is it the the weapon of the week? Sarcasm will be the weapon of next week. You go ahead and slap fight with Nerf gloves on, I’ll bite and gouge eyes.

Ridicule is the weapon of the people who have no facts. Your need to throw insults here shows it. All you’ve done is shown you’re not bright, you’re not listening, and you couldn’t even understand how powerful Trump’s message about her is. Thanks for proving my point.

Kamala is also descended from Brahmins, the elite oppressors in the Indian caste system.

(BTW, he way that works is the lighter your skin, the higher your caste. People who look “black” (the aboriginals) are”Untouchable.”)

If your point was that we should play nice and try to make all of the Maoists who want us dead like us, then yes, you’ve made your point brilliantly.

My point, as I already said, and you should have read, but you can’t be bothered, was to be ADULTS. Attack her like any other politician: positions and history. There’s no need for childish antics like the left pulled on Palin. It will accomplish nothing. She’s a tax and spend anti-military pro-socialized medicine leftist. You can’t beat her on THAT, you don’t deserve to win. If you must go to insults, which you did again, you are just plain not equipped to deal.

In a perfect world. where the left plays by the rules we are asked to follow, you'd be correct. I'm guessing the Founders would agree with much of what you're saying (although some of them got mean and nasty, for their time), believing that an enlightened electorate would heed such advice. But the left doesn't play by the rules. We play the gentlemen/women, making sane, reasoned, logical, polite arguments, appealing to intellect and fairness. For our trouble, the leftists kick us in the nuts. And while we're rolling around on the ground in agony, trying to catch our breath, we can't speak sanely against chants, riots, and assault. Then the left plays the race card and freebies from da gummint, and then no one wants to listen.

What to do? I've been involved in politics, in one way or another, since the 1960 elections. I can confidently say that things have gone totally off the rails here. Reasoned, rational debate no longer seems to be operative. As loathe as I am to say it, we should at least defend ourselves and our candidates against the rising tide of leftist mob rule. If that involves some measure of harsh rhetoric (based in truth) or even physicality, well, I don't know what choice we have, given the odds against us.

It’s got nothing to do with perfect world or the rules. Again look at how women have fled from the left since Palin. They alienated women with that stuff, even women that don’t agree with big chunks of the GOP platform. When you attack somebody in a way that’s oriented towards their demographic checkboxes other people who check those boxes tend to feel attacked. That’s bad.

If you’ve been involved since 1960 then you know the point. Kennedy’s campaign head was the guy that figured out switching a voter was a two step process: first you get them not to vote for the other guy, then you get them to vote for you. And you only have to do the first part. If you go hitting your opponent in a way that makes women feel attacked you’re doing the first part FOR THEM. Don’t do it!

Harsh rhetoric is fine. I have not said ANYTHING against harsh rhetoric, and I don’t know why you guys keep reading it that way. Just don’t be misogynistic @$#holes. The OP says bring plastic legs to her events. NO! That’s STUPID. That’s going to make women feel attacked. That’s going to lose voters.

Attack the hell out of her for her POLICIES. For her POSITIONS. For her POLITICS. Don’t do ANYTHING that hits her for being a black woman.

I am sure some people will be stuck in denial about the fact that black people owned other black people as slaves.

While that fact is verifiable, it doesn’t apply here, as the ancestor in question was a white woman of Irish ethnicity, one of Kamala’s father’s mixed-race Jamaican line.

Many Irish were captured by pirates and taken to the West Indes as slaves during the 18th century.
