What a joke. Paultards are experts in Alinsky tactics. They are the ones that have labeled mainstream conservatives as RINO, statist, NWO, globalist, free traitor, etc.., ad nauseum.
Calling RP a kook is simply the truth.
He is an isolationist whose economic policies are unworkable or just idiotic. Tariffs, gold standard, return the Fed to Congress (just what we would have needed in 2008, Frank and Dodd running the Fed...sheesh).
His isolationism would shut down our military while we wait for attacks to come to us, sacrificing our few allies left in the world.
His libertarian hatred of any government power would leave us defenseless against all manner of real threats.
He wants to cut government spending...great, so does everyone else. However, they are in touch with reality enough that they know you will not end five federal departments and cut the budget by one third overnight.
His social positions are so far out as to make him a kook even with no other short comings. Conservatives do not support gay marriage, legalized hard drugs, abortion choice, legalized prostitution, or so many other pure libertarian views.
Government has always had a responsibility to maintain moral values that match those of the governed, maintaining a cohesive society. Now, it is always a struggle to make sure those laws do not go too far, but RP would have no legislated morality, and therefore, no societal identity.
He is not a Republican, nor a conservative and I'm glad his lunacy is finally being openly talked about, instead of it remaining locked in the attic.
There is nothing mainstream or conservative about globalism.
For example Rick Perry was a democrat who changed parties but not his ideology. RINO, republican in name only, is a perfect description of the politician.
NWO— that term was first heard by the American people when G H W Bush uttered it as he signed away American sovereignty at the United Nations Rio Accord. Is that globalist as well?
Free traitor is an apt description for the corporatist fascists ruining our economy by forcing off shoring and outsourcing in industrial and business sectors.
These names were used way before this election cycle. They are descriptors of the people who are ruining this country.
The lunacy is among the globalists who think that killing America off with interdependence, looting our economy to ‘raise all boats’ in their words, and destroying American culture with marxism and illegal immigration, can continue without very dire consequences for humanity.
“Government has always had a responsibility to maintain moral values that match those of the governed, maintaining a cohesive society. Now, it is always a struggle to make sure those laws do not go too far..”
Hey Hun - can you point out to me where the Constitution or Bill of Rights says this? Just curious...
I am worried that so many folks think that our Constitution is bad and should not be followed today because it implies that one hates all government power. Reality is that it was carefully considered as a way to “limit” federal government power. (..to make sure the government does not go too far maybe?)
Also, compliments on your great use of Alinsky tactics by first implying that the tactic is bad and only used by bad people and then employing the primary technique of ridicule blatantly...some might call that hypocrisy, but it was entertaining at least. LOL!!!
