Thanks for the high quality post. Hope it’s widely read all the way through, and understood.
My projection?
You seem to be the one who needs a mirror
For some reason, there are some on this board whose hatred for Liz and her supporters is visceral, and they pop up on just about every Liz thread.
Only Lynne Cheney has any real roots in Wyoming.
I don’t mind being swayed by facts and opinions, but acting like Liberals with blind hate won’t budge me
Huh? You’re resorting to ad hominem silliness because you’re out of ammunition on the actual debate.
Very well; let’s tack in a new direction that might be favorable to you.
What is it about Liz Cheney that appeals so much to you? Spell it out for me.
You seem to be single issue on the gay thing.
read your own posts.
Your problem.
Not mine.
good night.
>> there are some on this board whose hatred for Liz and her supporters is visceral
I don’t hate Liz, but yes, I have a visceral hatred for her position on faggotry.
So I take it that you’re in favor of government-mandated faggotry, as is Liz Cheney?
Please explain the benefits to America of that outcome.
No, her reason for challenging him has nothing to do with the sales tax.
Here’s what I’ve heard from “connected” people in the state:
After the last 10 years of continuous war with no apparent goal, Wyoming has turned rather isolationist. It is clearly obvious that the Oh-So-Terribly-Smart people in DC, usually graduates of Ivy League schools, have no intention of doing what needs to be done to win the “war on terror” (which is a bizarre appellation in the first place). They’re content to use terrorism as an excuse to sniff into everyone’s email and phone records, while not actually taking the war to actual terrorists.
Furthermore, there is a wing of the GOP that cannot seem to keep their mouths shut on foreign issues where we have no actual interests and no good options. eg, Syria. Why would we ever want to involve ourselves in Syria? We have no interests in that country. There are no allies, there are no friends of the US. As more and more news leaks out, it is clear that Benghazi was a gun-running operation which involved Syria.
This region of the country has always been isolationist - even in the run-up to WWII. We don’t like DC. We don’t like politicians in general. We don’t like DC smarty-pants types coming in here to tell us what to do.
The GOP-e can see the handwriting on the wall. Mike Enzi was going to run one more time, and it would be obvious to all that it is his last term. There will be people coming forward from inside the state to run for Enzi’s seat, and they’re likely to be isolationist and libertarian-leaning. The NSA issue is a big deal here, as are the issues of gun control and over-regulation.
The GOP-e, controlled by neo-cons, wants to keep a reliable interventionist contingent in Congress. They can see that they’ve got a problem on their hands with the Tea Party candidates, who ask question like “Why are we sending money and military people to these countries where we have no actual interests?”
So Lizzie shows up to run for Enzi’s seat. She’s a flaming interventionist, tied at the hip to the GOP-e and very much a DC player. The GOP-e thought that playing the Cheney “card” in the state would be their best shot to get a reliable meddling interventionist into the Senate as they look at their prospects of people taking down clowns like the limp-wristed Graham, McCain is likely to croak soon and there are primary challenges taking shape all over the map.
You seem to be incapable of grasping, let alone defending, a position.
Understood; on many levels, your position IS untenable. I understand why you’re running away.
Good night.
I don’t have to defend anything.
You are the one that hangs your hat on hating Liz Cheny because of what you say her stance on gays is.
If you think that is a winning issue in the coming years, by all means, go for it.
Lame.
“Lame” The last word of the loser in a debate
In other words, you got nothin’. Yet you came back for more.
I thought you said you were done?
If you have nothing of substance, save yourself the trouble and just be done. Acknowledge you have nothing, and go to bed.
Otherwise, I’ll ask the question again: what about Liz Cheney do you think (or feel) is superior to Enzi?
Simple enough question. Can you answer it? OR will you throw up yet another smokescreen?
So Liz must hate her sister to get your respect. Well... I guess that tells me what I need to know about you. I have many friends and family that are sinners. Apparently you don’t. I myself am a sinner. I suppose you hate me too. Well... I hope this works out for you.
Actually, it was my first word in the debate.
Nice strawman, there, lover of perversion.
The Internet tax bill was a serious mistake, but it’s not as big a mistake as Liz’s pro-amnesty or pro-NSA spying view of the world.
She should have run in VA, she is as conservative as could be hoped for.
“So I take it that youre in favor of government-mandated faggotry, as is Liz Cheney?”
Before you spout off...you hateful BUFFOON... you ought to understand the English language.
No government agency is going to DEMAND that you be a “faggot”... you brain-challenged, witless imbecile.
