The Blue Elite and Female Lives (Wendy Davis proclaims to be "pro life")
American Thinker ^ | November 10, 2013 | Ben Voth

Posted on 11/10/2013 3:21:00 PM PST by NYer

"I am pro-life,"  [Wendy Davis] said, borrowing from the label anti-abortion activists assign themselves.

"I care about the life of every child: every child that goes to bed hungry, every child that goes to bed without a proper education, every child that goes to bed without being able to be a part of the Texas dream, every woman and man who worry about their children's future and their ability to provide for that future. I care about life and I have a record of fighting for people above all else."

A journalist at the Brownsville Herald in Texas wrote this jarring irony about the blue elite's new Texas darling, Wendy Davis.  She is deemed a great hope for combatting the "Red Scare" in Texas.  Davis is an adamant defender of legal late-term abortion.  This rhetoric is symptomatic of the intellectual culture that engages the very same "newspeak" that George Orwell warned about in 1984.  This type of rhetoric and continuous propaganda on behalf of blue political interests in Texas is essential to the larger moral crisis of America.  The "war on women" replayed now again and again in political races across decades and the political precincts of the nation, alleges that the right seeks to ban birth control, deny women the right to vote, to rape them, and to essentially discriminate against women in any way humanly possible.  Most recently in Virginia with Cuccinelli, but obvious in the re-election of President Obama, this moral crusade to eradicate the Red Scare is substantially premised on false allegations of a "war on women."

A Rasmussen survey of Democrats recently found that 25% of them believe that Tea Party members are a more violent threat to the United States than Al Qaeda.

The political suggestion of "care about the life of every child," is a transparent ever-flexible blue deception. It is offered by our intellectual culture to remind the public which party is allowed to engage in such flagrant deceptions.

Ping!

Murder is now “pro-life.”

Orwell warned us.

Better to go to bed dead than go to bed hungry.

This should be:

Wendy Davis is pro-life in the sense that vampires are pro-life. Vampires are all about draining life from the living ergo they love life.

I almost went with the “It’s a beautiful thing, the destruction of words” Orwell quote, but no...it was just a little off.

"Blackwhite”“...this word has two mutually contradictory meanings. Applied to an opponent, it means the habit of impudently claiming that black is white, in contradiction of the plain facts. Applied to a Party member, it means a loyal willingness to say that black is white when Party discipline demands this. But it means also the ability to believe that black is white, and more, to know that black is white, and to forget that one has ever believed the contrary. This demands a continuous alteration of the past, made possible by the system of thought which really embraces all the rest, and which is known in Newspeak as doublethink.” —Orwell, 1984

Not perfect, but very close.

R.D.

People that mince words tend to be charlatans.

So. Democrats now hold chastity belt keys to women’s lives, even for those who need chastening.

Wendy my dear, your record is gossamer thin.

Just like the current occupant of 1600 Penn. Avenue in D.C.
 
The kakistocracy candidates are all the rage these days. There's gotta be a tangible strategy to derail that sort of nonsense. The longer this goes on, the less likely the strategies are going to be civil ones.

Yeah, Wendy, that’s all well and good, but the kid has to be ALIVE to be able to take advantage of all the rest of what you say you support.

I don’t know if this article mentions which office she is running for
but it is Governor. She filed her papers Friday in Austin to be on the
Democrat Primary ballot to be held Mar. 4, 2014. I doubt she’ll get
any real strong opposition but don’t know for sure.

Saw a bumper sticker today that read:

“Social justice begins in the womb.”

I wonder how long it will take liberals to label that “hate speech”.
