Liberals lie not only because the truth repels them like work repels a Democrat but because they hope to force you into accepting their lie and therefore becoming complicit in their deceit. Lying is an exercise of power; every lie we allow to pass uncontested is a small victory for these cultural trolls. Time to troll them right back.
Let’s start with the Texas clock kid lie. We all know that kid absolutely should have been confronted about his gadget, which would not have made it through a TSA checkpoint without a hundred government flunkies freaking out. Note that if there was an overreaction in locking him up, it was by other government flunkies – Barack Obama’s chosen people. This is why there should be many fewer of them.
But instead of blaming the zero tolerance-loving quasi-fascists who uniformly vote for him and his ilk, Obama could not pass up on an opportunity to demonstrate his contempt for the American people. He jumped at the chance to call his fellow Americans hideous racists, but that’s a lie.
Under the lie du jour, the alleged racist thought process must have been something along the lines of:
“Okay, this kid brought a weird, wiry electronic device into our school. Luckily, no one ever tries to hurt schoolkids, and certainly no Muslim male has ever tried or succeeded at going on a killing spree in Texas that I can recall. Now, from my extensive explosive ordnance training at schoolteacher school, I can see that this bundle of wires and circuits is clearly a clock, but since this kid’s ancestors came from some Muslim country, I think I’ll falsely accuse him of crime and take all the inherent risks of making a false criminal accusation because my senseless hatred is so intense, even though it has never manifested before this moment. ‘Merica.”
Hmmm. Sounds legit. Certainly more legit than, “I’m a not-to-bright government employee in an environment where freaks attack schools and this kid came in with a strange device and it got out of hand.”
Yeah, with Homeland Security still telling us, “If you see something, say something,” Obama’s meeting with his DHS secretary must be super-awkward. Maybe DHS could change it’s admonition to, “If you see something, say something, unless it’s a Muslim doing the something, in which case you’re rolling the dice because if you’re wrong President Fail and his MSM transcriptionists will call you a racist.”
In the aftermath, some people are saying this was a deliberate hoax by the family to create an incident, and if it was it succeeded better than they could have ever hoped thanks to Obama. Interestingly, you don’t have to be an Islamic mullah to fool Obama. Apparently, you can be a 14 year-old Muslim kid and make a fool out of him too.
The lesson for us? Reject the lies. After this lie came out, hordes of lonely liberals took to social media sharing their hitherto unknown expertise in the detection of Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs), toeing the Obama line that this was further evidence of America’s grotesque racism. But we normals fought back. Memes went up comparing clock brat’s creation with real bombs. Folks posted photos of various jihadi freakshows where they paraded kids around dressed as suicide bombers. Vets commented on how the “clock” looked a lot like the bombs that blew off their limbs. And moms observed that their kids’ lives were significantly more important than the feelings of some urchin who walked into a classroom with a beeping box of electrical components that would get him tackled by the Secret Service if he brought it within a mile of the Oval Office.
Oh, and folks started digging into the gadget itself, like how it was apparently merely a disassembled clock. Yah science! They also dug into the (Shocker!) activist history of the kid’s dad. Uh oh liberals, there goes your narrative.
We have seen a lot of liberal lies lately, which is not surprising since they have nothing left, and we’ve offered powerful pushback that frustrates and annoys them. In fact, it annoys them so much that Robert Redford just made a movie about the start of the pushback to the Big Lies. In what is apparently his first foray into science fiction, Dan Rather’s bundle of letters about George W. Bush’s National Guard service were apparently generated by a modern Microsoft Word program that traveled back in time to the early 1970s.
With regard to Hillary Clinton, you have her coterie of hacks piping up about how having classified material on your computer is no big deal and how everybody does it and blah blah blah. And in response, battalions of us who actually worked with classified material responded with truth – that anyone not useful to the Obama administration would be in an orange jumpsuit in about two seconds after doing one one-thousandth of what HRC indisputably did.
Damn that internet and its ability to allow the truth to get past the Democrat steno pool that is the mainstream media! No wonder Hillary is making a central plank of her platform changing the Constitution to allow her to make it a crime to be critical of her. As a result of all this freedom of speech, her favorability ratings are plummeting. Clearly it must be stopped; it’s so serious that the Democrats are starting to think Joe Biden is the answer to their problems.
But we aren’t going to stop. Conservatives released the videos of the butchers at Planned Parenthood doing exactly what we knew they were doing and the liberals freaked out. They particularly freaked out because Carly Fiorina used a CNN debate watched by 23 million Americans to talk about these sick, savage, baby-dismembering sociopaths. And their response was simply to lie – “None of the videos actually showed Planned Parenthood dismembering babies and selling off the parts!” Interestingly, their supporting argument is, “But there would be nothing wrong with Planned Parenthood dismembering babies and selling off the parts!”
Liberals count on people not actually watching the videos, and the MSM has cooperated by pretending that the revelation that an organization subsidized by taxpayers to the tune of $500 million is dismembering babies and selling off the parts is a non-story and not reporting it. But thanks to alternative media, we conservatives can direct normal citizens to the key clips. (Note: As of three days after the debate, the front page of Carly’s poorly designed website does not have a link to the video clips she cited in her devastating debate soliloquy. As a CEO, this is where you start demanding your staff get off their rears and start performing.)
Liberals have only lies and a complicit media. We have the truth and we now have the tools to fight for it. Every one of us – on social media, in personal interactions – needs to stop nodding along and start raising our voice. Troll them back with the truth.
It’s amazing how willfully hateful some people can be towards Donald. Methinks some mirrors need to be passed out to the critics.
By the way nobody welches on creditors like, say, the Kennedys or Clintons... who are you trying to have America rush into the arms of?
Trump’s BUSINESS bankruptcies (he never had personal ones) were Chapter 11. That is a restructure, not a walkaway.
Facts are facts. Trump is responsible for misrepresenting the facts.
Methinks some mirrors need to be passed out to the critics.
A post devoid of content.
As for MALDEF lawsuits... look, the Obama administration is just rolling over. Trump won’t.
Trump presented the view that would highlight his ability to negotiate. Trump would not have to line item veto anything. It is pertinent to look at this view of things.
Devoid of content? You ipso facto declare yourself void of hypocrisy when it is seething out everywhere?
I have not selected a candidate to support, although I am leaning toward Cruz.
Trump’s BUSINESS bankruptcies (he never had personal ones) were Chapter 11. That is a restructure, not a walkaway.
Duh. Businesses he controlled made promises that were not kept.
And tell me what your dear leaning to boy Cruz did about the Iran deal.
And if you pick someone who leaves too bad a taste in America’s mouth, America sits out and we get the Democrat.
Hurrah for you.
You tried to equate Chapter 11 to a complete abandonment of a quest to reform immigration. How about YOU check YOURSELF for inapt comparisons.
If you would elect a President who would lie willfully then you're right there with Xero's athletic supporters.
Trump would not have to line item veto anything.
There is a difference between running a State and a corporation. With a State, the legislature has specified how the budget is assembled and the latitude the executive has to hire or fire. Under a civil service system, Walker was bound to accept the budget requests assembled by his Democrat enemies in those agencies. The line veto is his only realistic option until those people can be replaced. If you expect Trump to be able to turn over the entire Federal bureaucracy you will be sadly disappointed.
There is no Federal line item veto.
It is pertinent to look at this view of things.
No, it's not.
The Corker vote and the TPA are my two reasons not to support him fully.
Oh boy! The RINO war cry of "He can win!"
You've really stepped up to the level of gutless weasel there. Did you support Arnold too?
No wonder Hillary is making a central plank of her platform changing the Constitution to allow her to make it a crime to be critical of her.The link is to a discussion of Campaign Finance “Reform.” The discussion of Citizen’s United depends on a distinction between electronic (TV, Cable) and paper-and-ink idea propagation. The central fallacy is that “the Constitution didn’t discuss any technology other than the printing press.” But that is a naively literal reading:
It is not true that the Constitution is reactionary; the Constitution anticipates and forwards progress. TV, Cable - actually, all electronic communication technology, including the internet - is simply the playing out of the logic of the Constitution itself.
- Article 1 Section 8. :
- The Congress shall have power . . . To promote the progress of science and useful arts, by securing for limited times to authors and inventors the exclusive right to their respective writings and discoveries . . .
does not establish a ceiling over the rights of the people. Rather, as
- Amendment 1:
- Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
makes plain, the First Amendment is to be understood only as a floor under our right to express ourselves. Money is not speech, but it is undeniable that nobody can have freedom of the press if he cannot freely spend his own money on ink, paper, printing presses, and any other technological means which reflects “the progress of science and useful arts” applied to the problems which the literal printing press address.
- Amendment 9 :
- The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.
"Campaign Finance Reform” is an abuse of our rights, and should be challenged in court. There is at present a 5-4 majority on SCOTUS to uphold the truth. It is a disgrace that any “CFR” law was ever passed, let alone been upheld in the courts. If there is a real requirement for reform, Article V is the answer - not for the people, but for the government to undertake.
By mentioning Arnold you have proven you have lost it.
Excellent article.
Trump shared the budget as it was presented to Walker. Walker had the right to protest that this was not FAIR, but technically it was not a LIE.
I give condolences to you about Walker’s quitting. I’d have thought he would make mincemeat out of Trump if things are as alleged.
You still don’t get the point, which is that if Trump was in Walker’s position, Trump might have not needed a line item veto. Of course that does not carry over directly to the presidency (no line item veto) but it carries over to other budget negotiation processes. If you can mix and match apples and oranges, well so can I.
