When Hillary Clinton picked Virginia Senator Tim Kaine as her VP running mate, the media largely portrayed him as a middle-of-the-road candidate who would give the Democrat ticket a centrist orientation. The Washington Post cited Kaine's relatively moderate persona. USA Today said he is considered a safe pick a swing-state moderate who appeals to independent voters. And the New York Times referenced Kaine's credentials as a moderate.
Nothing could be further from the truth.
Kaine strongly favors government-enforced affirmative-action policies designed to favor nonwhites and women in hiring and college admissions practices; a steeply progressive income-tax structure where high earners pay disproportionately high rates; and the implementation of a pathway-to-citizenship for illegal aliens. Moreover, he believes that Voter ID laws make it unnecessarily difficult for people to vote in political elections; that campaign finance reforms should be instituted to reduce the influence of money in elections; that the principle of separation-of-church-and-state makes school prayer, government funding for religious organizations, and the posting of the Ten Commandments in public places impermissible; that the use of vouchers for school choice constitutes bad public policy; and that the nationalization of banks and corporations is more appropriate than government bailouts of those entities when they fail economically.
Kaine's position on the Iran nuclear deal is exactly what you would expect from a dyed-in-the-wool leftist. Early last year, Kaine objected strenuously when Republican House Speaker John Boehner invited Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to speak to Congress about the gravity of the growing Iranian nuclear threat and his profound disagreement with the negotiated deal that the Obama Administration was pursuing with Iran. Kaine joined seven other Senate Democrats in boycotting Netanyahus speech. That summer,

Hey Timmy, far left is far wrong.
I’m shocked the doorknob speaks!
Kaine would not have been picked unless he was known to the bolsheviks to be at least a sympathizer who won’t get in the way but more likely an enthusiastic enabler of the crypto sort. The bolshevik hive fully expects the VP to take over from the decrepit Clinton at some point in her first term. There is no way her health allows her to finish a full term. The bolshies are counting on that. They’ve calculated that their totalitarian project will be in safe hands when Kaine takes over. Kaine is a wolf in a koala costume.
If you remove the wrapper, Tim Kaine is a Liberation Theology Catholic. That is a fancy word for being Communist.
Just a few days ago Kaine said that being Clinton’s running mate makes him feel like he’s been kidnapped. Haven’t seen him sense. Maybe Clinton has him locked in her basement, hoping that 0bama will send her $100 MILLION in small bills for his release.
Kaine is tied with 4 other Senators at 2% on Heritage Actions Scorecard.
Kaine looks like a barely contained closeted Sodomite. All across the country, millions of gaydars are going off.
He looks demented!
I was surprised to read he was married as what I had read previously was he had never married and was a bit suspect as to gender.
Kaine goes to a majority black catholic church.Must be the black Catholics of that church have no problem with him helping the abortion movement murder the black population
I found it quite interesting that during his speech to Baptist Democrats in New Orleans last Thursday - that he named Republicans as the party of Lincoln and it was democrats were for segregation at schools. He also named each time a Republican voted for equal rights] I kept waiting for the but. However, there really wasn’t any. He did say that just before and mostly during Obama’s campaign Republicans seemed to be squashing or making it difficult for minorities to vote. Which is not true. Especially during Obama’s first election, there was a HUGE amount of fraud - especially by ACORN.
Someone tell me why would he prop up Republicans? Is it because his father-in-law was a Republican? I’m not sure of his motivation?
Below are the portions of the video that I am referring to:
Watch from 44:40 - 46:00 - props up Republican voting rights
and from 32:05 - 33:10 - he admits it was democrats that segregated blacks and white and it republicans who integrated schools.
Maybe Kaine is pretty much where other Washington Democrats are. Sometimes they admit it. Some times they don't.
This is fishy, though:
that the nationalization of banks and corporations is more appropriate than government bailouts of those entities when they fail economically.
Kaine got in trouble with Warren-Sanders Democrats for being too soft on the big banks. He's also spending time reassuring big Wall Street contributors.
Maybe if the country were facing another Great Depression, he'd support nationalization, but I doubt it's a priority or something he really wants. Radicalism usually cools down when the real financial interests of contributors are at stake. Whatever the deal is with bathrooms and wedding cakes, money business is serious.
Do you think that is why they chose him? Why do you think he gave Republicans credit for being the party that integrated public schools in the south to a black congregation?
Possibly reaching across the aisle for Indy and swing voters. He may be trying to appeal to the ones that Hillary never would appeal to otherwise. Because you know she would never give credit like that even though it’s true.
It will be interesting to see how he is used by the campaign.
Perhaps, casting that rod our, then pull em in for slaughter. Dems do not compromise.
Yep. Tim Kaine was chosen for a specific reason. Every move is calculated. Anyone who would get into partnership with the Clintons is complicit in their evil acts. And a part of their deception.
Do you remember the Kaine Videos I referred to? The ones with him propping up Republicans? Well, they are no longer accessible!
Surprise. Surprise. Amazing that they really do track all that stuff.
The Iran deal
To sell it: are you with Obama or Israel & the Republicans
