The false comparison of Weiner and Trump
americanthinker.com ^ | 11/1/2016 | David Lawrence

Posted on 11/01/2016 5:16:30 AM PDT by rktman

I spoke to a Jewish lawyer liberal friend of mine, and he compared Donald Trump's picking up women twenty years ago to Anthony Weiner's recent texting his privates to a fifteen-year-old girl.

What is wrong with liberals that they can't distinguish perversion from flirtation?

Actually, liberals can't distinguish anything. They mistake policing through stop and frisk into bigotry. They throw out the baby with the bathwater and leave decent people to be harassed by thugs.

They watch Muslims decapitate captives and burn them in cages. They justify this because Americans have occasionally accidentally bombed people who were using captives as human shields.

Trust us Mr. Lawrence, there is NOT a way to figure out libs. No logic, common sense (two friggin' words!) or reasoning is allowed. They are 'right' and everybody who disagrees with them is wrong. No argument allowed. They can't define hypocrisy because they wouldn't be able to recognize if it slapped them in the face. And sometimes I'd like to. Head, meet brick wall.

It is not that they can’t see the difference, it is just that they are flat out liars. It is a smear. Just like when Anderson Cooper asked Trump if he had ever assaulted any women. The question was a smear. He would never ask Bill Clinton that question. He would never ask Hillary if she lied about her emails, although for both, the answer is yes.

“They are ‘right’ and everybody who disagrees with them is wrong. No argument allowed.”

In my experience, everyone who disagrees with them is regarded as both evil and criminally stupid.

It’s a very short essay but I have one question: why did he send his son to Columbia? Until wealthy conservatives stop sending their kids to these corrupt universities - in, of course, an attempt to put his kid into all the institutions he claims are corrupted - nothing will change no matter how good the short essay is.

They believe that “the ends justify the means”.

Deep down, the Left is at war with Judeo-Christian values. Everything they embrace furthers the struggle against these values. Abortion, homosexuality, atheism, immorality, etc.

They see Muslims behaving really, really badly? They will say nothing. Criticizing Muslims does not contribute to the destruction of Judeo-Christian values. So why bother?

They see Americans behaving mildly inappropriately? The Left will be outraged and call for drastic social change in order to deal with the scandal. This is how they push their agenda.

And this is how and why they conflate flirtation with pedophilia. They find it useful.

Liberals have always thrown out the baby with the bathwater. That’s what the 1960’s and 70’s was about. Society had a few issues, so instead of cherry-picking what was wrong, just have a social revolution and toss all the old values aside in favor of new, untested ones.

Example on “feminism” and sexual mores. Instead of attacking certain double standards, for example, the idea that it is tolerable for husbands to have affairs, but not wives.

Instead of holding men accountable for their behavior, they decided that women should participate as equals in the moral rot of values.

Well, he did say he should have demanded a refund. I suppose there are those out there that will take a Columbia grad over a grad from, say, Eastern New Mexico University because “prestige”. Funny how people fail to realize that just because you made it through one of those “elite” university does not convey any more brilliance than a “less prestigious” university.

It's always amusing and infuriating that libs are for any and all sexual practice or deviance -- they celebrate them, they codify them in law -- and yet, they simultaneously expect us to view them as a group of vestal virgins at the slightest hint of impropriety by a Repub. I despise these people. I absolutely despise them.

The Rat supporters on social media are going on about an up coming case against Trump regarding sex with a minor. What the heck are they talking about?

Yes, it’s a resume enhancer to go to one of these corrupt institutions; and conservatives always demand their money back...once they’ve ensured their children a nice cushy future in either Washington or NYC. So, in a sense, they’re just as corrupt as the libs they claim to dislike.

They’re trying to connect him to Jeffrey Epstein. Don’t fall for it. They’re hoping that wobbly conservatives will abandon him.

Rats use it as a wedge issue to suppress conservative turnout. That is all.

In 2006 they outted to faggots in the GOP (a toe tapper at the airport and a guy who engaged in sexually charged texts but no mention of photos or a meetup) and spun that as a culture of corruption that is why Pelosi and Reid should take Congress.

Most of us Catholics have a deep respect for the attribute of ‘discernment’. Discernment is highly desirable, but it is a gift. A person can develop the gift, like any talent, into a deeper, richer experience. A person who does not have the gift of discernment has nothing to develop. And that is the situation in which most progressives find themselves.
