RUSH: Theres also a piece today by Thomas B. Edsall. Now, let me remind you who this guy is. Thomas B. Edsall, if Im not mistaken, has written for the Washington Post. Now hes with the New York Times. Although he may have always been with the Times. Im not sure. But it was Thomas B. Edsall that in November of 2011 wrote a piece published in, I think, the New York Times/Washington Post again, I dont recall in which he made it clear
He was writing almost as a member of the Obama presidential campaign strategy team, and he was writing that the Obama Democrat Party was going to officially write off the white working class vote for the 2012 Obama reelection effort and would instead focus on the rising total of minorities and use that as the targeted base. Because the white working class didnt like Obama much to begin with. They were Reagan Democrats of old.
Thats how I remember Thomas B. Edsall. So they basically went out and said, Were not interested in the white working class. They dont fit the Obama mode. They the old America. They dont represent the future, and the Obama team said, Were throwing in with the future, which was illegal immigrants and any other minority group they could find to put in their coalition. Well, Thomas B. Edsall is back.He has a piece here at the New York Times called The Democrats Gentrification Problem. Now, Im not gonna go into detail now, but its coming up later, and Im gonna tell you what this is basically asserting. And hes right. The Democrats Gentrification Problem is that the Democrats are the ones creating the gap between the haves and have-nots in the cities that they run, and he cites San Francisco.
He says (paraphrased): Look at all of the improvements that are happening for the rich and for the elite, the people that live near the coast or on the coast. And then you look where everybody else lives, and you have to have a map of where piles of feces are for the tourists and the residents so they can avoid it. You have to have another map where the used needles and other drug paraphernalia litter the streets. Then you have to have another map that shows tourists where to avoid the puke and the vomit. And then another map to show them where to avoid homeless enclaves.
Thomas B. Edsall is essentially indicting Democrats for creating this tremendous and widening gap between haves and have-nots. He starts out by saying, The nations largest cities and metropolitan areas home to a majority of Democratic voters are at the forefront of the partys most vexing racial, ethnic and class conflicts. Its a long piece, but theres some excerpts in it. Its kind of brave, actually. You dont see the media blaming wealthy Democrats as the problem for poor Democrats.
But let me help and sum this up. Let me give you and I just did some the practical manifestation of liberalism. Let me give you a list of things that you can count on happening, to one degree or another, anyplace that is run unchecked by massive liberal, authoritarian-type power. Homelessness. Wherever liberals and Democrats run things with no opposition, homelessness abounds. Dirty needles on the street bound. Now human feces in the street!
San Francisco. You cant get a more liberal-dominant city anywhere. Maybe Seattle. The great liberal utopia, the great liberal experiment! Massive homelessness, dirty needles strewn everywhere on the street, human feces in the street. I think along with this map that theyre making to help people avoid the piles of feces out there, maybe revive the old Tiny Tim song (singing), Tiptoe through the feces with me. Liberal tour guides and try to turn it into some kind of fun.
You also have you can guarantee that you are going to have ridiculously high taxes. Wherever liberals run the show with no opposition that counts, you have single-party rule; an intolerant, lawless party. Youre going to have sanctuary cities and sanctuary enclaves where noncitizen criminals are going to be welcomed to the neighborhood. And the noncitizen illegal immigrant criminals are going to be sheltered and protected from federal law enforcement, just as is happening in San Francisco. So if you live in a place run by the left, this is what you have to look forward to! Theres a poll in California that says 59% of Californians want increased deportations. They probably want less feces in the streets too, but nobodys gonna listen.
The US will always be in deep feces as long as there are dems and muzzies in the country.
In places like SF or NY, there are two problems with your suggestion:
It's sort of like mud wrestling with a pig. You both get dirty and the pig likes it!
Problem is, before they eat each other, theyll shove us in the boxcars first.
Congressional races are very localized and do not change allegiances in a few months. For every Republican rep that drops out, there is more than one Republican who will step up. It is the district that determines who will win, not MSM and democrat delusions.
As for Republican voter intensity, it will arrive around September/October.
CNN and the Dems are also deep in pee pee.
Rip left coalition apart?
That is why I urge FReepers, TeaPartiers, AFPer, 912ers, to reach out and knock on the doors of those who are not hard red. Like any good salesman you may only get 5% or 10% at first. But that small amount makes the difference in a close race.
Most importantly, it totally changes and confuses the enemy.
.
Right on the nose. The late Bennett Cerf actually said that the Great Society welfare state was to keep the rabble from attacking the Upper West Side.
The difference today is that the Plutocrat Marxists want the rabble to be diverted to killing and raping as many disarmed mostly white middle classAmericans to break the political power of this group. They also want to make sure enough latinos, mudslimes, and ignorant and tribalized Africans get here to ‘change the demographic’ to make sure Whitey will be permanently outnumbered and controlled by perpetual divide and conquer machinations.
Liberal cities: Where virtue signalling is believed to be actually helping ordinary people.
Now, look closely at the Brown Stains on the San Francisco map.
Notice that there IS A STRAIGHT LINE right where the poop and needles and urine stops? Notice where San Francisco stops, and the next city begins?
It only the will to do it.
Yep!
I’ve left such “friends” and developed those who are conservative. Life is too short.
Colin Mochrie’s doppelganger.
With none of their BILLIONS, I trust.
Trump *is* not really a conservative.
...but for the most part, hes close enough given alternatives - especially the alternative nov 2016.
From my point of view that gets some understanding when he veers, and some skepticism (though hes earned some leeway from immediate reactions there as well).
That is extremely similar to how we got WJBC3.
