Fit to print? NY Times smears GOP 'bigotry,' 'insanity'
Washington Examiner ^ | 11/26/15 | Pete Kasperowicz

Posted on 11/26/2015 7:03:08 PM PST by markomalley

The New York Times opined Thursday that Sen. Bernie Sanders has the right idea on immigration, and that most Republicans support a plan that gone "well beyond the usual nativist bigotry."

"Republican presidential candidates are arguing, in all seriousness, about sealing the border with fantastical 2,000-mile fences and weaponized drones; merging state, local and federal authorities and private prisons into one all-seeing immigration police state; forcibly registering American Muslims; mass-deporting 11 million Mexicans and others in a 21st century Trail of Tears; and turning away thousands of refugees fleeing war and terrorism in the Middle East," the Times said.

The paper cheered Sanders this week for offering a plan that "turns away from the insanity."

Sanders said he would rely on executive actions to give relief to illegal immigrants, and would push for a pathway to citizenship for illegal immigrants after five years. The Times said this plan "affirms the humane and sensible principle" that those illegally in the U.S. should "stay and contribute."

Sanders also said he would try to boost federal border agents, in exchange for pulling state and local police off the mission of enforcing federal laws.

The Times supported Sanders' call to support sanctuary cities, which the paper said "protect public safety" by "building trust between immigrant communities and local law enforcement." Many Republicans and even some Democrats have said San Francisco's sanctuary city policy led to the death of Kate Steinle, when a formerly deported immigrant shot and killed her this year.

The editorial concluded by saying GOP candidates are "filling the air with lies and irrational promises" to get elected.

New York Times?

Who seriously reads it?

They’re out of touch with country.

The GOP candidate whose position - as in Jeb Bush - echoes their open borders view, is polling only 5%!

Bernie Sanders will never be the Democratic nominee.

Note to the Left: Thats’s what’s called saving your nation and protecting them from foreign invaders. Maybe if they shared some of their own money instead of ours and had to work for it they’d get it.

His sudden death will be a tragedy.

The New York times has gotten into gutter politics early in the campaign. They are really smearing the mud around.

As Trump said, they’re more obsessed with attacking him than they are with keeping their failing business afloat.

He gives a rats’ ass what they think about him.

It should forever be referred to as the Mexican New York Times by dint of its ownership and agenda.

Nativism and bigotry are not synonymous or even complementary. Nativism is a more sinister sounding term for nationalism ie patriotism. It’s no surprise that Marxists dislike patriotism but it’s hardly the evil they describe.

As for ‘bigotry,’ are Latino Americans bigots because they don’t want a flood of Third World detritus? Are black Americans bigots because they don’t want Muslim Somalis fomenting terrorism?

Bigot is now an acronym:
Boohoo
I
Got
Out
Thought

The working men have no country. We cannot take from them what they have not got. Since the proletariat must first of all acquire political supremacy, must rise to be the leading class of the nation, must constitute itself the nation, it is so far, itself national, though not in the bourgeois sense of the word.

National differences and antagonism between peoples are daily more and more vanishing, owing to the development of the bourgeoisie, to freedom of commerce, to the world market, to uniformity in the mode of production and in the conditions of life corresponding thereto. The supremacy of the proletariat will cause them to vanish still faster. United action, of the leading civilised countries at least, is one of the first conditions for the emancipation of the proletariat.

In proportion as the exploitation of one individual by another will also be put an end to, the exploitation of one nation by another will also be put an end to. In proportion as the antagonism between classes within the nation vanishes, the hostility of one nation to another will come to an end.


Karl Marx, "The Communist Manifesto"

I think there needs to be two Americas. one for them, and one for us. I know that was tried in the past and it didn’t work out so well. But perhaps it’s time to give it another shot..... One thing is for sure, I do not want to live in their country, & I do not want them living in mine
