This is really still a preview of an intended broader publication. It is not yet linked to any menus. Because it is intended to be a further endorsement of Donald Trump, I wanted to invite criticism of fellow Trump supporters, to make sure it is in as effective a form as possible.
In brief, we know that everything we believe in is on the line now. We have to put our arguments in the best form possible. All criticism is invited.
1. The leadership of the Democratic Party, for at least a generation, has waged a virtually continuous attack on traditional American values, traditions and long term interests. This assault may be seen in an immigration policy, which since 1965 has increasingly favored those with the least ties to the roots & culture of earlier American settlers--thus deliberately challenging continuation of the existing American culture; observed in the appointment of "activist" Judges & Bureau Administrators, who have consistently challenged the legal bases and efforts to preserve traditional concepts of individual liberty, property rights & public expressions of Faith, as well as the time honored concept of the family, as the essential foundation for any viable social structure.
Fellows, I know you will not be shy in telling me, where I go wrong?
I thing you meant:... criticism from fellow Trump supporters...
Thanks for getting into the spirit. The last think I seek is to discourage anyone on our side.
"...the Clinton/Obama movement has sought to mask the betrayal of heritage by creating a succession of "straw- incidents"; substituting endless appeals for sympathy against events taken out of context; their effort to buffer their challenged images against public recognition of real problems & serious provocations. A prime example would be the use of an Army Captain, who died honorably in combat, as a prop to cover his father--who obviously has very different values than his son, and little honor--in an effort to support Hillary Clinton, by slandering Donald Trump. This sort of verbalized 'smoke & mirrors,' featuring sham proclamations of "love" & pretentious, never really defined, declarations of "not who we are," as a reason not to debate--or even discuss the real issues & real problems with accepting Obama/Clinton fantasies on immigration & trade--is their answer to anyone, who dares question the path they have set.
bump to the excerpt.
Don’t know, but it is a phrase that Trump detractors keep employing, disdainfully, as in “that is not who we are,” in expressing their outrage that he would actually want to screen those entering the United States, to make certain just who they are, and what they intend.
bump to #2
Go back and read the article about human sacrifice from a couple weeks ago. It was excellent.
Do you have a title or a link?
My favorite leftism: “We can have that conversation...” ...at some later, unspecified time...
...but not now. Right now, you need to shut up and do what we say, or we will destroy you!
You’re correct, of course. RATs have to make the rubes feel, because they surely don’t want them to think. All of the love, hate, together, “not who we are” blather is not to be taken seriously. Just for the benefit of the gullible.
I read the entire piece and like it very much.
Pretty sickening! My only criticism would be that the writer has still not fully grasped that even the underlying assumptions of those in the grips of that deranged mindset are erroneous. They have accepted an "historic" narrative, which contains much that is misleading; including the fact that it ignores that a part of the problem in contemporary Black communities--and including those in the time frames that the writer refers to--is a direct result of that deranged mindset.
The greatest victims, today, of Obama's war on the Police, for example, are the millions of law abiding Black Americans, who want the Police to protect them against the lawless, hoodlum element; but are cowed into silence.
Leaders like Sheriff Clarke in Milwaukee understand this, but they are largely ignored by the Obama adoring Leftist mass media & their academic mentors.
The appeal to the gullible is one thing; but much of their narrative—indeed much of like narratives all the way back to Genesis;—is a deliberate effort to focus anyone susceptible on a sense of grievance. It is a very, very destructive gambit. It destroys the future prospects of most of those who bite! (The exception, of course, being the demagogues & scoundrels, who use that methodology to accumulate power & malevolnet influence.)
I made some minor, stylistic changes, this morning. Nothing that changes the thought content.
