Frank Luntz asks how you’d feel if someone called your hometown a s**thole, gets his answer
Twitchy ^ | 01-15-2018 | Brett T

Posted on 01/15/2018 8:46:28 PM PST by Kevin in California

Count Frank Luntz among those unimpressed by President Trump’s alleged use of the word “shithole” during an Oval Office meeting about DACA, immigration, and border security. He didn’t tear up over it on air like Anderson Cooper, but still …

Anybody who is truly offended when their home/city/county/country is called an s-—hole should demonstrate their bona fides and return post-haste!

Several people have ridiculed Luntz’s toupee.

Are we really sure about that ?

I can remember Frank Luntz doing election night coverage back in the mid-90s, and his hair looks exactly the same.

Maybe he colors it. But toupee? I don't see it.

Nah; kick everybody out and turn it into a gigantic military base, not in the military of the USA, out you go.
Oh, by the way, take their citizen ship away from them, they can be REFUGEES of the UNITED NATIONS and OF THE WORLD.

Frank, Durbin is known for his mendacity...you believe him over the President's word and that of Tom Cotton? This is what makes me ashamed of a fellow American....it should make you ashamed also that any one especially a celebrity tries profanely to degrade our President, when Robert De Niro only degrades himself in spades!

Living in the Baltimore suburbs, I know how you feel.
Baltimore used to be fondly known as “Charm City.”
Now, it rivals Chicago for the murder capital of the country.

The crime rate is disturbingly high in my county as well.
Thankfully, I am in a rather rural area. Still, there have been close calls and that has kept me on edge.

My county did vote overwhelmingly for President Trump, but Baltimore and the suburban counties surrounding the Swamp usually rule the day over the Eastern Shore and Western section of Maryland.

Praying that law and order is restored someday soon to sh*tholes like Baltimore.
President Trump was absolutely right in using whatever strong language he did last week.

As Bill Mitchell pondered on his twitter, we wouldn’t be incurring all these illegals breaching our borders if their respective homelands weren’t such sh*tholes to begin with!!

Don’t know what they said but I was born and raised in Baltimore, spent time in Guatemala, So. Vietnam, Taiwan and So. Korea.

I know a shithole when I see one and Baltimore is worst than Haiti because it was ruined by liberal Democrats, not storms and earthquakes.

There is a difference.

Oh, by the way, somebody on the Left tell me that the slums of Brazil aren’t “human shitholes”. The same for some in India, Bangladesh, So. Africa, Zimbabwe, Nigeria, the Congo, Pakistan, No. Korea, Siberia, and now some Moslem-occupied “no-Go Zones” in Europe.

And fans of Chavez and Maduro, tell me that Venezuela isn’t becoming one big “shithole” in the urban areas thanks to “Chavezism/the communist Bolivarian Revolution/and typical Marxist greed”?

And if you don’t think calling a country a “shithole” necessarily means the people are bad, tell me how you‘d react if someone called your hometown the same thing

I lived in Pecos, Texas and also Nigeria. I am not offended!

Fortunately Pecos was just a normal S---hole. Nigeria was Pecos on steroids, bribes, corruption, violence, tribalism, real ethnic hatred based on religion or tribe, ethnic cleansing also called murder, and disease.

The most beautiful thing in Nigeria was a great big blue DC-10 of British Caledonia. It would carry me back to London and civilization. Unfortunately it often brought me back to Lagos. I was paid a lot of money, and I sure as hell earned it.

#NeverTrump GOPe stooge Frank Luntz.

Just out of curiosity what was Frank Luntz predicting on the day before election day relative to Trumps possible victory. In the far past I would watch him but his audience was so obviously picked to give a certain answer it was boringly stupid. I found it moderately amusing but informative a zero.

What would you rather be?
Messy, like Steve Bannon, or a slob like Frank Luntz?


Bannon-At least he looks like he has a few drinks and doesn’t have to take his wig off every night.

You are correct. See my post #51.

Relative to Venezuela you are also correct. I lived there in the early 70s and it was great. It had the highest standard of living in South America. The stores were full of high quality food at a fair price. Life was very good there then. It was not a S—thole then.

The communist Chavez and his anointed successor Maduro the Communist turned Venezuela into a real S—thole.

Actually Chavez did win his first election fairly. All elections since were not won fairly. They were stolen.

Relative to the people of Venezuela they are good people and do not deserve to live in a great nation that was turned into a Sh-thole by the communists.

Venezuela will be a free nation within three years. There will be much blood shed. Much of the blood will be in the steets, and much more will never be seen. It is a very ugly thing that will happen. However, it is far less ugly than what the communist government of Venezuela has done to its people. The nexus of the fight will come from the Western States of Zulia and Merida. Actually today they are in a quasi state of rebellion by the people. The Southern States of Venezuela are poor. They will just do what they need to survive and will not be much of a factor.

Venezuela is now in a state of economic collapse. The top of the military is political and can be bought by the government. Soon food and money will not be available for the rank and file of the military. There will be a coup and it is soon.

When I get off the freeway right here in my hood, I can see that it is a literal sh*thole. Sometimes even the hazmat trucks are there under the offramp cleaning the sh*t.

Sometimes toupees squeeze too hard on the frontal lobe. Poor Luntz.

Zip up, Luntz.

Your bias is hanging out.

O yes. We are really sure.

And there is no excuse for it. I even feel sorry for the 12 nutria who died to make it.

I’m afraid there is very little hope for my home town of S. Hithole, but N. Hithole is okay.
