Wow Joe... even when no one is in here you're still in here alone posting links to news stories you know won't be read.

Lot of people need saving in these here parts.
You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink.
I don't think you are fooling anyone.
You read all my posts.
Keep up the smart guy thing, it worked out so well in 2016.

This isn't culture war. It's worse.
By Richard Jack Rail
Progressives continue to astonish normal people with their complete incomprehension of normals (as Kurt Schlichter calls them) as human beings. Perhaps that's because they don't see us as human beings. They call us unsavory names – deplorables, bitter clingers, toothless, plus every dirty word they can think of. They throw nasty, biological things. They spit on people. They shove people, break windows, start fights, and go out of their way to ensure that everybody has a bad day.

Today's normal was a fifties liberal and, in many cases, a sixties liberal. In those days, you could be a conservative Democrat or a liberal Republican, and it raised no eyebrows. Today's prog, or extremist lefty, thinks all normals are extras from the movie Deliverance. Yet most of the time we dress about as they do, take the same public transportation, shop in the same supermarkets, and live in the same neighborhoods. If we really were toothless and illiterate, it would immediately stand out. It doesn't.

In the almost 70 years since 1950, normals haven't changed much. We still believe in God, pay taxes, get up and go to work, and keep to ourselves. We're raising families, after all, and that matters more than anything else. Unlike the prog caricature of us, we're responsible people. When we gather in large numbers, you almost can't tell we were ever there because we clean up behind ourselves. We speak quietly and respectfully, treat our women like ladies, and control our kids. Nobody fears normals because nobody has any reason to.

This contrasts starkly with progs, who gather in large numbers to riot, scream obscenities, carry signs, and trash the place. They get up in others' faces and scream and rage as if out of control, sometimes putting a normal person in fear for his life. All this is intended to communicate public unhappiness over this issue or that, but all it really puts across is that a bunch of wilding lunatics are loose again.

Liberals, similar to but reputedly more reasonable than progs, always notice the single MAGA hat in a crowd but never the destructive prog behavior raging all around them. And it's liberals who write the columns and tweets next day, dripping venom about the hateful normals. Yet any objective, disinterested observer would notice that it's progressives who regularly run out of control in angry, violent spasms of incivility and ugliness.

This isn't "culture war." Culture has nothing to do with it. It's war on normality by Brownshirts, incited or paid for by the likes of George Soros and Tom Steyer. It has now graduated from street-fighting to trying to take down the U.S. government.

I will never understand these people's hatred of America. They are unreachable by reason. It seems clear that they are trying to provoke a heavy, violent reaction from us so they can then haul out the artillery. They missed their big chance with Barama in the saddle but had been biding their time right along. They'll just continue that until their next big chance. They need to be able to declare martial law.

Be ready.
I think it's a great Dem platform for 2020. Don't you?
 
You Can't Use the Term 'Identity Politics,' Says Kamala Harris

Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) told left-wing activists at the Netroots Nation conference on Friday that the phrase “identity politics” was “pejorative” and should be rejected.
Harris had just told the conference that black women were not being given their due by the Democratic Party. She said it was “an uncomfortable truth” was that “the folks who helped build the Democratic Party and have been the backbone of the Democratic Party have not always been given equal voice in the Democratic Party, and we need to deal with that.” She went on to point out that black women had been critical to the party, as in Doug Jones’s victory last year in the special election for Senate in Alabama.

Instead of just thanking “women of color,” Harris said, “we should be electing them.”

She then went on to say:

Now, I am aware that some people would say that what I just said is plain “identity politics.” But, I have a problem, guys, with that phrase, “identity politics.” ‘Cause let’s be clear, when people say that, it’s a pejorative. That phrase is used to divide and it is used to distract. Its purpose is to minimize and marginalize issues that impact all of us. It is used to try and shut us up. Because, think about — think about when you’ve heard it raised: when we’re talking about race, when we’re talking about gender, when we’re talking about sexual orientation, when we’re talking about civil rights. And, yes, we’re talking about those issues. And we won’t be shut up. And we won’t be silenced. We won’t be silent about immigrant rights. We won’t be silent about a woman’s right to control her own body. We won’t be silence about equal opportunity and equal justice under the law.

Any thoughts on what she said Joe?

Yes, she is a victim, people of color are victims.
They should be elected by the color of their skin alone, like Obama. We all know how that worked out.
She also wants open borders and the right to kill unborn black babies.
Is that what you got out of it?

Idk if I agree. Seems to me black women have supported democrats as much as anyone... and it's fair to point out that they've gotten very little in return. Really not that different a pitch then Trumps making to the rust belt, only in this case more focused on black women who I'd expect are also thinking they system is failing them. Seems fairly mundane in today's sharply divided partisan political atmosphere.

If I were speaking of the realpolitik's, what I see this as being about is KH running for President in 2018. Have to think her chances become slimmer if Nancy Pelosi gets replaced before then by... say a women of color. What I read was her telling supporters to buckle down because it might be a while.

I just read it cuz I felt bad for you. You plainly have no friends or life, and spend all day alone at a computer monitoring the political section of a youth soccer forum. Weekdays, weekends, the middle of the night... you literally are always in here posting.
