Kudos to Paul Ryan

My comments on House Speaker Paul Ryan condemnation of Donald Trump’s reluctance to disavow support from extremist groups. But first, the video and story.

The Story via Politico:

Speaker Paul Ryan offered a rebuke of Republican front-runner Donald Trump on Tuesday, saying that any candidate hoping to be the GOP’s presidential nominee needs to “reject” bigotry.

The comments came after Trump failed to disavow the Ku Klux Klan and an endorsement by former KKK leader David Duke during a CNN interview this week. After answering a question on CNN about the white supremacist by saying he doesn’t “know anything about David Duke, OK?,” Trump later blamed a faulty earpiece for his remark.

The flap has created a major firestorm for the GOP as voters in 11 states prepare to cast primary ballots in Super Tuesday races.

Ryan, who didn’t mention Trump by name, told reporters that “no evasions and no games” could be used by anyone seeking the Republican nomination when it comes to hateful comments and racism.

“If a person wants to be the nominee of the Republican Party, there can be no evasions and no games. They must reject any group or cause that is built on bigotry. This party does not prey on people’s prejudices,” the former vice presidential candidate said.

He added, “We appeal to their highest ideals. This is the party of Lincoln. We believe that all people are created equal in the eyes of God and the government. This is fundamental.”

The remarks of the Republican Speaker of the House are an example to those wishing to enter Republican politics and everyone, Republican and Democrat alike should follow it. I only wish that there were others in the in the Republican Party who felt the same way.

Paul Ryan is correct in his assessment. The Republican Party is the party of Lincoln. The Republican Party was the party that debated Stephen A. Douglas, a Democrat, over the issue of slavery. Unfortunately, since that time, many things have happened: The New Deal, The Great Society, and The Civil Rights Act — all of which begat, The Southern Strategy.

These political policies and outright exploitation of these issues, have led to the pitting of classes and races of people against each other. Both of the political parties are guilty, they have done it and now; we have a Presidential candidate that finds himself being attacked, by the same people who created this entire culture and they want him to give obeisance.

The political chess game has started; I just hope that Trump has a better game than the accusers do.

Quote of the day

The Bernie Sanders insurgency appears to have been turned back by the vested interests of his party. But like the George McGovern insurgency in ’72, which also relied heavily upon the enthusiasm of the young, Sanders’ socialism may be the ideological future of his party.

The same may be said of the Trump insurgency. Whatever happens at Cleveland, the returns from the primaries look like the passing of the old order, the death rattle of an establishment fighting for its life, and being laughed at and mocked as it goes down.

As in 1964 and 1980, a new Republican Party is taking shape.

Defections are to be expected, and not altogether unwelcome.

More interesting reading about the neocon panic over @RealDonaldTrump

I wrote previously about the neocon, Trotskyite panic that is happening in the Republican Party.

Here is more about it, check out: Why Trump Is Panicking Robert Kagan | The National Interest

Needless to say, from now to the election in November is going to be very interesting. Not to mention from now till the end of the primaries.

 

 

Heh…..

I happen to look at my blog’s back-end and I happen to see this:

Obviously someone doesn't like me!
Obviously someone doesn’t like me!

Someone must have come to my little humble blog, didn’t like it’s contents and went through the trouble to make a fake referral; so that I would see the referral and the insult. 🙄  I’m almost…touched. 😉 😛

Well, fella, next time you want to call me a “slimball babtist fool” you could at least spell it right! 😆

Too funny, wish I knew where it came from, because I’d publish his IP for all to see.

The things we pro-trump bloggers must endure! Ha!

The Neocon Trotskyist Attacks Start on Donald Trump

Just as I predicted last night, the neoconservative Trotskyist attacks have begun. They are of course, lead by a one William Kristol; who is the son of one of the men, who pressured George W. Bush to invade and occupy Iraq — Irving Kristol. These two are of the “Ethnicity that shall never be named“, of course. So, it is natural that they would be adverse to any sort of American Nationalism.

Kristol mocking a Christian pastor by the name of Pat Robertson writes:

‘You inspire us all.” With that fulsome greeting, Pat Robertson welcomed Donald Trump this week to the stage of Regent University. According to the school’s catalogue, the university’s name invokes the fact that “a regent is one who represents Christ, our Sovereign, in whatever sphere of life he or she may be called to serve Him.” We leave it to others to decide what sovereign Donald Trump has served in his life. We will simply note that Trump seems not merely an all-too-human example of one who has on occasion fallen into the grip of some of the seven deadly sins. He seems rather a veritable apostle of most of them. A proud defender of greed, an unabashed indulger in adultery, a wanton mocker of the meek (the “losers”) of this world, Donald Trump does not inspire us.

The Trotskyite goes to say that Donald Trump does not fit his Globalist, Wilsonian Agenda:

Fine sentiments. But here’s the reality: If we nominate Donald Trump, we’re choosing the nominee who is the least likely to defeat the Democratic candidate. If we were to elect him, we’d be placing our trust in a chief executive who’s shown zero interest during his long career in shaking up Washington. And if we swear him in, we’ll have a commander in chief who is seemingly more enamored of our enemies (Vladimir Putin and Bashar al-Assad) than of a recent president of the United States, whom he accuses (falsely) of knowingly lying the country into war.

Oh man, we can hear Trump enablers say: You just don’t get it! You’re out of touch. Your points might once have been relevant. But we’ve moved on from the politics of the past. Trump is different. He’s broken all the old rules. We live in a new world. You’re making analog arguments in a digital age. You’re obsessing about evidence in an age of appearance. You’re worrying about character in a time of celebrity. Your concerns are anachronistic, your opposition futile. “You better start swimmin’ or you’ll sink like a stone / For the times they are a-changin’.”

So they say. But here’s our response: The times may be changing, but principles don’t. We choose not to dive into the infinity pool of Donald Trump’s Republican party. The water in the pool might seem refreshing, even cleansing, at first. But in truth, Trump’s waters are cold, shallow, and not fit to swim in. Rather than join the crowd and go with the flow, we choose to make our stand on dry land, with flags flying and guns blazing.

But let’s not jump the gun. So far, after the first four contests and before Super Tuesday on March 1, Donald Trump has won an impressive but not conclusive 32.7 percent of the 1.3 million or so votes cast. (Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio have gotten about 20 percent each.) There has been almost no negative advertising from super-PACs and campaigns against Trump. The mainstream media have given Trump an amazingly easy ride. Weak-kneed conservatives, desperate to sidle up to the winner, have made extraordinary excuses for him. And he’s still beatable.

But he won’t be defeated if no one tries to defeat him. Surely it’s worth fighting to save a respectable political party, an admirable political movement, and a great country from a charlatan and a demagogue. There’s nothing inspiring about the appeasement of Donald Trump. It’s the fight to defeat Donald Trump that should now inspire us all.

Yes, Mr. Kristol it is a battle and it is one, that I will wage personally against you and your Trotskyite followers until the day of the general election. You and your late Father, along with Norman and John Podhoretz were one of the biggest reasons that the Republican Party turned into a Wilsonian cesspool that it is today.

You and your globalist friends have always been proponents of free trade — that has utterly decimated the Detroit area and surrounding communities here, where I live. Therefore, it is natural that you and your bankster and elitist friends in high places of power find Trump a threat to your trust funds and piles of money that you have obtained by ill-gotten gains. Ill-gotten gains provided to you, on the backs of 4,425 dead American Soldiers and 32,223 wounded, and counting.

You see, my friends, I was not always a conservative blogger. I was one of the many Americans, out of a job, feeling very frustrated with George W. Bush’s moving of the goal posts in Iraq and extremely ticked off, because of George W. Bush, and Donald Rumsfeld’s handling of the War in Iraq. Therefore in 2006, I started a blog. When I first started out, I made alliances with the Democratic Party left, something that I deeply regret today. As the Democratic Party, was no more interested in stopping that war, than the Neoconservative Republicans were — because it made for a good wedge issue for them.

It was sometime in 2007, when I discovered the writings of a true conservative — Mr. Patrick J. Buchanan and that was my “Ah-Ha!” moment. I knew that somewhere out there, was a true conservative, who agreed with me, on things like Immigration, Trade, the Iraq War, the Bush Administration and many other subjects and issues of importance.

It was from there, that I began to research the true roots of conservatism and as I learned, it was not the values shared by the likes Kristol and Podhoretz. Theirs were values that were trumpeted by the Democratic Party prior to the Vietnam War and the rise the values heralded by the 1960’s counter-culture. This being Wilsonian foreign policy, which was a staple of the Democratic Party until the big switch that took place around that era and onward into the Carter era.

This, my friends, is why I will be voting for Donald Trump in the primary and, God willing, in the general election — not because he is a perfect Republican, whatever that means anymore. I will vote for Donald Trump, because Donald Trump will stand up against these monsters in the ivory towers and inform them that America and its people are taking back control of their government from them and are going to fix the mess that they created. This mess was not just created by President Obama, this mess goes back to end of the Kennedy era and the creation of the “great society” championed by President Johnson. Little by little, brick by brick — these monsters destroyed our Nation —- Republicans and Democrats alike, did destroy the Nation — All in the name bipartisanship and for the so-called “greater good” of the nation.

Therefore, yes, I will vote for Donald Trump and I will write against any of those who engage in slanderous attacks against Donald Trump, for whatever reason — whether it is ethnic, political, or personal. I will defend him from those sorts of attacks. I am not a fanboy or paid propagandist and I do not wear rose-colored classes, when it comes to Trump. I am not bought by Trump; my political opinion is not for sale, at all. When Trump screws up and believe me, Trump has really blown it in some areas; I will write about it and express my displeasure with it.

However, when it comes to important issues that all Americans should be concerned about; Trade, Immigration, Our Vets, and all the rest of the issues that the Trump campaign is championing, consider me on the team that will defend America. I will defend America with every fiber of my being and with every bit of bandwidth of this blog, from now, until the end of the primary season and of God’s grace allows, until the general election.

With that, I am voting for Donald J. Trump for President of the United States of America.

Video: Pat’s Thoughts: Hillary Clinton wins South Carolina primary

Here’s the video:

https://youtu.be/RBwmR2a1bkQ

It’s the lead story over at memeorandum.com.

New York Times has the full story.

Like I say in my amateur quality produced video of me trying to tell the story and fend off the urge to act like a goofball; I knew that Bernie Sanders would hit his firewall in South Carolina.

As I had mentioned in the video, Hillary Clinton has a huge African-American following in South Carolina.

Now, I’m not saying that they buy for the votes or  playing them or lie to them or anything like that. There are many South Carolinian’s white and black and many other races, who vote Democrat some of which are faithful Christians which kind of it makes me think that’s why they chose her over Bernie Sanders.

For one, Bernie Sanders is an outsider and not a Democrat, he’s not even in the party, but he’s a democratic socialist and to his minority status may play against him as well. but that’s just speculation on my part.

Either way, Super Tuesday is going to tell the tale, about what’s going to happen in the Democrat Party race.
Because if Bernie Sanders doesn’t regain any momentum, he may very well drop out after Super Tuesday.

Now as for the Republicans, I believe it’s going to continue to be bash trump all the way to the convention. I think you may see Ben Carson and John Kasich drop out before the convention and maybe after Super Tuesday, sometime or another.

But, I believe honestly that its going to be a Trump, Cruz and Rubio slug-fest all the way to the Republican convention.

Some are saying we may see a contested convention or a brokered convention and possibly be on the floor fight. However, I highly doubt that. I believe at some point there will be a compromise and you will see a Trump/Rubio ticket.

I’d lean more towards a Trump/Rubio ticket, because I think Rubio is a bit more reasonable than Ted Cruz. Trump has already said that he cannot stand Ted Cruz at all.

So,I think you’ll see Cruz probably get to the convention and bail. if anything he will appoint Ted Cruz over something. I’m thinking that Chris Christie may get an appointment to attorney general because he’s got a lawyer experience.

I think you may see I think you may see Cruz put over put over somewhere in an important place in the government or in the Trump White House or in the trump State Department and you may see other people, I think Ron Paul me get an appointment as well in his administration. So, it ought to be interesting to see that all play out.

One more thing I feel the need to point out and that’s the fact that the neoconservative right is really feeling the heat about the prospect of a Donald Trump presidency and they are doing everything in their power to try to destroy that man.

The Weekly Standard is starting to turn on him, the National Review came out with a full-throat anti trump stance and the Weekly Standard is starting to write negative stuff.

I predict here in the next couple weeks and especially into the lead-up to Super Tuesday and after that the closer we get to the convention the more the neoconservatives like Bill Kristol and John Podhartz are going to get more shrill in their opposition to Donald Trump because they stand too much to lose.

The neoconservative right stands too much to lose with getting a out of control person like Donald Trump in there, who’s not going to be the lock step with neocons when it comes to Wilsonian foreign policy.

Now, will they succeed in stopping him from getting him elected at the Republican Party convention? That is anybody’s guess, because Donald Trump has rewritten I should say the playbook for presidential election politics and they still kind of control the strings a bit with the Republican Party, not as much as they used to back before Bush got elected, but they do have some of it is sort of input and influence in the way the Republican Party works.

So, keep your eyes peeled and your ears open for anti trump sentiment to get to feverish picture in the next couple of weeks. Because the neocons are going to do everything they can to keep people from voting for him.

Because they have too much to lose, they have too much vested interests in America; in our military and our banking and in our government. So watch what happens here the next couple of weeks.

I think it goes without saying that it’s going to be very interesting to watch.

UPDATED WITH VIDEO: Violence breaks out at a KKK rally in Anaheim, California VIDEO CLEARLY SHOWS THAT BLACK PROTESTERS ATTACKED KLAN FIRST!

UPDATE: VIDEO SHOWS BLACK PROTESTERS ATTACKING KLAN:

youtube placeholder image

****

Original Story:

This is quite sad, that these knuckleheads would actually do something like this in that area and not expect to get attacked.

The Story Via LA Times LA Now Blog:

Three people were stabbed, including one who was critically wounded, and several others were arrested when a Ku Klux Klan rally in Anaheim erupted in violence Saturday, police said.

A small group of people representing the Klan had announced that it would hold a rally at Pearson Park at 1:30 p.m., police said. By 11 a.m., several dozen protesters showed up at the park to confront the Klan.

About an hour later, several men in black garb with Confederate flag patches arrived and were escorted by police around the edge of the park.

Violence erupted and some of the protesters could be seen kicking a man whose shirt read “Grand Dragon.” At some point, a protester collapsed on the ground bleeding, crying that he had been stabbed.

You see the protesters attacked first, not the Klansman. The thing I wonder is, who precisely were these protesters?  I would be willing to bet money that they were leftists that attacked these guys.

One funny thing that I saw in this article, is this right here:

Brian Levin, director of CSU San Bernardino’s Center for the Study of Hate and Extremism, said he was standing next to the man in the Grand Dragon shirt when a crowd of protesters carrying weapons swarmed the Klansmen.

A brawl broke out and one of the Klansmen was knocked to the ground and kicked. Levin said he later saw the man’s arm bleeding.

Levin said he pushed the Klan leader away as the violence continued and a protester was stabbed.

Levin said he asked the man, “How do you feel that a Jewish guy just saved your life?”

“Thank you,” the man replied, according to Levin

Honestly, I have to laugh about that quote there. I mean, what the heck did he expect him to say? “Go F**** yourself!”, or something worse? Media Bias is something humorous to behold at times. I still, however, would like to know who the protesters were. Anyone know? Maybe the skin color of those involved? …Or am I even allowed to ask such questions?

Good Local Michigan News: Ex-State Reps Todd Courser and Cindy Gamrat to face felony charges

This is such a good thing to hear. Finally, these two idiots are going to have to pay the piper for their stupidity.

Via The Detroit News, which is, by the way; A Conservative/Libertarian leaning newspaper here in Detroit. (For the out of state people that read here.)

Lansing — Attorney General Bill Schuette said Friday warrants have been issued for the arrest of former state Reps. Todd Courser and Cindy Gamrat for felony charges of misconduct in office related to their failed attempts to cover up an extramarital affair that rocked the Capitol last summer.

If convicted on all counts, Courer would face a maximum of 30 years in prison. If found guilty, Gamrat could be sentenced to up to 10 years in prison.

The charges for these two turkeys are as follows:

The accused: former state Reps. Todd Courser and Cindy Gamrat

Courser, a Lapeer-area Republican, will face four felony charges, Schuette said. They include:

■ A perjury charge for lying under oath while testifying before a special House committee about letting an aide forge his signature on a bill he wanted to file before other representatives could.

“Only legislators sign legislative proposals,” said Schuette, a former state senator.

■ Three counts of misconduct in office for allegedly lying to the House Business Office, which investigated the two lawmakers; instructing his staff to forge his signature on bills and asking House aide Ben Graham to send a fake email to Republicans across the state, which Graham refused to do.

Gamrat, R-Plainwell, will be charged with two counts of misconduct in office, punishable by up to five years in prison or a $10,000 fine for each charge, Schuette said.

Gamrat’s misconduct charges are for giving false information to the House Business Office and instructing a staff member to forge her signature to speed up the filing of draft legislation, Schuette said.

And that is not all:

Courser and Gamrat face other legal troubles.

Schuette said he will refer to Secretary of State Ruth Johnson “potential evidence of campaign finance violations involving doing political work on state time.”

The House’s expulsion charges included the use of House employees by Courser and Gamrat of House for political tasks.

Schuette also said he will notify the Michigan Attorney Grievance Commission of the charges against Courser, a Lapeer attorney.

“They will potentially review the status of his law license as this case proceeds through the judicial system,” the attorney general said.

Some might say that this is nothing more than a political set up. I call B.S.; the guy was having an affair with this woman and he tried to use his office to cover it up. Now, he is going have to face the music and that could not be a better thing to happen. The Republicans have always been painted by the liberal left, as dishonest, corrupt people. Well, now that little narrative is going to be challenged by this right here.

May these two get the maximum punishment allowed by law. They used the Tea Party Movement and rode the wave all the way to the statehouse here in Michigan and then, to beat all; they got there and became drunk with power and began an affair. Then, on top of that, they tried to cover it up. Sorry, that does not wash with me. Let them pay for their crimes.

Let them rot in jail. 😡
