Dream on. In the USA there is a manufactured synergy between the cross, the gun, the flag and the military. Unless fifty percent plus one can be changed the whole will remain.
Anon 9:30 - "your insults will face retribution." Really, from an Anonymouse like you? Listen up, dickwad, take your cheap threats and pound them with about a half pound of rock salt.
.. goodness gwacious .. tread lightly near peoples invisible friends up there in th sky Mound.. Let me walk that back.. Get your BMW - out & park atop the screeds dogma phonyism creationism.. and twist the throttle.. while holding the front brake..
The posing & posturing & positioning of the purrfect 'christyans' is way beyond.. way .. ! Its Old Snot, Colonial, AssBackward baloney.. the magic underwear of all wanna be Mormons & wondrous shills for whatever suits their purpose.. If Romney was teh harbinger.. Trumph be th main course.. What a disgusting septic tank this 'election' is.. and the American people are supposed to dive in there.. and find some sort of 'meaning' or 'values' ..
The people, or at least a large segment of the public, have become the "useful idiots" of that part of the populace that has been carefully groomed, conditioned if you like. There are people who have lost the power of logic and critical thinking, who are politically and scientifically illiterate, and who have been conditioned to a specific ideology by the plethora of open mouth radio programming, faux news outlets such as FOX, and other sources of messaging.
These people are naive enough to believe that climate change is a hoax, and that Trump's vow to dismember the Paris climate accords is justified. They believe that Trump will "drain the swamp" and overthrow the establishment even though his tax reform package is calculated to benefit the already most affluent and their guy Trump has also vowed to replace the existing vacancy, and the anticipated next three, on the Supreme Court with Scalia clones. Now you have to be profoundly ignorant to imagine that a Supreme Court bench dominated by neo-Scalias would possibly be anything but pro-establishment. It betrays the shallowness of Trump supporters that they don't see any of these telltales. It just goes to show that while there may be artificial intelligence, there's also artificial stupidity.
The people, or a significant segment of them, are the "useful idiots" of this establishment you speak of. They've been quite deliberately and carefully groomed for decades through the cultivated rise of illiteracy, the decline in journalism and the substitution, in its place, of open mouth radio and faux news outlets such as FOX.
As for "their days are coming to an end" I expect you're predicting a Trump win. You probably have fantasies of Trump's promise of "draining the swamp,"i.e. Congress. Here's a hint. Learn something about America's constitutional apparatus, beginning with the division of powers. Trump cannot reform Congress. Congress can reform Congress but attempts at such reforms, such as campaign finance reform, have been a dismal failure. Trump can do sweet f%#k all to reconfigure Congress. Oh he could try a constitutional amendment but he could only suggest the idea to Congress, not direct it.
The amending power is found in Article 5 of the Constitution. Apparently Trump hasn't read it. He plainly has no idea what it says. Amendments can only be proposed by a two-thirds majority of the House and the Senate or a ratification by three fourths of the States. Notice there's nothing in there about the occupant of the White House implementing constitutional amendments?
And so this is just more Trumpian horseshit and a great many Americans who will be voting will go into the polls with a big mouthful. Pretty hilarious, eh?
Then there's Trump's vow to replace Supreme Court vacancies with clones of the ultra-establishment justice, Antonin Scalia. Think that court will be interested in "draining the swamp"?
And then there's Trump's tax reform proposal geared directly at lowering the tax bill of America's richest. Doesn't that sound revolutionary?
I could go on but I won't. There are three inarguable examples of just who the "useful idiots" will be in this election. Sorry, but thanks for playing.
"There are people who have lost the power of logic and critical thinking,"
Yes, these would be the Hillary neocon useful idiots.
For example, banks associated with Keystone XL hired Hillary to deliver 8 speeches before she announced she was running for president. Paid $1.6-million.
Only someone who has lost their power of logic and critical thinking would be dumb enough to believe these bankers paid all this money just to hear Hillary speak. Clearly this is yet another example of pay-for-play corruption the Clintons have been involved with that has netted them over $100-million.
"There are people who have lost the power of logic and critical thinking,"
These would be people who think the Paris Agreement does anything.
GHG emissions per capita have shot up 25% since 2002! The West is just exporting emissions to undeveloped countries. China signed the PA but still plans on growing emissions until 2030.
PA supporters are Big Oil useful idiots. They play along with the pretend action on global warming. Enormously gullible people.
The PA is worthless. It should be torn up and set on fire.
@ Anon 7:44 - thanks for straying completely off topic. This isn't about the Paris climate agreement or your take on it. Neither candidate has actually dealt at any length with climate change. Your views that the Paris agreement should be torn up and burned are pretty reflective of your skewed mindset. Let's recall that Trump has promised to re-open America's coal mines which pretty much suggests that you're his "useful idiot."
Whatever happened to separation of church and state?
ReplyDeleteReligion (or not) is a personal thing. It should never be used as a requirement for citizenship.
ReplyDeleteThere aren't many states that don't have some history of religious intolerance. It often manifests in bigotry when the status quo is endangered.
Dream on.

Does it not drip into your tiny little mind that your insults will face retribution?
ReplyDeleteFrom god, a flag waver a gun owner the US army or yourself .
ReplyDeleteWhere do you get the idea of an insult.
I put forward an opinion agree with it or not.

ReplyDeleteWell done. That"s the stuff.
The people are not the problem. The establishment and their useful idiots are the problem. But their days are coming to an end.

And for that, TrailBlazer, you've earned a one-way, first class ticket to the eternal fires of hell. Ouch, damn but that's hot.
