Lord Protector Posted July 25, 2016 Posted July 25, 2016 (edited) Ted Cruz and the Trump Takeover By Patrick J. Buchanan The self-righteousness and smugness of Ted Cruz in refusing to endorse Donald Trump, then walking off stage in Cleveland, smirking amidst the boos, takes the mind back in time. At the Cow Palace in San Francisco in July of 1964, Gov. Nelson Rockefeller, having been defeated by Barry Goldwater, took the podium to introduce a platform plank denouncing “extremism.” Implication: Goldwater’s campaign is saturated with extremists. Purpose: Advertise Rocky’s superior morality. Smug and self-righteous, Rocky brayed at the curses and insults, “It’s a free country, ladies and gentlemen.” Rocky was finished. He would never win the nomination. Richard Nixon took another road, endorsed Goldwater, spoke for him in San Francisco, campaigned for him across America. And in 1968, with Goldwater’s backing, Nixon would rout Govs. George Romney and Rockefeller, and win the presidency, twice. Sometimes, loyalty pays off. About Cruz, a prediction: He will not be the nominee in 2020. He will never be the nominee. If Trump wins, Cruz is cooked. If Trump loses, his people will not forget the Brutus who stuck the knife in his back. To any who read Allen Drury’s “Advise and Consent” or saw the movie, Ted Cruz is the Senator Fred Van Ackerman of his generation. Yet, beyond the denunciations of Trump and disavowals of his candidacy, something larger is going on here. The Goldwaterites were not only dethroning the East Coast liberal establishment of Rockefeller, but saying goodbye to the Republicanism of President Eisenhower and Vice President Nixon. Something new was being born, and births are not a pretty sight. What was being born was a new Republican Party. It would be dominated, after Nixon, by conservatives, who would seek to dump the Accidental President, Gerald R. Ford, in 1976. They would recapture the party in 1980, and help elect and re-elect Ronald Reagan. Vice President George H. W. Bush won in 1988 through the exploitation of cultural and social issues. His Democratic rival, Gov. Michael Dukakis, opposed the death penalty, opposed public school kids taking the Pledge of Allegiance, and had a progressive program to give weekend passes to convicted killers and rapists like Willie Horton. Once this became known, thanks to Bush campaign manager Lee Atwater, the Little Duke was done. The Dukakis tank ride in that helmet, to show his aptitude to be commander-in-chief, probably did not help. The crisis of today’s Republican Party stems from a failure to recognize, after Reagan went home, and during the presidency of George H. W. Bush, that America now faced a new set of challenges. By 1991, America’s border was bleeding. Thousands were walking in from Mexico every weekend. The hundreds of thousands arriving legally, the vast majority of them Third World poor, began putting downward pressure on working-class wages. Soon, these immigrants would begin voting for the welfare state on which their families depended, and support the Party of Government. By 1991, free trade had begun to send our factories and jobs overseas and de-industrialize America. By 1991, an epoch in world history had ended. With the collapse of the Soviet Empire, the Cold War was suddenly over. America had prevailed. “As our case is new,” said Lincoln, “so we must think anew and act anew.” Bush Republicans did not think anew or act anew. They were like football coaches who still swore by the single-wing offense, after George Halas’ Chicago Bears, the “Monsters of the Midway,” used the T-formation to score 11 touchdowns and beat the Washington Redskins in the 1940 NFL championship game, 73-0. What paralyzed the Republicans of a generation ago? What blinded them from seeing and blocked them from acting on the new realities? Ideology, political correctness, a reflexive recoil against new thinking, and an innate inability to adapt. The ideology was a belief in free trade that borders on the cultic, though free trade had been rejected by America’s greatest leaders: Washington, Madison, Hamilton, Lincoln and Theodore Roosevelt. The political correctness stemmed from a fear of being called racist and xenophobic so paralyzing, so overpowering, that some Republicans would ship the entire Third World over here, rather than have it thought they would ever consider the race, ethnicity or religion of those repopulating America. The inability to adapt was seen when our Cold War adversary extended a hand in friendship, and the War Party slapped it away. Rather than shed Cold War alliances and rebuild our country, we looked around for new commitments, new allies, new wars to fight to “end tyranny in our world.” These wars had less to do with threats to vital interests, than with providing now-obsolete Cold Warriors with arguments to maintain their claims on national resources and attention, not to mention their lifestyles and jobs. With Trump’s triumph, the day of reckoning has arrived. The new GOP is not going to be party of open borders, free trade globalism or reflexive interventionism. The weeping and gnashing of teeth are justified. For these self-righteous folks are all getting eviction notices. They are being dispossessed of their home. Edited July 25, 2016 by slow

theanswer Posted July 25, 2016 Posted July 25, 2016 Nisu vanzni mailovi, vazno je ko je odgovoran za njihovu objavu. Upravo to. Problem je što se po hiljaditi put u ovoj kampanji prosto negira raspoloženje naroda koje nije samo na desnoj strani nego i levoj. Otuda i 13 miliona ljudi koji su glasali za Sandersa. Tramp je dobio 10pts convention bump, nije to baš malo. Skoro 60 posto svih je videlo njegov govor ocenama od 3 do 5. Hilarin broj za honest je 30%, Više od 50% ljudi veruje da se Tramp kandidovao za predsednika jer želi dobro državi umesto personal gain, taj broj za Hilari je 43%

Ravanelli Posted July 25, 2016 Posted July 25, 2016 treba da se doda treća opcija u pollu, da glasamo da li će 3orule dati glas trampu
porucnik vasic Posted July 25, 2016 Posted July 25, 2016 'OK, I am depressed (but not at all surprised) by the fact that the DNC was in the tank for Hillary from the get-go, and clearly positioned itself to sabotage any real effort to cut through the polluting influence of big money and address the real problems this country is facing. At the same time: Holy Crap! PUTIN is working to help Trump get elected. If that's not a sign, I don't know what is.' Ово написа мој другар, професор историје инстински амерички интелектуалац, дете професора са Берклија, дипломац Јејла и докторант са Принстона. После ми кукамо на он што гласају за Вучића.
3opge Posted July 25, 2016 Posted July 25, 2016 (edited) evo i divnog sazetka babinog ucinka jos od vremena kada je habi harao Amerikom: Don Tabor Many people who may vote in the democratic primary election and the general election in 2016 have no real knowledge of Mrs. Clinton or her non accomplishments. As a public service, I thought I would provide some input regarding her triumphs for consideration.When Bill Clinton was president, he allowed Hillary to assume authority over a health care reform. Even after threats and intimidation, she couldn’t even get a vote in a democratic controlled congress. This fiasco cost the American taxpayers about $13 million in cost for studies, promotion, and other efforts.Then President Clinton gave Hillary authority over selecting a female attorney general. Her first two selections were Zoe Baird and Kimba Wood – both were forced to withdraw their names from consideration. Next she chose Janet Reno – husband Bill described her selection as “my worst mistake.” Some may not remember that Reno made the decision to gas David Koresh and the Branch Davidian religious sect in Waco, Texas resulting in dozens of deaths of women and children.Husband Bill allowed Hillary to make recommendations for the head of the Civil Rights Commission. Lani Guanier was her selection. When a little probing led to the discovered of Ms. Guanier’s radical views, her name had to be withdrawn from consideration.Apparently a slow learner, husband Bill allowed Hillary to make some more recommendations. She chose former law partners Web Hubbel for the Justice Department, Vince Foster for the White House staff, and William Kennedy for the Treasury Department. Her selections went well: Hubbel went to prison, Foster (presumably) committed suicide, and Kennedy was forced to resign.Many younger voters will have no knowledge of “Travelgate.” Hillary wanted to award unfettered travel contracts to Clinton friend Harry Thompson – and the White House Travel Office refused to comply. She managed to have them reported to the FBI and fired. This ruined their reputations, cost them their jobs, and caused a thirty-six month investigation. Only one employee, Billy Dale was charged with a crime, and that of the enormous crime of mixing personal and White House funds. A jury acquitted him of any crime in less than two hoursStill not convinced of her ineptness, Hillary was allowed to recommend a close Clinton friend, Craig Livingstone, for the position of Director of White House security. When Livingstone was investigated for the improper access of about 900 FBI files of Clinton enemies (Filegate) and the widespread use of drugs by White House staff, suddenly Hillary and the president denied even knowing Livingstone, and of course, denied knowledge of drug use in the White House. Following this debacle, the FBI closed its White House Liaison Office after more than thirty years of service to seven presidents.Next, when women started coming forward with allegations of sexual harassment and rape by Bill Clinton, Hillary was put in charge of the “bimbo eruption” and scandal defense. Some of her more notable decisions in the debacle were:· She urged her husband not to settle the Paula Jones lawsuit. After the Starr investigation they settled with Ms. Jones.· She refused to release the Whitewater documents, which led to the appointment of Ken Starr as Special Prosecutor. After $80 million dollars of taxpayer money was spent, Starr’s investigation led to Monica Lewinsky, which led to Bill lying about and later admitting his affairs.· Hillary’s devious game plan resulted in Bill losing his license to practice law for lying under oath to a grand jury and then his subsequent impeachment by the House of Representatives.· Hillary avoided indictment for perjury and obstruction of justice during the Starr investigation by repeating, “I do not recall,” “I have no recollection,” and “I don’t know” a total of 56 times while under oath.· After leaving the White House, Hillary was forced to return an estimated $200,000 in White House furniture, china, and artwork that she had stolen.Now we are exposed to: the destruction of possibly incriminating emails while Hillary was Secretary of State and the “pay to play” schemes of the Clinton Foundation – we have no idea what shoe will fall next. But to her loyal fans" – “what difference does it make"Expose this criminal for what she is. ..share a million times for those who are unaware of her corrupt history. Edited July 25, 2016 by 3opge

Prospero Posted July 25, 2016 Posted July 25, 2016 Evo sad CNN komentariše to u prvoj reakciji na Bernijev nastup.
Prospero Posted July 25, 2016 Posted July 25, 2016 Gledajući to javilo mi se da su Bernijevi (potencijalni) glasači poslednji koji će izaći da glasaju za manje zlo.
