Hmm. Well, I personally don't remember a lot of complaints about Obama golfing, but then I tend to tune out such things, unless the people complaining are actually in a position to push policy because of it. I do remember Bush the Younger, infamously using the golf course as a backdrop for one of his attacks on the mess in the Middle East after 9-11, where he said some pointed aggressive words about our chosen opponents there, ending with the words "Now watch me hit this (golf ball) onto the next green." Or something like that anyway. Anyone who pretends that they thought Obama didn't take things seriously enough, must have demanded that Bush be instantly removed from office for THAT little ditty. Or admitted that their righteousness about Obama is all puffery. In a larger historic context, this is an oft repeated story. When a political party is OUT OF POWER, they tend to find all manner of things to say about the opposition, in hopes of getting the electorate to hate them, which they immediately blank their minds about, the moment they win power back again. It's what I think of as "standard level hypocrisy," and it's only really egregious, when it becomes the ONLY reason that I am supposed to support removing the guy from office for. Haha |

Roads shouldn't be private, but state governments shouldn't be allowed to use money specifically designated to cover infrastructure costs for anything else but infrastructure. This is too common of an occurrence.

Do you really think President Obama would expel 35 Russian intelligence operatives if there was any doubt? Both the CIA and the FBI issued detailed reports positively stating that the Russians were behind the email hack at numerous organizations - including getting into a power grid. You alt rightists will grab anything supporting your 'hopes' and it's hilariously sad. There has been numerous reports and studies done to support the fact that voting fraud doesn't exist anywhere near the level you right wing conspiracy freaks have been told by your largest fake news organization, Fox ****ing news. Learn to research properly and try to comprehend the reports issued by the intelligence community. Maybe Obama expelled the Russians because Putin has made him look like the complete and incompetent fool he really is. Ex KGB vs a community organizer.. Haha.. |

Something which most people here are entirely ignoring, in favor of whichever personal agenda of the moment they enjoy feigning intensity about, is that the situation and various interacting nations of the Middle East is extremely complex, and those complexities date back to long before the existence or even the conceptualization of the United States. The story of how and why the Saudis behave as they do, has never been discussed or explained as deeply and thoroughly as it needs to be, for Americans to be able to talk about these particular details in any informed way. People who know nothing of the past of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics and of Putin, can, and have been easily fooled into admiring Putin's actions and speeches, to the point even of praising Putin as doing what Obama should do. That sort of ignorant crap infests this subject area as well. The Saudis have been, and still are, making a variety of strategic mistakes, but the reason why they do whatever they do, is NOT REMOTELY as simple as what those who point fingers at them here understand. What they do to keep themselves in power, and to try to guide their people along in a world that is NOT under their control, is complicated as well. They haven't tolerated terrorist financing amongst their people because they hope to disrupt and destroy the world they make their greatest profits from, and it's more than foolish to assume they have. Something you clearly don't understand is that their religion trumps all. Yes the royal family may want their palaces and their Ferrari sports cars, but it is control of Mecca and Medina that matters more than any. What they do has everything to do with protecting those cities. Why do you think they are enemies of Iran? Because Iran wants those cities. The control of the Islamic world is Mecca and Medina. |

Consider the facts of the matter. When pressed, Mr. Earnest blamed Republicans and the need for more gun control. He then lectured on the importance of the police gaining the community’s trust.
This pretty much says they have no desire to address the problems in Chicago because it would expose the pathetic job done by liberal local governments in finding real solutions to crime in the cities they have run for decades. Hillary's super predators are not a priority because they aren't terrorizing the liberal elites walled off communities.. |

Actually Ms Harmony the progressives of the early 20th century were behind the eugenics movement.
They hated blacks.. they hated slavs.. they hated catholics. They hated anyone that was poor.. You do know that Woodrow Wilson was the one that re-segregated the military right?

Republican Party Isn't Dead

Republican Party Isn't Dead The Republican party isn't dead, contrary to what one may have read in the New York Daily News or the Boston Globe. To know why the Republican Party isn't dead, one needs only to read the original Republican Party Platform of 1856. Historian Richard Cavendish explains why the Republican Party was founded: "The party was born of hostility to slavery. Back in 1820, the US Congress had agreed the Missouri Compromise, under which Missouri entered the Union as a slave state, but slavery was forbidden anywhere else in the Louisiana Purchase north of 36 Degrees 30'. However, in 1854 the principle was threatened by the Kansas-Nebraska Act, under which the white inhabitants of the two territories were to decide by referendum whether slavery would be allowed there or not. There were numerous Americans in the northern states who disapproved of slavery, including many northern Whigs and Democrats as well as the Free Soilers, who had sprung from concern over the possible introduction of slavery in territory acquired from Mexico in the 1840s." As Cavendish states, slavery wasn't the only issue driving the formation of the Republican Party, a seen in this excerpt from the original GOP platform: "Resolved: That the Constitution confers upon Congress sovereign powers over the Territories of the United States for their government; and that in the exercise of this power, it is both the right and the imperative duty of Congress to prohibit in the Territories those twin relics of barbarism --Polygamy, and Slavery." In short, the Republican Party's primary purpose was fulfilled once slavery and polygamy were outlawed. Since then, the GOP has constantly reinvented itself by championing new causes. The ascension of Donald Trump in the party is the result of Trump offering rank-and-file GOP voters a new cause: America First. The GOP didn't die with Trump's rise. Instead, what died was the power that GOP elites had. The latter were given opportunity to fulfill the desires of the GOP rank and file but failed to do so. Thus, the rank and file turned to an outsider for help. * * * * * Quote Source: Cavendish, R. (2004). The Republican Party Founded. History Today. * * * * * Originally posted @ The Moderate Voice reinventions: dixiecrats relying on slavery left democrats and went full out republican dixiecrat states became republican states be careful of immigration be careful of minorities be careful of muslims keep women in their place be cautious of affirmative action protect the country created and founded by and for the brits 'give us your tired, poor , and yearning to be free',,isn't a 'right',,just a slogan And the Northern Republican/anti-slavery states went full libtard. Proud descendants of the eugenics loving progressive/socialists. |

"Confederate soldiers should be honored because they bravely fought to keep black people on American soil enslaved." That above statement, while not openly uttered, summarizes the attitude of a certain segment of American society that is in love with symbols of America's nadir, namely the war to preserve slavery, a.k.a the U.S. Civil War. Granted, that institution of slavery was initiated by the British, and the USA's founding fathers reluctantly put the issue of slavery on the back burner when they declared independence from the British. Still, the evil of slavery wasn't something that could be tolerated in a nation which declared that all men are created equal. Over time, as the northern states gained more control over D.C. politics, Americans opposed to slavery gained opportunity to limit (if not completely eliminate) such evil. The rise of the Republican Party, with Abraham Lincoln as its presidential choice, spelled disaster for white southerners who profited from slavery. If slavery were to continue, then the white southerners would have to do something drastic, and they did. Contrary to what pro-southern revisionists keep claiming, the Confederacy was formed for the purpose of preserving slavery. As historian Gordon Rhea states, "The Confederate States were established explicitly to preserve and expand the institution of slavery. Alexander Stephens, the Confederacy's vice president, said so himself in 1861, in unambiguous terms." After the Civil War ended and slavery was eliminated, Confederates consoled themselves by saying,"We lost, but we should be proud of our heroic efforts to keep slavery alive." They and their descendants then set up monuments honoring the defenders of slavery. In 1895, one such monument was set up in Louisville, Kentucky in a location that is now within the University of Louisville. On 04/29/16, the university's president and the mayor of Louisville announced that the monument would be moved from its current location and that it would be cleaned, repaired and stored until another location for it is selected. Typically, whenever such a symbol of the Confederacy is removed from public property, somebody somewhere claims that U.S. history is being scrubbed. On the contrary, such a removal is a recognition of history. University of Louisville professor Ricky Jones says it best in a column published by Louisville's Courier-Journal newspaper: Let me be clear about what the battle flag, statues and other symbols of the Confederacy are. They are representations of hate, emptied-out ideas of racial superiority, inhumanity and devilishness. The Civil War was not a war of "northern aggression" fought by sympathetic, victimized "Gone with the Wind" characters. It was a war about slavery – plain and simple. It was a conflict the South started to maintain its right to continue playing pharaoh and endlessly force its black brutes to make bricks out of straw. Every battle flag, T-shirt, and monument to these inhumane traitors remind us of that fact.
It is amazing that, in the 21st Century, symbols of the old Confederacy are still being used to extol the southern states, as if the southern states hadn't changed any since the Civil War. Well, the southern states have indeed changed. Gone With The Wind is just a movie, not a documentary about modern southern living. The nadir of America's history is to be remembered and taught about, but it isn't something to be proud of. If modern-day southerners want to display something that represents southern pride, then they should display symbols of NASCAR, which has long been identified with the southern states. After all, Richard Petty is already a southern icon. [NASCAR legend Richard Petty] Side Issue: In a 2011 speech to the Charleston Library Society, historian Gordon Rhea states the following: Unlike present-day South Africa, the South had no truth-and-reconciliation commission. Our ancestors did not have to come to grips with their own history at a time when honesty might have carried the day. Instead, we are left with the post-war fantastical tall-tales of men like Stephens and Davis that race and slavery had nothing to do with the South's drive for independence, tall tales that have become grist for the mill of neo-confederates and their present day partisans. Those tall-tales and after-the-fact justifications, however, can survive only if we ignore what the South's leaders actually said as they urged their countrymen to action. Those words are preserved in repositories such as the Charleston Library Society. They are here for the world to read. So long as libraries across the country preserve these original speeches, pamphlets, and sermons, the message remains loud and clear: You can run from the truth, but you cannot hide from it.
It is no accident that Confederate symbols have been the mainstay of white supremacist organizations, from the Ku Klux Klan to the skinheads. They did not appropriate the Confederate battle flag simply because it was pretty. They picked it because it was the flag of a nation dedicated to their ideals, i.e., "that the negro is not equal to the white man." The Confederate flag, we are told, represents heritage, not hate. But why should we celebrate a heritage grounded in hate, a heritage whose self-avowed reason for existence was the exploitation and debasement of a sizable segment of its population? * * * * * * * Originally posted @ The Moderate Voice First of all I am a Yankee and my ancestors wore blue coats. 7th Pennsylvania Cavalry Army of the Ohio Army of the Cumberland As I know through the oral history given by my GG Grandfather before his death in 1929 and transcribed by my Great Grandfather, the majority of the common rebel soldiers were fighting because they felt obliged to defend their land. They weren't slave owners. They didn't come from plantations. It is very easy to look back at 1861-1865 through the eyes of someone in 2016 and attempt to generalize what was in those boy's and men's heads. However, you can't do it. Most of those men on both sides didn't join the fight for slavery one way or the other. They joined because it was what they did. It was the right thing to do. The Union won and the Confederates lost. There is nothing wrong with celebrating the sacrifices of your ancestors for doing what they, in 1861-1865, thought was the right thing to do. My triple G was attached to Sherman's Army during the Atlanta campaign. If we measured what they did to Atlanta by 2016 standards they would all be considered war criminals. Sherman would have been sent to the Hague and convicted of crimes against humanity. Good thing the winners get to write the history, eh DODO.. |
