Good riddance to George Will
By James Lewis

I like and respect George Will, and over the years I've been one of his fans. With the rise of Donald Trump, Will has decided to resign from the GOP, along with Mitt Romney and the other folks we might call "decorative conservatives" -- the people who look good on the outside, but who have none of the fire in the belly that marked Teddy Roosevelt or Lincoln -- not to mention the Founders, who were pretty robust and argumentative.

I believe Mr. Will has a genuine distaste for what may become Trump Conservatism. Trump represents a kind of happywarrior style of American politician, similar to Harry Truman and Rough Rider Teddy Roosevelt. It's obviously too low-class for Will, Romney and Jeb Bush, who are all too delicate for the political blood sport that the Left has imposed on our politics. Nothing is too low for the Left. Literally nothing.

The national GOP has been in decline for years, running decrepit candidates like Bob Dole, John McCain, and Mitt Romney -- who actually did flinch in the last debate with Obama, as Trump points out. Candidates like Dole and McCain were picked for their seniority, which is what made them weak and doddering candidates.

On the other side, the hard Left is back in charge of the Democrats, and they are k**lers. Their purpose is to destroy their opponents. In response, the GOP has run certain losers.

But then we see the k**ler thugs of the Washington Post and New York Times hiring a decorative conservative like George Will for "balance." Balance, my foot. George Will is protective coloration for the WaPo's inner mafia. The WaPo doesn't play by any rules except its own. You may not see the glint of the daggers they all carry into the fight, but come e******n time, every honest conservative gets the shaft.

This is going to be a nasty, vicious e******n, and winners have to give as good as they get. I'm sorry. Reality.

The WaPo has carried off the complete myth of Watergate to destroy a Republican President who was no worse than LBJ or Robert Kennedy, or Carter, Clinton and Obama. American journalism is now based on a deliberate lie, the false mythology of Watergate -- actually a power struggle between the Permanent Government in DC and an elected President, Richard Nixon. Watergate's Deep Throat (Mark Felt, the Assistant Director of the FBI) plotted with the Washington Post to destroy Richard Nixon. That's all there was to it. Everything else is lies.

Nixon was destroyed because he was an anti-C*******t, and today, the Democrats have racialized C*******m just like Dixiecrat Huey Long did long ago. They have placed one of their own in the White House, and the policy results are disastrous. People are dying in Syria and Libya because Barack Obama is still steeped in the phony socialism of Jomo Kenyatta of Kenya. But Kenyatta was too practical to be a Marxist in an underdeveloped country like Kenya. Obama Sr., Barack's father he never knew, preached radicalism and world revolution, so Kenyatta threw him out. Barack Obama is therefore playing out a childhood drama in his mind, a drama that lost any practical relevance half a century ago.

It's strange how the Left always repeats the past, time after time after time, all in the cause of "Progressivism."

Now George Will knows all that. If he is as smart as he seems, he understands perfectly well that Obama is a total fraud who has been immensely harmful to the United States and the world. George Will understands the merry ride of Bonny and Clyde Clinton, who introduced lethal t***snational corruption into the capital, which is now riven with Muslim Brotherhood money and a morally c*********d establishment. George Will knows all that, but when a clean broom like Trump comes along Mr. Will can't tolerate it.

It's not Trump's substance that bothers Mr. Will. It's his lowbrow style. (But Trump's everyday style is his ace in the hole -- it shocks the establishments, and draws the media to Donald Trump like flies to horse droppings. The media can't stay away. He holds 'em by the nose and kicks 'em in the rear.)

Anglo-American conservatism has never been a single thing. That was the whole point about conservatism, beginning with the British Glorious Revolution of 1699, which helped to define English rights and liberties against a power-grabbing royal house.

This is the drama we just saw play out again in Europe when the Brits revolted against the absurd new Juncker Class, trying to exert Franco-German power over Britain. That Sovietized political machine is not going to give up its drive to dictate the size of cherry tomatoes in Scotland: That is its only mission in life. Without those forty thousand regulations from Brussels, the Euro Soviets would have no function at all.

They are parasites. They do not produce anything useful, anymore than the Soviet Apparat did before the crumbling of the State. Vladimir Putin just pointed out the eerie similarities between the end of Soviet dominance and the end of the EU. That similarity is not an accident. It represents the eternal fight between self-serving power freaks and ordinary people trying to live their lives.

Ordinary Europe has wandered into the ancient trap of deceptive political con artists talking people into giving up their rights and powers. Obama has tried to do the same thing to us.

But Mr. Will and his fellow pundits can't see the obvious.

The Clinton-Obama years have turned DC politics into piracy, but for the first time in years there is a convincing alternative. Nobody knows whether Trump will justify those glowing embers of hope, or whether he will turn out to be a big disappointed. Nobody knows. But Trump looks like the real thing.

Well, Will, Romney and Paul Ryan can't stand it. Trump drives them nuts, and you can see it on their faces. Their hollowness has been exposed, which is already a win as far as I'm concerned. The convenient back-scratching game between the GOP-e and Marxist-e has been exposed, and no sane American will ever believe them again. They are the enemy.

Mr. Will's outraged decision to walk out helps to clarify the real drama going in DC. Trump has been winning by telling t***hs that have been lied about for far too long. Trump talks the t***h about Jihad while Hillary just sells out her country. Trump is already undermining the Left's narrative, and the chattering classes are only chattering.

Obama's sly effort to sexualize the military -- and school children's bathrooms -- are not going to survive if Trump takes over. Obama's betrayal of our moral values to ISIS and Saudi Arabia will not last, if Trump takes over. There is a good chance for our judiciary to correct its shameful abandonment of principle if Trump wins. Apparently Mr. Will cannot see that.

Trump isn't perfect, and Americans will keep a wary eye on anybody in power. But it's hard to see any worse than Carter-Clinton-Obama. Somehow the GOP establishment has become inured to the stench of corruption and self-dealing that we are seeing in the capital today. I believe it is much worse than we can even imagine.

We need a good purge, and I'm not choosy about the label on the box.

Let the exodus begin.

This post is from somebody that actually believes that man walked with dinosaurs. Rac doesnt allow people who he disagrees with to post responses on his posts so he is very isolated and extremely deluded. Of course all of the right wing nut cases will post their approval of wh**ever rac says. This site attracts ultra conservative right wing vociferous nut cases for some reason, they all are enamored of wh**ever rac has to say right or wrong and rac is mostly wrong. Of course rac will peruse my post but he will hide in the bushes as he always does with his head securely up his rectum.

For all you libs out there believing the drivel of obummer, crooked Clinton and the i***ts on MSNBC and the usual suspects that we need to ban the AR-15 as the weapon of war used in the Orlando shooting are believing blindly a bunch of BS.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/checkpoint/wp/2016/06/14/the-gun-the-orlando-shooter-used-was-not-an-ar-15-that-doesnt-change-much/

Of course being foolish and an i***t does not change the agenda of anti gun propaganda.
PS at gun shows you get a background check already.

The NRA is right, Libs cannot tell the difference between an AR-15 and a shot gun or any other firearm for that matter.
Quiz which is the AR-15? Real easy for a true American to tell. For libs it is likely impossible.

In one of the gun nut threads, one of the stupidest morons I have ever encountered in my life proposed that, due to the fact that he has fired thousands of rounds of his military rifle and never shot a single person, that therefore proves that the intended purpose of that firearm could not possibly be to k**l. Now, I can understand that many of the right wing nuts who have very low IQ would accept such i***tic logic. But one person who takes the side of this r****ded logic and then attacks me for being the illogical one, is a person who has shown himself capable of being reasonable and logical on other issues.

When I pointed out that, no, you would have to be pretty stupid to take your gun and point it away from someone and fire it and then claim, "see, it failed to perform it's intended purpose of k*****g", MWalsh jumped all over me and asserted that I am being unreasonable, misrepresenting, twisting, and that I am the illogical i***t.


So, I'm curious what other hoggers think about why MWalsh would be taking the side of such utter stupidity. Could it be:

1) MWalsh has drunk the gun nut Kool-Aide, which is apparently so strong that it can turn normally rational objective intelligent individuals into blathering gun nut morons
2) MWalsh has Keenan Derangement Syndrom, which has him taking many illogical positions as of late to attack me even when he has to make a fool of himself to do it
3) Maybe I was wrong about how rational, objective, and intelligent MWalsh really is

What do others think?

Because terminology, vocabulary, utterances, or definitions, when agreed upon, establishes the ability to communicate. If people assign an incorrect definition to a word it renders the communication less understandable to all involved in receiving the message. Perhaps the assigned definition is done so out of ignorance. Perhaps the assigned definition is done to persuade. Either way, it's presenting an incorrect message. In the particular case I presented, the author is either ignorant of the definition, or wants to persuade the less knowledgeable that a certain type of weapon is evil. It is based on appearance and not on function.

I certainly won't argue with anyone as to which is more deadly. However, the type of stock attached to a rifle does not make it any less or more deadly. However, the people wanting to ban assault weapons seem only to focus on appearance. The definition of an assault weapon is one that fires automatically. That is, as long as the trigger is held rounds will be fired, a machine gun in common parlance. The AR-15, unless illegally modified, is not an automatic weapon. It, like the pistol, is semi-automatic, deadly just the same. So, by similarity, we could refer to the pistol as an assault weapon. Based on all accounts, Gen. Cota led an assault on D-Day armed with only a .45 cal pistol. So, I would guess a pistol is an assault weapon.

Like the pistol referred to in the news story, the rifle used will only fire one round per trigger pull, making it a semi-automatic weapon. This slight difference doesn't make one less or more dangerous, but it does paint a more sinister picture, for a purpose. So, I agree with you on the results not making a difference, but let's be accurate in our descriptions.

Oh, and as for your 200,000 victims, That is outdone by medical errors at 251,000, but whose counting?
