Winning the battles, losing the wars -- Part 3

  Just saw something that reminds me of the same idea.  Conservatives think they can persuade with words, with ideas.  You can argue with the best of them, and not convince these people of anything.

  Boy, don't I know it.

  The thing I saw is that somehow the failure of AOC to answer basic questions heartens so-called conservatives.  Why?  Didn't Kamala Harris come close in the most recent election?  Did it matter that she was dumber than a bag of rocks?

  It only matters if you are conservative and you're supposedly dumb.  Take Dan Quayle.   The left fretted and fretted over how dumb he supposedly was.  Yet look who they idolize now.  Nobody on the opposition side idolized Quayle the way that the pinkos idolize AOC.

  So what does that tell you?  About the left, it tells me that it is never about what its being said it is about.  It's not about Quayle being dumb, or Palin being dumb, because they'll vote for their own dummies.  They'll vote for a nearly comatose Biden, for cripes sake.  They don't care.  But they'll say they care if that's what it takes to fool somebody.

  To the left, a well-reasoned argument is not their thing.  It's all about how well they can slip the next one by you.  Slick Willy was a master at it.  And they loved him for it.

  So the Rush Limbaugh types say that they can win an argument with the left with half their brain tied behind their backs, but they still lose elections.  And Ronald Reagan can defeat the Evil Empire, but now the commies rule New York City.

  Just saying that something's missing.  And conservatives are kidding themselves.

But as Paul Linde, the comedian once said to the heckler who kept saying "I don't get it": "Now you are going to get it, honey."    If they get back into power, they are never going to go away.  The only way to get rid of them then will be bloodshed.

  All the argumentation in the world won't help you then.  You are the lambs arguing with the wolves.  The wolf will "win" that "argument" every single time.

Star Wars Episode IV: "I find your lack of faith disturbing"

Another one of these in which people are being talked down to by the "elites". How so?

I've got a theory. Once these guys like George Lucas, gets rich off their work; they start telling us all what and how we should think.

While the word might sound pretty good at first, years later, like now vs then; one might see where the problem comes in. People don't want to think for themselves. That's the problem. So they let George Lucas do their thinking for them.

This may take a bit more discussion in order to get the point across in our time, which is right now.

Just a few years ago, these guys were the vanguard against the tyranny coming from the left. I put their link up on this blog, as an alternative to what was happening in the Legacy Media and in DC. Those guys in the Legacy Media and DC were attempting to force us into their molds that they had for us all.

Hence the COVID madness and the DEATH SHOT.  

But what seemed the vanguard is now turned on us. These links are suspiciously turning on the thing that ousted the pinko libs from power, and now they're assisting the "force" that we fought against and supposedly won.  They've gone to the "dark side"?  Maybe, if you want to put it that way.

So I'm getting suspicious of that. So Trump has lost the plot, has he? Who paid you off to tell us THAT? That is how I am thinking now. They've got some $$$ in their pockets, and now they've become what we were fighting against.  It's all about the Benjamins.

I'm referring to the alt website that I linked to since the "steal" in 2020. Or it was about that time. Now that the steal really was the steal, and the fake narrative about the "insurrection" is being uncovered; these people are saying that Trump has lost the plot. I am referring to Rasmussen here. I smell a rat.

Well, I've been smelling a rat for the longest time.  And bitching about it here on this blog, for all the good that that does.

Mention it is about all I can do at the moment. Maybe it is all I can do for all time. I can try to get this into people's heads, but if they want to remain stupid, and easily manipulated, then what really can I do about it? I can do what I can about myself. In the end, that is all anybody can do. Don't check your brain in at the door.

Think for yourselves is all I am saying.

Update a bit later on this same day:

It struck me that ANTIFA is the modern equivalent of the KKK. Put that in yo crackpipe and smoke commie pinkos!

Can anybody guess why I put this one up?

Well, I'll answer it myself below.





The "lack of faith" is a bit of a conflict between technology and personal capabilities.  That's what my take is.  Lord Vader has powers that this other fellow doesn't quite understand nor believe in.  It turns out that Vader was right.  The Death Star was destroyed.

What does that have to do in the real world?  People these days are way too impressed with "technological marvels" and not impressed enough with the things that matter more.  Our culture may produce some technologically impressive things, but the inner core of it is crumbling before our very eyes.

Too bad there isn't a Lord Vader to set the foolish ones straight.

Dan Bongino is back

Just watched a bit of his show. Yesterday, the same. Not watching all of it, because it is so friggin' long. Maybe my attention span is getting rather short.

Anyway, from what I watched, his show is as good as ever.

Now, the main thing is that he is spending some time on his government experience recently as FBI second in charge. It is not in your face kind of defense, but what they actually achieved.

Crime is down a lot for a reason. Please note that the political left needs criminality so that they can acheive their objectives.

When crime is down to levels not seen since the beginning of the 20th century, that a whole lot of good has been accomplished. But you'll never know it because of the leftists shitshows.

Too bad that too many of us in the opposition to the left, refuse to focus on what has been accomplished this past year.

We've got to do better.

BTW, I voted against Cornyn. Happy days.

The video below is 1 day old, and his first program is not embedded here. It's two hours long. Nobody will watch that. Shoot, I didn't. Once he gets settled back in, maybe his videos will be reasonable in length. Even an hour is long. I watched some of the program today while it was still live. Just not enough time for this.

That phrase comes up a lot on this blog!

It could possibly be saying a bit more about me than the conditions.

I've also said "think for yourselves". Conservatives like to say "rugged individualism", while at the same time, not exhibiting much of that quality themselves.

Otherwise, why all the dependency upon someone else to do your thinking for you?

Some 'rugged indvidualism' there, I tell ya. / sarc

So why does someone come here and click on it???

I'm always smalling a rat!!!

But all joking aside, there really are rats out there. The question then becomes, what to do about these rats?

People will all too often curse the darkness, and not even switch on a light. Sad, but true.

A lot of people out there in the Establishment want immigration reform.  Was this move, with respect to Syria, a diversion from that issue so that they can sneak this bill through?

If, why is the tea party still allied with the GOP?

A thought about judicial appointments

2/18/26:

Interesting to go back in time and look at what I was thinking back then. My views have changed a bit. Cruz was more conservative than Trump, it says here.  Even Limbaugh was saying stuff like that.

Events have shown that Trump has governed more conservatively than Reagan did.  But Reagan is still considered the great conservative hero.  Well, yeah; he was.  But that was then.  This is today.

I can only note that very little has changed in terms of ACTIVITY on the grass roots level.  Trump is a billionaire.  Must these kinds of people the only people that we can choose from to lead us?

Maybe so.  Anybody who hasn't achieved as much as Trump did ( how many become billionaires?), will end up being controlled by the movers and shakers all around.  Trump is no different than what we would get anyway.  Money controls too many things.

The only thing that the public has is mass, but that could have its advantages too.  This is where the GOP is stumbling badly, and it's going to cost us yet again.  That's because we never seem to learn.

Take a look at what happens.  The GOP put forth McCain and Romney to run against the commie pinko 0bama.  How in the hell does something like that happen?  Neither of these two had the base with them, but had to be accepted because there was nobody else.

Therein lies a problem.  As with all problems, what do you do about it?  Right now, all we seem to get is a lot of bitching, and not much else.

So Trump doesn't get as much done as we would like?  If that's a problem, then what besides to bitch about it, are you willing to actually DO?  The result in Texas recently is not to vote, and the pinkos got a reliably conservative Congressional seat.  There's a problem there, and what has been done about it? Well, I've bitched about it...

Well, at least I'm going to vote.  That ain't much, but it is SOMETHING.  Come to think of it, I have indeed done more than average.  I tried doing things at a grass roots level.  I talked about with people I know, but the reaction was underwhelming.  Just like this blog.  You know, one person can make some differences perhaps.  But one person is just one person.  Know what I mean, Vern?

3/11/16:

The argument goes like this:  Since Trump isn't a real conservative, his judicial appointments will disappoint you if you are a conservative and vote for him.

To answer that one, look at Reagan's appointments.  He had three, I believe, and only one of them was a staunch conservative.  Sure, he got forced into Anthony Kennedy, but he also selected Sandra Day O'Connor.  Not exactly a staunch conservative.  He had no excuses with that one, either.  The GOP controlled the Senate then, so nothing was in the way, unless he let it be.

Supposedly, Cruz will do better than Trump.  But if he doesn't get a friendly Senate, he will get his candidates Borked, too.

Disinformation Board Member Jennifer Daskal Appointed as FISA Court Advisor

  Yeah. We all know what the problems are, but what do you do about it?

  Comment: There are some comments from the readers over at CTH on the subject that are on the right track.  A lot of what those on the so-called right do is just COMPLAIN, as opposed to ORGANIZING themselves into a meaningful force to oppose these commie pinkos.

  People are waking up, but without ACTION, there is not much of a chance of anything DURABLE coming out of this golden opportunity.

  I've been bitching about it for YEARS.  Yes, it isn't nearly enough, but I've been practically ALONE.  Nobody wants to do jack squat, but complain, and nothing GETS DONE.

  Here in Texas we have a primary going on ALREADY, and the GOP people aren't prepared.  NEITHER AM I.  We are constantly paying to much attention to the SHITSHOWS, and not doing things to help ourselves.  Consequently, it is likely that little will be accomplished.  But instead of complaining, for GOD sakes, DO SOMETHING YOURSELVES.

  People don't vote in these elections, and that's where it all starts.  They stayed home in a recent election, and a GOP district in Congress got taken over by a commie pinko lib. Enuff said! Get off your asses!

  Too many people are pointing their fingers at others, but what exactly are YOU doing?!?

Proof that the commies care only about themselves.

 0bama and Clinton are repositioning on immigration...

Wasting time that we don't have to waste. Pointing fingers in the wrong direction. "Straining at gnats and swallowing camels." A huge price will be paid for this, sadly...
