'17 Specials & '18 Midterms Thread

Liberals have become consumed with TDS....and, as an article I posted earlier explains in detail...it has affected their ability to think clearly. Now, their rage is resulting in actions that are becoming counter-productive to their own goals. If you think that having Maxine Waters on television as the face of the Democratic Party telling people to get unruly mobs to protest people at restaurants is helpful to Democrats' electoral chances in November then, by all means, go for it.

The Democratic Party has chosen to become the Open Borders Party. The voters will deliver their response to that decision in November.

Personally, I think that you are going to be disappointed....again.

That David French thread is just French finding another way to take shots at Trump while taking shots at liberals. He's trying to be above the fray. People like him bullied Obama for 8 years.

This. It's just another version of the stupid civility argument.

Relevant:

Not to mention the fact that bob, having turned his back on the Democratic Party, now wants to see that party destroyed and its supporters ruined, yet he constantly posts on here about all of the stupid mistakes that the Democrats are doing that will lead to that destruction. So, he's warning against the presumed destruction of something that he also states he wants destroyed. Typical bkf logic there. And, if he's trying to warn people here to change course, it's also absurd, because 1) no one here controls the Democratic Party. If bob wants the Democrats to change course, he needs to contact the DNC, not the posters here, and 2) he seems to be trying, in his own hateful little way, to save the thing that he also says he wants to see ruined and devastated. And that's without noting that his obnoxious, angry, foam-at-the-mouth posting style has driven away everyone that he claims to be trying to educate. Not a good way of warning people, bob. A strange man. Or, just a troll.

1) My posts have not been obnoxious....and certainly not "angry & foam-at-the-mouth". They have been very calm, clear & to the point regarding my message. If you want to see some angry, foam-at-the-mouth posts, read the personal invective in responses to my posts. (Which, you may have noticed, I have simply ignored....as such responses just show a level of immaturity that requires no reply.)

2) I've already said that I am no longer trying to get anyone here to change his mind.....that such a purpose would be futile.

3) All I have tried to do is provide a different perspective to the monolithic one that is restated repeatedly by about 20 other posters in this liberal echo chamber. Do you feel that threatened by having one perspective that differs from your mob of 20?

Thank you Chris Hayes. Reminds me of a recent article about how many people have trouble distinguishing facts from opinions.

LOL. You are truly delusional, bob. Your posts aren't offensive? I've been reading your posts for years, and you're easily one of the most obnoxious and offensive people on these boards. You constantly tell people to fuck off, and you've literally spent years ranting about "worthless fucking Millennials", and on and on. You call everyone else here clueless, and yet you obviously don't even read your own posts. You say you're providing a different perspective, but you also just admitted that you've given up on the people here. Do you not see the contradiction? As for being threatened, what perspective do you offer, bob, beyond your insults and egotistical rants? Your sources are all from extreme right-wing websites, and you post nothing new that everyone here hasn't heard from you for years, in one ideological perspective or another. Your posting style was the same when you were a Liberal/Socialist as it is now. By your own admission you have no interest in having a serious debate with anyone here, and you hold nearly everyone here in contempt. So you're preaching to an empty choir. As I've said, I think you're just a troll who lives a boring retiree life in a podunk NC town, and you come here to stir the pot and amuse yourself. I also think it's clear that you're obsessed with this board and can't stay away for very long, as over the years you've grandly announced you're leaving the board several times, and yet you always come crawling back. If posting here gives you some jollies, then by all means continue. And, I'll continue to think you're a troll who has welched on a bet, and who still refuses to admit who you really are even though it's now painfully obvious. But, you go get 'em bob!

You serious?

You posted this yesterday. Can you please explain how the following comment is very calm and not angry?

And what is really amazing is that now, just two years later, you are doing it again! Hollywood & the Liberal Media....with things like its deceitful & disastrous recent Time magazine cover....are showing that they didn't learn a thing from their last ass-kicking. There isn't going to be any "Blue Wave"....and you are going to be shocked & dismayed on election night, wondering how the hell you managed to fuck up and lose another slam dunk election.

You self-absorbed elitist fuckers simply don't have a clue.

Here is some perspective from one of your fellow liberals. You should take it to heart.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...-Trump-elected-banning-staff-restaurants.html

Well, bob, if you want to keep defending all the things your side is doing, I'll keep defending what mine are doing, which is still far, far less. You're an old fart who should know that turning the other cheek doesn't work in politics. Also, it's hard to take things to heart when your side has none...starting with you and the POTUS.
 
LOL at the stupidity to call people elitist and then cite fucking Piers Morgan.

One thing I didn't mention regarding your earlier response is this: You have equated any post that you do know agree with as being "obnoxious & offensive". That is a problem in this echo chamber. Any poster who offers a post that does not jive with the group-think is labeled "obnoxious & offensive". That is why practically all conservative posters have gradually left the boards.


You are certainly entitled to your opinion. Have I ever said that you are obnoxious or offensive for not agreeing with me? And it is your right to defend anything you wish to defend. All I have said tonight is that...in my opinion...you are defending actions that are counter-productive to your end goals when you support what the outraged far left is doing now. Here is another opinion on this subject:


https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/poli...confront-democrats/ar-AAza5C7?ocid=spartanntp

The attempts at shaming have delighted many on the left, particularly following Mr. Trump’s policy of separating migrant children from their parents, and many progressives feel that the president’s incendiary messaging and actions must be met with something far stronger than another round of news releases from politicians. But the social media-fueled confrontations have opened a rift in the party over whether stoking anti-Trump outrage is helping or undermining its prospects in the midterm elections. Many younger Democrats believe that conventional politics are insufficient to the threat posed by a would-be authoritarian — and that their millennial and nonwhite base must be assured that the party is doing all it can to halt Mr. Trump. Older and more establishment-aligned party officials fear the attempts at public humiliation are a political gift to Republicans eager to portray the opposition as inflaming rather than cooling passions in the nation’s capital.

“Trump’s daily lack of civility has provoked responses that are predictable but unacceptable,” Representative Nancy Pelosi of California, the House Democratic leader, said Monday, rebuking Ms. Waters, a veteran flamethrower who is enjoying something of a renaissance in the Trump era. This sort of talk infuriates the new guard of liberal leaders, who warn that Washington Democrats risk dampening enthusiasm among anti-Trump activists if they continue denouncing direct action.

Other prominent Democrats, however, are alarmed at those in their ranks who believe these public clashes should be encouraged. The party has found its greatest electoral success by casting itself as the antidote to Republican excess and divisiveness, these Democrats say, not by emulating the most heated talk and behavior on the right. When Republicans have prospered, they warn, it has often been when they can ride a public backlash against Democrats.

“It’s totally counterproductive,” said David Axelrod, the former chief strategist for President Barack Obama. “You’re making Sarah Huckabee Sanders a sympathetic figure.” Mr. Axelrod, who received an avalanche of criticism online over the weekend after tweeting about his unease with how Ms. Sanders was treated, bristled at the criticism and noted his success in winning a pair of presidential elections. “Organize, run for office, donate and most of all vote,” he said. “That’s how you change policy in a democracy.”


The over-the-top rage from the Far Left is playing right into Trump's hands.

It's just like how he posted an article bashing elitists written by a British Silicon Valley bro.
 
Well, when you lose another election that was all laid out for you to win, you will only have yourselves to blame....again.
 
Yep, blacks should vote for Republicans. The GOP only stands for voter suppression, killing Pell Grants, ending Affirmative Action, supported ending the VRA and much more. GOP has proposed cutting almost all of the safety net.

This POTUS has white supremacists working in the WH had multiple in the West Wing during his term. This POTUS said "there were many fine people" screaming "white power". This POTUS said the Central Park Five should have been executed. When they were totally exonerated, he said they should be kept in jail forever anyway.

The former darling of the GOP said this: "On NBC’s “Meet the Press” recently, Powell added, “I’m not calling the party racist . . . there’s some in the party who practice a level of intolerance that is not good for the party and is not consistent with American values.”

I wouldn't say that most republicans I interact with are racists. However, pretty much all the people that I interact with that I would consider racist, or those that are negatively biased based on race, are republican. It's a pretty consistent observation

You suffer from poor reading comprehension, bob. I have never equated all "posts I disagree with" as obnoxious, only your posts which are blatant personal insults and attacks. You seem to have conveniently ignored (another of your more endearing traits) all of the posters who have given you specific examples of just how nasty, personal, and yes, obnoxious you can be. You're the definition of obnoxious, bob, and have been for a long, long time. And it has nothing to do with your positions, but with your posting style and your online persona. As for whether I am obnoxious or offensive in my posting style, I'll leave that for others to decide.

I fully understand what you're saying about liberals attacking Republicans, bob, it's really not that hard to understand. I simply disagree. What you refuse to acknowledge is that this escalation started with the POTUS and Republicans. If you disagree, please provide some examples of Obama tweeting insults and threats as Trump has done, or being as petty and vindictive as Trump has done, or pursuing policies that are as offensive and discriminatory to conservatives as what Trump has done to liberals. He has literally only governed to his base - that is, people like you, and as we all saw at his rally in SC tonight, he does his best to bring out the very worst in them. What your side wants is to be able say anything they want about liberals, do anything they want to them, while liberals are never able to respond. That's not the way human nature works, bob, as an old fart like you should know. We'll see about the November elections, but even if the Democrats lose again, I'd rather belong with them than with people like you, who stand with Trump. In the light of history I have no doubt he's going to be described as one of the very worst and most malicious presidents ever. If winning a few election cycles makes you feel better about yourself, then by all means crow about it and trash talk here, as you always do anyway, for any reason. Don't expect anyone else to listen, though, or care. Again, you're a troll who's not here to be serious. You're not here to bring a different perspective, you're just here to piss people off and sit back and laugh at the chaos you've caused. In that sense, bob, Trump is perfect for you, and I can easily see why you adore him so. You must be so proud to have rejected your entire life's political beliefs just so you could join his side. Winning!
 
Good thread



This rings true.
 
New Bob is boring. I mean, shit, if you're gonna totally incinerate the last vestiges of respect anyone here might of had for you, at least come back in swinging with something novel or interesting. It's kinda sad, bro.
