Demagogue claims ignorance of the Klan while Jeff Sessions becomes latest cheerleader for the Trump Chump Parade, meanwhile we have Kurt Schlichter's permission not to vote for the shape shifter.

"Trump has the potential to be a disaster of epic proportions."" Mighty white of you Kurt, if not exactly principled.

Thank you, thank you, all you 'principled' GOP voters-of-the-past who have arranged to give us all such a choice: wormy flour, rancid butter, and rat droppings. Yumm!

So, what's the game plan now, ladies?; February 29, 2016 at 7:09 AM
TheBohunk said...: Much different from Schlicter's previous writings concerning Trump. He is now finding excuses to support him, or not support him. I suppose in five months we will be told that those of us that want no part of a Trump presidency are the problem.

Very disappointed in Schlicter.; February 29, 2016 at 10:28 AM

At least he is telling us who he will rule like by now openly quoting Benito, don't ya know!; February 29, 2016 at 11:51 AM

He can't be stopped. Let's just hope he is a better President than Hillary or Bernie. Your continued belief that Hillary will be indicted is simply wishful thinking. We are far too gone for anything like that. Ford might have pardoned Nixon but they lost a generation of people who lost trust in the Feds after that single act. look at the incredible scandals in the last 7 years. We became a banana republic around late 2009.
You may have to leave us soon but there will be blood.; February 29, 2016 at 1:19 PM
Bad Cyborg said...: Rexxhead, now you know why I plan to sit out the election come next November. Plan to be above 7,000 ft in the Gila National Forest in a tent with my little dog hermitting. I doubt there will be many others out. Gets kinda cold that high that late in the year. I want to be away from civilization. I definitely do not want to be anywhere where I can watch the election. Figure to come down Thursday or Friday, stage through my son's place and come home on Saturday. I will have already instructed my son not to tell me anything about the election and I plan to drive home Saturday with the car radio off.

Sometimes I feel like a man standing high on a bluff watching two trains, both running flat out and on the same track, approaching each other around a blind curve. I am powerless to do anything to avert the coming disaster. And my family is on one of the trains!; February 29, 2016 at 6:00 PM
Chiu ChunLing said...: "And besides, if he’s nominated, I’ll be too busy stockpiling food and fortifying my rural apocalypse compound to try to convince you otherwise."

Why is anyone still letting politics distract them from preparing for the inevitable?; February 29, 2016 at 6:14 PM
ELLO said...: We're on the eve of revolution, don't you see it?
Trump the "demagogue" is irrelevant. People aren't pro Trump as much as they're anti Establishment. The jigs up.; March 1, 2016 at 5:49 AM

Anonymous said...: Those who say they will stay home, or even vote for Hillary, are admitting that they are perfectly fine with the status quo, the de facto one party system, the constant capitulation of the republicrats to whatever facists like Obama and Hillary want, and living under a totalitarian dictatorship. They are saying they prefer all of the above versus dethroning the republicrat establishment.

So if Trump proves to be the con man who goes back on his campaign rheotoric, I guess that would make him just like Rubio and all the rest of the RINO cucks. Or let's that he proves to be not only a Mussolini, but one who strives to be even worse than Hillary. (First, I ask all of those who think Trump is so evil to explain what they think he will, and be specific.)

Regardless, here is why it would be good for the republican party if Trump wins and tried to do all the evil things you fear: because it will cause the republican party to learn how to oppose once again. That's right, if Hillary wins, the republicans will continue to roll over on everything, just like they have been doing under Obama. But if Trump tries to do anything bad, all of a sudden the repubs will learn how to stand up and fight once again. They'll reject bad SCOTUS appointees. Heck, they'd even go for impeachment if called for. They might even start to have some sound principles. And this is a bad thing?; March 1, 2016 at 2:54 PM

"Progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress."

I believe that liberty is the only genuinely valuable thing that men have invented, at least in the field of government, in a thousand years. I believe that it is better to be free than to be not free, even when the former is dangerous and the latter safe. I believe that the finest qualities of man can flourish only in free air – that progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress, and of no permanent value. I believe that any man who takes the liberty of another into his keeping is bound to become a tyrant, and that any man who yields up his liberty, in however slight the measure, is bound to become a slave. -- H.L. Mencken

"The Fate of Unborn Millions. . ."

"The time is now near at hand which must probably determine, whether Americans are to be, Freemen, or Slaves; whether they are to have any property they can call their own; whether their Houses, and Farms, are to be pillaged and destroyed, and they consigned to a State of Wretchedness from which no human efforts will probably deliver them. The fate of unborn Millions will now depend, under God, on the Courage and Conduct of this army-Our cruel and unrelenting Enemy leaves us no choice but a brave resistance, or the most abject submission; that is all we can expect-We have therefore to resolve to conquer or die." -- George Washington to his troops before the Battle of Long Island.

"We will not go gently . . ."

This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can't be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won't be done. The Founders' Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.

But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.

And when we are gone, the scattered, free survivors hiding in the ruins of our once-great republic will sing of our deeds in forbidden songs, tending the flickering flame of individual liberty until it bursts forth again, as it must, generations later. We will live forever, like the Spartans at Thermopylae, in sacred memory.

"A common language of resistance . . ."

"Colonial rebellions throughout the modern world have been acts of shared political imagination. Unless unhappy people develop the capacity to trust other unhappy people, protest remains a local affair easily silenced by traditional authority. Usually, however, a moment arrives when large numbers of men and women realize for the first time that they enjoy the support of strangers, ordinary people much like themselves who happen to live in distant places and whom under normal circumstances they would never meet. It is an intoxicating discovery. A common language of resistance suddenly opens to those who are most vulnerable to painful retribution the possibility of creating a new community. As the conviction of solidarity grows, parochial issues and aspirations merge imperceptibly with a compelling national agenda which only a short time before may have been the dream of only a few. For many Americans colonists this moment occurred late in the spring of 1774." -- T.H. Breen, The Marketplace of Revolution: How Consumer Politics Shaped American Independence, Oxford University Press, 2004, p.1.
