Neera Tanden is president of the Center for American Progress, arguably the most influential liberal think tank in the country. She has also worked extensively with Hillary Clinton, serving as policy director both in Clinton’s Senate office and her presidential campaign.
Yesterday, she tweeted this howler:
Welllllll … she said he was unqualified to be VICE president.
She put out this very famous campaign ad that not-too-subtly slammed Obama’s lack of experience.
Hillary Clinton Ad – 3 AM White House Ringing Phone [:30]
And she got down and dirty here as well.
Color me all unsurprised that Hilliar Clinton’s pimps are also liars. You lie down with dogs …
There’s a talk radio show overnight out of Dallas called Redeye Radio.I listen to it when I’m delivering papers.invariably,Trump supporters call every night and it seems they all sound the same.
Trump wants to build a wall
Trump will negotiate to bring American jobs home
Trump admitted he would threaten tariffs but would never implement them,showing china he’s only bluffing
at least Trump is doing something,anything
It just seems like we heard this from one H. Ross Perot in 1992.He seemed to articulate the concerns of conservatives without ever offering any solutions,just like The Donald.
The Trumpsters seem as devoted to his personality as the progs were who exalted Emperor Obama,without any reasoned thought.
A former Trump spokesman claimed that Trump only decided to run for president on a lark.He never expected it to go this far.Evidently,neither did the GOP elites.Now he’s stuck and just winging it to sate his own overblown ego.One example was the way he stepped on his own weiner when discussing abortion,something sacrosanct to liberals.
Trump: If abortion is banned there has to be “some form of punishment” for women
Trump did an interview with Chris Matthews today where the topic of banning abortion came up. Trump was pressed on whether a woman who has an illegal abortion should be punished:
At a taping of an MSNBC town hall to be aired later, host Chris Matthews pressed Trump on his anti-abortion position, repeatedly asking him, “Should abortion be punished? This is not something you can dodge.”
“Look, people in certain parts of the Republican Party, conservative Republicans, would say, ‘Yes, it should,’” Trump answered.
“How about you?” Matthews asked.
“I would say it’s a very serious problem and it’s a problem we have to decide on. Are you going to send them to jail?” Trump said.
“I’m asking you,” Matthews said.
“I am pro-life,” Trump said. Asked how a ban would actually work, Trump said, “Well, you go back to a position like they had where they would perhaps go to illegal places but we have to ban it,” Trump said.
Matthews then pressed Trump on whether he believes there should be punishment for abortion if it were illegal.
“There has to be some form of punishment,” Trump said. “For the woman?” Matthews asked. “Yeah,” Trump said, nodding.
Trump said the punishment would “have to be determined.”
Within hours he was forced to walk back his comments and change his stance to doctors who provide abortions should be punished.
Donald Trump: Doctors Performing Illegal Abortions Should be ‘Held Legally Responsible, Not the Woman’
GOP frontrunner Donald Trump issued a press release regarding abortion on Wednesday afternoon.
Trump stated in a campaign press release:
If Congress were to pass legislation making abortion illegal and the federal courts upheld this legislation, or any state were permitted to ban abortion under state and federal law, the doctor or any other person performing this illegal act upon a woman would be held legally responsible, not the woman,” Trump stated in a campaign press release. “The woman is a victim in this case as is the life in her womb. My position has not changed — like Ronald Reagan, I am pro-life with exceptions.
I DON’T RECALL REAGAN EVER EQUIVOCATING HIS STANCE ON ABORTION
This election cycle has become the perfect storm of a showman tapping into the anger and frustration of the half of a country who has been screwed over by democrats and sold out by their own elected officials.
Hillary Clinton became the 2016 nominee the day the 2008 position was taken from her in favor of the chocolate flavor of the day.Obama made her SOS so she could fatten their coffers with thinly-veiled “donations” from countries having business before her at State and half-million dollar speaking fees former president Bent Penis,a convicted liar.
I had rather hoped we could run a true conservative at least one time before the liberals become a permanent majority.With the constant infighting,name-calling,muckraking and obsession with fracturing the party it seems the hope has been for naught.
I THINK A LIGHT POST FOR TOMORROW WILL BE IN ORDER
Politics has often been called ‘bloodsport’ for a reason. Presumably it started long ago when physical fights would break out on the floor of the House or Senate. Then it was the ‘whatever it takes to win’ mentality, but nobody got killed. It has devolved in recent decades into something much more serious. When I got to access the net after updating my new Windows 7 platform I was repulsed at what I saw. Trump rallies in St. Louis and Chicago were infested with a host of vermin from Sanders’ Nazi brownshirts to Soros’ paid anarchists, illegal groups fronted by Luis ‘the attack chihuahua’ Gutierrez, Black Lives Matter thugs, and even Barry’s homeboy Bill Ayers was there to represent the geriatric domestic terrorist lobby. Trump signs were torn up, people who only wanted to hear The Donald were spit on, assaulted, and there was even a story on Gateway about homeys screaming at women with Trump signs to ‘rape them racist biotches.’ Trump was forced to cancel the rally for fear of a lot of innocent people getting hurt.
This is one reason for Trump’s popularity. People are tired of the ‘freedom of speech for me, but not for thee’ bullying fomented by the media feeding into the hysteria. Were it not for the complete duplicity of the liberal media the democrats would be irrelevant. What is most depressing is that the left got away with blaming the despicable behavior of their pack of wild dogs on Trump. Even Rubio and Cruz joined in the finger pointing. I still think Trump is a setup and have supported Cruz, but this is just inexcusable to me. He should be better than that.
It is said that the ill-educated are more easily commanded. It is plain to anybody with a brain that the democrat base is largely ignorant and lazy. They are content to live on taxpayer handouts, copping up the free stuff and making money the easy way… committing crimes. It is necessary for the democrat powers to keep the race hatred ginned up, or these sloths would sit on their asses come election day. It is also why I’m convinced that Killary will win in November. They have vote fraud down to a science. There is a link I saw today about a county in Ohio with 913,00 registered voters in 2012. All 913,00 votes were registered. Romney got zero votes and there were no write-ins. It is mathematically impossible, but they got away with it. But they still need to get their plantation dwellers off their asses long enough to vote 10-15 times. They always get away with it. That is even more terrifying than the physical assaults.
THE SECRET TO THEIR SUCCESS
BERNIE NEVER HAD A STEADY JOB UNTIL HE WAS FORTY AND SLITHERED INTO POLITICS.THIS IS HIM.
Last night was another sorry display of the utter contempt the left has for our electoral process.The “moderators” were a pair of useless hacks named Gwen I-need-a-re-Fill and Al Hunt’s old lady, hereafter known as AHOL.
PBS’ Donor-Moderator Fails to Ask Hillary About Clinton Foundation
Co-moderator Judy Woodruff happens to be a donor to the Clinton Foundation, and faced criticism from the PBS ombudsman in 2015 for giving to the Clintons.
Woodruff is one of several journalists who has contributed to the Clinton Foundation, which has been criticized as a “slush fund” for the Clintons’ own expenses, rather than on direct giving to charitable programs. Neither Woodruff nor co-moderator Gwen Ifill broached the subject. Clinton’s rival, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), has also declined to criticize her for her emails and potential conflicts of interest. http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2016/02/11/dem-debate-avoids-questions-about-clinton-foundation/
Sanders Sounds Off On Hillary: “You Aren’t In The White House Yet”
Then came this moment during a discussion on the two candidates’ plans to expand government. Fed up with Clinton’s arrogant air of assumption she will be the nominee, Sanders reminded her of one thing:
Comrade Sanders: “I’m Running For President” For The 11 Million Illegal Immigrants…
‘That is a low blow’: Democratic debate derails after Hillary torches Bernie over past Obama criticism
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont) had a terse back-and-forth near the end of the Thursday-night Democratic presidential debate, during which Sanders accused Clinton of a “low blow.”
Clinton took an opportunity to rip Sanders over his past criticism of President Barack Obama.
First, thanks to Almighty God to hear our Chrissy is OK. She’s home resting and has been too weak to write. We will continue to pray until she is back with us. Also, prayers for Bluebird to get her furnace fixed soon. Where she lives in Wisconsin is no place to be without heat in February. Her only alternative is to huddle under a thick quilt with all her grandcats. They’ll keep her warm.
The South Carolina primary is Tuesday and The Bitch and The Bern are putting on a pathetic display of pandering to the plantation-dwelling, welfare-sucking constituency that reside in that state. Word is, they’ve made their deals: Sanders is meeting with Rev. Al Sharptongue and promised to write off the $5 million in back taxes he owes. Hillary! has promised St. Skittles’ birth mammy NOT to try singing old Negro spirituals.
Hillary Clinton to Campaign with the Mothers of Trayvon Martin and Eric Garner
Sources say she will hone her message on systematic racism and criminal justice reform.
Senator Bernie Sanders won the New Hampshire primary last night, beating out Hillary Clinton with almost 60% of the vote. According to a report from Politico this morning, the loss is causing the Clinton campaign to re-focus their attention on racial injustice and criminal justice reform.
In addition, Clinton will be hitting the campaign trail with Sybrina Fulton and Gwen Carr, who are the mothers of Trayvon Martin and Eric Garner respectively. Both Fulton and Carr endorsed Clinton last month, citing their faith in Hillary’s stance on gun violence.
Hillary Clinton: Black Kids Are Being Shot for the Color of Their Skin
John Lewis Slams Bernie’s Civil Rights Activism: ‘I Never Saw Him’
THE CONGRESSMAN WITH A PENIS FOR A HEAD: I AIN’T SEE NO JEW CRACKA ON THE BUS! HILLARY PROMISE US SOME REPIMICATIONS.
Sanders has noted that he participated in the March on Washington and was arrested while he was a student at the University of Chicago when he tried to desegregate housing at the university and the surrounding neighborhoods.
“To be very frank, I never saw him. I never met him,” Lewis said in response to a question about Sanders’s civil rights advocacy. He pointed out that he met both Clintons during the civil rights era. http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2016/02/11/3008706/
I THINK TOMORROW WOULD BE A GOOD TIME TO BREAK OUT SOME FUNNY; STAY TUNED
I googled “SAPS Clinton” and found a story at Fox News, plus some mentions in conservative blogs. This is like the Gosnell trial; the Left Stream Media will cover it at gun point … maybe … and even then they’ll manage to make it sound like a right-wing conspiracy.
Former CIA Director David Petraeus was prosecuted by the Justice Department for sharing intelligence from special access programs (SAPS) with his mistress, Paula Broadwell. The retired four-star general pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor in April 2015. He was sentenced to two years of probation and ordered to pay a $100,000 fine.
It is gratifying to know that my fellow blogger and bestest buddy CtH shares the deep disappointment I’m sure many of us feel about Sarah Palin endorsing The Donald. I have never been ambiguous about my feelings toward Trump. I enjoy watching him slap the media around but I don’t trust him one iota. He’s not running because he wants to make things better, he’s running for the attention. He laps it up like a thirsty hound. Sarah threw away years of goodwill with her joining the circus that is the Trump campaign. My guess, which is as good as anybody’s, is that Palin has been screwed over by the GOPe so badly she’s only in it for herself now. I doubt she will be his VP candidate, given that the left’s vitriol toward her is still an all-consuming fire. I do, however, think he’s promised her a position, perhaps as Energy secretary. Trump is using ethanol subsidies to pander for votes in Iowa, even though it’s a fact (Algore admitted it) that ethanol does nothing for gas and he lied about it just to get votes in 2000. Meanwhile, underdeveloped countries are starving for the corn that once was used for food that now is wasted in refining fossil fuels.
Sarah Palin Just Threw Away Years of Goodwill as a Principled Conservative
While Trump has been sharply criticized by many (including me) for his lack of support for conservative principles on many issues, Palin has been viewed as a conservative standard-bearer ever since she first appeared on the national scene in 2008. Much of Palin’s popularity with tea partiers and conservative activists comes from her willingness to be a strong voice for conservative principles, and sadly, today’s endorsement stands in direct contradiction to many of Palin’s own words over the years.
On abortion On eminent domain On mocking people with disabilities On flip-flopping politicians
Today, Palin is standing in Ames, Iowa to put her support behind someone who cannot be trusted to protect the unborn, who has twice traded in his wives for younger models (literally), who claims to be for the “little guy” but who has been all too willing to use government as a hired thug to line his own pockets, and who spent years making significant donations to Hillary Clinton, the likely Democratic nominee.
I miss the Sarah Palin I thought I knew. I miss the tough-talking governor who energized the 2008 ticket. I miss the tea party champion. I miss the brave woman who didn’t just talk the talk, but walked the walk on the pro-life issue, no matter how nasty the attacks on her and her family. I don’t know where this Sarah Palin went, but she wasn’t in Iowa today. http://journal.ijreview.com/2016/01/252168-sarah-palin-just-threw-away-years-goodwill-principled-conservative/
