I see it as a spectrum. Virtually all people value people who we like and like us. The next part of the spectrum are people who only like people who like them. That is a big part of the spectrum. Then there are people who can like people who don't reciprocate. A much smaller degree of the spectrum. Finally, there are people who can find something to like in all people. They include Elwood P. Dowd and Jesus. Knowing where one fits on the spectrum is important. Many are clueless. ndspinellihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01446291993043775612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-717986195212622043.post-52938572641269318912016-06-13T23:36:23.346-04:002016-06-13T23:36:23.346-04:00Bags and April are an important part of this blog....<i>Bags and April are an important part of this blog.</i><br /><br />They were both good audiences for some of the music links I posted, so I have selfish reasons for valuing them. chickelithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10773887469972534979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-717986195212622043.post-14433200962632873052016-06-13T23:34:55.715-04:002016-06-13T23:34:55.715-04:00Not me.

This is why they go directly to the emotionality of their ideology to get you to play their game or at least the low hanging fruit voters. I know many of you are utterly immune to their ideological stupidity, but many are not. Once they employ these tactics then it's open season on the mind of the society. Obama, Hillary, Sanders, any number of homosexual and deviant groups, et al. can call the sky and the ocean pink, because since society doesn't want to appear bigoted or hateful, they will nod obsequiously and accept the dogma.<br /><br />So when a toilet paper shit rag like the Advocate blames hateful white Christians for killing 50 people in a gay nightclub in Orlando, they know what they are doing? They are literally stepping their own dead to forward their agenda of furthering homosexual rights even more and making the case for it. They don't care that 50 homosexuals and another several dozen more injured died. They only care that their agenda gets pushed forward on the blood of their martyrdom. In effect, these people are no different than ISIS or any other terrorist organization that celebrates the martyrdom of their dead for their cause. Proof that their deviancy literally knows no bounds in its drive ever forward into sheer and utter lunacy.Methadrashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07828014989470539375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-717986195212622043.post-46174171463631566012016-06-13T17:42:00.067-04:002016-06-13T17:42:00.067-04:00Bags and April are an important part of this blog....Bags and April are an important part of this blog. ndspinellihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01446291993043775612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-717986195212622043.post-72629527356673838822016-06-13T17:40:26.823-04:002016-06-13T17:40:26.823-04:00"Romney, French, Kristol, Kelly."

But you see ...I think we agree almost the time Haz. But you see the facts have not changed fundamentally this weekend. They have only come in stark relief to the situation at hand.<br /><br />The fundamental problem was that Obama, Hillary, Paul Ryan, Mitt Romney, David French, Bill Kristol and Megyn Kelly and all the rest live in a world of political correctness that will allow our destruction. They support unfettered immigration. They support the emasculation of the police and the release of criminals into society both foreign and domestic.<br /><br />In my view this was easy to spot. Trump is the only one who addressed it forcefully and from an American perspective. Nonsense like Trump University and calling a Mexican Judge out is just silly. Foolish in my view.<br /><br />Look at Obama. He is not an American first. He is a black man. A socialist. A liberal. A Democrat. A Muslim or at least a Muslim apologist if he has to hide his true nature. He is about fifty things before he is an American. Trump is the only one who will call him out as he has today. Get ready for the push back. The backlash. The legions of the politically correct saying he can't say that. He can't say we have to stop immigration from failed terrorists states until we get a handle on it. Now is the time to step up and stop the foolish nonsense.<br /><br />We don't have to agree on everything. But we have to agree on the one big thing. Because if we can't this terrorist attack will just be the pimple on the ass of things to come.<br /><br />Trooper Yorkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01978703998566102194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-717986195212622043.post-67098860326085100802016-06-13T16:41:23.380-04:002016-06-13T16:41:23.380-04:00That is the only civilized approach to beef.That is the only civilized approach to beef.The Dudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05354536924604187137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-717986195212622043.post-4287487016038746742016-06-13T16:05:06.595-04:002016-06-13T16:05:06.595-04:00The original crackers were cowboys.

We know what the deal is and what the problem is. You mention the morons at TOP. Well if this doesn't wake them up nothing will. The Muslims came in and slaughtered their sons and daughters in the midst of their perversions. To Obama that is just something we have to adsorb and the price we have to pay to be politically correct and not call Muslim terror what it is. They will never learn.<br /><br />As far as foolish people like April and Bags they have a stark choice. They can continue to nitpick and flirt with doing things destructive to Trump's candidacy. Or not. But they should realize that he is the only thing standing between us and the total triumph of political correctness. The political correctness that stopped this guy from being fired by his Muslim supervisor because of his threats and crazy behavior. If Hillary or the Democrats win it will just be more of the same. The choice is simple. There can be no excuse. There will continue to be incidents like this right up to the election.
