Title: what happens when you address a "pro-Fox news" town hall.. Post by: ekg on February 20, 2013, 08:21:47 am that you've spent the better part of 5 years egging on with partisan insanity?
well, they eventually turn on you and vomit back "Fox news" one-liners at you.. Quote http://news.yahoo.com/mccain-defends-immigration-plan-angry-residents-004915369.html Also Tuesday, McCain hosted two town hall meetings in Arizona, during which he defended his immigration plan to upset residents concerned about border security. A bipartisan group of senators — including Arizona Republicans McCain and Jeff Flake — want assurances on border security as Congress weighs what could be the biggest changes to immigration law in nearly 30 years. Arizona is the only state with both of its senators working on immigration reform in Congress, a sign of the state's widely debated border security issues. ... McCain said a tamper-proof Social Security card would help combat identity fraud, and noted any path to citizenship must require immigrants to learn English, cover back taxes and pay fines for breaking immigration laws. "There are 11 million people living here illegally," he said. "We are not going to get enough buses to deport them." Some audience members shouted out their disapproval. One man yelled that only guns would discourage illegal immigration. Another man complained that illegal immigrants should never be able to become citizens or vote. A third man said illegal immigrants were illiterate invaders who wanted free government benefits. poor McCain, hoisted by his own petard.. Quote McCain urged compassion. "We are a Judeo-Christian nation," he said. McCain's other town hall meeting took place in Green Valley, south of Tucson. dude, after 5 years of your party screaming over and over and over "they want our freee gov benefits"... "Only guns with stop illegal immigration".... "no amnesty, ever".... "deport all 11 million today"... you expect compassion? HHHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA AHJAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHFUCKYOU!

Post by: uselesslegs on February 20, 2013, 12:55:15 pm It is amazing to watch him look put off and somewhat shocked that his constituents reject a rational, compassionate path to citizenship. When as you said...he, as well as Fox, Rush, Malkin, Hannity, Savage and the rest...have subtlety and overtly pounded the anger and fear of the cosmos into these rubes heads about not just illegal immigrants, but even legal ones.
It was an election game/acting to him. Of course, he can't say that to his constituents who are too dumb to figure it out for themselves. He can turn the partisan and bipartisan off and on. He's not Santorum, West, or Rand Paul. He's an old man, often out of touch, yelling from his front porch...but he's not bat shit crazy like the TP thinking people in that room with him, or in congress. For him, he just turned off the partisan, because he sees the bigger picture. He and the other actors in his party FINALLY figured out running the "straight white campaign" will relegate them to 3rd party status. But the problem is, hes not appealing to the moderates in his party that perhaps bought into Rush and Foxs' crap for a time. Those people can probably be deprogrammed...but you can't deprogram the fuck'in lunacy they invited to their folds. Those fuckers he entertained didn't need to be sold, they were already whack-a-nut, fearful, nationalist, bigots...who got friggin super charged with all the incendiary shit. He's not going to change their minds, or give them something rational to ponder...because that would actually involve them having the ability to amp down and entertain other rationals.

Right now is puppy time. We picked up this morning.

The bubble-makers are just out for petty-vindictiveness. Hell the fact that they don't support their own bills if Obama/Reid supports them should be proof of that, but for some reason I can't explain the 'bubble-breathers' can't seem to figure this out.. they think the 'bubble-maker' is just really standing up to the president because they have values when no, they're just being dick-head cry babies that the black man won twice and if Mitt had won, they'd jump all over themselves voting for the exact same things they are filibustering Obama on.. every now and then tho.. something comes along that's rational and actually good for the country and the 'Bubble-maker' wants to vote for it.. or they realize they're in bed with extremists like Ted "I'm the new McCarthy" Cruz and it scares them into seeing clearly for a minute..either way, like you said, it's all been a game to them in the 1st place so they just switch hats and go out onto the 'middle-ground'.. and holy shit.. they find out the hell-scape they have created is super-retard-Frankenstein.. and any swaying away from the bubble they've created is met with violence and anger.. and any slight deviation to the left, even one as so unpronounced as "we can't deport them all so we'll fine them,tax them and force them to speak English" is met with "What are you? a Communist Socialist?" someone made an observation on all of McCain's wishy-washy-ness on a plethora of issues since Obama was elected and even back from when he ran against Bush and Bush made him the father of that illegitimate black child..and they noted that McCain's never really been a "Maverick".. he seen as one because he was GOP and he'd call out GWB for awhile there after the illegitimate-child thing.. What McCain really is is a vindictive old coot who can't let a grudge go.. whose anger issues control how vindictive and curmudgeonly he is.. and for the most part, he's Charlie Crist without the tan because he's not 'bucking any system' he's simply going where ever the angry winds blow him.. either way, it's going to be hilarious to watch 1/2 the party try and get out of the bubble they've created alive and intact.. while watching new bubble makers like Cruz destroy even more of the Republican brand. It isnt going to be pretty, or especially easy for Democrats.. but they next generation of children who are watching these circa 1950's and before ideologues are being turned off in droves from anything having to do with (R) and conservatism.. |
