Much has changed in America since the last year... since the last few months and weeks even! The hope and joy that once filled American has turned to great despair and dread concern. We have had many great challenges before in our nation's past but we have never experienced an inward hostile takeover of our three branches of government as we have last week. The years of l*****t pr********n and incrementalism have finally paid off and they have seized the power and are now implementing their socialistic secular lawless tyrannical agenda full bore. This present state of helplessness and great concern has now finally engulfed the hearts of those Americans who had once clung onto optimistic appraisals and hopes. They have now finally come to understand that the very hour in which they are now living in is indeed the end of America. Great worry and concern is now found throughout the New Media including Rush Limbaugh and in the conservative movement in general. Optimistic appraisals of our return to our Founder's vision for America are now but a vapor and the reality of our nation's estate have finally set in frightening those who now understand and can see that the implosion (morally and fiscally) of our nation is at hand and lawlessness, tyranny and governmental s***ery are at our very door.


I would liken our nation to a loved one, who has been hit by a car and is in the critical care unit of the hospital. He shows possible signs of recovery and there is great relief among his loved ones at the future prospect that he will survive and get some of his functions back. He will not be fully restored to the way he once was, but at least he will be with us and we can love him. Then... the doctor purposely prescribes the wrong medications and as a result of this doctor's diabolical deed our love one is now placed in a comma and is in a greater state of emergency than the first. He has now received brain damage due to the medication's complications of his poisoning and to continue to live he must be on life support. Our moment of temporary joy and hopeful optimism at our love one's partial recovery is now turn to great anger, despair and hopelessness. The reality that our loved one will never recover from his doctor's injustice and injury has made us angry and fully grieved, for the reality has now set in that we will never be able to interact or enjoy our loved one again, for he is indeed truly gone and we are helpless to save him. We have tried to do all that is within our power but must now come to the very sobering realization as he lies on life support that he is lost and has not much time left in this world. My friend that is how I and others now feel about our nation's present estate. The jig is finally up and we fully know that indeed very troubling days of tyranny, lawlessness and oppression are at our very door as a nation... and the world.

The anti-Constitutional secular left have finally fulfilled their secular tyrannical desire and have slain our Founding Father's vision and our Constitution in which it cannot return. The glass is broke and unrepairable. It is my personal opinion - with lawlessness abounding in all three branches of U.S. Government - that anarchy, oppression, fiscal depression and civil war is at hand and it is just a matter of time before our national implosion (fiscally and morally) finally occurs.

Our U.S. government (local/national) has been occupied and saturated with those who H**E and DESPISE all that our Founding Fathers stood for. The Laws of Nature and of Nature's God (Almighty God's moral absolutes for time) have been under the unrelenting secular jihad of those who disdain and abhor their Creator and all that represent His moral absolutes (Rom. 1:18-32, Jude 1:8,10). Our current president is the fulfillment of all these godless secularist twisted dreams and hopes. He has been absolutely hell bent on the destruction and disintegration of our nation and its Judeo/Christian heritage and has been very successful in his war against our Constitution.

Over the last 75 years the secular socialistic seed has been planted, watered and nourished. The time has now finally come in our history to reap this secular socialistic harvest and Obama has been the man to "git R done". Obama's policies, euphemisms and twisted justifications of his lawless actions have cut through the rotted America social core as a hot knife through warm butter. Fifty years of lawless indoctrination, critical theory, secularism, moral relativism and socialistic kool aid has dumbed down and made drunk this nation's citizens and has made this nation's inhabitants ripe for the pickings and dumb as a rock.

America's clueless pleasure seeking narcissistic inhabitants (Right, Moderate and Liberal) and governmental program addicts have all been mentally and morally passed out and at the wheel for years, while America has been stealthily taken over. As the U.S. frog has been slowly cooked over 75 years so have our nation's inhabitants. Many have finally woken up since the Lefts (in 2006) and Obama's (in 2008) takeover of America, but it has been a little too late; for the damage has long been done and the lawless reaper's now have come.

This day the Left rejoices in a new "lawless revolution" that has finally taken over the Founding Father's vision of America. The Left celebrates a new nation born to replace our old one which was founded on the Laws of Nature and of Natures God. Almighty God has been finally ousted from our three branches of government and a secular agenda and government is now the new god of America. We look back at what once was America and understand that we are now in a new era, a new realm, a new estate ever evolving now into f*****t tyrannical state of despotism and anarchy. The American Lefts f*****m, which has hid behind a smiley face for years has now revealed its self to be the consuming D**gon of old (John 8:44, Eph. 6:12, Rev. 12:9). Make no mistakes my friends more is at work here then the hands of lawless man (2 Cor. 4:3-4, Eph.6:12). The Master politician has now set the stage for his soon reception and 666 global state (2 Thess. 2:3-12, Rev. 13) in which none shall escape (1 Thess. 5:1-4, Rev. 6-19).

Our nation's ONLY hope in this dire hour is for each American to turn to Almighty God and to His saving grace. For that is what this little existence here in this fallen world is all about. Almighty God has provided a Savior for time and ETERNITY may it be that you know Him (John 3:16-17).

The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!

I understand exactly what your stating, and agree for the most part. From a social scientist and documented research of over 75 years++ my point I'm trying to get across is the natural man's mind and bias. In the simplest terms....when the human eye looks at a person of another race (pick a race) they instantly see the differences ( not likenesses, not at first), when the ear hears different speak patterns again it is differences that are first detected.
Within ones one race when the human eye looks at another person we first begin to detect likenesses (not differences, that is secondary) and begin to form, ( I like this person) opinions or ideals of there personage. The more likenesses to oneself, the more they determine the "I like you" how many friendships or working relationships begin. However in the absence of likenesses one begins to react to differences in a negative way, and very quickly determine that they don't like someone.
Your black, I'm native we have natural bias against us out of the gate. It is then only cultural (home raising) and how our parents teach us to believe and taught at an early age, our life's experiences how positive or negative our experience is interacting with other races, and then who we develop to be as human beings, ( do we have a good heart) that determines the level of bias, and in other cases turns to r****m, which is also not only taught but environmental.
As one matures and learns it then becomes free will and choice.
To further my point beliefs come into play, I personally believe in smaller, less intrusive government and so on, and since we as human tend to classify.....all attorneys are crooks, all car salesman crooks, which is the farthest thing from the t***h, no more than all conservatives are r****t, or black liberals h**e w****s.
As a native and seeing the glares I receive or followed by security in a department store I understand in most cases it is not r****m, but bias that is in control. I know from a social scientist perspective, but also that person that is glaring in times a conversation begins, the likenesses often take over as does a brief friendship. Because it quacks like a duck, in the case of bias does not always mean it's a duck.

As far as lending....having worked in business. I have personally sent credit applications to banks for approvals. Loans of $10,000-$50,000+++ and if had to guess in only a few years processed a few thousand people and millions in loans. When an application was handed off to me, I structured the loan for term down payment and interest rate, never knowing who was one the other end of the application, then sending to the lender or loan officer and negotiating the loan, always it was credit rating, debt to income, interest rates, loan to value. Never, never once ever was there anyway for the loan officer to ever know the race of the person, period. The exception I can rationalize would be cultural names, or known neighborhoods. In Washington state, oregon, California, new Mexico, Idaho during this period of my life, never loans based on race. So I tend to believe this "loan approval by race" is in pockets of the country and not a trend. A loan officer would have to be a psychic r****t otherwise.

That's bias, not r****t! !!!

First I'm native American, told you in previous thread's. Next I acknowledge that there is a strong bias in America and that is something a black person faces on going. But so does the Chinese, native American, Jew, Russian, korean, and so on, on, on.....I'll give you credit, where credit is do, but also need to separate bias from r****m and that is not something majority of b****s understand. Based on our back and forth s, your mixing them together

5 volcanoes on average, and the sun eerily quite post 11 year cycle. You need to update brother. More volcanoes in 2014, than the previous century combined.

First you need to research volcanos, before you get on your high horse as an expert. Expert at c*******ts/progressive / liberal maybe.

First DAILY on average five (5) volcanoes blow there top up to 30,000 feet into our atmosphere. In 2014 there were as many volcanoes as in the previous century combined. Earthquakes are following the same records, unexplainable by scientists.
However predicted with perfection in bible prophecy.

The last 5 years more co-2 has been created by volcanoes than man world wide in the last 120 years.
So go do as I have done and do some research of just the last 3-5 years and learn.

Try standing on a corner in San Francisco preaching marriage between a man and woman, and quoting the word of God, scriptures of what God says about same sex.
On the opposite corner two gays bashing (vocaly) christians.

And see who does or doesn't have free speech.

In part I find no disagreement, but.....where do you find conservatives want "no government" yes by the voice of a few, not mainstream conservative thought.

Your quote "they would never think a white with those credentials could be that dumb........that is race-driven behavior plain and simple" who is they? Everyone that holds a different view? I'm trying to understand why you have segments you place those with a specific or general view, non liberal.
Once upon a time universities p***ed themselves on directing young minds to deep thinkers, having opposing views and standing on their beliefs with reason and rational, being ready to have an answer. Now that is no longer acceptable with the infiltration of liberal dominance of c*******t style thought police of the universities.often times now a conservative student remains silent for fear b his professor may drop his class. You sir are that mindset, without exercising a scholarly debate on specific issuses, rather take the c*******m methods of admonishing outside thought reason, not dealing with the why's, when, how, only retaliation of the one thought kind.
As I stated before, to not respond is cowardly.

Are you able to communicate with a vocabulary beyond profanity? Thin skinned, and a coward to debate. Makes sense when your only defense is built on lies and r****m

Your a liberal r****t, admit it.

Why Liberals Think Conservatives Are R****t

By Rachel Lu

The sighs of relief from the left are almost audible. R****m lives! The h**e is out there!

It would be unfitting to throw a party for the occasion of h**eful comments from Donald Sterling and Cliven Bundy, but some liberal journalists are probably tempted. “I’m trying to wring some grim humor out of the news, but I’m getting my r****ts all mixed up,” quipped Robin Abcarian of the Los Angeles Times. “Believe it or not,” wrote Mary Curtis in the Washington Post, “something good might arise from the r****t swamp of recent news cycles.” It’s all right, Ms. Curtis. You may proceed with your heel clicks. We all know that multiple high-profile r****ts in a 2-week period make for high times for liberals.

Liberals need r****t foes to vanquish. Most of the time they have to resort to finding them where they obviously aren’t there. Ross Douthat could print his mother’s best cookie recipes, and his New York Times readers would still lambast him as a bigot. (Perhaps we would learn that snickerdoodles are a well-known symbol of oppression in certain sub-cultures.) Paul Ryan can hardly order a sandwich without liberal pundits combing through in search of the r****t “coding” that they know to be hidden within all Republican rhetoric.

To conservative eyes, these accusations rarely achieve escape velocity from the farcical world of liberal paranoia. Figures like Bundy or Sterling predictably set off a tiresome string of rants about hidden r****m and conservative denial, but the universality with which r****t sentiments are condemned tells the real story. It’s hard to see how conservatives could sprint away from r****ts at top speed, while simultaneously wooing v**ers who mostly share their sentiments. As usual, liberal “reflections” on what Bundy and Sterling tell us about conservatives were mostly just silly.

It’s too bad to get back to business as usual in the r****m blame game, because quite recently, Jonathan Chait’s feature in New York Magazine offered some surprisingly helpful insights into liberals and their need for conservative “r****m.” Chait’s piece, and the firestorm that followed, make a fascinating tutorial in liberal paradigms concerning r****m. Looking through their eyes for a moment, it almost starts to make sense why they’re so certain that r****m is a significant moving force behind American conservatism.

The Paranoia of “Coding”

Initially it can be a bit startling to remind oneself that liberals really don’t see their accusations as the political equivalent to calling us poopy-heads; they actually believe that ethnic hatred is an important motivator for conservatives. Some even get frustrated that conservatives have gotten so clever about “coding” our r****t messages, hiding them in subtle subtexts that liberal journalists can’t easily expose (even while our barely-literate backwoods v**ers apparently hear them loud and clear). You can almost picture liberals playing Ryan’s speeches backwards, hoping to catch that “Paul McCartney is dead” moment when the mild-mannered and professorial Ryan secretly taps into the seething cauldron of bigoted rage that he knows to be driving his base.

Apparently some of them do actually realize that they’re overreaching, though it isn’t something they like to hear. Chait poked the bear by explaining some of the history behind the “coding” paranoia and agreeing that conservatives have some reason to resent it. More importantly, Chait explains with admirable clarity one important reason why the r****t-conservative dogma is so important for liberals. A second emerges from the responses to Chait’s piece.

Reason 1: Everyone H**es Reruns

The Ballad of the Civil Rights Movement has long been liberals’ favorite bed-time story. Martin Luther King Day may be the only day of the year when they feel completely, unambiguously proud to be Americans. It’s hard to exaggerate how important this is to liberal political thinking. They are perpetually looking for new ways to recapture that high.

Conservatives tend to miss this because we see the Civil Rights story as settled history. We’re all pleased to have sloughed off the bigotry of our ancestors. Of course we want people to be judged “by the content of their character” and not by their skin. What’s left to debate here?

Liberals have yet to turn that page. This is their favorite series, and like every loyal fan base, they always want another sequel. Indeed, as Chait acknowledges, one of the most appealing things about a 2008 Senator Obama was the perception that he could be the star of a particularly thrilling new episode. Of course, if that’s the storyline, it’s no mystery which role was available for conservatives. “Racial coding” became a convenient fix for a glaring plot hole: Republican politicians’ refusal to follow their r****t script.

Of course, for conservatives this is a pretty bad deal. We can’t stop being the r****t party if that’s the only “role” our political enemies have available. At most we can ask liberals to consider who is served by their implicit demand that r****m never die. A film director can afford to keep resurrecting Moriarty or Lex Luther for the amusement of his story-hungry audiences; in politics we should leave our vanquished villains in their historical chapters. Modern liberal oppression narratives are far and away the most expensive dramas ever produced, and we all get d**gged to see them whether we’re interested or not.

As grim as this sounds, it may actually be the more remediable liberal fixation. Another liberal paradigm (which is well articulated by Brian Beutler of The New Republic), leaves even less wiggle-room for a conservatism that actually serves the common good.

Reason 2: What Else Besides R****m Could Persuade Middle-Class Schmucks To Support Plutocracy?

Beutler is gracious enough to agree with Chait that, “the left’s racial analysis of conservative politics might lend itself to careless or opportunistic, overreaching accusations of r****m.” But he doesn’t feel too bad about it, because as he goes on to argue, liberals are fundamentally right about conservative r****m. White racial resentment is one of the primary sources of energy behind American conservatism. It has to be, because that’s the only plausible explanation for why anyone but the rich and privileged would support the GOP.

To his credit, Beutler doesn’t probe the sub-conscious of high-profile conservatives for unconfessed bigotry. He is cheerfully prepared to admit (and he thinks most liberals would agree) that racial hatred plays a small role in the motivations of the major players. For them, it’s all about greed. Their policies are pitched to protect their own wealth and privilege at the expense of the poor.

But the ultra-wealthy (as we have been reminded ad nauseum) are a small minority in America, and poorer v**ers have little reason to support a plutocratic agenda that doesn’t serve them. In order to stay viable, therefore, Republicans need a populist hook. That hook, Beutler believes, is racial resentment.

Conservative readers might be asking: why in the world would he believe that? To liberals it seems obvious. Conservatives are ferocious in their assault on programs that disproportionately enlist ethnic minorities, including Medicaid, food stamps and welfare. How else to explain that except as a manifestation of white Republicans’ r****t schadenfreude?

It’s hard to know where to begin with such convoluted reasoning. The conservative distaste for entitlements is deeply connected to our political philosophy; all of our most cherished values come into play here. And we have plenty of sociological evidence to present, now that the scars of entitlement dependency blight every major city in America, bequeathing to our poorest children a legacy of dysfunction and vice. But sure, let’s write all of that off as a manifestation of conservative greed and hatred. That would make so much more sense.

In order to make sense of such an apparently-crazy view, we need to remind ourselves of some further features of liberal ideology. To conservatives it seems crazy and wildly uncharitable to dismiss their (well-grounded) views as manifestations of an irrational animus against ethnic minorities. But to liberals this seems reasonable, because embedded deep within the liberal worldview is the idea that the end of the day all political activity can be seen as part of a story about warring classes. It’s another trope that we can lay at the feet of our still-fashionable friend, Karl Marx.

Marx declares early in The C*******t Manifesto that, “The history of all hitherto existing societies is a history of class struggles.” This is one of those sweeping interpretive claims that sounds silly to the uninitiated, but that starts to seem all-important to those who have adopted it as their central political paradigm. Marx was a wonderful storyteller, and his fairy tale still holds much power over the minds of modern people, as we’ve recently seen in the furor over Thomas Piketty’s “Capital in the Twenty-First Century.”

As Marx understands it, societies are made up of multiple classes that perpetually jockey for relative advantage. Open warfare is avoided through a complex balance of agreements that enable each class to “hold its own” in the larger social structure. Some are better off than others, but all have something to lose if the arrangement collapses and turns into open warfare. Before the Industrial Revolution humans had crafted a fairly well-functioning “class ecosystem”, but rapidly expanding markets interrupted that balance by massively empowering one particular class (specifically the medieval burghers) to bring all others to heel. Now called “the bourgeoisie”, these new overlords wielded the immense power of the modern market as a weapon, harnessing all the other classes in an exploitative system that overwhelmingly benefited themselves.

It’s a story we all know, whether or not we’ve read. For liberals especially, The C*******t Manifesto is far more important than Cinderella. It wafts its way through their dreams and colors their entire social outlook. Of course we know that capitalists are castigated as exploiters and tyrants. That’s only the beginning, however. Everything is a zero-sum game in this outlook. That means that every move Republicans make must represent an attempt to win some marbles away from Democratic v**ers, which of course will be tossed into the overflowing treasure chests of Republican elite.

How do we know that Republicans are r****t? Well, we don’t get much support from ethnic minorities, and we dislike entitlement programs. If you see the world through a Marxist class-warfare paradigm, that really does look like adequate evidence to make the case.

Spreading the Good News

Conservatives have favorite stories too. We love our Constitutional Convention and our melting-pot of immigration. We get misty-eyed over the Greatest Generation and their triumphs in World War II. We believe that America is a special country. Conservative narratives have a level of transcendence that liberals simply don’t understand, which means that they can reject the dreary sameness of perpetual class warfare.

In fairness, some of the ideas that spring from those commitments are surprising, and may even seem naive. For example, most conservatives seem fairly confident that the r****m of our ancestors can just be discarded in the dust bin of history. Historically, this might seem unlikely, since racial resentment often burns on for centuries, consuming generation after generation in blood feuds and bitter grudge-matches. To Marxists, the cheerful conservative determination just to shut the book and move on comes across as childishly obtuse. Surely we at least need to roil in resentment and self-recrimination first?

Most incredible to liberals, however, is our claim that good economic policy (especially when combined with a well-ordered social structure) is actually good for everyone. We’re not all jockeying for the same pot of goods. It isn’t a zero-sum game. More opportunity for me can mean more prosperity for you, and vice-versa. We can all win.

This is the conservative Gospel, as it were. Conservatives tell Americans: we don’t have to fight over the pie! Let’s just make it bigger! Success is not a rationed commodity!

Like another piece of Good News two millennia ago, this just seems absurd to most liberals. Free markets are good for everyone? Get out. Can you people please just fess up and admit that you’re closeted r****ts?

Setting these two “political narratives” side by side, it’s not hard to choose the mo
