In reply to the discussion: Are either of the Clintons Liberals? [View all]baldguy
(36,649 posts)And you use the same methods too: Start with an agenda, pick a lie, repeat the lie often, attack anyone who wants to correct the lie, then repeat the lie again. And after your audience has been saturated with the lie, you test them to see how deep your propaganda has infected them.
In your case, it's the lie that the Clintons are some sort of RW neo-con moles who've infiltrated & taken over the Democratic Party, and this poisonous, divisive attitude is by extension directed toward the current Democratic President and the current party leadership, and any incumbent Democrat - all in spite of the fact that the GOP impeached Clinton, has done everything possible to obstruct Obama's liberal agenda, is planning on impeaching him when they gain power, and will be impeaching Hillary or any other Democratic President in the future if they have a chance.
You seem to have the same objective as the RW propaganda machine also: to see the Democratic Party & their liberal agenda lose, and to have them never have influence in American politics ever again.
So your OP was dripping with bias. The fact that you fear to be honest about it - like Fox News & other RW propaganda sources - and also fear to allow your audience the benefit of having all the available information and make up their own mind. In your defense, you claim to only want liberal policies enacted, but the lie is exposed because you oppose the very people in place to act on & implement those policies (mainstream liberal Democrats), simply because (your claim) they're unable to achieve 110% of your claimed goals. You refuse to acknowledge that the US is a republic with a population with varying interests & objectives.
In short, you want a dictatorship.
Your attitude & actions being so similar to that of the very people actual liberals & Democrats in general are fighting against (the corporate oligarchs, RW libertarians, anti-govt Teabaggers, religious fanatics, & general RW fascists) I'm almost convinced it's a parody. Almost.
OTOH, I'm an open book. I don't play games. I don't evade questions. I don't pretend the situation is something it is not. Here it is straight: I will support the Democratic nominee for President of the United States in order to ensure that Republicans are defeated. Can you say the same? I doubt it. And now that Elizabeth Warren has "caved in" and "sold out" and has been agreed to join the leadership in the Senate Democratic caucus, how long will it be before you toss her under the bus? Days, I imagine.
This country needs to promote & enact liberal policy solutions. The ONLY path for doing that is via the Democratic Party. The GOP is a lost cause. Third parties are unrealistic, pie-in-the-sky fantasies, and any effort promoting them undermines the Democrats and only helps the opposition. Your phony concern, your counterfeit leftist rhetoric and your insincere wisdom is tiring, and damaging.
