The Truth or Not From Senator Reid
Senator Reid had to get on television today, December 27, 2012, claiming we are headed for the fiscal cliff drop-off and, of course, it is all Rep. Boehner’s fault, when it isn’t simply all the Republicans’ fault. It couldn’t be a bit of liberal or Democrat fault in there, too, for they are the all enlightened and all-knowing, it would seem. And, this is not to mention that it is fine for the president to go on vacation in Hawaii and the Democrats to go home for Christmas, but how dare the Republicans do likewise. Them thar Republicans is bad folks fer doing what them Democrats done did, too. We all know how that works. The goose gets by with everything and the gander gets blamed for it in the world of politics and political posturing.
Reid told us that Mitt Romney didn’t pay taxes for years and demanded that he prove he did. He even used the Senate floor to do this campaign gesture to make Romney look like a tax evader. However, Romney did pay taxes and ole Reid got by with making false allegations. But now we are to believe him. We are to believe that what Reid is saying today is true, even if what he said during the campaign wasn’t. It must be true — it came out of his mouth — right? Wrong, because the deceitful and false comments came out of there as well.
The truth or not from Senator Reid — how can we ever know?
Republican Scare Tactics or Common Sense Inquiry?
I can’t believe some of the comments that come from the liberal mouths of madness. Their thoughts miss the dots and they are all over the place with claims they throw out, but don’t provide support for. Mostly, they claim the other side is guilty of what they themselves are doing or saying or thinking. It’s simply amazing. So, are there truly Republican scare tactics going on involving voter fraud or is common sense inquiry justified and what is actually transpiring?
According to Human Events, witnesses at an Ohio voting station were concerned because there were a great many non-English speaking Somalis arriving in groups to vote. Apparently, only those supporting the Democrat candidates and positions were advising and providing slate cards. I’d say that is a legitimate reason for concern. Were the Democrat supporters assisting the voters in how to vote the voter’s choice, telling them how to vote or even misleading them into voting contrary to their wishes?
It isn’t scare tactics by any, including the Republicans, to have concerns about non-English conversations at a voting station, especially if the potential voters seem to need directives on who to vote for — not just how to vote for their choice.
People who vote in our elections are required to be United State citizens. What part of that doesn’t the liberal mind comprehend? The concept of “required” because it doesn’t fit their immediate agenda and effort?
According to the liberal minds that I have been witness to, especially recently, the Republicans are required to abide by all rules, regulations and politically correct requirements as per whatever happens to be considered PC at any given moment, while the liberals are supposedly allowed to skip all that and do what feels good and gets them whatever they want whenever they want it. Rules don’t count when it is liberals involved, it would seem.
Liberals would be the first to scream, if it were Republicans or Conservatives speaking to voters in an unfamiliar language and offering directions on how to vote the non-democrat or non-liberal way. That’s a fact and they needn’t try to deny it.
Non-English should not be allowed at a voting station, unless both sides are available to make sure the person is both qualified to vote and that the conversation is a legit explanation of how to vote the person’s choice — not simply how they were directed to vote because they were easy prey.
Scare tactics? Sometimes it is common sense to ask questions and be concerned. Sometimes the concern is based on very real reason for concern. Sometimes people really are involved in breaking all the rules and need to be called on it. Sometimes it is actually common sense inquiry that really needs to be inquired about. Sometimes it really is!
The Allegations of Racism
Earlier, I read a column suggesting that Republicans are racist. I became quite annoyed. Okay, I became far more than annoyed at the careless allegations being so freely and wrongly thrown around for what appeared to be a self-serving motive to promote Democrats and demonize Republicans.
I have known a great many Democrats and Republicans in my life. Never do I knowingly associate with racists no matter what skin shade they might happen to be, because I don’t like racists. Never have and never will. And, contrary to the opinion of the author of the piece that annoyed me so, the majority of racists I have ever known have been Democrats, not Republicans. That’s right! Democrats.
The difference between that author and me is that I don’t assume all Democrats are made out of a single mold, nor do I think Republicans are either. Libs on the other hand, I’m not so sure about. Their craziness seems to come from a singular mindset and no one knows what they are going to come up with next.
Back to racism though.
The Democrats are the ones that started up the KKK and encouraged what was to become Planned Parenthood, not for the good of women, but to get rid of as many of the unacceptables as they could. The KKK didn’t like Blacks or Catholics or Jews or anyone who supported any who were. So, just how can people now claim the Democrats are not racists and trying to protect the Blacks from the mean ole Republicans? You know, the Republicans that fought for Civil Rights and such as the Democrats fought against it.
Some true history needs to be read, rather than simply reading these outlandish claims that are anything but representative of the truth.
Authors such as the one I am referring to, can propaganda it all they want, but it’s not our obligation to believe these horrendous fables simply because they do. It is our obligation to seek out the truth and be willing to accept it once it is found.
Just like it is a lie that Republicans are trying to take away women’s contraceptives, it is a lie that they, as a group, are racists.
Public Relations is meant to sway people to think and act in a particular way. Propaganda is PR on steroids, with no concern about truth in advertising. It is meant, or most often used, to promote a known lie and to obtain a goal by whatever means is necessary.
False accusations of racism against the Republicans (as a whole) are just that. It is propaganda. It’s a known lie. That is something that should matter to us all. It’s time to say, “No more! No more lies!”
