Well, if you start with a false premise, then the conclusion is always wrong.
If leftists told the truth about their policies, their beliefs, or their goals,
they’d get 10% of the vote.
They are simply “know better” elitists that are arrogant enough to think they can make your decisions for you better than you can.
This is why they “can’t win” in a fair discussion. Either it’s obvious that they’re lying, or their agenda is unpalatable.
Who is this idiot? He says the “progressives’ have been too nice? His so-called “tolerant” progressives are the most intolerant folks around. And, to answer his question as to why they are not winning the debate? That’s an easy question to answer: They wrap themselves in emotion rather than logic and reason, so their argument is doomed from the start.
“Liberals and “progressives” can’t tell the truth.”
It’s not that they can’t tell the truth. It’s that they don’t dare for fear of being found out. What they want is to take power from the many and give it to a few by confiscating the wealth of some and using it to buy the votes of others. Since they know that the many don’t want to be powerless and that the rich don’t want to be poor, they have no choice but to disguise their intentions.
show how much of a thick elitist idiot he is.
the left play nice, etc
ARF
they act like the NAZIS party , rat mail
sending out paid thugs
talking about hitting back twice as hard
dropping charges v the black racists in Philly
the Dem party is nothing but a party of elitist and if you left wing trolls do not think so then look at where your base of support comes from
rich men like soros
the north east and parts of the west coast
you lefty trolls are nothing but snotty nosed elitist sheep,you think driving a hybrid and diversity is cool but you live in a mostly white area in a big house thus more pollution
you like designer shopping malls like saks but think nothing of the trees you cut down for your malls
you pay silly prices at starbucks but then say give to the poor
the north east does not give as much as the south in charity but you preach about Africa
you think it is cool for a chinese kid to be bought but you foget about the inner city kids in this country
to you snobby elitist lefty sheep everything you do is about status and yet you fail to see the hypocrisy
westchester county NY is a prime example of a Dem area
you don’t stand for the working man or women you put people into groups so they can compete against each other
you say to blacks they are too dumb to get a job based on brains so you say give them a job based on color thought a racist programmes named affirmative action
you make me sick
you get in peoples faces who cannot fight back but complain if someone does fight back you want to press charges

An essential belief of the Progressive religion is in the perfectibility of Man and in the agency of the State to bring about that end. Because neither people nor governments are perfect or capable of perfection, Progressives will always be unhappy, blaming not their own unreasoning ideology but other people for failing to meet an unachievable standard. The inevitable result is physical force or its implied threat, multiplied until people will stand it no longer.
It is clearly not necessary to be an English major to fall prey to such a miserable ideology, but it equally appears to be of some assistance. I postulate this is so because certain academics confuse the malleability of words with that of their fellow human beings.
It's worse than that, Neil.
Not only are you more articulate (to accept your argument), but you also control the media of the message, stifle arguments on the other side, dismiss them en masse as the lunatic fringe, and still can't seem to convince anyone of the merits of your side.
You're a self-proclaimed smart guy, Neil. What does that indicate to you, brain-trust?
Oh. What a novel approach.
It’s very simple...
1. because their ideas have been proven over and over again that they don’t work
2. they haven’t managed, yet, to control the flow of information so that people are kept ignorant of that fact... but they’re trying. Next will be an assault on free speech.
We conservatives are realists. We look at a situation and we know instinctively what will work and what won’t. We are much more in tune with human nature.
Liberals just want change, and that wonderful, fashionable (/s!) concept known as “progress”. However just any change for the sake of change won’t work. Libs always shoot for some pie in the sky and in the process completely ignore human nature.
I was expecting more English major jokes by now.
In the few English courses I took in college (I was an engineering major), I realized that the grades were all subjective. An old book written by a "dead white male" could be interpreted a lot of ways, especially when the author isn't there to give his say. Want to get a good grade? Just repeat what your professor says about the book.
English major aren't used to backing up their arguments with facts, like mathematical theories or laws of physics.
They always were and always will be on the wrong side of history. It makes our job all the more difficult.
With few exceptions, the progressives controlled the White House from the middle of the 18th century right up until FDR was elected.
Of course the progressives back then were Republicans.
i was an “english” major. education is meaningless without common sense. keeping your head shoved so far up a dark stinky place does not give one greater insight as to the workings of the world.
Here’s an interesting little thing that Mr. Neil should focus his miniscule brain on - a columnist for the LATimes travelled with zero for the last 9 months of the campaign last year. When it was over, he stated that he still didn’t know who Barack Hussain Obama was!!
Mr. Neil should comtemplate that over his next bowl of Cap’n Crunch!
Really? Is he serious?
Are liberals really sitting around wondering why they can’t win a debate with words when their basic factual logic itself is so obscenely flawed?
I mean everybody knows that a college degree these days from *most* universities isn’t a measure of one’s intellect. It’s all about answering the questions in a way that liberal professors are assured they’ve thoroughly indoctrinated you.
This makes me think about what it must be like to be an Islamic Fundamentalist. Allah is always on the side of righteousness and goodness, and yet the West is continually kicking Islam’s ass. The cognitive dissonance must be mind numbing...
“Progressive” is just another term for someone whose head is stuck so far up his rear he can bite his own kidneys.
