Well, I’d like to think that most of us would be mortified if someone said that about Sheila Jackson-Lee, Hillary Clinton or Rachel Maddow.
We don’t want to become them.
When Sarah Palin was talking about slavery, she was talking about Proverbs 22:7. Liberals don’t understand that.
Definitely not a conservative. In “foolishly” comparing public debt to slavery? In liberal land, a white person can only mention slavery when wearing sackcloth and ashes, and publicly flagellating themselves with thorns, all the while exclaiming how bad and evil they are.
I’m not sure whether he sees Bashir’s loss as a bad thing because of what Bashir said, or whether he’s glad that conservatives no longer have a talking point because he’s gone.
With Hillary’s ascension the left realizes they need to distance themselves from their deplorable misogynistic rhetoric about Sarah Palin in order to position themselves as guardians of all things female. They will sacrifice many of their own in order to carry that faux-chivalric mantle.
My take...They falsely equate their success with race specific voting blocks with gender.
The Left has now decided that the S-word can only be used in one context: black-American slavery. No other use of the word is allowed - unless, of course, a lib tries it. Metaphors are verboten.
Liberals are opposed to individual liberty as defined in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. The only real issue they have with chattel slavery in America two hundred years ago is that the slaves were privately owned.
They are all orgasmic over the idea of slavery to the state.
Democrats never pass up on opportunity to tell us why enslavement by the state is for our own protection and our own safety, because life under the anarchy that conservatives want to impose is just too risky and dangerous. We can't have any of that inhumane"on-your-own economics" that conservatives advocate.
Thereby proving that you no longer have to be black to be an Uncle Tom.
It’s hard to imagine ANYBODY who’s not Bill Maher bat-poo crazy actually DEFENDING what Bashir said.
Never fear this bunch has an endless supply of nasty bastards to draw on!!!
The left has a significant number of candidates for anger management classes and sensitivity training. Martin Bashir is a prime example.
Nothing foolish at all about the comparison. It is entirely appropriate to the US national debt situation. And the term debt slavery has been around forever. It's just that the usual suspect leftist race hustlers and PC enforcers, for their own narrow purposes, want to ban another very apt term.
Sarah is right about the “Death Panels” and she’s right about public debt is slavery. When a child is born owing huge amounts of money to the government that is slavery.
He actually thinks Conservatives have suffered a loss in the firing of Bashir. We have lost a useful "talking point", as if this is all just a political game and the words used are simply tools in that game. Well, there are always more "talking points" where Bashir's comments came from. And it is not just MSNBC. While acknowledging the inappropriate garbage that spewed from Bashir’s mouth the writer still comes off as a pompous jerk who minimizes what conservatives experience constantly from the MSM.
Bashir will be back.
The leftist communists truly believe that it doesn’t matter how a speaker uses a word,,it’s only meaning is that which the lefties assign to it and nothing else. IN other words, leftists are very comfortable telling you what you mean.
If a Fox commentator said the same thing about a woman, he’d be extremely lucky to make it to the end of the day. And the left would still fuss about it.
This writer doesn’t understand tax slavery since he moves among the elite who have no such problems. Sort of like when, after Nixon’s 1972 landslide victory, film critic Pauline Kael famously said, “I can’t believe Nixon won. I don’t know anyone who voted for him.”
