How dare the voters pick a candidate?
americanthinker ^ | September 21, 2015 | James Lewis

Posted on 09/21/2015 8:49:49 AM PDT by MarvinStinson

The "conservative" punditocracy is ablaze with outrage that the voters might actually pick a candidate – in this case, Donald Trump.

The scribbler class is openly trying to knock off the most popular candidate – in much the way they sneered at Reagan (just an old B-movie actor), and, for that matter, at Lincoln (a backwoods hick). Reagan and Lincoln lacked "nuance," "gravitas," and fashionable radicalism.

Conservative pundits have made up their minds – and the most popular candidate is taking friendly fire. But regular people aren't going along. That annoys the elites something awful.

Apparently our gurus have trouble tolerating the angst of not being in control. They don't think ordinary conservatives can pick winners who can govern.

Meanwhile Obama consists of nothing but radical chic. How does it feel to have your country overturned by a trendy leftist ideologue, elected primarily for his cool factor?

How do you think the Russians and Saudis feel about our hero, now that he's sabotaged every single ally and boosted every America-hating tin-pot tyrant in the world?

Our generation is easily scared by the race-baiting media. A century of degenerating public education has dumbed down the average American to unprecedented levels of political ignorance.

But now we are seeing the most dangerous times since Jozef Stalin got the Bomb. Our allies are under murderous pressure around the world – by far the worst example of that being Obama's historic capitulation to the thug regime of Tehran.

We now know that our "historic" president came into office ready to surrender to the mullahs. Co-President Val Jarrett started back-channel talks with them right at the beginning – probably even before they got elected.

There is no excuse for ignorance about the biggest danger of our times

Too numerous to list. It would be easier to list those on the side of the citizens than list those who work for The Cheap Labor Express.

I never before realized how thoroughly op ed writers like Krauthammer were only stooges dancing for their hidden masters.

But hidden no more.

As of now, they are Destroyed.

No one could take anything they write seriously again after their exposure over Trump.

Obama is nothing but radical chic w/ a Nobel Peace Prize....
an arrogant trendy leftist, elected primarily for his cool factor.

Dems are still giving thanks over at "The Church Of Whatever Works For Me" that Romney was so stupid and easily duped.....looking like a kid used to having his lunch money taken by the schoolyard bully.

Ohaha bragged he was s-o-o-o popular, he was being showered with campaign contributions from avid supporters----and had "the first billion dollar campaign in US history."

Did Romney issue a statement asking the FEC where all the Ohaha reports
were----as required by law----WRT where Ohaha spent all that money?

Did Romney ever publicly inquire of "billion-dollar
Obama" on O's need to borrow money for his campaign?

UPSHOT--OBAMA INTO ETERNITY ON OUR DIME When Obama steps outside the WH and sees his shadow Americans get to finance an eternity of his progressive stupidity.

Thanks for the ping. It remains to be seen whether the combination of RATs and PUBs and media can get rid of Donald Trump.

Unless Trump gets support so overwhelming that he goes into the convention with three quarters of the regular delegates locked up Bush will be ordained at the convention. That’s why I pray that the rest of the candidates, save Cruz, drop out before South Carolina. Bush can “win” the nomination with any percentage at all just so long as he takes majorities in 8 state primaries in those states that normally vote Democrat in the election. The rest is up to the RNC’s “super delegates” at the convention. Trump will have to do better than Reagan did in 1980 because the convention rules have been changed by RNC to make it at least very difficult for someone other than the gope Selection to “win.” The gopes don’t want any repeat of 1980, either in the Nomination or the Election.

“George Will, Krauthammer, Fox news, Rove, and who else?”

Jonah Goldberg, Spit Hume, Ron Fournier, all in pre-psychotic breakdown. LOL!

But all guys you named have presented themselves as ardent “conservatives.”

They have made a good living at it.

I especially love watching Brit Hume’s head spin around. I am hopeful I will get to watch the top of his head blow off. :-)

Rush keeps making the mistake of referring to this bunch as the “conservative media” they are in no way conservative. They would be more appropriately called the “Republican media.”

Bears repeating from the article:

In the meantime, former Pacific Fleet Commander Adm. James Lyons is telling us, “The Obama administration has a strategy. It is very simple. Any thinking American should be able to grasp it. It’s anti-American, anti-Western, it’s pro-Islamic, pro-Iranian, and pro-Muslim Brotherhood.”

Nails it. . So now they're setting up Jeb so Hillary (or Biden) can continue eight more years of Obama. . completely against the will of the majority of the American people.

We’ve seen what happens when we let the MSM pick candidates. The Repub is the biggest lame-o RINO a la John McCain and Hitlery is the front-runner until she gets kicked over the side for a bigger communist that is marketed well and wins.
