Can you explain that? I hadn’t heard it. I thought he added something to The Five, back when I was watching Fox prior to Megyn making it all about her hoo-haw.
I believe there are quite a few libs who really believe that government is a force for good, not bad. I’m related to some of those people, and when you give them all of the incalculable instances of where government is exactly what Madison feared it would be, they look at you and reply, “It is what we make of it, and it can be better.”
I believe it is the reptilian variant of the liberal establishment that turns these folks into useful idiots.
As have been discussed on this forum often, the GOP is guilty of doing just that to most of us.
We have more in common with these folks that believe America is the greatest thing to happen to governing people since Jesus came to Earth. I know many conservatives that believe that strict constructionism and true federalism was transformational and put is in the driver’s seat world wide. I believe that too.
For the first time my lifelong liberal family members are voting Trump if they get the chance. I think they finally get it.
As for Beckel, he said he was sorry. As a Christian, that sort of humility is the stuff you need to change. In change, I mean everything.
I’d cut the guy some slack. I don’t agree that government is a force for good. I think when government’s interests are temporarily aligned with the people they rule over, it can appear that they care about you.
They don’t, and they never will. It’s the nature of power over other human beings and what it does to you.
My bad. I was referring to Kaslin’s comment that Fox should fire Geraldo, to which I agreed.
