Yes. He may have tilted left, but I’ll make an acception. He was a major talent.

“The Birdcage” was on cable when I was a kid and my brothers and I were watching it and my dad came in and saw Robin Williams swishing around and immediately turned off the tv. LOL.

Dad knows what’s what! :)

There are a select few leftists whose work I can appreciate, Mike Nichols is one of them. Don Henley’s another. Robert DeNiro - are you gonna say he’s a crap actor because he’s a RAT? Same with Jack Nicholson.

If the HoJo/Old Country crowds read this, they’re saying: “ANOTHER F*****G YANKEE RINO!!!” Yep, that’s me.

This is a pretty good article by Daniel Greenfield. What he neglects to mention, though, is that white Democrats have been vanishing for about 50 years, though the trend is accelerating in the Age of Obama, fueled by the rhetoric of racial divisiveness. Fifty years ago, in 1964, Lyndon Johnson became the last Democratic presidential candidate to capture the majority of the white vote nationally! Since then (please correct me if I'm wrong on this), no Dem presidential candidate has even won a plurality of the white vote.

The 17th Amendment killed states rights. The 19th killed sane electoral politics.

thinking white

Many white seniors living off pensions won by their unions think it is 1950 and that Harry Truman is still President. I'll take you to towns in Ohio where these geezers are the only ones who still have money in their pockets because their unions killed the town's industries. They will vote Democrat until they die, their widows will vote Democrat until they die, and their sketchily employed descendants will vote Democrat because they think that without government programs to support their lifestyles, they will die.

And here I thought I was the only American who knew that Barry raised about $2 Million for Odinga (his cousin, he says) and stumped for him in Kenya, accompanied by .... are you ready? .....The Dick Morris.,.. bankrolled by the Clintons on a Soros pass-through? Did you also know that after Odinga lost, thousands of Christians were massacred? That Odinga's platform was "Sharia Law, Autonomous Muslim Provinces, expulsion of missionaries, expulsion of Christians from government, expropriation of Christian-owned farmland?" Did you know it is against federal law for a member of Congress, a Senator, as Barry then was, to meddle in foreign elections?

Did you know that the Christian-killer Odinga was an honored guest at the Inauguration? That's because after Odinga lost and began a civil war, Obama campaigned in the UN and with the DoS to have him put in a power-sharing arrangement as Prime Minister, while the SOB was killing Christians and by driving Christian farmers from their lands causing a famine in Kenya.

This all happened in 2006. Do you think Juan McAnus' Campaign acted on the info? Or GW? This Obama, my fellow Americans, is your POTUS today. This story was never covered in the American MSM.

To: Liz; All
Presstitute Cokie Roberts was quoted elsewhere as saying (words to that effect): "Obama better scurry to grab the illegal vote....b/c Democrats aren't getting anymore white votes for a long time."

Is Cokie Roberts still a regular with Stephanopoulos and George Will on that ABC Sunday morning show? (Haven't watched that in a long time.)

As far as Cokie is concerned, I'm sure she considers herself white and still votes 'Rat, the party of her late father congressman and the MSM. So how does she reconcile her being both white and a 'Rat with her statement that seems to indicate that 'Rats are poison to the whites? (Of course, hypocrisy and duplicity on the left is to be taken as a given.)

That’s correct.

According to exit polls, Clinton lost the White vote 41%-39% in 1992 and 46%-44% in 1996. Carter lost it 52%-48%

And Obama lost it both times of course, 55%-43% in 2008, 59%-39%! in 2012.
