The Liberal Lie So Big It May One Day Split the Country
Townhall ^ | May 13, 2017 | John Hawkins

Posted on 05/21/2017 7:03:08 PM PDT by Monorprise

“Civilization has been aptly called a ‘thin crust over a volcano.’ (Liberals) are constantly picking at that crust.” -- Thomas Sowell

After Hollywood jackass Jimmy Kimmel was criticized for exploiting his son’s illness to push his political agenda and incorrectly insinuating that surgeries for newborns weren’t covered before Obamacare, he did a follow-up on the subject where he said, “I would like to apologize for saying that children in America should have health care. It was insensitive, it was offensive, and I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me.”

Drop dead, Jimmy Kimmel, you colossal ass.

This is a great example of what may be the most annoying, dishonest thing that liberals habitually do.

Jimmy Kimmel favors a certain political policy. It’s one that has been a disaster for tens of millions of Americans, including a lot of children.

Jimmy Kimmel could have said, “Obamacare may not be perfect and it may have been sold with a lot of lies, but I believe it’s worth it for everyone else to pay more so the small percentage of the population with pre-existing conditions and no insurance can be covered.” That pitch may not be a political winner, but at least it would be an honest argument.

Instead, Kimmel is essentially arguing that ONLY people who agree with him care about the healthcare of children and the rest of us want children to die.

They state that they cannot coexist with us unless we submit.

Hmmmm.....who does that sound like? Same boss, same rhetoric.

Does anyone on the forum watch the show?

No idea what it is...

Last time I watched an alphabet network was the 2015 NFL football season, pre-kapersniffer whatever.

The Antifa BS will stop the moment George Soros is stripped of his illegally obtained assets and his sorry ass thrown in a cell.

Arthur Schlesinger Jr wrote a terrific book,in 1991, on the divisions in our society——and the dangers that they bring.

“The Disuniting of America”——— 26 years ago-—he should see it now.

With their graphic, “Real Americans Kill Nazis”, does that mean they are about to stage a massive suicide?

I hope the police, FBI, etc., are watching this closely. The Antifa fascists are becoming bolder and more violent. The echoes of 1936 Germany are becoming louder.

We’ve certainly gotten away from the shared experience.

I think this will be very different. I don’t think Americans are going to need to do what the Russians or the French did.

Our government set up “safety nets” in the 1930s to prevent exactly that from happening; both revolutions I mentioned started with hungry people, while our poorest have obesity and diabetes epidemics.

The same dynamics are at work, and our frustrated working people voted for Trump to show their desperation.

great quote

“If you believe someone doesn’t want kids to have healthcare, hates gays, hates women, hates minorities and wants more rapes to happen, you will probably detest that person. However, liberals seldom consider that the reverse of this is also true. You will also probably detest people who falsely accuse you of not wanting kids to have healthcare, hating gays, hating women, hating minorities and wanting more rapes to happen. In the Palestinian territories or Syria, there might be significant numbers of people who believe many of those aforementioned beliefs. In America, there are very few. What this means is that there are large numbers of people liberals have inspired hatred towards via falsehoods and also large numbers of people who’ve grown to abhor liberals after being targeted by their lies.”

When the Man Show was on I thought Adam Carrola was the loonie leftist and Jimmy Kimmel was the sane one. Turns out I was 180 degrees off the mark.

Look up the eligible voter turnout %s for the last 100 years for presidential elections, off year congressional elections, and state and local elections.

The single biggest tribe might be those that just don’t care about any political philosophy enough to deign to vote about it one way or the other. The point being that before there is some sort of armed conflict or sustained civil unrest I would think that more would first exercise their political options.

"When the Man Show was on I thought Adam Carrola was the loonie leftist and Jimmy Kimmel was the sane one. Turns out I was 180 degrees off the mark."

Someone here at FR noted that once.

Adam Carolla is a conservative's conservative.

And he's an avowed atheist.

He has absolutely no use for liberal BS.

Read his books. That man has paid his working class roots dues, and then some.

Jimmy Kimmel has "gone native" in Hollywood, and is a liberal a-hole.

So badly, that Kimmel would probably disavow his Man Show background, because it doesn't "fit" his new found home.

I could see him actually criticize his OWN work, because it is definitely non-PC.

Saul Alinsky: ““The despair is there; now it’s up to us to go in and rub raw the sores of discontent, galvanize them for radical social change” - which for Alinsky and his ilk means “people power” - not democracy according to laws as established in the Constitution but some childish amorphous fantasy “participation” where everyone gets his own way in running the world - a dangerous man and a conflict-centered, totalitarian, power-lust philosophy of non-government.....

“The Liberal Lie” is perpetuated by no less than 4 major, media corporations: Disney, Comcast, Time Warner, and CBS.

The problem could end tomorrow through peaceful economic means. But that won’t happen primarily because we don’t fight as a team.
