Great article that you didn't read!

From the lower third:
The Republican Party we know is a product of the modern conservative movement, and that movement is a series of insurgencies against the established order. Several of its intellectual founders—Whittaker Chambers and James Burnham, among others—were shaped early on by Communist ideology and practice, and their Manichean thinking, their conviction that the salvation of Western civilization depended on the devoted work of a small group of illuminati, marked the movement at its birth.

All credibility lost.

The Dems are by definition Socialists, which is a breath away from Communism.

How better to label your opposition exactly what you are? This author is doing what all progressive authors do. They turn their own beliefs on to the opposition. It's a goto Alinsky move.


Great article for blathering fools.

^^^ Exactly. Republicans are ready to destroy democracy for the sake of gaining power. How else can it be justified that over half the votes for the Wisconsin house (54%) were Democratic, but resulted in only 36 of 99 seats? Clearly, Republicans must cheat, and don't mind doing it, to win. So yes, party over country.

The sooner that they are gone the sooner that this nation can recover. They are pure poison for the social and political integrity of this nation.

Their literal position is "conservatism is good only as long as it only benefits Jewish ethno-nationalism".

As soon as Jewish ethno-nationalism wasn't American conservatism's primary darling, people like Jeffrey Goldberg (The Atlantic chief editor) and David Frum, who were prior nominal conservatives (actual Neocons) start writing progressive / conservative-hating articles.

Other Neocon to progressive switches that occurred once American "conservatism" stopped felating Jewish ethno-nationalism and only Jewish ethno-nationalism:

Max Boot
Bill Kristol
Jennifer Rubin
Jonah Goldberg
John Podhoretz
David Brooks

etc, etc.

Jeffrey Goldberg thinks so little of your intelligence, that in accepting his position of chief at The Atlantic he penned a disingenuous progressive-themed article skewering Benjamin Netenyahu.

This is a man who was was a staunch Neocon when conservatism was only focused on Jewish ethnic welfare, served in he Israel Defense Force instead of the US military, and is a dedicated Zionist.

He thinks so little of you that he believes that you will believe any lip service to any political position.

He will switch positions as long as the switch serves propaganda that he perceives is good for the Jews. Which at this point is anything that harms the American Right.

LGBT rights? Absolutely not! As long as he can front as a "conservative" for "American Conservatism" that takes care of Jews. What's that you say? One of the two major political parties doesn't prioritize Jews over its base? Switch to being a hyper-progressive in favor of LGBT rights, White privilege agitprop, and anything else he can use to attack that party that dares to actually consider the majority of its constituency first.

These people are toxic poison. You can believe their false articles that are designed to agitate and take them into your political home, but they will also eventually have you for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. You don't have to agree with the Right, but learn our lessons. Smarter people would help us eject them from the political stage altogether rather than to buy what they are selling.

After that, and after their constant political and social agitation is absent in this nation, I predict that a way forward in this nation will be surprisingly clear to the rest of us whereas it was before foggy in the midst of their participation.

This was pretty bad. Generally you can point to the (D)'s also but in this case.....it's a new low in being a poor loser.

It would be nice when these articles of 2000+ words have a TL;DR-type summary. Sure, it helps to read an article. However, even after reading sad article, there are times where a reader might not understand the gist of what it is being said.
