These are political disputes, just like Hussein smashing Hillary or Palmer. They mean nothing when war unites them.

“The Demoncrat party, of demons, have had this kind of unity since 1850, even before the US Civil War happened.”

False. Three examples off the top of my head:

1860 – Lincoln is elected as the first Republican President in part due to the Democrats splitting into Northern and Southern factions on the eve of the Civil War (Douglas and Breckenridge). Republicans hold the presidency for all but 16 of the next 72 years.

1948 – Not one but two major Democrat candidates run in the general election to oppose the party’s nominee President Truman – Henry Wallace and Strom Thurmond. Truman manages to win in spite of this.

1968 – A violent and divisive Democrat convention, with bloody riots in the streets and seated delegates shouting down convention speakers, leaves a bad taste that contributes to Republican wins in 5 of the next 6 Presidential elections.

agree; but there is also the problem of social pressure.

The left can make you feel like racist for not supporting their policies… or like tea party or religious right are really nuts and extreme… so you want to distance from them…

so its easy to divide up republicans, conservatives, and libertarians. They buy some of these messages even though they’re sent from their adversaries.

The dems on other hand; they won’t talk or think about any possible negative messages about their side. Fox news isn’t real news man.

The MFM existed in the Deep South circa 19th century?

How do they gain that much obedience from their serfs and slaves? Well, you just have to look at how holds the reigns of power in their society.

Is the left really more “disciplined”? Or is it that their quarrels are not highlighted and mocked by the MFM the way those on the right are? The MFM is still my silver bullet.

I got all of our money for my siblings. Zero cost to them.

They’ll sell you out as soon as their God Emperor Hussein orders them to, zero cost for them.

Why was Jim Jones better at disciplining his children and followers than some absent at home father? Shrugs, same issue.

Beth, 11:21 pm — “[T]he Left has been taken over by their ideological pole. Meaning the are totaltarians and that is evil.”

. . . and as usual, they project. They swear that the Republican side is in the pocket of the rightest of the right, that they (Republicans) dance to the right’s tune, and that they (Republicans) do whatever the right tells them to do. We here (speaking for most of us, anyway) know better. A lot better.

Can’t help but observe that over on the Democrat/Socialist side, they know full well how the extreme left is calling the major shots, and they naturally figure it’s what’s happening, mirror-image, on the Republican side. They really do believe it — while at the same time, denying vociferously that they’re not leftist/socialist, just ordinary mom-‘n’-apple-pie Americans innocently trying to lend a helping hand.

Ri-i-i-i-i-ight.

Mike, I can’t agree with you more on your original points, the Left has been taken over by their ideological pole. Meaning the are totaltarians and that is evil.
