The Democrats redefine the phrase “court-packing” to meet their needs

The New Neo Posted on October 12, 2020 by neoOctober 12, 2020

Of course they do – because they believe (correctly IMHO) that they can get away with it. They do it in unison, even though it’s a preposterous notion to use the phrase in this novel way – to mean appointing … Continue reading →

WalkAway videos and changing minds: the interpersonal and the intrapersonal

The New Neo Posted on October 12, 2020 by neoOctober 12, 2020

Commenter “huxley” writes: What conservatives miss in this question of why do Democrats accept lies and ignore the debunkings is that Democrats realize, likely unconsciously, that their place in the circle is being jeopardized. It’s a tiny threat to their … Continue reading →

COVID as Katrina: fear and blame is useful to the left

The New Neo Posted on October 7, 2020 by neoOctober 7, 2020

I went to the hospital today for an upper abdominal sonogram. They’re trying to decide whether my weary old gallbladder will be allowed to stay with me for the duration of the journey, or if it needs to disembark at … Continue reading →

Matt Taibbi on the news business and how it drives division

The New Neo Posted on October 6, 2020 by neoOctober 6, 2020

Here’s a video of a very interesting talk by Matt Taibbi on the way that money drives news decisions that help polarize America further. I think it’s worth listening to, although I think he leaves out a lot, as well. … Continue reading →

The source of Democrat/leftist rage is the demand for power

The New Neo Posted on September 23, 2020 by neoSeptember 23, 2020

Yes, they hate Trump. But it’s hardly just that. It’s that the left thinks it is entitled to run things and that any impediment to that goal is illegitimate. And after all, if they look at American history, there really … Continue reading →

The Ruth Bader Ginsburg hagiography: “Grant her dying wish!”

The New Neo Posted on September 23, 2020 by neoSeptember 23, 2020

Almost undoubtedly you’ve seen the Democrats’ arguments that Republicans should desist from approving a new SCOTUS justice to replace Ruth Bader Ginsburg because it was her dying wish that they refrain. It’s a bizarre thing for Democrats to say, but … Continue reading →

Susan Collins has decided what hill she’s going to die on…

The New Neo Posted on September 22, 2020 by neoSeptember 23, 2020

…and it’s the hill of betraying the right. I suppose she thinks this might get her re-elected. I doubt it. I think it seals her fate with Republicans in Maine, whom she needs in order to win. I could be … Continue reading →

The Supreme Court system is broken

The New Neo Posted on September 21, 2020 by neoSeptember 21, 2020

I’ve thought for a long time that the Supreme Court is far too supreme. The “living constitution” doctrine of the left has been used not just to update and apply constitutional principles to modern times but to lay down law … Continue reading →

Romney, Murkowski, and Collins: what about those RINOs in 2020?

The New Neo Posted on September 19, 2020 by neoSeptember 19, 2020

Commenter “Newmanian” writes: Senators Murkowski, Collins, and Romney have imposed their low-mid level Conservatism on the party for years. It used to be their party. It has not been that Country Club party for years now. Republicans may lose the … Continue reading →

Trump tackles the anti-American anti-history anti-truth indoctrination in our schools

The New Neo Posted on September 18, 2020 by neoSeptember 18, 2020

Well, well, well. Yesterday Trump made quite an announcement: On Thursday, President Donald Trump announced that he would sign an executive order to launch a “1776 Commission” for American patriotism in education, countering the Marxist critical race theory of The … Continue reading →

What we’re up against in today’s woke activism

The New Neo Posted on September 17, 2020 by neoSeptember 18, 2020

This is long, and I don’t usually watch long videos. Nor have I completely finished watching this one – not yet. But I’ve watched (or listened to; you can do the latter while doing some other task that doesn’t require … Continue reading →

US Democrats are not European-style socialists. They are worse.

The New Neo Posted on September 17, 2020 by neoSeptember 17, 2020

If I had to describe the single most disturbing thing about today’s Democratic Party, I’d be hard-pressed because the number of possible choices is so large. But it probably would be this phenomenon, well-described yesterday by commenter “Lorenz Gude”: And … Continue reading →
