Can you RWs finally drop all these PRATT canards about the Dems?

[Kirkrapine]

Obama, for instance. You spent eight years repeatedly insisting he was a crypto-Communist with a hidden agenda (the more rabid of you insisted he was simultaneously a Moslem plotting to bring Shari'a law to America). (That is what Rubio apparently meant when he repeatedly said in that primary debate that Obama "knows exactly what he's doing.") And in hindsight it is crystal clear he never had any such thing in mind at all. His most radical accomplishment, or even effort, was the ACA -- a health-care plan the Republicans came up with in the first place -- and look at how quickly he caved on the "public option."

Or Hillary. Ever since she was FLOTUS there has been a cottage industry devoted entirely to irrational hatred and slander of her, including insane CTs, and it has never at any time made any sense at all. Two Congressional investigations led by Pubs failed completely to pin anything connected with Benghazi on her, and that business with her emails was always an irrelevant nothingburger manufactroversy -- and certainly something you have no business even mentioning so long as you support a president who uses an unsecured cell phone and whose WH has leaked like a sieve from day one.

And calling the Democratic Party as a whole "socialist" -- if only! Ever since Clinton the pro-corporate DLC wing has predominated -- if not, Sanders would have been the nominee in 2016.

And all this about Dem immigration policy being an agenda to increase the number of Dem voters -- what bullshit! Noncitizens can't vote, and you all know that "voter fraud" is almost nonexistent, and has never been found to exist on such a scale as to change the outcome of any election.

See PRATT.

Of course Dems, for their part, sometimes say the most radical and preposterous things about the Pubs -- but in most cases those actually turn out to be grounded in fact, especially under this Admin.

 

[Kirkrapine]

Really, it's all even sillier than 19th-Century Pubs calling the Dems the party of "rum, Romanism and rebellion."

 

[Kirkrapine]

And here's another: Stop conflating the Democratic Party as it was before the 1960s with the party as it is now. Yes, the old DP was the party of racist Dixiecrats, Klansmen, etc., but they all migrated over to the GOP decades ago, entirely because the Dems decided to get behind civil-rights legislation, and the Liberal Republicans migrated over to the Dems for the same reason (and because the RW Pubs drove them out of the party).

And while you're at it, drop all that egregious bullshit about the Dem "plantation." As you know perfectly well, AAs are not brainwashed or duped, but vote Dem for entirely rational reasons, i.e., because they know Dems will treat them better than Pubs, largely for the reasons stated above.

This one especially, since it's popping up on the board today.

FFS, it's bad enough that you respond to every post on the board, but now you're responding to your own posts?

Indeed.

Good observation.

Don't bitch; engage.

 

[Kirkrapine]

And here's another one.

 

[Kirkrapine]

And for that matter, drop "Democrat Party."

 

[Kirkrapine]

And there's strawmanning like this.
