"Red" States, "Blue" States....Why.

I'm certain I'm not the only one who notices that your inability to combat my thesis, the points that I've made and documented, leaves you with no recourse but the usual
fallback for empty suits....

....ad hominem, attack the messenger.

But I understand: you work with the material you have.



I'd be lyin' if I said I felt sorry for ya'.

If our academic standards have declined, I think it proves the liberal model is an abject failure then. I guess only the blind won't see this little statement for the damning praise it really is.

I have to agree

Whichever Liberal professor saw fit to pass PC should have his/her certification revoked. It is a shame what passes for college educated these days

Maybe she was attractive in her younger days.

Fucking christ chic, you were the kid who ate paste in school huh? You should have your internets removed for abusing usage.

Clarification please....

...are you afraid to make an actual point, that you might have to defend,

....or...simply incapable of same?

Which is it?

Do you believe that "I hate you, I hate you" is the same as bringing something to the table?

Ooook here let me be clear. Your thread is stupid,your conspiracies are retarded,and basically your threads are all the same. Loose fatcs with massive amounts of speculation treated as fact.you are a troll.

Another GREAT OP from Political Chic.

Remember, the object here is to lessen the position that you are opposed to. Lawyers do the same thing in court. When defending someone in court, what you do is to attack the victim. If you can make the victim look bad then the attention is deflected from the real issue. For example, if a woman is raped it is not that the man forced himself on her, it is the fact that she is promiscuous or was dressed in such a manner that he was coerced into it. The left-wing does the same thing.

Since the mainstream media has since shed all attempts to show itself as a unbiased outlet, I contend that the use of the red-blue to denote Republican and Democratic was a concious attempt to subliminally attach a negative connotation to Republicans on the part of network news organizations. Organizations that are admitedly far more liberal than even most of the country. For example, Barry's campaign slogan of FORWARD. Barry's supporters couldn't get to Wikipedia fast enough to remove ties to socialism.

Baby boomers all grew up during the "red scare" or fearing the "red menace". To show those states that are committed to the Republican candidate as RED evokes memories of those days. Cheap. But lets remember who we're dealing with. This is a group who despite the fact that Barry sit in a church for 20 years listening to BLACK LIBERATION THEOLOGY (this is a weird theology in anyones book) and gave him a pass, they consistently have derided Romney for his Mormon religion. The outrage of evangelical Christians did not manifest in having a Mormon nominated and although they would like to have a Jennifer Flowers in Romney's past, because he is Mormon, they know there won't be.

OUTSTANDING Chic...

P.S. to PoliticalChic - You actually told TruthMatters to read the Federalist papers????? Really???? Read something????? TruthMatters????? What in God's name were you thinking...

No...really....you don't see that you've simply....and I realize that the word 'simple' is stinging to you....produced another vapid, jejune post???

Really?


See...government schooling will do that.
Here: pick a specific point and explain why it is in error.

Not "Your thread is stupid,your conspiracies are retarded,and basically your threads are all the same."


BTW....'Specific' means limited to one particular thing, exact, detailed.

Not general.

 

[PoliticalChic]

because the person who picked the colors thought all people were not good jsut like you op

So, you believe that people are all good?

Perhaps, had you studied history...specifically United States history...you might have been disabused of your mistaken belief.

But...if it is not too late, pick up a copy of the Federalist Papers, glance over #51, in which it is assumed that human nature needs to be kept in check.


The Constitution commemorates our revolution, and, as Madison states in the ‘Federalist,’ is the greatest of all reflections on human nature…human beings are not angels.”

' If men were angels, no government would be necessary.'

Humans are not perfect, nor perfectible, but are capable of self government. The republican form of government presupposes this idea of humans. Our government is not a controlling government, but must itself be controlled: by the Constitution.



You're welcome.

Most humans are mostly good, some are saintlike and some are complete rat bastards.

why do you think they are all NOT GOOD?

maybe its a reflextion of who YOU are.

You look in your own soul and think all others are like you.

"You look in your own soul and think all others are like you."

Hey...are you reading Ann Coulter, too???

She said this:

"Republicans waste more time being afraid of Democrats than they do robbing orphan, evicting widows, helping corporations- you know, what we’re paying them to do."

 

[Big Fitz]

Those who say people are basically good doesn't get out much or work with children.

Ethics and morality must be taught. It's not instinctual.

 

[Old Rocks]

I contend that the assignment of the words "Red" and "Blue" to Republicans and Democrats is by no means accidental.

Instead, it is associated with the 'brain-washing' that has made the Left so successful with the less introspective...
...certainly it is not because their ideas are better.

And without control of the Main Stream Media...it would not have been possible.

1. "The choice of colors in this divide is counter-intuitive to many international observers, as throughout the world, red is commonly the designated color for parties representing labor, socialist, and/or liberal interests [5] [6], which in the United States would be more closely correlated with the Democratic Party. Similarly, blue is used in these countries to depict conservative parties which in the case of the United States would be a color more suitable for the Republicans. For example, in Canada party colors are deeply ingrained and historic and have been unchanged during the Twentieth Century. Red states and blue states - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


2. "It's beginning to look like a suburban swimming pool,'' the television anchor David Brinkley noted on election night 1980, as hundreds of Republican-blue light bulbs illuminated NBC's studio map, signaling a landslide victory for Ronald Regan over the Democratic incumbent Jimmy Carter.

4. "The former system made more sense and was deliberately changed by media partisans who didn’t like to suggest Democrats should be associated with the color red....What’s a little more surprising, however, is how easily Republicans fell in line, apparently without realizing the reason they went from blue to red overnight. There’s even a Republican-leaning opinion site called RedState.com. How shortsighted and gullible can you get?

That made even more sense because Reagan’s convictions were decidedly and unabashedly anti-red.

There were deviations at some other networks, but the standard remained Democrat-red and Republican-blue for three more presidential elections. It was understandable. There was little confusion about it. It all made sense.

Democrats were at least soft on communism and socialism in the post JFK-LBJ world. Republicans tended to be anti-communist. It was all perfectly understandable, accurate and had both historical precedent to support it as well as contemporary parallels in other countries.

Some Democrats, perhaps those not belonging openly to the Progressive Caucus, might be a little self-conscious about being red. Republicans are not. But the fact remains that today’s Democrats are pushing a political agenda that is traditionally, historically and practically red all over.

I propose to you it’s time we – real Americans, the rest of us – stopped being manipulated like this."

You would LIKE the reasoning to be comical, once again attempting to deflect from the truth or lessen the messenger rather than deal with the message. Why has every single conservative media organization happily adopted the designations? Fox News (whom I believe you are referring to) went on the air in 1996, using anchors and people from OTHER NETWORKS. Even Bill O'Reilly was a veteran of CBS. The use of the red/blue designation was already well established. Even when you start something new, you do what you are used to doing.

And I hate to tell you this: Despite the attempts of the left to pin a negative connotation, most conservatives could really not care less. Oklahoma is the REDDEST state in the union. We just had our primaries. A Republican congressman, John Sullivan (who voted for Barry's stimulus and who talked of "compromise") was defeated by a Navy combat pilot promising to oppose Barry and his agenda at every turn. A major factor in the defeat: The "dead" Oklahoma Tea Parties.

When the left actually debate and discuss issues instead of deflecting, perhaps something might get done??

Naw, that will happen right after that pig flies out my butt...

I can't decide whether wingy is oblivious to the nature of the main stream media as mere amanuenses, or his post is as dishonest as the title of his avi....

...no, he can't have missed that folks like Matthews and Stephanopoulos and others moved from employment by the Democrats to paid shills....

I have already agreed with you PC. It is an obviously diabolical scheme by the Lamestream media to convince Americans that Republicans are Commies. I'm surprised that Palin or Bachmann have not picked up on it

But then again, they are not of your intellectual calibre

The title to your post: The Truth Disguised As "Humor"


But, if I may refine it, and bring it closer to the truth....

....It is an obviously diabolical scheme by the Lamestream media to convince Americans that Democrats aren't first cousins to Commies.

The flag of NAZI Germany was mostly Red. Maybe they are tying the fact that Republicans are like a bunch of goosestepping Nazis by tying them to the color Red.
