Monte1076 Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 I'll be watching tonight. It's basically only an hour, on domestic policy. And we really need to get control of who contributes to these candidates. Neither Cruz nor O'Rourke should be taking money from interests outside the state. They are vying to be a Texas Senator, representing Texas. They should not be allowed (via PAC or otherwise) to accept money (or anything "in kind") from outside the state. Neither should anyone running for Congress. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please. Although the Nazi Socialist might not have owned all the factories, the owners made what the Nazi Socialist government told them to make, and directed distribution. Actually the changes in the Democratic Party mirror the evolution of Nazis, although I suspect the puppet masters behind the Dem transition have Karl Marx as their guiding light. Jmo You also left out the Democrats love for eugenics with their love of abortion. Obviously whoever put up the article doesn't realize it describes the Left to a T, and not what any true Conservative desires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. P Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 Is Ted Cruz surging or has the Media been gaslighting us about the appeal of Beta O’Rourke? Quote No single article or tweet could do justice to the brain-destroying tedium of hyperbole, the willful exaggeration, the gushing faddishness, the hipster capitalist complacency, the novelty songwriting contest banality, the experimental filmmaker commercial-directing pseudo-profundity, the sheer late-night TV-level humorlessness of the Beto cult. In a recent column Dana Milbank promised to reveal the ingredients behind “the special sauce that flavors Betomania.” Here they are: “O’Rourke’s cool factor: skateboarding at Whataburger, playing the air drums, doing his laundry on Facebook Live, and scoring appearances with Ellen DeGeneres and Stephen Colbert …” Fifty thousand people attended a — free — Willie Nelson concert at which he appeared. “His partisan jabs are delicate.” He sometimes says “pendejo.” . . . The Beta O’Rourke fantasy is media gaslighting of the same type we experienced with Wendy Davis. There was a candidate that the liberal media, both in Texas and nationally, fell in love with. Inordinate coverage was given to an obviously incompetent and flailing candidate. A horse race narrative was developed that energized the credulous to send their money to that candidate. And the utterly predictable a s s-whipping took place on election day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. P Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Great article from that "right wing" website Politico: Stop the Press before it profiles Beto O’Rourke again! Quote The winds of swoonery blasted through Texas this year and traveled halfway across the country to dust the Eastern media establishment with love eternal for senatorial candidate Beto O’Rourke. Not since the press corps fell in love with Barack Obama in the 2008 presidential campaign has such a sirocco of worshipful candidate profiles and commentaries appeared in the national press. “Is Beto O’Rourke the Left’s Obama-like Answer to Trump in 2020?” asked Vanity Fair. “Beto O’Rourke Could Be the Democrat Texas Has Been Waiting For,” offered BuzzFeed. Still more positive Beto coverage sprinkled the pages of Yahoo News, Time, GQ, Rolling Stone, the Guardian, the New York Times, Politico and Esquire as they worked off the same template. The Washington Post indulged Betomania with a feature, another feature, a column and the sort of ancillary coverage it ordinarily gives the Washington Redskins. The media’s adoration for the three-term House member from El Paso knows a simple origin. He’s lauded and cuddled by reporters for the simple reason that he’s not Ted Cruz, the Skeletor of American politics. Former Senator Al Franken captured the cross-party feelings for Cruz in a recent book, in which he wrote: “I like Ted Cruz more than most of my other colleagues like Ted Cruz. And I hate Ted Cruz.” A “jackass,” former Speaker of the House John Boehner once called him. A “wacko bird,” said Sen. John McCain. “Ted’s a nasty guy,” said Donald Trump, who knows everything about being nasty. “That’s why nobody likes him.” By being gracious where Cruz is unmerciful, by listening instead of shouting, by spraying sunshine rather than cloaking everything with doom, by running as the underdog, by being a former punk rocker instead of a cheapjack punk, O’Rourke has given reporters the easy contrasts that make political journalism write itself. He exudes youth (he’s 46). Cruz looks old (he’s 47). He makes reporters nostalgic for the 1960s by conjuring the spirit of Robert Kennedy, complete with the bangs, the teeth, the rolled-up sleeves, the paeans to the oppressed, the uplift and the liberal platitudes. Cruz comes armed with darker purposes—as if auditioning for a part as a Blue Meanie in an amateur production of Yellow Submarine. Remember Cruz’s machine-gun bacon? Reporters got their fill of this sort of thing during Cruz’s 2016 campaign. If you were covering the Texas contest, wouldn’t you rather spend your time skateboarding at the Whataburger with O’Rourke than watching Cruz cook pig with a firearm? The O’Rourke swoon was bolstered by his respectable showings in the polls. As recently as Sept. 21, New York magazine was calling the race “Officially a ‘Toss-up.’” The polls made O’Rourke’s crusade to turn Texas from red to blue, a prospect that has possessed liberal Texans since 1994, when they last elected a Democrat to statewide office, seem less than quixotic. In some ways, the O’Rourke campaign is a replay of Wendy Davis’ failed 2014 run for the Texas governorship, another liberal-against-conservative contest in which the Democrat was buoyed by a flotilla of encouraging East Coast coverage. But today’s Quinnipiac University Pollput O’Rourke down 9 points against Cruz, with Cruz trending up. If the poll holds, Texas will not transmogrify into California this election cycle and the attempt to run a Brooklyn campaign against his Texas opponent will have failed again. In late August, Texas Monthly took O’Rourke swoonery to its highest altitudes when it started gaming out the political possibilities that await the candidate should he lose this contest in a piece titled “Will Beto O’Rourke Become President?” If O’Rourke loses to Cruz, he’ll be free to politick his way to the bottom half of the Democratic ticket in 2020, and if he’s lucky enough to lose that contest he’ll be perfectly positioned to wrestle the party away from the old and in-the-way Democrats—Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden. “Such has been the El Paso congressman’s streak of good press and respectable polls of late that it’s beginning to look like even a loss in his Senate race might not diminish his political momentum,” the article concludes. When the local press says you can win by losing, how can the national press disagree? By positioning himself as the anti-Trump, both in terms of policy and temperament, O’Rourke dredged a safe harbor for political reporters weary of the combat-fatigue inducing ack-ack of covering Trump. They owed him for providing this relief—and they have paid their debt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. P Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Democrats are now whining that they want some of fake Hispanic Robert #Beto O'Rourke's overflowing war chest. They want to redistribute it to states where they might have an actual chance of winning. 🤣🤣🤣#VetoBeto #ChooseCruz #KeepTexasRed https://t.co/sSo9HJxoXb — Bossy Brat (@JGalt09) October 13, 2018 Democrats starting to regret burning millions of dollars on just Beto O’Rourke Quote Hollywood’s favorite Texan is still down by about 9 points against incumbent Sen. Ted Cruz, where he’s been hovering for a while. And now it looks like Democrats are having second thoughts about burning all their campaign money in one place.

Mr. P Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 The reality is Beto now has more $$$ than he could possibly need for his campaign.

Mr. P Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Beto O’Rourke’s campaign will be remembered for decades.Not because it was successful, but because Democrats figured out a way to waste millions of dollars on a moron who posts videos of himself playing air guitar and uses a skateboard as a means of transportation.— Zachary Miller (@_ZacharyMiller) October 13, 2018 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
