Many modern-day political followers would proclaim that no modern-era President or politician was ever as hated as George W Bush.
Against the backdrop of visible hate they might just be right.
However, against the ideology of defining hate level by the strength of the hater, more people still would attach the “most hated” label to Karl Rove.
Each contingent might just be right; it is, quite simply and historically, too early to tell.
However, I would argue the most hated, and subsequently most influential, man is actually the person who gave rise to both Karl Rove and George W Bush, Lee Atwater.
Lee Atwater was the mentor for Karl Rove, and subsequently under his tutelage “The architect” was born. Were it not for the messaging system of Karl Rove, learned at the knee of the master Atwater, few would doubt the 2004 electoral victory of Dubya.
But what made Lee Atwater so darned good is exactly what is needed right now. It was Atwater who helped bring Ronald Reagan to victory against Jimmy Carter. A look at Atwater’s messaging style could seriously benefit today’s patriots. (more…)
Quick grab the Snuggies and comfy blankies for the Sniffy Occupoopers, and Occupy Wailstreet peeps. No one showed up to their protests. Oh noes, the horror of the disappointment 🙁
Aghast at the optic of a law enforcement response to their multi-month long threatening proclamations of violence, anarchy, plan of attack and disruption, the occupoopers are depwessed and need some skootchin snuggles, or something.
This is good, very good. Chris Matthews doubles down on his narrative and in so doing he exposes the truth of the prog lies. Progs ARE the REAL RACISTS.
Chris Matthews defines the term “Food Stamp” recipient by race.
Chris Matthews defines the term “Welfare Queen” by race.
Chris Matthews is the one defining by race, not conservatives, not Republicans and certainly not Mitt Romney or Paul Ryan.
This is the entrenched ideology of the progs.
The progs are the Pure Racists. Non-progs, or patriots, define issues by behavior or policy outcomes. Progs define issues by skin color.
This is exactly what we need to see the Chris Matthews types continue to do and this narrative is exactly what we need to be skillful at deconstructing.
Aaaaarrrgh….. (that’s me shouting at the conservative coalition). Why do people continue to sell the left-wing ideological media narrative and fuel their insufferably flawed talking points? Why? For the love of God,…. WHY?
Everyone is selling the storyline of GOP Governor Charlie Crist endorsing Obama and speaking at the DNC convention. Who gives a crap? Crist is a PROG and always has been a PROG. His home is the DNC…. it should come as no surprise.
Hello?…. Anyone?…. Did Charlie Crist run as a GOP candidate for Senate? NO. He ran as an independent. Charlie Crist was kicked out of the GOP by THE PEOPLE in the state of Florida who recognized him and his like-minded ideology for what it was: opportunistic self-serving big government stupidity.

Full ideological progressive entrenched irrational intollerance on display… Chris Matthews edition. I hope and pray that Mr. Tingles and his cohorts maintain this same visible approach in their water-carrying advocacy of President Obama.
It exposes their insufferable detachment from the majority of the electorate:
…and lest ye forget, this is the home town of the President.
(Via WZ) At least nine people were killed and 28 others wounded in a spate of shootings since Friday night in Chicago, according to local reports.
The most recent shooting death occurred on Sunday afternoon in the city’s South Side, where a 19-year-old was shot from a passing vehicle, according to the Sun-Times Media Wire. The man died in the hospital after the 2:50 p.m. (3:50 p.m. ET) shooting, the Sun-Times Media Wire reported.
At least 17 people were shot, one fatally, from 6 p.m. Saturday to 6 a.m. Sunday alone, according to the Chicago Tribune. (more…)
(Via SBPDL) The Warriors is movie in dire need of a re-make. Made in 1979, the movie is a tale of rival gangs in New York City and, well, isn’t a good movie.
Based on a book by Sol Yurick, the director and casting agents of The Warriors was forced to add white characters to the eponymous gang because Paramount (which would be distributing the film) didn’t think an all-Black cast would have any “commercial appeal.”
Yurick’s book doesn’t have a white character, and the re-make of The Warriors should try and be as true to the source material as possible.
With one exception: move the location of the gang-war to Chicago, a city already besieged by the type of violence Yurick wrote about. More to the point, the participants are already the correct racial hue.
The violence in Chicago has been documented here – and here, here, and here – on many occasions (and at VDare), but the night of August 23 and the morning of August 24 broke new ground. (more…)
