UPDATED AND BUMPED – Upon the news that NH Democrat Party Chairman Ray Buckley is planning to run for Chair of the Democrat National Committee, I thought I’d make it a bit easier for der Google to help them out.  Originally posted on July 12, 2013

Not us, Harrell – because until one of our elected friends makes an EXTREMELY bad vote, or a REALLY bad series of votes, we stay loyal to them.  Yeah, loyal – something that is in too short supply in politicis as well as probably being a very foreign concept for you, Harrell, you paid  political hack, who’ll seemingly say anything for a political point (and, like most Lefty operatives, a dollar bill being dragged along at the end of a string).  We know people make mistakes (hey, you’ve even tried to call us out a while ago- that was a mistake, wasn’t it, Harrell?  And if I recall, YOU made quite the doozey as well, right?  Shall we bring that up – again?  I guess contriteness was a short term attribute, eh?).

How might politicians address voter anger at vanishing economic opportunity for working people that helped push unexpected numbers of Americans to Donald Trump’s corner on election day? Immigration and trade have dominated the discussion thus far, but it’s important that policymakers don’t lose sight of more subtle ways the government has distorted the economy to favor the politically connected.

One example: Onerous occupational licensing laws that force people to undergo thousands of hours of often redundant and gratuitous training to perform jobs like auctioneering, tree trimming, and hair styling. . . .

This is a quick interesting point as to WHY Jill Stein (a SHINING example of a Red Commie wrapped in the Green fig leaf) is demanding recounts in WI, MI, or PA – I would not have thought of this angle and its long term consequences (reformatted, emphasis mine).

First Alinsky:

RULE 4: “Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.” If the rule is that every letter gets a reply, send 30,000 letters. You can kill them with this because no one can possibly obey all of their own rules. (This is a serious rule. The besieged entity’s very credibility and reputation is at stake, because if activists catch it lying or not living up to its commitments, they can continue to chip away at the damage.)

And what is “the rule book” in this case?  That’s the easy part – the real question is WHY?

The Democrats’ real strategy in launching recounts

…The recounts, if done by hand, which can be demanded, may take longer than the last day for completing the official counts in a state and directing Electoral College voters.  If all 3 states miss the deadline, Trump is at 260, Hillary at 232.  No one hits 270.

Dilbert’s creator Scott Adams has been drawn into the political fray over the last couple of years and has a really pithy post on the crack up of the Left when they have to stare into that abyss of what their worldview beliefs are and the reality appearing before their eyes.  It really beggers their innermost mantra that anyone not with them are EVILLL and therefore, subhuman and, thus, incapable of anything good.

Adams foretells of their short to mid-term psychosis about to happen in front of us in real-time:

Imagine you are one of the anti-Trump folks who believe we just elected a racist, sexist, homophobic, anti-semitic, science-denying dictator. Let’s say that’s the movie playing in your mind. That’s some scary stuff.

Now imagine watching the news as Trump reveals in slow-motion that he’s flexible and pragmatic on just about everything. . . .

The differences are clear and stark from what we’re seeing from around the world.  I am surprised, however, that Obama’s statement was just full on drool-inducing affirmation of the murderer’s life, given how he has embraced folks like the late Hugo Chavez (outright Socialist leader of Venezuela) and other tin-pot despots that normally are our sworn enemies even as he slighted our traditional allies.

At this time of Fidel Castro’s passing, we extend a hand of friendship to the Cuban people. We know that this moment fills Cubans – in Cuba and in the United States – with powerful emotions, recalling the countless ways in which Fidel Castro altered the course of individual lives, families, and of the Cuban nation. History will record and judge the enormous impact of this singular figure on the people and world around him.

My, doesn’t it sound like a good man gone before (at 90??) Obama’s time? But first, Trump’s statement (both full statements after the jump, emphasis mine):

Today, the world marks the passing of a brutal dictator who oppressed his own people for nearly six decades. Fidel Castro’s legacy is one of firing squads, theft, unimaginable suffering, poverty and the denial of fundamental human rights.

He was a dictator – during the “revolution” but afterwards as well. Nothing of the like from Obama – who would have guessed?  Trump continues:

Home schooled teens helped Republicans win key Senate races.

“…Torsoe was one of several hundred home-schooled teenagers deployed by a group called Generation Joshua in key Senate races in the days before the election to work for Republican incumbents whose re-election would determine whether the chamber remained in GOP hands…For the home schoolers, it’s not just about helping elect someone who shares many of their Christian values. It’s also about getting hands-on experience. And for Generation Joshua, it’s also about grooming a new generation of conservative activists, operatives and leaders.”

Most homeschooler kids are home school by conservative or libertarian parents that:

The decline of faith and family in this country has led to the decline of American values and that lack of appreciation for our own history and virtue.  The misunderstanding of what is so great about America, or indeed if it is great or exceptional at all, is what is driving the elites to fundamentally transform America through a pagan inquisition and through unbridled and imprudent immigration.  The misunderstanding of what George Washington desired – a nation united behind a “common cause” encountering “common dangers, sufferings, and successes” – has been supplanted by the religion of multiculturalism.

As early as 1989, at the end of his farewell address, Ronald Reagan warned about the ill effects of the loss of American patriotism and appreciation for our heritage on the future generation – the one that is today leading our society.  He noted that our history, such as the reason “why the pilgrims came here” had been distorted based on what is in fashion, not what’s important.  Contrasting the growing movement of moral relativism, multiculturalism, and post-Americanism to the America he grew up in, Reagan observed the following:
