Notable Quote – B.b.b.but, you’re not listening to us WARNING you about him!
I wonder how many people are like me and sympathize with Trump because he is bullied. I never liked Trump and I didn’t vote for him, but the continual attacks on him make me sympathetic. If this were a movie, he would be the hero, and the attackers are the smug “cool” kids who will … Read more

Bullying of Conservatives on Campus
Perhaps because colleges have been bastions of Leftism for years we are seeing a frequent bullying of conservatives on campus.

Why? Because the Left has redefined the word “tolerance”
…to mean that they only tolerate those that agree with them. Other people, certainly not so much; they’re vaunted “Anti-Bullying” program goes out the window (isn’t that right Dan Williams, when it comes to Libertarians?). This LtE (Letter to the Editor) caught my eye this morning:
To The Daily Sun,
Why do Democrats attack conservative women? Why do Democrats bully conservative women? Why do Democrats hate successful conservative women? An example of this was the attack by the so-called comedian on Sarah Huckabee Sanders. The so-called comedian attacked her looks not her beliefs, she embarrassed her in public, abused her and intimidated her. Democrats attacked Condoleezza Rice on her hairstyle and her choice of wearing black jackets. Conservative women have endured bullying remarks like:
— She is not a woman
— She is a little child
— She is not educated
— Let’s make fun of her accent
— Killing babies is a joke; you need to knock them outWe were in tears seeing a lovely person like Sarah Huckabee Sanders bullied, intimidated and embarrassed on TV. Jimmy Kimmel thought it was funny.
I do not understand why Democrats are bullies and mean to conservative women.
