Liberals say it Doesn’t Matter How Many GOP Women or Minorities are Elected – They’re Still Sexist and Racist

By Onan Coca   / 8 November 2014   / 0 Comments   

 
 
The Democrat weeping and gnashing of teeth continues to flow with a serious bent of the racist/sexist variety. It seems that it doesn’t matter what the GOP does, they simply cannot win with the Democrat core. Sure, many conservative women and minorities were elected to public office across the country this past week… but according to the Democrats, that was all for show. The GOP is as racist and as sexist as they have ever been.

I kid you not.

Here are a couple of the latest examples of the bankrupt rhetoric coming from the left. They can’t fight us with ideas so they use disgusting ad hominem attacks that are more suitable for the gutter than they are public discourse.

At MSNBC we learn that it doesn’t matter how many women get elected on the GOP ticket – we’re all still a bunch of horrible sexist pigs. (Yes, even the ladies.)

 

Ana Marie Cox, founder of the Wonkette.

“Yes, Mia Love won and I think that’s great, and yes, Joni Ernst won and I think that’s sort of great. But the Republican caucus is actually proportionally even more male and white than it used to be, because they elected so many more men than they did women. So let’s keep that in mind.”

GOP-womenThere you have it. Sure, there are more elected GOP women than ever before… but somehow we are also more male than ever before. Get it?

But wait, there’s more.

In Utah, Mia Love became the first female African-American elected to Congress as a Republican. This simple fact should blow up all of the horrible Democrat talking points about racism and sexism, as Love comes from one of the most conservative states in the Union.

But no, Democrats can still pretend this black woman’s victory over a white man is because of racism and sexism. (These ugly Democrats sure have a talent for this…)

We told you about Love’s guest appearance on CNN earlier this week, where she said this.

“This has nothing do with race. Understand that Utahans have made a statement that they’re not interested in dividing Americans based on race or gender, that they want to make sure that they are electing people who are honest and who have integrity. …That’s really what made history here. Race, gender, had nothing to do with it.”

“In Saratoga Springs there are very few black residents. I wasn’t elected because of the color of my skin, I wasn’t elected because of my gender. I was elected because of the solutions that I put at the table because I promised I would run a positive issues-oriented campaign and that’s what resonated.”

Leave it to the Democrat faithful to turn her election into something ugly and disturbed. Just look at the things they are saying…
 

We need to face facts fellow conservative. It doesn’t matter how far we progress with diversifying our base, the Democrat Party can’t survive if they can’t use ugly personal (and ignorant) attacks.
 
 
They have nothing new to say.

They’re ideas are old and busted – already proven wrong by the socialist countries of Europe, who are now clawing and scrambling simply to stay relevant in a world that is quickly passing them by. Democrats could lean on European socialism 20 years ago because their financial failures hadn’t yet caught up with them, but Europe’s terrible economy and lackluster jobs  market is laid bare now. Even the most ignorant observer can see that European socialism has failed – as Portugal, Iceland, Greece and Italy can attest to.

So these ugly attacks will continue, and we’ll continue to document and refute them as best we can. We have to continue preaching liberty until all of the fence sitters understand that we are the Party of freedom and equality. We are the true egalitarians because we believe in the equality of every individual – white, black, brown or any other pigmentation, male or female, old or young. We believe that the circumstances of your birth have nothing to do with the possibilities of your future. In America, anyone can achieve his or her dreams, but it isn’t the government’s job to do it for you… You should be responsible enough to do it for yourself.

I like Rep. Love. A lot. But I am so pissed off that she even had to say this. Not with her, she replied with grace and poise. But her being put in the situation in the first place.

Rational people say it doesn't matter what liberals say--they're still insane.

Yes, they are insane. They are our parents, siblings, coworkers, neighbors and friends. And therein lies our dilemma; they are fellow Americans who have a thinking disorder and need our help, not our scorn.

But how do we help them?

I'm guessing that many of us have made the decision to avoid politics in order to keep relationships with them.  They are irrational, emotional, defensive, and impossible to reason with no matter how intelligent, or otherwise decent they are.

How do we even begin the conversation without losing them?  (And I have family members I do NOT want to lose).

Believe me, lady, I get it. Your point is the salient issue I struggle with. With family members, political discussion is often out of bounds. So, how do we get through to these political obsessive-compulsives? 

I don't have the answer to this. But, with parents or siblings or cousins hating them for their political affiliation is simply not an option. So, there we are.

Yes.  There we are.

Occasionally I will make a facebook post that one or more may read, but I refuse to get into a family squabble on a public forum.  I see some of the things they post (like one who recently said Barack Obama has been criticized more than ANY prior president. OY!), but I refuse to even go there on FB with a sibling, in-law, child, whoever.....

I just feel like the subject needs to be discussed, but it is literally impossible because they are so emotionally invested in this punk excuse for a president, that criticizing him is like attacking a boy they have a crush on.

And in at least one case, the guy is almost 70 years old!

I feel like I'm in the Twilight Zone.  The left has gone stark raving mad!  (And I'm related to some of them!)

I struggle with the same issues.  I have a couple of dear, dear, DEAR friends that we cannot have a conversation about politics because we don't want to get mad at each other.  One of my friends is in deep mourning still after the election that "went terribly wrong" in his book. 

I love him and I believe he is horribly misguided.  I keep hoping my beliefs will be exemplified in my life and that he will eventually see that people like me are not the "haters" he thinks we are.  It's funny, we love each other and have no trouble showing our affection with each other, but it's like he thinks I'm an exception.

I don't hate anyone and I make sure they know it but neither do I cut them one inch of slack on political matters.  There have certainly been some temporary fireworks but, over time, it's had the desired effect in my family.  May not work that way for others.

Me too.  I've seen her and Tim Scott invisibly wince when the first thing they are always asked about is racial.  Why can't we look beyond that crap now?  Stop counting people by their color!

I think most people do look beyond it, which is why those who don't - or can't - seem more and more offensive by the year.

It has more to do with indoctrination and government propaganda.  Couple that with a media which refuses to be honest and you have the crazy people who call themselves liberals.

Why do you need to get through? Why do they? Vote for who you think deserves to win and let them do the same. Political opinions should not shape the nature of your relationship with people close to you. Liberals can be liberals and still be close to and matter to you.

Really?  Ask the Jews about their relationship with their German neighbors back in the 30s.

Stop asking stupid questions.  You made a blanket statement - never let politics influence your relationships - and I merely provided the one instance necessary to disprove that statement.

As to people I know who voted left - most of them are people of goodwill - but they are also colossally stupid because they're willing to ignore what are now the basic facts of reality regarding left/socialist political solutions and to vote for someone solely because of that person's stated intentions (and also because he's black and therefore their vote redeems them from the racism of being white).  The fact of the matter is, there are very few people across the entire political spectrum who wish to see people destitute and living in the gutter - notwithstanding all of the lies and falsehoods that come mostly from the left and are aimed primarily at the right - so what matters is not intention, but understanding and application.

That does mean that I have to bite my tongue and put up with some really rank nonsense from those I know.  But I'll suffer no such foolishness from someone who insists on rubbing their political stupidity in my face, especially if they aren't someone I know.

Stupid, gullible, naïve, brainwashed, trying to be nice but voting for very nasty people and a corrupt political ideology.....


Does that count as "terrible" in your eyes?

Yes.

If not outright "terrible", at least dangerously stupid.

That's a bit of an exaggerated/simplified version of what I said. As somebody more towards the middle I do not see the left as particularly more evil than the right. I believe they have vastly differently opinions about the way government and the world should function. The reason you can only come to an impasse with people on the left is because there really is no way for one to definitively prove the other wrong outside of isolated political incidents. They believe the world should work the way they think it should and people on the right think similarly. It's like arguing over which version of chocolate tastes better, even though anybody with taste buds knows it is clearly dark chocolate. Truth be told there are things I agree with the left on and things I disagree with them on, same goes for the right. I also disagree with all of you on some things. Your post earlier seemed to imply that at a moments notice the left would line up behind Barack and start throwing Republicans into slave camps. I do not believe that; I also don't believe that Obama is some kind of antichrist. I think he's a lame president that doesn't have our best interests in mind, but I leave it at that.

All you achieve is creating a new enemy. Sure, you don't have to do anything, but sometimes it is worth it not to.

This is deliberate ignorance that results in terrible things done by terrible people.  Does that make a difference to you?

And as a bit of information for someone who is in the 'middle,' I would advise you that there are no Bill Ayers/Barack Obama/Eric Holder/Valerie Jarrett types on the right.  It is the left that has the political leaders who literally want to destroy America.

Most ignorance is not deliberate. Why would somebody intentionally be wrong? I'm not saying it never happens, but I believe that most people on most parts of the political spectrum believe what they are saying.
