Likewise people have tabloid style dirt dug up against them. Hilary has a mountain of it too. But I often I find out key information (the rest of the story) is left out. None of these types of things actually disqualify the person from getting the job they were given it they wouldn't have it.

The primary problem with Bannon is that he arrives at the position with a specific agenda to disempower and attack minority groups. His pro-white agenda is outdated, bizarre and a form of social devolution in a largely globalised international economy...

Now I'm sure the Clinton supporters here would expect me to disregard all that as misinformation, propaganda, exaggeration, distortion etc.

You are welcome but most of the accusations thrown at Hillary Clinton from the conservative side of politics during the election were demonstrated to be false, like Trump's outrageous claims of Obama's birth certificate they were purely designed to discredit her crudentials in the eyes of voters. As we know the underhanded tactic worked.

At least you are honest about your mental weaknesses, unlike a large swathe of middle class Americans who secretly cling to old ways of thinking but covertly hide their thoughts from their non-white co-workers or neighbours

Could be, but would it ever occur to you that just matybe I don't see any value in being on the defensive side of the accusation and denial game? That maybe it's more entertaining to have you and your comrades believe the worse about me?
Something to ponder...

More like allowing you all to use me as a tool to collectively rattle yourselves.
I don't need to intentionally rattle liberals, 4-8 years of Trump will do all that for me.

Another Trump Ally caught calling Michelle Obama an ape
http://www.nytimes.com/2016/12/27/nyreg ... .html?_r=0
Mr. Carl Paladino, a former candidate for governor of New York and a key political ally of President-elect Donald J. Trump. posted remarks last week in response to a survey about 2017 circulated by Artvoice to figures in the Buffalo community.

Asked what he wanted to see “go away in 2017,” Mr. Paladino answered, Michelle Obama, “I’d like her to return to being a male and let loose in the outback of Zimbabwe where she lives comfortably in a cave with Maxie, the gorilla.”

Would seem this view is more widespread in the trump camp than we first guessed

I'm sure each of the bazillion people who have done the Nazi connection with a zillion people in politics, had what they considered to a very valid argument. I wonder how many Nazi comparisons/ connections have been made on the internet in the last 20 years? Perhaps a billion? Now I'm not trying to be rude to you, I just honestly think it's been over done to death for it to carry any kind of impact. Everybody is was a Nazi, like a Nazi, like Hitler. Everybody. There are virtually no exceptions to the rule.

Yes, the comparison to Nazis has been overdone, I agree. But the similarities between Bannon and Streicher were just too much to avoid! :twisted:

That's the thing, a legit comparison will get passed over because of all the bogus ones. Which may have been the plan all along...dun dun dun!

Rural West Virginia is Appalachian country, that's where the term hillbilly and redneck comes from so I would say that this is probably pretty tame compared to some of the things they'd probably say if you got a couple drinks in them. I feel like that is the type of place where a record would scratch and everyone would turn up to look at you when you enter whatever room. It's offensive yeah, it's offensive when people say awful things about Melania Trump and many of the same people offended wouldn't have an issue with that however so there is a double standard.

I always thought going after people's families to be pretty poor taste unless they involves themselves somehow in the campaign or have some relevance, I think Michelle deserves respect for being a mother to her children and think she's been a fine First Lady in that regard despite all my other differences with her and her husband.

People should understand that Obama has attacked these people's way of life by pledging to put coal industry and coal miners out of business, Hillary echoed these sentiments exactly during the campaign and after that point I had full confidence that Trump would win Ohio and Pennsylvania thanks in large part to Trump's dominance in coal country as well as the post-industrial rustbelt regions.

I have no problem with Melania Trump's ethnicity or color. I have a big problem with her being a hypocrite and a racist...

Firstly, there are countless comparisons of George Bush, and other white people, with chimps.

Would the charge of racism stick, in a post-racial, indifferent society.

Does anyone really and truly have any black friends. Then, you know that frank, black people use the same exact terminology as a Kentucky Colonel.

Secondly, Melania is a mother and aging. It's only human. But, where is the class in being a wilting trophy wife, from a third world country, in clingy dresses and softcore, public porn.

I have never made race or gender a divisive issue, when someone is modest, intelligent, and coordinated.

But, both of these people are tacky, for their own, separate reasons.

Michelle expects growing high school students to live on that?

I get America has a teenage obesity epidemic. I get that some high school students are obese and could benefit from a low calorie diet but the skinny and normal weight teenagers don't need to be on Michelle's low calorie diet as well.

This is was I hate about Liberals, They use one size fits all solutions. They have no respect for the individual. They treat everyone like they came from the same cookie cutter.

Maybe that small lunch is enough for someone who's 4'9 but is it enough for the 6'6 quarterback? Liberals think those two people have the same nutritional needs.

How typical for the liberals to think the government knows your needs better than you know your needs yourself.

Maybe it's enough for someone who goes straight home after school and sits on the couch but is it enough for someone who plays sports after school? Liberals treat everyone the same!

Liberals rant on about diversity but liberals are toxic to diversity because they want everyone to be the same.

It wasn't one of the worse ones, by far.

To any of the sjw cyberchondriacs, who may be reading, here, there are raceless grounds to question her sense of class.

To the leftists, reading --

In Communist countries, people all start to look more-or-less the same. Recognition of state holidays, attendance at civic functions, and just-plain patriotism, are supposed to be mandatory. Terms of military service have become universal.

Is this what sjw's really want?

The difference is that George Bush actually sometimes looks like a chimp. It has nothing to do with his being white and it certainly isn't racism...

I'm saying, if we were past racism, you could say that about anyone, and it would stand on it's own.
