A Toxic Brand and it's Baneful Disciples

"The reality is, they have no vision, no policy. They have nothing to sell but hate, and Americans are not buying it. – Governor Greg Abbott of Texas. 

Governor Abbott, whatever you think about him, is right on both counts. Democrats are selling their own brand of toxic hate in the streets and in the nation's capital, but sensible citizens aren't buying. We're talking about real, visceral hate here. Not dislike or disapproval, but active hate democrats have become so good at. Generally, when people talk about hate, they mean dislike. If someone says they hate broccoli, they usually mean they dislike it and do not want to eat it. They see broccoli, they leave it on their plate, and forget about it. They do not obsess over broccoli, keeping their hatred for it burning in their minds 24/7.

Real hate is an active emotion, one whose energy consumes those engaging in it. It is the type of thing that leads individuals to obsess over the object of their hatred. Eventually, if kept up long enough, it consumes the hater. We see it here among most Never-Trumpers and the vicious anti-Israel crowd. It leads to compulsive behavior, like daily anti-Trump screeds over trivial (and occasionally nonexistent) failings puffed up to DefCon 1 status. It is an energy sink. It is tedious and boring. Everyone else either tunes it out or points and laughs.

The energy wasted on hate is a major reason Christianity stresses forgiveness. You cannot simultaneously hate and forgive. Forgiveness requires you to put the hate behind you. It frees that energy for use elsewhere. You may dislike what those you love do, but you do not expend effort hating them.

Look at Gaza. The inhabitants have a piece of territory they could turn into a resort that Monaco could envy. They could be rich, peaceful, and healthy, the jewel of the Middle East. Instead, they pour all their resources into destroying their hated neighbor, Israel. As a result, their home is an impoverished rubble heap. Humans almost instinctively know hatred is bad.  Not that we are not capable of it: the whole Lost Cause movement was a product of post-Civil War Confederate hatred of the North.  Hatred consumed the South and left it well behind the rest of the United States. The South did not rise to the prominence it now holds in the US economy until it was willing to put the hatreds engendered by the Civil War behind it.

Nowadays a small Southern town is a far more tolerant place than a Northern university town. I personally can attest to that. 

 Yet hate is what the Democrats are selling. Hope is what Americans want. Whether you like Trump or dislike him, hope is what Trump is selling, not hate. He cannot be defeated by hating him, only by selling a superior version of hope. But to today's' democrat, Hope is just a worn out campaign slogan.

A Salty Serpent Head Takes Dems to the Woodshed

James Carville Warns 'If Trump Wins' And Replaces Liberal Justice, US Will 'Officially' Become 'Theocracy' pic.twitter.com/IB9q4ZnFUW

            Carville Warns 'If Trump Wins' And Replaces Liberal Justice, 

                                   US Will 'Officially' Become 'Theocracy'

Republican Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry signed Senate Bill 313 into law last Wednesday, making it the first state to mandate a small display of the Ten Commandments in public school classrooms.

“So let’s everybody remember what’s really really at stake here,” Carville continued. “What this is really really about. And it’s about imposing a theocracy on other people...... It is in Louisiana and they’re being exploited by people who really have, which I think is an odious and insidious agenda for the United States of America".

Once again, a show of desperation on Serpent Head's part. He should know better.

For all the bad reputation accrued by "The Kingfish", Huey P.  Long as governor of Louisiana (1928-32) not only guaranteed free school textbooks for every pupil the state, including private religious schools,  but built hundreds of brick school building that continued to be constructed through the early depression years.  Long's opponents claimed  the free textbooks to religious schools violated the separation of church and state and sued Long. The case went to the U.S. Supreme Court, which ruled in Long's favor in a major Church / State ruling. 

Inside the main entrance to these schools, and schools built up until the late 1940's, most of which are still stand today were 3 very large bronze plaques. One held the words of the 'Declaration of Independence', another 'The Bill of Rights' and the third plague 'The Ten Commandments'.  Real scary stuff ya know. A picture shows they were large enough to not be missed. No one was worried about a theocracy back then.  Just fear mongering and bigotry by the Democrats.

They remained in place, I have been told, until desegregation of the public schools in 1970.  Eventually after black teachers and administrators took over the schools deemed  the plaques offensive and they were taken down and eventually replace with horrendously bad urban art.  And while Carville graduated from a catholic high school, he attended public primary school during the 1950's. He knows about the plaques. He remembers them.

This my friends is just more fear mongering for the leftist rabble. The US Supreme Court, nor the Legislature of the State of Louisiana belongs to the Democrat party. And this move by Governor Landry is not pushing anything radical on students or teachers. Can't say that about the gay lobby though can ya James? 

 Fear & Smear is all the Dems have. 

BTW, any of yous guys remember the portraits of the sitting US President that I was told were hung everywhere in public buildings and schools?  No one I know remembers seeing a presidential portrait hung in public buildings since Ronald Reagan won the 1980 election. 

Guess they haven't gotten over that either........

Serpent Head Wants to Force Media To Help Biden Defeat DJT

Sorry, someone left the gate unlocked again..... 

DC - Dem Strategist James Carville Thursday called for the Biden’s White House to help establish a way to compel the media to help defeat former President Donald Trump. 

 The New York Times’ executive editor Joe Kahn in May said his publication’s duty is to cover what Americans care about rather than what benefits Biden and hurts Trump, with the president’s close aides reportedly urging officials to criticize the NYT’s coverage since they believe the election is “existential” for the nation. Carville recently took issue with Kahn’s approach and urged media outlets to boost their “slanted coverage” of Trump to help ensure the former president does not secure reelection in 2024.

Carville on “Politics War Room” suggested the White House go a step further by telling the media more specifically what to cover and “have some kind of enforcement mechanism” to do so. 

“I call it the problem of the mosquito in a news colony. You got to pick a spot, alright, and there’s so many things about Trump. He’s crooked, he’s treasonous, he uses racism, he’s incompetent, he’s vulgar, he’s a sexual predator. But you get one and the next day it’s something else, and you’re jumping around.

There has to be, and this is where I fault the White House. The president needs to give a speech in fifteen minutes, and they poll, and they know. I mean, don’t kid yourself, they know exactly. Tell us what negative to accentuate. And then you can have some kind of enforcement mechanism. 

Hopefully, we get this in the debate, that there’s a coherent line of attack coming out of Biden against Trump, so that we can all pick it up. But then one segment on MSNBC is in one place, the Times columnist, you know, Krugman, is in another place and E. J. Dionne somewhere else and Eugene Robinson is over there. And it’s ten different people in ten different places and that’s not effective.

I don’t have anything against slanted coverage, I really don’t … I would have something against it at most other times in American history, but not right now. 

Fuck your objectivity. 

The real objectivity in this country right now is we’re either going to have a Constitution or we’re not.”

*BURP*

Serpent Head Speaks: The State of the Dem Party - Seeing your Grandma Naked - Too many Preachy Females.

Democratic strategist James Carville spoke to the New York Times of his overall disgust and disapproval of the current state of the Democratic Party. With his typical Cajun demeanor, Serpent Head took a swing at Biden poll numbers saying looking at them was equivalent to "walking in on your grandma naked." 

Despite his scathing take, Carville did add, "I actually like Biden. He's a tenacious guy that's had a real life."

Yeah, not many guys have actually sold their own driveway.

Despite his overall approval of Biden, Carville said that he suspected there to be too many "preachy females" in the party, who are turning-off black male voters, the mouth breathers of 'The Squad,'who are just to the left of the marxist wing of the party.  He also complained that "woke stuff is killing us' and that the left was talking in a language that Americans did not understand".

Carville recently made the news after referring to Marjorie Taylor Greene who heckled Biden's SOTU speech as 'white trash'. "I tell people I have the equivalent of a Ph.D. in white trashology, and you saw real white trash on display." "And let me say something about ... Marjorie Taylor Greene. She really needs a fashion consultant. Can I recommend George Santos?"🤣
