Schumer coordinates Dem budget attack on GOP

Quote:
Senate leadership, got on a conference call with reporters Tuesday morning without realizing the reporters were already listening in. Schumer thought he was on a private line with four Democratic senators who were to talk with reporters about the current budget stalemate.

Schumer instructed the group, made up of Sens. Barbara Boxer of California, Tom Carper of Delaware, Ben Cardin of Maryland and Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut, to tell reporters that the GOP is refusing to negotiate.

He told the group to make sure they label the GOP spending cuts as "extreme."

"I always use extreme, Schumer said. "That is what the caucus instructed me to use."
Of course, by Leftist Law, that's "different"...

I said both sides do it and you prove both sides do it. Thanks. BTW are you going to admit this is McCarthyism?

Nope...McCarthyism was looking for SUBSTANCE...Being part of the Communist Party is NOT subjective...Calling someone "extreme" IS subjective...

McCarthyism was accusing people of being something they were not and asking them to prove they weren't. That is exactly what West just did

More on the Commie Hunt......

Quote:
I went on a Communist hunt Wednesday.

"Are you now or have you ever been a member of the Communist Party?" I asked U.S. Rep. Ted Deutch, D-Boca Raton.

I had good reason to grill Deutch about his secret Communist affiliation, because my very own Congressman Allen West, R-Plantation, told a Jensen Beach crowd Tuesday night that he "believes" there are "70 to 80, or 81" Democratic members of the U.S. House of Representatives who are members of the Communist Party.

That's about 42 percent of all the Democrats in the House. So statistically, Deutch could easily be one of them.

"I will only respond to that if I am put under oath and brought before Congressman West's House Committee on Un-American Activities," Deutch said. "We've been waiting for decades to see who will pick up the mantle of McCarthyism, now we know."

I would have to report this conversation to West, which would only exacerbate his severe case of PTSD - Paranoid Talk-Show Disorder.

Look out, comrade Deutch. You could find yourself ending up in the league of that she-badger Debbie Wasserman Schultz, who has already been singled out for deportation by West.

"It makes you wonder how many Democrats there really are in Congress," Deutch said. "Because it wasn't that long ago when West was comparing us to the Nazis. And now we're Communists."

"Yes," I said, "and when you subtract all the Democratic congressmen who are sleeper-cell Muslim Brotherhood members, there's probably nobody left."

I advised Deutch that if he didn't want to get swept up in West's commie hunt, he should avoid wearing red ties to work.

"I would note that red ties have been associated more with Republican members," Deutch said. "And when Republicans swept the House in the 2010 election it was called 'The Red Tide.' "

Cerabino: Congressman West goes on the commie hunt
Where's J. Edgar when you really need him?..

Let's not forget McCarthy was right.

Amazon.com: Blacklisted by History: The Untold Story of Senator Joe McCarthy and His Fight Against America's Enemies (9781400081059): M. Stanton Evans: Books Amazon.com: Blacklisted by History: The Untold Story of Senator Joe McCarthy and His Fight Against America's Enemies (9781400081059): M. Stanton Evans: Books


and maybe Allen is too, although I'd be more comfortable if he had said socialist instead of communist. It's easier to make the case.

Why, None of them are members of the socialist party either.

The correct statement would have been that at least 80 House Democrats adhere to Marxism in one form or another.

Liberals including members of the legislature as well as liberals on PW are Marxists and don't know it. This because they have jumped on board with the mob mentality. Their thought process is so shallow they don't understand they are pushing Marxist ideology.

PW liberals are as much Marxists as PW conservatives are Fascists.

Meaning no.

It's not that everyone else is too stupid to understand your "logic", it's that your bias is so out of touch with reality that it is difficult for others grasp how such a thing can come about beyond a mad science experiment.
