@O'Shay Muir : So you're saying they've been fighting a 2-front war against libertarians and sincere conservatives on the one side, and Progressives and sincere liberals on the other. Because that's a theme that runs through 70-80% of normal people on both sides. But it's way more visible on the left, because of all the meet-you-for-brunch liberals who still watch lamestream media, and jumped on the Iraq War bandwagon.
It's just a theory, but there are a LOT of conservatives/libertarians who love the way Jimmy eviscerates them on this front. Jimmy's still way out in left field, domestically, because he hasn't yet figured out that government will ALWAYS take things this direction in ALL things government touches, INCLUDING (and especially) domestic programs. You want to see all the worst features of what you're protesting against? (poverty, racism, education and health) . Just ask the government to "fix it" for you. Then I guarantee things will get more fucked up than they were before you asked. And why the hell did you ask? Why don't you roll up your sleeves and HELP the nearest person to you who needs help? If all liberals/progressives ACTED on their feelings, on the ground, we wouldn't HAVE to ask the government to help with poverty, health, and education!

@Dead_World_Walking : Easy stereotypes, but you have NO understanding of how hard it has been to be a principled conservative for the last 50 or 60 years. Tell it like it is and they tear you a new asshole. Mention "limited government" and be called a racist.
The FACT is that in a society that's immersed in left-wing ideology, the "bad boys" are now conservatives and the conformist choir boys are all on the left. If you're on the left, you won't see a SINGLE principled conservative on lamestream media or in the schools. It's EASY to be left. It's CONFORMIST to be left. The free spirits are all on the right, nowadays, and it's why they meme better.
Remember how edgy and noncomformist Rolling Stone was back in the '60s? THOSE kinds of voices - and most of the creativity - now seem to reside on the right. Now it's not your school teacher ramming Jesus down your throat. It's your school teacher ramming postmodernism down your throat. And the rebellious youth are rebelling against the same Establishment, just from the opposite direction, because all the New Puritans are on the left! Being "conformist," nowadays is almost 100% a phenomenon of the (neoliberal, postmodernist) left. Shaming and harassing for holding any view that's not in line with the dialectic. Bullying someone in public because they wear a Trump hat. This is all coming from the left, and if the left don't police their own membership, they're going to be a marginalized minority very soon.
And yes, I remember the '80s, where I found myself agreeing with regressive traditionalists on this or that issue, only they supported the same side for some pretty stinky, authoritarian reasons. And there are still a small number of true regressives who are going to vote Republican because God told them. But don't believe for one second that that stereotype in any way characterizes the conservative movement or the vast majority of limited-government types. The regressives on either side never care about how big government IS, they just want it to do what THEY say, in tribalistic fashion, as if you could tame that tiger and he'll be happy with his bowl of Purina when you are meat on the hoof.

Wouldn't surprise me if the panic over the RussiaGate is because they've been doing shit like this and it hasn't worked - or hasn't been working like maybe it did when they first started - so they figure someone else must be doing the same thing better than they are, and they're casting about blindly, looking for "the source." Most likely, it's their own ineptness, disconnect from how real people think, and a growing immunity to the FakeNews and Manipulation Machine spreading like a virus through the general public. This would also explain why Democrat establishment types are so up in arms. They thought they had it all tied up in a bow, and yet these toxic anti-establishment memes keep rolling over their efforts like a tidal wave.
Pretty conspiratorial, but we all know how cut off from real working people the DNC (and RNC) is (are). We all know how arrogant they are. We all know how incompetent they are. So, just like the way they run the government (incompetently), that's how they run the manipulation (and vote-harvesting) machine(s). And, with alternate sources like Jimmy Dore and a multitude of Jagoff Comedians, basement pundits, and the like, their mask keeps slipping and the mind of the public slips out of their grasp, as well.
They carefully stage "reports" for consumption in American homes, like they always have, only there's a jagoff citizen with a smart phone, standing off to the side, showing where the yellow "Crime Scene - Do Not Cross" tape ends just beyond the frame of the news cameras, but in plain view to anybody standing there. They show Proud Boys punching out an Antifa mob, and portray it as right-wing violence, but ANOTHER jagoff with a smartphone shows the whole sequence, which started with bottles and rocks being thrown into a conservative demonstration, that the Proud Boys have been joining to keep the violence down and protect demonstrators from Antifa harassment and violence. The only reason the Proud Boys exist is to protect conservative events from fascists (knowingly and unknowingly) masquerading as anti-fascists.
They think they have this techie stuff all in their hip pockets, but there's a big old hole in their jeans. And their arrogance exposes them time and time again. Like Hillary's e-mail server. In an earlier time, that shit would've been swept under the rug by insiders, but this or that little tidbit of truth will surface, due to their own incompetence and failure to keep EVERYbody in line. It's a cheater's way of thinking and operating that can work very well for a very long time, but as cheaters, they really don't know how to do things the right way, and they miscalculate what everybody else is doing, AND they project their own underhandedness on everybody else.
They're like the poker player who cheats, so when he deals off the bottom of the deck to give himSELF 4 aces, he KNOWS the bastard across the table with 4 aces is cheating! LOL!

@veepedaldude9404 : $5 billion isn't even 1% of a trillion-dollar-plus budget. And why do we call them budgets, when they're anything but? Doesn't "budgeting" mean spending within your means? But that's what you get when every libtard progressive seems in league with every war-mongering weapons manufacture to grow government at every opportunity. The reason gov't can't stay within its means is because the people IN government STAY in government by spending money on EVERYthing, to pander to EVERY interest group.
That's the funny thing about interest groups. They all think they're just tweaking things for THEIR benefit, when, by the time government is done, it has catered to ALL the interest groups, often working at cross purposes to do so, pleasing no one and serving no one. Whatever your pet cause is, quit asking government to tilt the playing field for YOUR cause, because you KNOW it'll do the same thing for EVERY cause, and by the end, we're broke and wondering why shit's so fucked-up.
