    Default There Really Is No Floor To How Low The Dems Are Going

    Gunny and I were going back a forth a bit, he wrote,

    ...It's beyond absurd and even 15 years ago I would have never believed the left would go this far. That goes goes for ALL their current little insane farces.
    ...
    Which seriously reminded me of this I read earlier today. You'll have to follow the links to figure out just how low they are going:

    Minnesota’s Governor Tim Walz is utterly incompetent. For the details, read the just-released issue of Thinking Minnesota, which drives political debate in my state. During the days of rioting, looting and arson in Minneapolis that followed the death of George Floyd, it became obvious that the situation was a disaster. Walz tried to distance himself from the debacle by saying in a press conference that fellow Democrat Jacob Frey, the Boy Mayor of Minneapolis, had been an “abject failure,” but Walz was now taking over and things would get better. Rarely has a politician been so definitively thrown under the bus.


    Walz’s denunciation came as a shock to Mayor Frey, whose political career is presumed to be over. But Frey has finally counter-attacked, and in a man-bites-dog moment, the Star Tribune is willing to criticize a Democratic Governor of Minnesota. I am not sure this has ever happened before.


    Frey has nothing to lose and knows where some of the bodies are buried. So we get this from the Star Tribune: Mayor Frey: Gov. Walz hesitated to deploy National Guard during Minneapolis riots.

    This sounds like junior high school. Seriously

    These people hold public office to look out for the best interests of We, the People. And we get THIS I was more mature than that when I was 6.

    Unfortunately, some conservatives and virtually all liberals never intended to look out for anyone's interest except their own offshore bank account. I say only some conservatives because who would run as a conservative, knowing how many personal attacks you will get from activists and media outlets, if you didn't believe it was the best for the the People?

    I think that all liberals never intend to look out for everyone's interest because liberal platforms always start out with the same three tenets:

    1. We don't care how much we bankrupt our grandchildren as long as we can spend more today
    2. We don't care how much we damage the economy with over-taxation, as long as we can get more tax money to spend on pandering voters into keeping us in office
    3. We can eliminate all spending on defense and police, and somehow magically we won't get attacked by other countries or terrorists, and equally magically there won't be massive crime in the streets.

    Even with the skyrocketing murder rates in cities now, the Dems are STILL sticking with item #3. Unbelievable.

    My friend, actually it is even worse than that......
