Commented on Iceland voters choose sovereignty in national referendum, reject bid to join European UnionThe Icelandic people are on top of their s***, nobody wants to piss them off. When they kicked out the bank, that sent a message.
Put it this way: I'd volunteer to help boost the birth rate there instead of them paying "outsiders" to come in; that's one of the few issues I have with the Icelandic government.

Accurate???? What "Big Bob" does is stereotype people. Citizens have enough to be upset about without having to "manufacture outrage". Most conservatives have some exposure to the left/liberal MSM during their days, so at least on the right, most people are hearing both sides. Those on the left, however, probably do lack exposure to sources from other perspectives.
One popular internet source of news, the RealClear site, deliberately posts articles from both sources on the left and sources on the right. It is a good way to stay up on what the other side is saying.

Will: The metaphor - "I'm okay; you're okay" - does not work in today's political landscape.
If the very best politicians are not elected going forward, we may prove to 'NOT be determined to survive as a Constitution Republic.' You do remember the Vegetable Biden Administration ... Right?

Extremists defy our laws and support others who do. Normal citizens respect our laws and want to see them enforced. That includes our immigration laws. Some far left extremists not only condone illegal aliens breaking our immigration laws to sneak across the border, but it does not even upset them when those illegal aliens then start breaking our criminal laws on a wide variety of things from murder adn rape and burglary to shoplifting. Normal citizens want to see our laws enforced. Extremists like "Big Bob" do not.

The only "extremist" I have seen posting on this site goes by the screen name of "Big Bob". To him, if you are to the right of AOC or Bernie Sanders, his little mind tells him you are an "extremist". If Bobby really wants to see an extremist, he just has to look in a mirror.

Another feature of extremism (left or right):
Manufacturing outrage. Since we tend to only access media sources we agree with, those sources, which must turn a profit, understand that the best way to increase traffic or viewership is to amplify certain points of view to keep their audience coming back for more. The truth no longer matters. It's about "clicks." Social media has perfected this method by keeping us outraged over this, that, or the other thing to the point nobody knows what's going on. We lurch from outrage to outrage as we are taken advantage of by people whose primary concern is personal gain. Every extremist knows that fear, makes them relevant.

Big Bob, there are not enough hours in the day to outline just how Non Patriot Leftists are a huge drag on the sustainability of this Republic. Every normal American knows that.
No right thinking American believes that Illegals should be allowed to pour into our nation of laws, and then once we get lawless vegetables, like the latest Democratic Socialist Idiot, out of the office of the executive, patriotic Americans are not going to enforce our immigration codes. Big Bob: There is only one side to what is real.

Anyone who has themselves actually been a slave should be able to file for reparations with the UN against whatever country they were a slave in. If they have not themselves ever been a slave, then such claims would be total BS. The UN is useless.

Commented on Issues in the NewsGood points. Those Flock surveillance cameras are a Stalinist assault on our privacy. Making them permanent was placed in the Budget bill by the Senate, meaning the only way to stop it was voting down the entire budget, something nobody in the legislature had any stomach for. Kidwell and the Freedom Caucus was able to block the Flocks for years until RINOs used an excused medical absence by Kidwell to slip it into a bill at the last minute. Apparently nobody else in the Freedom Caucus was in the "read every bill" including the last minute changes mode like Kidwell was.
Genuine conservatives are waking up to the totalitarian threat of Flock cameras and the computer network that coordinates them. Texas Governor Greg Abbott just issued an executive order blocking use of state funds for them in his state. We need a lot more vigilant conservatives like Abbott and Kidwell.

Commented on Iceland voters choose sovereignty in national referendum, reject bid to join European UnionGood for Iceland. It's never a good idea to give up national sovereignty and local control. When "leaders" attempt to give those things away, they should be looked at with great suspicion.

Commented on GOP Senate Committee backed establishment in primaries, but not conservative in generalThe NRSC has been doing this sort of thing for a long time. This model is more and more setting the stage for how the GOP is working at all levels against conservatives.

Commented on GOP Senate Committee backed establishment in primaries, but not conservative in generalThese national GOP committees should keep their stinking noses O-U-T of local primaries. They need to keep their powder dry for the general election, and then help all Republicans who need it and have a chance.

When crazed leftists attack any law enforcement with a deadly weapon, including a vehicle or a gun, as those two crazed leftists did to ICE, then they win their Darwin awards. FAFO as they say. ICE has to wear masks because crazed leftists dox them and threaten their families. The left, itself, caused the need for the masks.
Border police in a number of European countries have had to resort to guns in dealing with illegal aliens. the Greek military actually killed a few of them trying to rush the main crossing between Turkey and Greece. It is justified because illegal alien invaders have used deadly force against border guards, including killing a Polish infantryman with a homemade spear. Federal law makes harboring an illegal alien a felony, and that law needs to be enforced. The Democrats want to keep here the illegal aliens who commit crimes in our country, so they can commit more crimes against Americans. Even Gov. "Tampon Tim" Walz pardoned a child rapist illegal alien to try to (unsuccessfully) keep him in the country.

And that brings up another feature of extremism. Extremists tend to source their information from those they agree with. In reality, every story has 3 sides, the left, the right and the truth. Extremists aren't interested in the truth. They tend to simplify an issue leaving out the very real complexities we all face in life.
Example: CV points out that Americans are with conservatives on illegal immigration. On one hand that appears true, however when Americans see citizens in Minnesota being shot in the street, kids torn from their parents, and masked gunmen patrolling their neighborhoods, support for this activity drops. Extremists want you to believe life is black and white. Everyone reading this knows that isn't true.

You might want to look at some polls, Little Bobbie. Americans are with conservatives on deporting illegal aliens and the SAVE Act to protect our elections from shananigans. They are with the GOP on energy, not the Democrats nutty climate crusade. They want to keep biological males out of female sports and female restrooms and locker rooms, again aligning with the conservative position.
In fact, Bobbie, form your posts here, you are quite a far leftist.

Your worried cause you just make it up. Both parties have their extremists. The BO is a far right-wing publication that 80% of the country would be at odds with. The democrats have their version of it on the far left.
Both sides make up stuff about each other to appear normal. Extremists are not the norm, hence why we call them extremist. Maybe we should be working together to solve our common problems.

It is just not that complicated: The Left is bereft of all common sense, and all common decency, and this is me, with all my knowledge attained, just being kind because I could innumerate and go quite deep.
Is the Republican Party the answer? Maybe, but only if we rid ourselves of most, if not all of the RINOs.
