When Glenn Beck tried to say this same thing, he was attacked and ridiculed by the Left.  How will they respond now that Cornel West and Tavis Smiley are the messengers?

When you give away free stuff, the recipients are mad because the did not get enough and those that got nothing are really mad. 

Fact: LA riots where mainly just a steal for free spree! They call them Rave parties now!

HA, you beat me to it!

They won’t comment as is typical with the dishonest bomb-throwing left on Mediaite, and in general.  They’ll lodge some lame attacks and change the story.  You watch and see, I’m psychic.

Perhaps, positively because these gentlemen are presenting in the argument in a calm, dispassionate manner, without threatening the end of the worlds as we no it. They recognize the fundamental truth that in a democracy, people are willing to sacrifice for the common good, and they have done so repeatedly. They also recognize the fact that in a democracy when the sacrifice is not shared, when the sacrifice falls almost exclusively on the shoulders of those least able to bear it, that the outcome is predictable. I have written virtually since the Tories won a plurality of the seats in Parliament and formed a coalition with the Liberal Democrats to govern and began an austerity program which calls upon the poor and working classes to sacrifice, which requires the middle class to accept a lower standard of living and which leaves unscathed the wealthiest, this was going to happen.

These gentlemen also recognize that there are limits to which income disparity may be pushed. That no one begrudges the wealthy hoarding their religious icons, whether those icons be George Washington or Elizabeth II, R, but at a time of called sacrifice, the INCREASING disparity between the poor, working and middle classes and the wealthy will boil over into what have seen on the streets of London and elsewhere in England.

This is predictable. It is in the nature of democracies when these conditions occur. It is not rocket science.

Those who do not understand this do not understand history, sociology, anthropology or the human condition.

Those who exploit the circumstances for their own narrow self interests, like Beck, Lard Limbaugh, O’Hannity and the T-Partee Terrorists in the Congress, are scorned and be labeled the avowed enemies of democracy. These ills are in that sense malicious and destructive.

I know you understand the difference as much as you would like to deny it.

There’s a whole lot of people out here more than ready for the bottom-feeding parasites. There are groups in California, and other states,  who are just waiting for the parasites, and politicians, to give them the justification they need to overthrow this government by force. These two clowns had better just might get their wish.  

I’ll translate:  If you don’t pay us now, we’re going to take your stuff and burn down your homes, later.

I believe the authorities call this “extortion”, but I’m not a legal expert.

This sure sounds like a threat to me.

West isn’t just a messenger. He’s been stockpiling torches, and he’ll be passing them out when he feels the time is right. I’m guessing January 2013.

They’ll burn the cities. They’ll get their asses shot if they make it to the suburbs. And don’t even think about going rural. They’ll never find the bodies.

Unlike the Brits, we’re armed.

Luckily, the progressives are rarely seen outside of their rooms. Both of their answers to The Tea Party movement were utter failures and this call for violence by the lefties will fail as well. Mark my words.

I am hopeful that Obama’s real progressive projects will come to light during his second term, once he’s freed from his shackles, so to speak.

As Ralph Nader said on election day, Obama has to choose if he is going to be “Uncle Sam for the people of this country, or Uncle Tom for the giant corporations.”

Well troll, the latter seems to be true.

Stop licking yourself, phony. At least go in the other room.

These guys should keep their opinions to themselves as it counts for nothing. The rioting in UK has nothing to do with Politics (most of the rioters were from different background), the rioting is purely based on GREED. It was an opportunity that many took part in and are now regretting (well those who were caught or surrendered). 

Pull, they are screaming for distribution of wealth and railing against the “rich”.  That’s as liberal as it gets. 

Bull, not pull, before I’m cited by the Royal Spelling and Grammar Czar.

I believe that both are mistaken.  There is a clear historical link between economic austerity and social disorder in Europe.

“Does fiscal consolidation lead to social unrest? From the end of the Weimar Republic in Germany in the 1930s to anti-government demonstrations in Greece in 2010-11, austerity has tended to go hand  in hand with politically motivated violence and social instability. In this paper, we assemble crosscountry evidence for the period 1919 to the present, and examine the extent to which societies become unstable after budget cuts. The results show a clear positive correlation between fiscal retrenchment and instability. We test if the relationship simply reflects economic downturns, and conclude that this is not the key factor. We also analyse interactions with various economic and political variables. While autocracies and democracies show a broadly similar responses to budget cuts, countries with more  constraints on the executive are less likely to see unrest as a result of austerity measures. Growing media penetration does not lead to a stronger  effect of cut-backs on the level of unrest. ”

At the same time violent crime has fallen in American during the “Great Recession”.

“So the Great Recession should have produced a crime wave. Instead, the doubling of the unemployment rate did nothing of the sort to violent crime, which reached a 40-year low in 2010. What gives?”

how are we not already “redistributing” wealth, michelle?

the bush tax cuts are doing exactly that

you make it sound as if wealth is *only* re-distributed downwards

I guess you just gave up on your argument about Obama and socialism huh?  Once confronted with facts you kind of shriveled up and left.

She tends to do that.

Interesting that I didn’t do that but that the resident T-Partee Terrorists, Paulie and Jeff Merrill did.

I wouldn’t rate this as one of your better posts, but I’m glad you have appeared. Having an articulate and knowledgeable conservative voice around here adds much. Thank you. 

And cowardly, thankfully. Now, go measure your weapon.

this is essentially a meaningless statement

now, michelle—-can you answer my question?

Cuckoo! Cuckoo! Cuckoo!

Juanita is a martyr, I say, a martyr.

glad you are above it all chester

LOL

With you, better cited than sighted.

I didn’t realize it, but I do now.

Riots and looting are already happening. We call them flash mobs. Stanley and Oliver threaten more so we’ll throw more money at a bankrupt value system that thinks books are doorstops.

Yea Pablo don’t you know it takes “courage” to allow liberal rioters to kill you?  Why can’t you be as brave as the Royal Pain in the Ass and not defend yourself.

letting people keep what they earn is not re-distributing wealth thats why

Why it’s as if these two race hustlers would welcome this.

Hmm…

Thanks for the warning. Riots huh? I’m not sure the ‘left’ is prepared for the kind of ‘social justice’ lesson they will get. Hint: Everyone doesn’t get a trophy.

As usual, you are dead wrong.  The difference here is obvious to all.  West and Smiley threaten riots.  Becks warns against them.  Objective parties can see which of those two approaches is opposed to violence.  

Maybe you should go back to playing the race card. That is, after all, your specialty.

All this lust for violence is beginning to speckle Mediaite with “The Blaze” like flecks.

Sounds like you are locked and loaded.

As opposed to “re-distributed” upward? That’s what the government does. Your false equivelence between ‘bush tax cuts’ and “redistributing wealth” is laughable. Letting people keep thier own money = Wealth redistribution. Brilliant.

Something wrong with that? It’s totally legal. I’m locked and loaded and proud of it. ;)

Well, no it isn’t. Riots are one thing, we have had many in the past, but the biggest riot ever was strictly conservative, it was called the civil war, and far worse than the sum total of all other riots to a power of ten. And what was that riot about? The same crap the conservatives scream about now, smaller government, less taxes, and the state’s right to oppress their own people.

Wait…people are too lazy to work, but have enough energy to riot?

Really? I thought it was the canceling of the NFL games this year that would cause ya to riot? Now you have another reason, you two lovable racists?

Yes, give us what we want or we will take your stuff, but will the stuff of us libs alone!

Fortunately the republicans have a candidate willing to discuss seccession, in Perry, and another succession meister in waiting in DeMint.

It sounds like you and Greg are just loaded.

The largest tax cuts were given to those in the lowest earning bracket.

Try again!

Ha! She asked yesterday that beside the Iranian hostage incident, what did Carter do that was so bad?

LOL

The simple response is not usually the best.

Then why are you doing it, libby?

Remember when your mother used to use reverse psychology on you to get you to eat your vegetables?  That’s what I’ve done here, so I’d say this comment worked out fairly well.

Rioting, very similar to what is taking place in Great Britain  has already happened here, numerous times.  Admittedly, there have been “Police Riots,” where Law Enforcement has gone after the protesters such as Selma, Alabama.  Also, the Democratic National Convention of 1968 has been called a “Police Riot,” with good reason.

However,  The Rioting in England, according to the rioters, is because one of the Cops killed one of the “Bad Guys,” which happens to Bad Guys now and then.  However, The rioting, typically morphed into a giant, rationalized orgy of thievery, vandalism and violence.  All because it was somebody else’s fault.  Which, admittedly, does sound like something the Democratic Party in America would come up with!

Moreover:  Recall Watts in 1965, Newark and Detroit in 1967 and LosAngeles in 1992?  What may have been a legitimate complaint by minority Citizens of America, quickly (immediately) became an excuse to balance the so called books and take (steal) from the haves, so the have nots, could have something!

Whether, we have been coddling Communism, Islam or our own misguided citizens, America has been plagued by preferring to be “Mr. Nice Guy.”  Niccolo Machiavelli questioned in, “The Prince,” written in the 15th century:  ”Is it better for a Prince to be loved or feared?”

Maybe America, both internally and externally needs to acquire some respect, maybe even fear from our detractors?

I suspect that was not what realhead was implying.

The best response is not usually simple?

Kind of like…the ‘Peasants Revolt’ of 1381???

We are all socialists by Constitutional mandate since we have, for example, a socialist military. Shouldn’t you non-socialists be arguing that we amend the Constitution to require our military needs to be purchased from private contractor mercenaries? And state control of roads? That’s socialism too. Libraries? Socialism.

I suspect it was!

It is well know that libs want to make sure our kids never feel as though they didn’t win, so now “everyone gets a trophy” no matter how they did! Everyone gets a “Star” on their paper so they won’t feel bad!

As a matter-of-fact, libs have abolished the red pencil and pen from the classroom, because it may make the kids feel chagrined.

In an October 2001 meeting, Summers criticized African American Studies department head Cornel West for allegedly missing three weeks of classes to work on the Bill Bradley presidential campaign, and complained that West was contributing to grade inflation. Summers also claimed that West’s “rap” album (in fact a spoken word album) was an “embarrassment” to the university. ”

I have nothing wrong with SOME socialism, but only when it either benefits the people paying into the system, or supports those that absolutely cannot do for themselves (elderly, mentally handicapped, etc) I have a lot of things wrong with a complete socialist society and with the government removing the incentive to work for what you want in this country.  That isn’t what America is about.

so, we shouldn’t have an taxes at all.

interesting thought

again, so we shouldn’t have an taxes at all?

biggest lie of the day

That was his screen name until a recent change.  You are a funny troll.

What???   ”seven letter words become confusing when you are funtionally illiterate.”

You should know. Hahahahaha….

Fsnook said: “I have nothing wrong with SOME socialism.”

OK, now we have established that you are sometimes a socialist. So what is your gripe with, for example, socialist healthcare?

I can see why. She wanted nothing to do with you either.

Stop being obtuse, it’s wearing thin. Do you see anything in my post that would bring you to that conclusion?
I’ve seen your shtick, circulus in Probando. I’m sure you’ll gather the meaning …….somehow. ;)

Wow now using the comments of drunken girls as a Political stump speech.I remember Mel Gibson making serious comments while being drunk, railing against Jews and excuses were made for him. But drunken girls who also said they were just having fun (which you selectively ignored) should be held accountable for their drunken rant. Right! I see your double standard very clearly.

Beck believes that America is going to melt down, as a matter of religious belief. And you say that is better than what smiley and co said? Why?

“If you don’t treat poor and working people with dignity now, chickens are going to come home to roost later. And it won’t be about love and justice. It will be about revenge, hatred, and then we all go under.”

Nice threat .

But , it’s happening in some cities here now .

You forgot to mention they all needed new flat screen TVs

So we are going to have a bunch of brats running around destroying and stealing things because they believe everything is entitled to them and don’t want to have a job, in between collecting money?

Val, how often have you attacked Glenn Beck for his religion in the comments section of Mediaite?  A hundred times?  A thousand?  

Attacking someone for their religious beliefs is generally classified under the rubric of “bigotry”.

Just saying….

no taxes? who said that?

At this point, it is getting a bit jumbled up on the scroll for a coherent response.  Anyway,  My ORIGINAL name was “Purveyor.”

Then, after the protocol change I lost the name and through serendipity (a joke on myself) I tried “smegma,” someone already had it.  Then I tried the slang, “Schmegma” and the machine ingested that just fine!  Oops!

I was a Ski Racer in my youth (good one too, Regional Giant Slalom Champion) We used to joke that we were so fast because of what we used for ski wax…LOL  Anyway, Mediaite got my old name back with the #1 added.  I am happy.  LOL  My dignity is salvaged.  Ouch!

Cornel West justified to whoever was listening that it is OK to get involved in the unrest that they say will probably happen here, when he said:
“If you don’t treat poor and working people with dignity now, chickens
are going to come home to roost later. And it won’t be about love and
justice. It will be about revenge, hatred, and then we all go under.”
Do they dislike Obama enough to support another strike against his Presidency with uncivil demonstrations in the streets? Good thinkin’ Cornel. And they let him teach people, it’s astounding.

I suppose you’ll be singing that same song if or when your community experiences the unrest that these two have just justified to the viewers.

I was thinking around November 2nd, 2012.

Hell, ask the Community Agitator In Chief. 

When the shit goes down, the perpetrators aren’t going to be asking people about their politics.

Look the standard for civil unrest, including a half million dead or so, is the civil war started by white southern slave owners, and it exceeds all other civil unrest by blacks or anyone else in history many times over. In fact there were two white civil wars, the Whiskey (tax) Rebellion, and the Civil War. Who says that a little letting lose in the streets isn’t just what the doctor ordered as opposed to armed rebellion.

Very well. You admit that you are a supporter of the the possible unrest like London that is coming. I don’t think it was really civil, but OK.
That’s OK for your neighborhood maybe, not mine.

While I pray there is no more violence in England and there is no violence here, there is one thing these two may be forgetting. We have guns, England does not. The bad thing is if violence is brought against the citizens by rioters, people have the right to protect themselves and they will, with deadly consequences.

No, he won’t do it under The One. He’ll bide his time community organizing.

Self-defense is cowardly, Kook? Preparedness is cowardly? Why don’t you suck a bag of nuts?

Yes, a real man offers his throat to the wolf. It’s the brave thing to do.

Tax cuts, by definition, don’t redistribute anything. They don’t take, therefore they cannot redistribute.

I’ll treat you with dignity if you produce. If you’re just sucking on my teat, all you’ll get is my disgust.

Dignity is earned, bitches.

The only civil unrest planned by progressives involves voting the republicans out of office, because they place politics over country.

It will be about revenge, hatred, and then we all go under.

We? You got a mouse in your pocket, Cornell?

It would thin the herd. Darwin, FTW!

Oh yea, I forgot, that’s when all the forward thinking gun owners break out their multi-round magazines and hunker on down in their bunker fending off the roving bands of undead and bartering their gold bars and last days seeds.

Allow me this one moment of profanity?

Do those fukker’s really believe they have this coming to them by way of a distorted social system, or, are they just criminals who will say anything to rationalize their behavior?

The one thing that really terrified the Roman Senate and aristocracy (other than Barbarians) was the “mob.”  The loutish citizenry.  We have pockets of “louts” here too.  Ouch!

Surely you can come up with something better than that.

I am not sure who “you two” are?  But, I am aware, all too aware of the events in Wisconsin as they are only a piece of a larger puzzle.

I coined a phrase a year ago: “What would Lenin do?”  This, is what Lenin would do and his progeny have been taught well.  Disrupt the system, wait or even incite the EVENT.  Then seize total power.  There are books and propaganda on the subject, ad nauseum.

For example, Governor Romney was hassled by “agents provateur” recently.  The children of Lenin, the acolytes of Obama engage in such behavior, unashamedly, unapolagetically.  When those “useful idiots” move on to violence, again, without pity or remorse for their actions.  Such are the tactics of the Socialist-Liberals, the spawn of Lenin.

Question:  Will the right succumb and fight back in kind?  If so, will that precipitate the Leninesque “event” I referred too?

I have seen members of the Right protest funerals, Abortion clinics, various right wing social issues.  However,  The Right does not desire the destruction of the American Philosophy.  Rather they/we seek to retain it, hence, we tend not be vulgar, profane and threatening.

Are you trying to make a humorous point?

In my assessment, “letting loose” would be: the rest of the citizenry coming out of their homes and pushing the vile, writhing tapeworms into the sewers to be washed away.

The great “silent majority” may have to stand fast, someday soon.  Hopefully, with a  competent and sympathetic Government in support.  NOT a Government that seems, all too often, to support the Bad Guys!

Smiley and West are two of the greatest practitioners of hate speech among the black elite in America. Put hoods and swastika armbands on them and you’ll see them for what they are. Thank god that, unlike Hitler, they don’t have an army to go with their rhetoric or it’d be lights out for white folks.

Separating intent from an ability to carry out that intent leaves us looking at them in a different light, as hapless clowns, just as Louis Farrakahn is Hitler without an army. Nevertheless, they teach race hatred towards whites and it should as no surprise that between their hateful rhetoric and rap music, black kids think it’s perfectly justified for them to commit crimes and loot stores because they live in an eternally unjust world that has it in for black folks.

Poor Nazis: they felt slighted by the world too and we all know the culture-wide sense of love that engendered and the results: a nation gone insane.

That has always been the issue of concern. Not that the masses would peaceably usher out the republicans at the polls, but whether after that happens, after 2012 brings the end of the world for conservatives, at the polls, but whether the losing side in the democratic process would accept the outcome. But I guarantee our guys got a handle on those militia boys.

You bet they can happen here. The pot has long been simmering.  And we will be far less “prepared” than the UK.  We are too preoccupied to think about it.  We are busy, “nation-building” elsewhere.  Right, BushDrunk??

Im ready to bring this racist country down..just say when. Sick of the racists and rich.

You cannot continue to have 1% hold all the wealth of a nation and all the political power too. In this system it is inevitable that the same people that have their arms ready are some day going to be a target of these uber wealthy eventually. The same Conservative and liberal factions that we all identify with are going to sell us all out to conserve their strangle hold of power. So why you all bicker among yourselves about whose theory of demise will be more prophetic, You might try to come up with some real solutions to actually preserve this Democracy. We have to find a way to play a game in which we all win, but the name calling and other bullshit has to stop. Weather it is a new system call Sociocapitalism I am for real solutions that gives the little guy a chance at upward mobility. Just my 2 cents If  I had the answers I’d share so we could fix this mess.
