0 Subject: Inclusiveness

Posted by: Baldwin
- [201045320] Mon, Nov 03, 2008, 22:02

What is it good for? Absolutely nothin.

Stalin was inclusive. His opponents got to be included in building the worker's paradise for a couple years or so while they were worked to death in Siberia building railroads and mining.

Michelle reveals some of the flavor of Obama's inclusiveness...
And Barack Obama will require you to work.

He is going to demand that you shed your cynicism, that you put down your division, that you come

out of your isolation, that you move out of your comfort zones, that you push yourselves to be

better, and that you engage.

Barack will never allow you to go back to your lives as usual - uninvolved, uninformed...
Just what have his associates had to say about the subject in the past?
the testimony of FBI informant Larry Grathwohl in the 1982 documentary No Place to Hide. -

I asked, "well what is going to happen to those people we can't reeducate, that are diehard capitalists?" and the reply was that they'd have to be eliminated.
And when I pursued this further, they estimated they would have to eliminate 25 million people in these reeducation centers.

And when I say "eliminate," I mean "kill."

Twenty-five million people.

I want you to imagine sitting in a room with 25 people, most of which have graduate degrees, from Columbia and other well-known educational centers, and hear them figuring out the logistics for the elimination of 25 million people.

And they were dead serious.
Ayers and Dohrn in their own words...

Why? Because what people say matters. Especially people who are as serious as a heart attack about hardcore marxism. They don't come any more hardcore than Bill Ayers and Obama is his creation.

Lots of strange things happening here in Minnesota. Ballots that were left in a car? Forgetting to call votes in? Hearing 406 instead of 506? Does sound kind of fishy to me, and I don't like either one of them(Franken or Coleman).

Baldwin, are you aware of any conservatives who have been blocked from advancement in the field of social work because of what the CSWE advocates? Any at all?

You realize that the goal of social work is to advance social justice, yes? I realize that the term "social justice" gives you the itches, but if someone decides to enter that field (or any number of others, such as peace studies or theology), they will be saturated in "liberal" ideology because the program is, at its core, a liberal one.

You can't abdicate the entire field of social justice and be surprised that liberals pick up your slack.

and back to post 112, from our very own Minister of Distortion.

looks like this country is leaning left...

Americans OK with Democrats in charge, poll suggests

In a CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey released Tuesday, 59 percent of those questioned think that Democratic control of both the executive and legislative branches will be good for the country, with 38 percent saying that such one-party control will be bad.

that, as your hero once said about himself, that, is a mandate.

oh yea, and so is this:

The poll also suggests that the public has a positive view of the Democratic Party, with 62 percent having a favorable opinion and 31 percent an unfavorable opinion.

That is not the case for the Republicans, with a majority, 54 percent, having an unfavorable view of the GOP and 38 percent holding a positive view.


so please. maybe your little minority wants to at least TRY to get along with the rest of the nation? i mean, it would be nice, and well, Christian of you to at least give this new government, and possible new way of doing things, a chance.

It is OK i am sure they will be upset soon enough...opinion is quite fickle. just looking at the poles they changed 9 points in less than month. there was also this mandate:

But that doesn't mean the public wants to see the GOP shut out of government. Seven out of eight want the Democrats to include Republican views in any legislation they pass.

Re 112: A more meaningful post about the Minnesota recount.

Replying one point at a time to 112:

1) There are no hanging chads to 'interpret' in Minnesota, at least not in the areas where Franken supporters are finding new votes for Franken. The ballots are spit right back at the voter if he refused to vote for the senate seat, so that they get a second chance to refuse to vote in that category, or to see their mistake if they really meant Franken.

I'm not sure where this little nugget is going, but there are all sorts of balloting methods not being used in Minnesota. What is actually happening rights now is that the machines are being audited (and because MN audits its machines, finding an error rate in place anyway, careful hand counts are the backup to errors). This means in a tight race like this, machine error can make a difference, which is why MN has a recount clause in her election laws.

2) It is statistical madness to believe that the only race where there is significant movement in one direction just happens to be the Coleman/Franken race.

Another strawman argument not being made by anyone. There hasn't been "significant" movement in the race at all. It just happens to be that the movement is in a tight race--a race in which nearly all pre-election polls was showing that this would be a tight race. And while the overall numbers happen to be moving toward Franken, there are a number of undervotes which will be for Coleman. None of the numbers are a huge surprise.

3) Deciding close races by cherry-picking the most liberal districts in the state is getting old.

I suppose if that is what is going on one might see that. But this is the third point in a row in which a "fact" is being disputed which isn't actually happening in MN. The recount will hand count all votes. Are you against this?

4) Acorn Now here's something which is getting old! I suppose you've got the shorthand down that you need not even try to make the same old fake argument anymore? Even though your linked article alludes to some kind of problem with ACORN, click through to see what the problem is. Go ahead. We'll wait.

In the meantime, it bears repeating:

There have been no verified cases of someone registered by ACORN casting a ballot who should not have have. None. Not one.

I predicted the stealing of senate seats and here it is happening. I'm so disgusted I can't bring myself to look at it any further atm.

One party needs an extra couple thousand votes beyond 50%. That is where this country is at.

You'll be so happy you won't remember to apologize to me for not believing me when I predicted it.

You can predict all you want. It doesn't mean that is what is happening here. This is an extremely tight race--so close that there is an automatic hand recount.

Given the fact of machine errors even in optical scanners, until that recount is in we can't say anything. In fact, we don't know for sure how many real votes each candidate has.

If Franken wins the election based upon a careful hand recount it isn't "stealing." It is "counting" and "adding up."

Until then, your "predictions" and projections masking as open fretting will have to stand the test of reality. I doubt it'll stand up, but since there appears to be no penalty to you for being wildly wrong you'll continue to throw up whatever you want to at the wall, pointing and screaming at us to look before it all slides to the floor in a heap.

How would you know if people using fake names had cast votes in states without strict ID laws?" says GOP Indiana Secretary of State Todd Rokita, who this year won a major Supreme Court case upholding his state's photo identification law. "It's almost impossible to detect and once the fraudulent voter leaves the precinct or casts an absentee ballot, that vote is thrown in with other secret ballots there's no way to trace it."

Anita MonCrief, an ACORN whistle-blower who worked for both it and its Project Vote registration affiliate from 2005 until early this year, agrees. "It's ludicrous to say that fake registrations can't become fraudulent votes," she told me. "I assure you that if you can get them on the rolls you can get them to vote, especially using absentee ballots." MonCrief, a 29-year old University of Alabama graduate who wanted to become part of the civil rights movement, worked as a strategic consultant for ACORN as well as a development associate with Project Vote and sat in on meetings with the national staffs of both groups. She has given me documents that back up many of her statements, including one that indicates that the goal of ACORN's New Mexico affiliate was that only 40 percent of its submitted registrations had to be valid.

MonCrief also told me that some ACORN affiliates had a conscious strategy of flooding voter registration offices with suspect last-minute forms in part to create confusion and chaos that would make it more likely suspect voters would be allowed to cast ballots by overworked officials.
...
There are already documented examples of fraudulent registrations being converted into fraudulent votes in Ohio, where ACORN and other groups were active. Darrell Nash, an ACORN registration worker, submitted an illegal form for himself and then cast a paper ballot during the state's "early voting" period.

Franklin County prosecutor Ron O'Brien also cracked down in the case of 13 out-of-state registrants who came to Ohio to register voters in Columbus for the group Vote From Home. The group all lived out of the same rented 1,175-square-foot house in Ohio, registered to vote and then most of them either cast early voting ballots or submitted applications for absentee ballots before leaving the state. They have agreed to have all of their ballots canceled in exchange for the prosecutor's decision not to file charges. - John Fund at Politico

{note: I am most certainly not saying there is voter fraud here. There may be, there may not be. Be either way, Baldwin, as bibA said, will continue to insist that there is simply because it is 'possible'. He'll not even attempt to prove it. Just claim its possible and therefore present.}

This has, of course, come up before. Vote From Home is not ACORN. Are you under the impression they are? Even if you are, the same prosecutor (Ron O'Brien) said elsewhere in the Columbus Dispatch article John Fund selectively quotes that the Vote from Home people, in his opinion, had no intention of deceiving anyone.

The rest of the article is long on allegations, short on specifics, and nicely mixes things up to the point where (even if you wanted to tell the different points going on, which you don't) you have to be very careful to discern.

By way of example, you point out Vote from Home, which had nothing at all to do with ACORN. None. Yet you cite it as though it somehow refutes my point about ACORN registering people and then those people casting votes who should not have.

The problem with ACORN, as has been pointed out to you time and time again, is that they have turned in fake registrations. As in: The names on the forms aren't real.

But, like much of your point about voter fraud, these fake people seem to be voting in droves in some otherworldly election where everything is unjustly taken from you.

And when confronted by the lack of evidence, you turn turtle and talk about the Kingdom of God, as though your intentional lies and smears will somehow get you a ticket in.

If Coleman were behind Franken in the voting, and there was a recount, Baldwin would be wearing his cute little skirt and waving his pom poms around cheering for Coleman's comeback.

and if Franken still won after a recount, Baldwin would claim the fix is in.

there is no other poster on this board who is as partisan as Baldwin is. he can claim he belongs to no political party, but he is as partisan as it gets, and there is simply no room for compromise on his radical agenda.

everything he posts is heresay, rumour, and lie. and when caught in one of his lies - as he often is - he'll back track with some sort of linkage where if A happens, OF COURSE B happsns, and thusly C follows.

i appreciate you Baldwin. i will give thanks for you in a couple weeks, because lord knows, without you, this board would be sane. i, for one, can appreciate the ramblings of a stark raving loon, because, it's funny.

The Castro, home of the lovers of tolerance and diversity.

not sure what in that video is wrong. you apparently had one group staging their own form of protest against homosexuality, and another group staging a counter-protest against the people who had played a role in denying them equality.

after reading some stuff on the internet, there may have been some attacks on the christians, but that came from one source, so it's hard to accept it as the gospel, so to speak. if there was violence, it's unacceptable.

it should be noted, however, that at least one of the members of the justice house of prayer (the christian group who came to protest, and was met with a much larger counter-protest), apprently has connections with a christian, anti-gay group called Joel's Law, that has not only called for the stoning of homosexuals, but has been IDed by the Southern Poverty Law Center as a potentially violent group that believes the U.S. "should be governed by conservative Christians and a conservative Christian interpretation of biblical law."

and well, Baldwin, considering how much weight you put on one person knowing another, even if it is through a passing glance, you should think twice about posting something from this group of "christians" who preach hate and intolerance.

more info can be found at this link...

so, very clearly, this video showed nothing that was really outlandish, and in fact, exposes the group you support as having connections to an organizations that advocates the murder of homosexuals.

Here's what's completely pathetic about Coulter's column.
The jist is about a Gitmo amputee who was released in 2004 and proceeded to mastermind the kidnapping of two Chinese engineers in Pakistan working on the Gomal Zam Dam project. Oh, and that American taxpayers had paid for his prosthetic leg.

None of this has anything to do with Obama. It was the Bush administration that approved his prosthesis at taxpayer expense and the Bush administration that approved his release from Gitmo.

It's baffling that anyone could take her seriously, much less elevate her to the status of spokesperson for any legitimate political movement.
