And therefore a globalist shill who didn’t give a shit about you or America.

Globalist shilll - check.

I disagree on the latter, he did care about America, it was just an awfully abusive example of "care."

Possibly came off as more of a backhanded compliment than I had intended.  :-\

Or possibly not, I thought you made cogent points.

And while Bart did build off MV's parody songs he also added his own unique style. The few open threads I saw in Ellgab indicated his target audience was enthralled by the little animation sideshow. So there's that.

Point made.

Consider though that in his diminished physical and mental state that this may have been largely a misplaced personal animus swipe at Trump.

As evidence I cite:

Repeal and replace the massive federal health-care law

But in the end, McCain said the election is about a choice. While he said he'll fight to repeal and replace the massive federal health-care law and rein in pork-barrel spending, he predicted Glassman would push for another big-spending stimulus package, protect the unpopular health-care law and support the "corrupt practice of earmarks."
"He's clearly out of step with Arizona and with the people of this state," McCain said.

As I said, he's been on both sides of the issue for some goodly time.

Oh come on, it's a few posts above this one:

QuoteThere never would’ve been McCain care. Thus no 8 year economic slowdown thanks to Obamacare. There wouldn’t have been a new race war. Nor the numerous other Obama crap that’s been discussed.

No ones argueing weather globalists exist or they are bad for not only the people of our country, but the people of every country. Central planing is bad for everyone but those doing the planning.

Those are points "worth remembering". Now feel free to pick them apart and do as you will.  :-\

Yes, I knew things were changing, but I never thought in my lifetime, to see it happen to this degree. I can only hope to live to see the 'rubber band snap back' effect that is long overdue.
I never imagined it would end up where it is now either. But your ardor for the inevitable pendular snap back may be quelled by the sheer savagery and collateral damage of it. This species has NOT evolved past our innate barbarism, we've simply euphamised it. :(

So now you've moved on to an interpretation that the "United States of America" is the same country that it was in 1607, and he's telling these kids to... what? Rebel against The Crown?

Did I even say that? I'm doing my best to guess how Webb's soliloquy finale might have been designed. As neither of us were there to see the script approved nor crafted it remains open to interpretation. He may have ball-parked a number or he may have been embedding meaning those "kids" would never have the wit to catch. We just can not know.

Sorry but as bad as McCain was, and don’t get me started on the 2008 republican primaries, because I don’t know any republicans who wanted McCain, despite that, he was miles apart from Obama, and always will be.

Isn't a large part of that generational in nature? And also coming from a military familial heritage?

Yes and also no:

Matching funds for seniors citizens’ prescription drugs

We’re asking senior citizens now to make a choice between their health and their income. They make too much money to be on Medicare and not enough to pay for their prescription drugs. We’ve got to devise a program that when a senior spends a certain part of their income on these prescription drugs that we’ll have a state and federal match for it. We can’t do that to our senior citizens.

Expand health insurance to 11 million uninsured children

[We have] 11 million children without health insurance. We’ve got to expand the children’s health insurance program. And I’ll tell you what: I have the guts to take the money where it shouldn’t be spent in Washington and put it where it should be spent, including 10 percent of the surplus.

Health care is a responsibility: just make it available

Q: Is health care in America a privilege, a right, or a responsibility?
McCAIN: I think it’s a responsibility, in this respect, in that we should have available and affordable health care to every American citizen, to every family member. And with the plan that I have, that will do that. But government mandates I’m always a little nervous about. But it is certainly my responsibility. It is certainly small-business people and others, and they understand that responsibility. American citizens understand that. Employers understand that.
OBAMA: Well, I think it should be a right for every American. In a country as wealthy as ours, for us to have people who are going bankrupt because they can’t pay their medical bills--for my mother to die of cancer at the age of 53 and have to spend the last months of her life in the hospital room arguing with insurance companies--there’s something fundamentally wrong about that.
Source: 2008 second presidential debate against Barack Obama , Oct 7, 2008



..and if you wade through the rest of his public statements you'll see he had both sides of this issue a number of times, albeit he was more in the camp of not getting big gubmint as the gatekeeper...except those times when he was OK with that:

AMEN!

QuoteLet us know when something new happens with globalism. It really needs its own thread. ;)

Maybe not so much "new" as "recent/ongoing" perhaps...

Shall we start with Soros' latest Honduran (now fully armed) caravan?

https://thepoliticalinsider.com/second-caravan-armed-guns-explosives/
A second caravan of migrants has broken through to Mexico having crossed a river from Guatemala, and authorities report that some of them are armed with explosives and other weapons.

The Associated Press, via Daily Mail, reports that the mob has been much more unruly than the first, with some allegedly carrying weapons and firebombs made from improvised soft-drink bottles and gasoline.

The group has seemingly upgraded their arsenal, having used rocks and sticks against Mexican police over the weekend.

That's no reason we can't start executing people for it.

As long as it resolves to:

https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/2381#
Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States.

So who thinks we lack the balls to do more than imprison and fine?

I interpret the reference to the 1500s to mean the colonization and exploration of the continent as a build up to the foundation of the United States of America.

Apparently, I may be the only one who see it this way. I guess I don't expect an expert executive summary of North American history from one of Joe Friday's diatribes.

Propaganda is nothing new and was employed way before the advent of television. The only difference I see today, other than the destructive/progressive ideology, is that they do not seem to try and hide it anymore.

Good answers, perhaps Webb was short-forming his answer to account for the full arc of American history dating back to Columbus' bogus 1492 Hispanola citation.

But your larger point is taken, propaganda pre-dates modern "entertainment" by the full spectrum of human nature:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_propaganda
Primitive forms of propaganda have been a human activity as far back as reliable recorded evidence exists. The Behistun Inscription (c. 515 BC) detailing the rise of Darius I to the Persian throne is viewed by most historians as an early example of propaganda.[1] The Arthashastra written by Chanakya (c. 350 â€" 283 BC), a professor of political science at Takshashila University and a prime minister of the Maurya Empire in ancient India, discusses propaganda in detail, such as how to spread propaganda and how to apply it in warfare. His student Chandragupta Maurya (c. 340 â€" 293 BC), founder of the Maurya Empire, employed these methods during his rise to power.[2] The writings of Romans such as Livy (c. 59 BC â€" 17 AD) are considered masterpieces of pro-Roman propaganda.[citation needed] The most well-known originator of Roman historiography was Quintus Fabius Pictor (3rd century BCE). His style of writing history defending the Roman state actions and using propaganda heavily eventually became a defining characteristic of Roman historiography.

In fact one could easily make the leap that early cave art was propagandist in nature. Think turf wars and hominid dominance and developmental strife.

That said, is the transparency of propaganda any greater today than in the days of say, the "yellow kid"?



Or is it simply the ubiquity, concentration, and more importantly the velocity of it?

I obviously interpreted this video differently. I was not put off by the 400 year reference because it was part of our country's history prior to the Revolution when we went from 'United Colonies' to 'United States'. Enough American colonists decided they wanted change and did want they had to to bring that about.

Hang on a minute, colonists, that would be an earliest date of 1607-1620...so this would have to be an episode of Dragnet from 2007...not 1967...???


QuotePerhaps I am missing some hidden message. Are you saying that this is an example of Operation Mockingbird?

Why are so many of your postings relating to other borders but, more importantly, not openable in normal things but want to open up new windows, run scripts, 'save only' before opening, etc? I'm not accusing you, since my, likely already compromised, devices could, actually, be alerting me to something 'they' don't want me to see! But why not jpg, on an open-hosting site, embedded uploaded pics, or links to, somewhat, legit news sources that can be "looked at" before opening? Not only you and I suspect some is just my computer but still that one seems like an article or video so post the actual link to it. (With caveats if your are concerned about sites, bots, or opening programs like pdfs etc as I try to do.) Not that I'm good on this either. But we can't look at your stuff in many cases!
