Serious question for the Leftists! ... And whatever Chris believes he is.

[Kyle]

From years of working in a potentially semi-political environment, I have dealt with folks selected by both sides of the spectrum. Being polite, professional and courteous isn't difficult.

There have been folks I worked with that were "Exceptionally" religious or conservative and have put their personal politics aside and worked within the WH under Democrats, Capitol with Democrat Officials or a myriad of other locations dealing with appointees without any issue.

What is it about you, what drives that hatred, what prevents you from displaying a shred of patriotism, that you can not put your politics aside for a moment and be an American First?

This question could pertain to any political belief system. It is not just limited to Liberals, Leftists, and Progs. There are hard headed people on any side.

Except that..that is not what he is directly observing, and hence specifically asking about.

yeah and yet you avoid the question / observation


PROGRESSIVES cannot help themselves, with their morally superior attitude they don't play well with others .... it is THEIR WAY or NO WAY

What's your excuse?

Because he's pardoning people the Marxist don't like.

I cringe a little bit every time you call him "Mr Libertarian"

Any Obamanite speaking about "integrity" is as absurd as Jeffrey Dahmer speaking about the culinary arts.

It's fascinating how much "self-loathing" exists among the left.

Just another exposure of Leftists desire to destroy the Republic every way they can.

No such thing in the progtard world.

It's regarded as some sort of community organizing.

Sappy believes in the all powerful nanny state not civil rights

Like all Progtards he ignored the part that didn't support his slander.

It's in their Democrat nature. :shrug:

How kind of you to pick that example, becuase Trump, GW Bush, Reagan and other HAVE been hung in effigy by your brethren.

Don't recall any outrage about it from you or your marxist buddies.

But that's Steppenthrax for you.

Your leftist ilk described Bush as a chimp and Trump as an orangatan.

Politics makes for the best comedy!

Thats called an Obama.

Nothing other than give the left a win.

True, however through many administrations of both political parties at some time in power, I have noted it only seems to be the leftists that snub and deride in situations like are current in the news.

My interest is genuine in why politics cannot be set aside for a WH function, a ceremony at Arlington, a visit by the President or a WH official etc. As I said, I've known quite of few, myself included, that put aside those reservations for the "official" function and were fine with it.

The left seems incapable of this.

 

[Kyle]

What's your excuse?

Donald? Is that you?



P.S.

And to your point... I treat people exactly as they treat others. They deserve no less.

Although my point is that this very attitude has been in existence for quite a long time, I will agree that it has seemed to jump into high gear since Trump took office. I agree that politics should be set aside for functions and for the betterment of the nation and that is just not happening more now than ever. THAT is why we have so many problems in our country.

In my opinion, the only way to change this is with mandatory term limits at all levels.

Did you just indicate that when Kyle challenges or questions you he is being unamerican and unpatriotic?

Nancy Pelosi taught you to do that, didn't she?

So, what is your opinion on the subject OR are you just going to make useless hit-n-run comments as usual? :shrug:

Since the issue du joir is the Eagles visiting the White House, we'll use teams visiting the White house as an example.
Jim Langer, Bob Kuechenberg, and Manny Fernandez declined a visit from Obama to visit the White House due to their political beliefs:
Matt Birk declined a visit from Obama because he supported Planned Parenthood.
Tim Thomas declined his visit from Obama because he was a Tea Party member.
Tom Lehman declined an offer from Clinton because he felt Clinton was a "draft-dodging baby killer."
Dan Hampton didn't see Obama because he was "not a fan of the guy in the White House."

Actually... NO.

Chris was trying to say that Kyle was being hypocritical but, missed the point that Kyle was referring to our political leadership. Not the masses.

Like Kyle, I too wonder why leftists are so stereotypically foaming at the mouth with their hatred so often on display.

But he asked the question, so... ;-)

 

[Chris0nllyn]

No he wasn't. There's no mention of the leadership, only questions "for the leftists", and basing his opinion on some "folks he worked with". Only Democrats are capable of being bad people according to Kyle. This is evidenced by his quotes.

He then has the nerve to ask why people can't put aside their political differences and "be an American first"....this, after he created an entire thread about one political party (and even tossed me in their for good measure because me and my political beliefs are living in Kyle's head, rent free)

And, is it also your belief that this "stereotypical foaming at the mouth" does not come from conservatives, libertarians, etc. as well? Or, are you just trying to 'understand' the other side?

There is hatred, spewing, and 'foaming at the mouth' from all political sects. Proof is only a Google-fu away. True progress in this country will come when that hate can be set aside to do what is best for EVERYONE. Not just your political allies.

I recall a time when there was no "Antifa"...no "BLM"...for example. I certainly don't recall any militantly and openly left professors when I attended colleges. I only see that growing...certainly not receding...

I've watched "specific" examples of folks offered a fairly prestigious position, temp or perm, in differing administrations and watched every ROC/Libertarian folks accept regardless or almost every LOC/Socialist folks decline based solely on "who" held the office.
