A Wart on the Body Politic – IOTW Report

A Wart on the Body Politic

Her name is Rachel Bitecofer and she has a new book out “Hit Them Where It Hurts: Save Democracy by Beating Republicans at Their Own Game.” Bitecofer has been making the rounds lately promoting her work with such gems of wisdom as the following.

We want to hit Republicans, even weekly. We sanitize it: “Republicans are stopping progress. So we can’t protect our kids at school.” How about: “Republicans are siding with killers over kids by giving them weapons of war,” right? We have to make it pop. And if you don’t make it pop, and you don’t make an image and in-the-gut message, it’s not going to be effective. And if it’s not effective, you’re not going to win. And if you don’t win, we’re not going to have Congressional majorities. And if we don’t have Congressional majorities at this point, who knows what happens to Latinos, to Muslims, to the press… We have to hold on to power at all costs. [emphasis added] So it really is time for people to get out of their comfort zones and do the hard work of winning the narrative.

On a Book TV appearance, Bitecofer (at the 8:00 mark) tells all democrats running for office that the number one thing they have to do is “Brand your opponent as an extremist.” She believes in “mass polarization” and that the “American public doesn’t know anything about politics.” She sees it as her job (as a holder of a Ph.D. in poli-sci and former academic) to instruct democrats on how to further polarize the electorate and demonize opponents to the Democrat Eliteocracy.

Perhaps even more revealing is Bitecofer’s Super PAC “Strike PAC” which purports will “Save Democracy” by “Electing Democrats”. I recommend viewing the two short campaign videos Strike PAC has posted on its website as prime examples of the lengths Bitecofer’s is willing to go to polarize the masses and demonize opponents.

  2. Funny, she looks exactly how I thought she would look. She is just an uglier version of Saul Alinsky, nothing new here.

    I do admire the urgency, the “go to the mattresses” attitude of doing what needs to be done. More of that on our side would be nice.

  3. I knew it. A fat pig that wants a man. But can’t get one. The day before here big TV appearance she had blue hair.
    Hey tubby. Shit that will get in your way of YOUR progress. The wide open border and the up coming terrorist attacks. Fuel prices. Food prices. and last but not least, keeping your job. I could go on.

  4. Wow. She’s a genuine Pigster, in the manner of Amy Schumer.

    I say we all chip in and buy her a T-Rex sized dildo. Maybe then she’ll shut her yap for a day or two.

  5. Dad had a shit brown pinto. Bought it new. I remember even as a small child the dashboard was cracked all to shit from exposure to Sol.

    And then the block cracked and he had the horrific drive until the gauge got high, and rest, and drive some more.

    And then he pulled the engine on the swing set and had a working engine back in by Sunday night. 2 days. That always floored me. Determination. Necessity.

    When I became a man my edict was every gainfully employed mofo in the house has two vehicles. I could not have done what Dad did. To this day I haven’t, except in a Beetle that just needed jugs and pistons.

    Even my Suburban took 3 days.

  6. What’s this “save Democracy” bullshit?
    Dems think they need to rig an election to save Democracy. They need to get an opponent off the ballot to save Democracy.

  7. Same script as 70 years ago, but it came from the Communist Party USA.
    Does any thing sound familiar.

    Members and front organizations must continually
    embarrass, discredit and degrade our critics.
    When obstructionists become too irritating
    label them as Fascist. Nazi or anti-Semitic.
    Constantly associate those who oppose us with
    those names which already have a bad smell.
    The association will, after enough repetition,
    It becomes fact in the public mind.

    The Communist Party USA’s directive to its members
    as described in the 1956 congressional report.

  8. “We have to make it pop.”

    This is exactly what makes it easy to identify as propaganda.

    You try too hard, ridiculously hard, lefty, and you cheat every chance you get.

    You’re despicable.

  9. She’s right, of course.
    She’s rabidly zealous in her self-righteous lust for power and money and maintaining the cabal that is destroying America.
    Though she’s only aping Josef Goebbels who understood that the Big Lie trumped (heh, heh) the truth every time when repeated ad nauseam.

    Propaganda MUST be combined with TERROR to work completely – and that is the only reality which will ensconce these maggots, and allow them to “hold on to power at all costs.”

    She doesn’t understand, or doesn’t care, that “holding on to power” isn’t the point of a free country. She doesn’t understand, or doesn’t care, that lying to “hold on to power” is anathematic to a “democracy.”

  10. Even Soros wouldn’t touch that with a ten foot pole. But I’m sure there are enough leftist fools to at least keep her in the comorbidity zone. I hope she’s up to date on her jabs.

  11. Another leftist fat bastard. She and her fellow commie blowhard comrades should be exiled to their favorite totalitarian country. There they can experience pure, unrestrained democracy – dictatorship, mob rule, no civil liberties or freedoms and starvation.
    Living off the fat of the land is for elites only in a communist system. Her fat a** would be toast.
