War is ugly. Political war against the swamp, while accepting their one-sided rules of engagement, is exponential hell. In order to gain victory, you have to be prepared to advance into the fire at all costs. Andrew Breitbart, Donald Trump and apparently Dinesh D’Souza understand this modern political truth.
In the final analysis this approach is the essential element of ‘Cold Anger’:
The Democrats and UniParty Republicans will cede no ground. There is only one majority political ideology within Washington DC, and it is based on financial interest. Their rules of engagement are entirely self-serving. They will fight against any entity, for any reason, on any issue, even reversing their own individual policy positions, if they view that entity as an existential risk to their power structure and decades-long financial constructs.
For those who live within the institutions, nothing is out-of-bounds; therefore, in order to defeat the systemic and institutional rot, we must fight as an insurgent opposition.
It may be unsettling for most; after all, we-the-people have never sought confrontation for the sake of itself. However, confrontation is an outcome of a battered electorate finally saying ‘No More’.
The political pendulum has never, in the history of humanity, stayed on one side of a swing. Likewise, the resulting backlash is always, always, directly proportionate to how far off skew it was taken before corrective action was engaged.
President Trump was/is our corrective political MOAB. There is no longer a retreat position possible. Those who oppose the restoration of our Republic have gone all-in. Their terms are to remove the threat. He and We are the threat.
It’s all fun and games until we start hanging muther fxckers. Which is exactly what should happen. And would happen except we are all pussies.
I seriously like the phrase “cold anger” because that is what I have. Today, when Busby jumped into the race, I thought I would just drive off the road. The swamp will definitely stop at nothing to keep the Senate from having another conservative. The dems and repugs want Doug Jones and that is where my cold anger comes in. People here in Alabama are willing to throw it all away just so Roy Moore doesn’t win. I don’t get it and it hurts me to the core. Two weeks from tomorrow we will vote. Please pray
It all reminds me of the time I refused to let another driver cheat their way to the head of the lane in order to zoom ahead of those waiting their turn. I saw the driver moving up on my left side, so I moved as far left as I could. They continued to move left as if to pass me. That’s when I moved further onto shoulder. I made the other driver move into the gravel next to the shoulder and they finally got the message that they weren’t going to elbow their way through. I wasn’t enraged, I wasn’t even angry — I was just tired of giving ground to people who think they are specialer and more entitled than me.
So just grit your teeth, hitch your britches — take the high road but give no ground. No more Mr. Nice Guy taking it in the teeth. We’re winning.
Luis Gutierrez IL representative for illegals announcing he will not seek re-election.
Must be a naughty list floating around.
He’s taking on the mob.
His woman stands by him.
His enemies’ stories are crumbling
I call that an innocent man fighting the swamp
Die swamp, and all your fell inhabitants
I am with Dinesh D’Souza.
McCONnell and the establishment republicans who have created this scenario by first bankrolling and supporting Strange, now the unfounded attacks on Moore, should be pounded senseless at the polls for the country club swamp manipulators they are.
McCONnell has become a vengeful prick with no leadership qualities (he’s a divider).
Alabama, don’t fold like Mississippi did when Cochran was ushered in by McCONnell’s despicable political power push.
You are better than that.
Send Roy a few bucks, I did.
Tonight just keeps getting better…Keith Olbermann announcing he’s retiring from political commentary in all political venues. 🤡😱
AA,
You’re a PAL. So don’t make me tell you why that was really freaken stupid. That battle was not worth winning.
…and speaking of D’Souza: In the Q&A at the University of Washington a few weeks ago, someone asked him why Liberals/Progtards have a hard time accepting facts, and D’Souza said something that I’ve been trying to articulate (unsuccessfully). He talked about Liberalism being more than political; that it more like belonging to a club that embraces things like yoga. It allows for the expression of all kinds of nutty stuff. I’m not doing D’Souza justice. Watch the Q&A part of the speech. It’s pretty dang funny.
Brad, AA, I’m the same way. Traffic bastards drive me nuts, I might give them a half inch, but they don’t get any more than that. It’s possible I’ve been viewed as a traffic bastard but I have important things to do.
God will see Roy across the finish line.
BELIEVE ME.
BB — Nah. It was a while ago before people started shooting up the place over parking spaces. If I’d been worried, I wouldn’t have done it. But, you know, sometimes you just have to take a risk when you’ve had enough, right? People like that count on no confrontation. They didn’t even try to catch up to me to give me the finger. They knew what they were doing was wrong.
Oh, BB, yeah. Today I wouldn’t do something like that. I’m pretty relaxed in traffic and I drive very defensively. Too many weirdos looking for a fight these days.
But I guess my point is that we don’t necessarily have to get bent out of shape to hold our ground. Anyone who has raised children know they will ratchet up the irritation factor every time doing so gets them what they want.
Cato — Every Trump contingent in every state is in possession of the template! It seems to go without saying, but the worst thing that could have happened to the Uniparty is that Trump won. Now it’s just a matter of applying the Trump strategy (not really so much a strategy as the natural desires of voters). It’s the precedent we needed so badly — kind of like breaking the 4 minute mile.
Let’s make Dec 12th the new Nov. 8th!
Joe6pak/AA,
Go pay you $110.00 and get your CCW’s and blend. Getting into a pissing match with some asshole in a steel cage is a zero sum game. Let them go. Just sayen.
‘Bama needs to get the vote out for Moore. I hope he wins and packs it in their asses.
BB — It was just an analogy! LOL! I’m not a road warrior! Just how fierce can a older woman in a mommyvan be? haha! At the time this happened I was half my current age and driving a car no one would have wanted to hit. You’re too funny! 🙂
an older woman
@AA
>>Just how fierce can a older woman in a mommyvan be? <<
If Mommy has the kids in the van, I'd sooner wrestle a vicious grizzly bear protecting her cubs.
If she menopausal…..Oh….. I don't want to even think about the carnage and dismemberment. Gruesome.
Don't mess with Mommy !
Lots of good things happening, good news nearly every day but I’m worried the brakes will be put on after the upcoming election by the foot dragging fools in office now. There is a ton to get done and time isn’t on our side.

Not all.
(What’s that deplorable canard about Islam? “The difference between a moderate and extremist Muslim, is that a moderate only wants an extremist to behead you.”)
Too few not-Muslims are even moderates. Yet. (As you’ll notice from other comments, after.)

That is what is required (not merely “all that is required” — but “what is required”) to be Emperor of a republic.
