Jay Carney and wife's photoshopped library fiasco

[Ame®icano]

So, here is disputed image...

Closer look to the posters...

Doesn't make him a communist any more than collectors of Nazi paraphernalia are Nazis.

Wow, did you really post that?

I know right!!
Thats like me hanging obama posters.

 

[koshergrl]

Actually, those are kind of cool. I'd be tempted to hang those in my study...

We've discussed those in another thread. They're quite collectible, up to a couple of thousand each. One was a poster for recruits for the Russian civil war, the other was celebrating women working in manufacturing during WWII, ala' Rosie the Riveter.

Carney started his career in Russia and was a fervent student of it's history.

Doesn't make him a communist any more than collectors of Nazi paraphernalia are Nazis.

Regardless, if he was a commie, I seriously doubt he'd post proof on his living room walls.

LOL...let me get this straight, if Jay Carney had Nazi propaganda posters on his kitchen walls, you'd be totally cool with that?

I call bullshit.

Progressives don't have any problem with communism OR nazism...or rather, they have no problem with the aspects of nazism that led to atrocious human rights violations.

The ONLY thing they have against Nazis here is their anti-black politics They could give a shit about the rest of it...in fact, they agree with the basic tenets of nazism.

Ever hear of Ayn Rand?

I'd take this one instead:

This is the one I want...

Yea, I wonder where that tolerance is when southerners display their Confederate flags. They are always accused of racism because of a flag that has other meanings, yet libs can post radical shit and it's just an interest in collectibles. Okay.

You obviously don't understand the collectibles market. A confederate flag c 1861-65 in good condition would be worth over 100k. One doesn't need to be a racist, nazi, or commie to appreciate that.

Of course Bubba with his ten buck flag bought at the Army - navy store flying off the back of his pickup is a different story.

People have interests and buy what they can afford. The libs wouldn't be any kinder to those displaying an antique Confederate flag than they are to those buying cheaper ones. It's because the leftwing nuts arbitrarily declared that all southern people are "Bubbas" and are racist for flying the flags. The leftwing kooks are wrong and need to understand that some people have pride in the south for other reasons than past slavery. I realize that many Dems are still trying to hide their own racism by attacking and mislabeling other people, but it won't help.

Just when you think a thread can't get dumber.

 

[Howey]

This just gets better and better.

So as long as Bubba spends 100K on his flag, you support his ownership and display of said flag.

But an identical flag costing $10 is racist and demeaning.

Although I seriously doubt Bubba would ever use his Tea Party donations to buy a hundred thousand dollar collectible confederate flag, nor be able to afford one with his beer truck driving income; I'm fully confident the idiot would fly the expensive relic out of his pick up truck.

So I'll ask...what exactly is the difference between the symbolism of a $100,000 Confederate flag and an identical $10 Confederate flag?

$99,990

Now who's the dumbfuck?

Now...being serious.

You're a shallow person if you don't know why people collect, whether it be dolls, sculpture, antiques, cars, art, posters.

Why do they collect them? Value.

Naturally, someone can purchase something of interest to them, like the Civil War. Or Coca-Cola. Or Beanie Babies.

Others buy collectibles as investments.

Political art and artifacts are indicative of history, ours, theirs, good, bad.

If you can't understand that, I guess there's little help for your narrow mind.

Anyone else notice in the kitchen photo, that food is a heart attack waiting to happen? Look at all that starch!

The only problem is she's correct. Progressives were very well known supporters of dictators. They admired them for their strength. I am a liberal Democrat, and have been my whole life. I am not, nor will ever be a progressive.


•H. G. Wells, one of the most influential progressives of the 20th century, said in 1932 that progressives must become “liberal fascists” and “enlightened Nazis.” Regarding totalitarianism, he stated: “I have never been able to escape altogether from its relentless logic.” Calling for a “‘Phoenix Rebirth’ of Liberalism” under the umbrella of “Liberal Fascism,” Wells said: “I am asking for a Liberal Fascisti, for enlightened Nazis.”
•The poet Wallace Stevens pronounced himself “pro-Mussolini personally.”
•The eminent historian Charles Beard wrote of Mussolini’s efforts: “Beyond question, an amazing experiment is being made [in Italy], an experiment in reconciling individualism and socialism.”
•Muckraking journalists almost universally admired Mussolini. Lincoln Steffens, for one, said that Italian fascism made Western democracy, by comparison, look like a system run by “petty persons with petty purposes.” Mussolini, Steffens proclaimed reverently, had been “formed” by God “out of the rib of Italy.”
•McClure’s Magazine founder Samuel McClure, an important figure in the muckraking movement, described Italian fascism as “a great step forward and the first new ideal in government since the founding of the American Republic.”
•After having vistited Italy and interviewed Mussolini in 1926, the American humorist Will Rogers, who was informally dubbed “Ambassador-at-Large of the United States” by the National Press Club, said of the fascist dictator: “I’m pretty high on that bird.” “Dictator form of government is the greatest form of government,” Rogers wrote, “that is, if you have the right dictator.”
•Reporter Ida Tarbell was deeply impressed by Mussolini's attitudes regarding labor, affectionately dubbing him “a despot with a dimple.”
•NAACP co-founder W. E. B. DuBois saw National Socialism as a worthy model for economic organization. The establishment of the Nazi dictatorship in Germany, he wrote, had been “absolutely necessary to get the state in order.” In 1937 DuBois stated: “there is today, in some respects, more democracy in Germany than there has been in years past.”
•FDR adviser Rexford Guy Tugwell said of Italian fascism: “It's the cleanest, neatest, most efficiently operating piece of social machinery I've ever seen. It makes me envious.”
•New Republic editor George Soule, who avidly supported FDR, noted approvingly that the Roosevelt administration was “trying out the economics of fascism.”
•Playwright George Bernard Shaw hailed Stalin, Hitler, and Mussolini as the world’s great “progressive” leaders because they “did things,” unlike the leaders of those “putrefying corpses” called parliamentary democracies.

I'm so glad we stopped talking about a hypocritical bible thumping Congressman whose religious principles he used to get elected lasted less than 30 days in office and have moved on to more important matters like how many books are really on a White House employee's bookshelf!

Whew! I was worried people had their priorities screwed up until now.

 

[Politico]

I am not sure what is scarier. That you people think this is news or that it got this many pages long.

 

[LogikAndReazon]

There seriously cant be more then half a dozen folks who care about anything that mindless douche has to say or do....

Time is precious. There are bullets to hoard and staffers to hump. No time to read books.

But, but, but don't those pastries look so yummy you can spare just a few moments of books to whet that tongue of yours? And enjoy a cup of java? One must keep up their strength to turn all those pages.

Yeah, which is why the German government prosecutes people for owning Nazi memorabilia, you lying ****.

Is it your contention, then, that Ozzy Osborne is a Nazi?

 

[Politico]

Ozzie is barely self aware.

Yeah, cause that never happens when libtards get a rock up their ass talking about the Confederate Battle flag, missy pants.
