Not that it matters, but it sure it does. The war mentality greatly affects the prevailing ideals people support. It also costs the collective treasure and blood of the populace.
If you're really arguing war isn't a big issue, you're stupider than I thought.
"On the domestic front, no it is isn't, by definition."
Depends on how blind you wish to keep yourself from reality. The more you realize how tragic war is, the more it becomes an issue. For me its a fucking big issue.
" So, let 'em [the Democrats] go ahead with these tactics. We can't stop them anyway. We lost the election. But they're going to lose down the road. They will not control government forever, and when our turn comes, we are going to turn the power of government against the left. We are going to investigate them. We are going to hold public hearings. We are going to humiliate them. We're going to nationalize their unions. We're going to fund our groups for a change.
If they can give ACORN $4.1 billion then we can start paying our groups with federal money. We're going to do exactly to them what they have done to us. We're going to build and use the big government that they have built and turn it right against them. We are gonna turn the power of government against the left, and against Democrats in ways they cannot imagine. They will not know what hit them. They are using the law. They are using government to advance a cause that is un-American. . . . We are going to use the power that left is centralizing in the federal government to punish them, to break 'em up, and to make them pay for this. It's time for tit-for-tat. Nice guy playing by the rules when they don't, is over. It's time they got a taste of their own medicine, and it's going to happen, folks, because they're not going to hold power forever.
The left -- you people, you Democrats -- you are creating a monster that you will not be able to control forever [just as, I interject, George W. Bush did, which now the Democrats are exploiting]. You will ultimately regret what you are doing just like the media will ultimately regret its sacrifice of reason, its abandonment of its primary purpose. The day is coming when the media will actually investigate a Democrat and find some problems and nobody's going to believe them because they've lost all credibility. . . . We are taking names. We are taking names now. We are monitoring who on the left is going to deserve payback, and it's going to be hell. This much I promise you. This is just getting out of hand.
We're gonna come after the left's favorite corporations. We're going to come after your favorite political constituents. We're going to come after your favorite media outlets. You want to try the Fairness Doctrine? Fine. We'll impose it on network television. We'll impose it on newspapers. You want to try censorship? Fine! We will censor you when we get the control of the government back. We will reapportion districts using the Census to help conservatives. We're going to turn the power of government against the Democrats and the left and weaken and you break you into little pieces. Because, my friends, the day has passed when we can become passive and be passive about what they are doing. We will use the political and the legal system as they have and are, and we will use it to promote our party and to diminish theirs. We will use the power of government and legal system to promote our movement and our agenda, just as they are.
If they are going to bastardize the American system, if they are going to make this government large and powerful and intrusive, someday they're going to lose it. But they're going to lose it after having amassed all this power. We will control it, and we're going to turn it right back against them. We will build a massive army of patriots to counter ACORN. We will defund ACORN. We'll defund the labor unions, and we will fund our own people to go out and zap ACORN. And we will do everything we can to enhance anti-union employment. We will make sure that when companies lose money, that the people that get canned are union people. We're going to use the power of government just like the left is using the power of government. We're going to use the justice department.
We're going to go after big unions with the justice department. We're going to find all of the criminal activity. We are going to find all the lack of ethics. We are going to find every bit of corruption we can, and we're gonna sic the attorney general and the justice department and the US attorneys on you people just as you have been doing to the people of the right and the Republican Party for 50 years. And then we're going to find George Soros and other concentrations of left-wing power and wealth. And we're going to focus our attention on him, so that the American people will finally learn just who the hell paid for the bastardization of the United States, just who the hell paid for the destruction of the American way of life.
. . . We're going to become activists. We'll take back our government. "
These are not the words of a man I agree on much with.
Can you first put the quote in quotations and second put a -Rush Limbaugh at the end? I thought it was you writing!
Just joking. What, other than the war, do you disagree with Limbaugh about? You apparently think the democrats are leftists, even though they obviously not. Limbaugh thinks the same thing.

I love his sophistical defense: "words don't kill people". LOL. Of course words kill people. Republicans are boneheads for swallowing his swill.
Why did you pick a video that made him look rational?
Doesn't make him look irrational at all, Josh. He's an individual standing up to a mob.
That's my point. It doesn't make him look irrational. Why would you post a video making him look rational?
Because he is already your hero. You just don't know it yet.
...that's a stupid reason.
And Rush Limbaugh is a war-mongering fascist asshole.
You obviously still have no clue what I'm talking about.
I'm pretty sure you and Limbaugh agree on 99% of non-war issues. And, no, Limbaugh is probably not a fascist in the strict definition of the term.
Maybe. But the war issue is a pretty fucking big issue.
Not really. War doesn't really affect that much of the domestic populace.
Not that it matters, but it sure it does. The war mentality greatly affects the prevailing ideals people support. It also costs the collective treasure and blood of the populace.

"Not that it matters, but it sure it does. The war mentality greatly affects the prevailing ideals people support."
Which could also be the result of long-term nationalism.
"It also costs the collective treasure and blood of the populace."
True, but the populace doesn't visualize such costs so easily and such a cost still has indirect effect.

On the domestic front, no it is isn't, by definition.

He wants to turn the power of government against the left. I just want the government to have less power.
And protect private property while stopping all projects of the left. That is essentially the same as "using the government against the left".
I think he means to be more malicious than that.
"I think he means to be more malicious than that."
Same principle.
