Fowler: This is what the faces of hatred look like – Amarillo.com
CARL FOWLER| Amarillo Globe-News
Prior to the riot in the nations capitol, I listened to a speech from the great unifier, Joe Biden, in which he regurgitated the Democrats (Socialists) mantra of the past four years concerning Donald Trump, even, once more,accusing Trump of Russian collusion.
His speech continued on that theme as if the election were still ongoing and he had not been certified the winner. Eventually, he got around to stating that he wanted to unify the country.Such blatant hypocrisy is evident to everyone except Washington D.C. Socialists.
The Washington Socialists cannot get over their obsession with Trump.The Capitol riot played right into their playbook:destroy Donald Trump so that he can no longer pose a threat to the Socialists agenda.Thus, the second impeachment.
I have seldom in my lifetime (which is now a considerable number of years) seen such absolute hatred as in the faces of the Washington Socialists, especially in the face of Nancy Pelosi when Donald Trump is mentioned.Hatred literally drips from her face when she mentions Trump as evident in the distortion of her facial features when she speaks of him.Her unprecedented action during the last State of the Union speech by Trump, that of ripping a copy of his speech into shreds before a national audience, graphically reveals her hatred.In my view, Pelosi is the deranged one and should herself be subject to impeachment.
During the arguments in the House of Representatives leading up to the second impeachment (kangaroo trial), the House Socialists repeatedly stated that Donald Trump is a now and continuing threat to democracy and to the Constitution.Thus, the impeachment was necessary in order to preserve democracy and the Constitution. What rich irony and hypocrisy!The Socialists are the ones attempting to rip the Constitution into shreds, the ones who are attempting to squelch free speech by getting rid of the First Amendment.Their war is against religion, as evidenced by Socialists governors and mayors banning attendance to churches but allowing dens of iniquity to thrive. (Im being sarcastic here, but you get my meaning.)
Concerning freedom of speech, the Socialists have no problem with Facebook, Twitter, etc., barring conservative viewpoints from their websites.After all,such actions benefit the Socialists.The Socialists constantly attack conservative media and conservative personalities, such as Sean Hannity and Tucker Carlson, in an attempt to silence their seditious comments.I subscribed to Facebook when it first began, but I use it only to respond when my e-mail tells me that I have a Facebook message from a friend or relative. My view is that my business is my business.Besides, Im not interested in what someone ate for dinner.As for Twitter, so far as I know, thats bird talk.
I do not defend the rioting in the Capitol.The folks who breached the doors and windows of that symbol of democracy demonstrated everything that conservatism is not. I regret that a relative few, in light of a crowd of forty-five thousand, took it upon themselves to invade, deface, and give ammunition to our enemies who gloat upon the resulting chaos.
At the same time, a point that has been made over and over by conservatives and Republicans, the chaos caused by the rioting and destruction by the anarchists during the past several months and ignored by the Socialists, has contributed to the frustration of law- abiding citizens who see their cities and communities wrecked by those who proclaim themselves to be peaceful protestors.What did the Washington Socialists do about the destruction in our cities? Nancy Pelosi said she was not interested in statues.
Jerry Nadler said that the burning of buildings, the looting, the rioting taking place in cities were all a myth even as videos showed the opposite.The principal message from the Socialists is that the half of Americans who oppose Washington socialism are too stupid to see the truth.The truth is that truth is not a part of the Socialists agenda.
Donald Trump, through frustration and anger at the constant attacks by the Socialists during his term in office and who is convinced that the Socialists skewed the election in their favor, has gone beyond the pale with his rhetoric.But, who among you reading this could have withstood the constant barrage of hatred demonstrated toward him by the Socialists during the last four years? So far as fraud is concerned, if I were a judge, I would not want to be the one who contributed to reversing an election.The best way to avoid this is to refuse to hear the evidence.
The Socialists are deathly afraid of Donald Trump.He is the one who thwarted their plans to transform America by defeating Hillary.They do not want the same result in 2024.
Their answer: Hate Trump! Destroy Trump!DestroyAmerica!
