talkpoliticsIn other news recently Herman Cain has provided a very surprising fact about Caiphas, one-time Kohen Gadol of the Jewish people, and Pontius Pilate, the bloodthirsty, brutish Roman procurator:
http://joemygod.blogspot.com/2011/10/herman-cain-liberals-killed-jesus.html
They were liberals who killed Jesus because he was a compassionate conservative. Never mind that the Roman Empire of the time was an autocratic monarchy of living gods who controlled armies only insofar as none of the generals who rebelled won, never mind that this was 20 centuries ago, many centuries before either liberalism or conservatism existed. This is sad you see because he's unwilling to admit that his mind is roaming to all the wrong places.
In any event, now that we have definitively shown that this isn't just the guy who gets his economic models from video games, but who takes his politics religiously, I might ask people this: if Pontius Pilate was a liberal, what was Genghis Khan? For that matter, we should all hate that damned Commie statist Sargon of Akkad who ruined cities forever by creating empires. I for one envy such heroic conservatives as Ugg the caveman who clubbed a Neanderthal over the head and took his stuff.

That's kinda much better than most of popular media-liberals said Tea Party are racists.
Re: That's kinda better than
Date: 19/10/11 22:35 (UTC)Let's review:
a) honest mistake that doesn't change the argument
b) deliberate misinformation to manipulate someone
Nice to know you think manipulating people is better than making an error.

"Honest mistake?" Are you kidding? This man explain us how we should produce electricity? He can't even keep numbers in his head.. OMG
Are you kidding?

I like the idea that corrupted powerful state -
(isn't that what Liberals doing raising the taxes and remove from citizents freedom to bear firearm) - was used to kill the man whose main idea was - all people are equal in rights?
I like the idea that liberalism is just never existed before it was formulated.
Thus according to you gravity shouldn't exist 20 centuries ago as well...
Since Isaac Newton was just invented it in 17th century.
Re: That's awesome!
Date: 19/10/11 22:37 (UTC)/sarcasm.
Also, you clearly have no understanding of political science, or it's difference to real science.
Re: That's awesome!
Date: 19/10/11 23:04 (UTC)Are you serious?
**Also, you clearly have no understanding of political science, or it's difference to real science.**
I know what does it means for liberals - put shit on your opponents, like liberals and Obama did with Tea Party.
Like media did with "irresponsible" republicans, not voting their way.
Like all they did with all even minor factual error of Michael Bachman / Bush ... whatever - put any Republican candidate here.
Now same with Herman Cain - "liberals" just put a stamps and shit on him, never-mind if he is right or not.
Re: That's awesome!
Date: 20/10/11 00:57 (UTC)The rest of your post is only confirming what I said.
Re: That's awesome!
Date: 20/10/11 01:46 (UTC)The Roman state has nothing to do with the conservative fapping-dream version of liberalism as the evil State, it was a military-theocratic autocracy with universalist ambitions. And that ain't modern-day liberalism or conservatism, no matter what the ideologues think both are.
"if Pontius Pilate was a liberal"
Date: 19/10/11 22:50 (UTC)Liberal is a f*cked term, basically meaning is perverted and put upside-down.
During last century, especially in the USA.
Conservatives now is just a word that binds people to pure liberal ideology, not to perverted one.
Nowadays he will be just another "liberal" speaking just like that:
"In other words, radical as it sounds, we need to counter the gridlock of our political institutions by making them a bit less democratic."
"I think we ought to suspend, perhaps, elections for Congress for two years and just tell them we won't hold it against them, whatever decisions they make, to just let them help this country recover. "
"UK Labour Party wants journalism licenses, will prohibit "journalism" by people who are "struck off" the register of licensed journalists"
Are they liberals at all?
Nope only they just called like that.
Are they liberals http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OeuGx8PplAo ??
Is she progressive http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IMjm4LxFa1c ?
The answer is - no, if you are talking about what real liberalism and progress is.
And answer is YES when we look, how liberal and progressive Obama and media supports those protesters.
Re: "if Pontius Pilate was a liberal"
Date: 20/10/11 01:49 (UTC)None of the points you raise address the completely anachronistic garbage that Herman Cain thinks matters to anyone in the 21st Century. Cain's idea is akin to drawing a mustache on the Mona Lisa and calling it art. That works in 4Chan but not in the wider world.
