Speak Out: It’s said Alinsky didn’t write these:

Posted by DA Braswell on Mon, Apr 26, 2021, at 12:29 PM:

But it seems to be happening anyway:

1) Healthcare — Control healthcare and you control the people

2) Poverty — Increase the Poverty level as high as possible, poor people are easier to control and will not fight back if you are providing everything for them to live.

3) Debt — Increase the debt to an unsustainable level. That way you are able to increase taxes, and this will produce more poverty.

4) Gun Control — Remove the ability to defend themselves from the Government. That way you are able to create a police state.

5) Welfare — Take control of every aspect of their lives (Food, Housing, and Income).

6) Education — Take control of what people read and listen to — take control of what children learn in school.

7) Religion — Remove the belief in the God from the Government and schools.

8) Class Warfare — Divide the people into the wealthy and the poor. This will cause more discontent and it will be easier to take (Tax) the wealthy with the support of the poor.

    Oh good, Lettau is back, now he can show me where I said what he wrote.

    I think you are confused Lettau, Mr. Braswell doesn't sound like a Leftist Dimocrat to me.

    Be Kerful there Lettau. Don't forget, Alinsky was your lord and master, Obama's teacher.

    So Saul Alinsky was a Community Organizer, just like Obama.

    How wonderful is that?

  • Good grief! Think I authored these? What a d-bag personality you consistently seem to enjoy. Refer again to the #5 Mr Lettau. If you knew how to research you would find those 8 showed up attributed to Alinsky but proven false. My simple statement was they appear to be happening and that’s undeniable.

    “If a man is not a socialist by the time he is 20, he has no heart. If he is not a conservative by the time he is 40, he has no brain.”

  • It is something that he professes to have such great knowledge and then suddenly plays dum...maybe I have that backwards.

  • Mr. Braswell,

    Hopefully you're not becoming overly enamored with conservative SO negative commentary.

    My contribution is simply to provide factual information. An example is pointing out that the Trump big lie is in fact a big lie.

    If you consider that to be "professing great knowledge," that's your call, I call it common sense.

  • With all due respect, there are several things you "have backwards."

    Lettau: Every time you say this BS all I have to do in order to void it is to say that the Big Lie is sleeping in the White House basement and his VP is a nothing burger. LOL at you Lettau as always.

    "My contribution is simply to provide factual information. An example is pointing out that the Trump big lie is in fact a big lie."

    Lettau how can you be a truth detector when you cannot tell the difference between a lie and an opinion.

    You do understand that everyone has the right to an opinion..... don't you??

    And by the way, I am still waiting for those words you say I made in print. Failing to do so I am calling you a purveyor of [Ask Google, am not allowed to say it)..

  • When our one-term, twice impeached former President say the election was stolen, it's a lie, not an opinion.

  • He is entertaining if nothing else,wheels. I was taught to not give much credence to someone constantly tooting their own horn. That and the rule I can’t help breaking for him. Making light of those less fortunate.

    So now you have my opinion and I never had to quote you with a bunch of BS like I got from you claiming I said it, which you have failed to produce.

    Failed I said Lettau, you failed.

    In the future, when you report I said something, be ready to produce the evidence or get called out on it again.

    Kapeesh??

  • Mr. Braswell,

    Hopefully, I will be excused for not sufficiently acknowledging your superior intellect…

    But for some reason the statement “taught to not give much credence to someone constantly tooting their own horn” could easily be considered a subtle version of “tooting your own horn.”

    I suspect that you’ll defer if I express curiosity as to what you consider me “tooting my own horn.” And if you can’t come up with actual quotes, please don’t consider it “making light of those less fortunate.”

    But it seems to be happening anyway:

    1) Healthcare — Control healthcare and you control the people

    My Comment: Can you say Obamacare?

    2) Poverty — Increase the Poverty level as high as possible, poor people are easier to control and will not fight back if you are providing everything for them to live.

    My Comment: Our Welfare System Or so called "Entitlements" encourages poverty to avoid having to work for a living.

    3) Debt — Increase the debt to an unsustainable level. That way you are able to increase taxes, and this will produce more poverty.

    My Comment: Doubled under Obama, increased under Trump and well on it's way in the first hundred days of Biden.

    4) Gun Control — Remove the ability to defend themselves from the Government. That way you are able to create a police state.

    My Comment: Gun registration proposed under Biden along with other laws.

    5) Welfare — Take control of every aspect of their lives (Food, Housing, and Income).

    My Comment: We have been there for a long time already.

    6) Education — Take control of what people read and listen to — take control of what children learn in school.

    My Comment: The public school system.

    7) Religion — Remove the belief in the God from the Government and schools.

    My Comment: Prayer not allowed in the public schools and most recently the Dimocrats removed the words "So Help Me God" from the oath administered before testifying.

    8) Class Warfare — Divide the people into the wealthy and the poor. This will cause more discontent and it will be easier to take (Tax) the wealthy with the support of the poor.

    My Comment: This has been happening as long as I can remember. On Taxes, the EITC is one of the biggest miscsarriage of justice I can think of. Give tax refunds to people who never paid taxes.

    Aside from the wealth issue, Obama in his own right, was the greatest divider of the American People in the history of the Presidency. An Obama was a student of Saul Alinsky.

    Obama/Hillary/OSDO are students of Saul Alinsky and are trying to make his teachings into reality....only level headed Americans see these three traitors of freedom for what they represent.

  • Scrolling through some movie titles and found “Living in Oblivion” and thought it was a documentary about Biden’s first hundred days and his supporters. According to the Oscars reception perhaps they are figuring out no one cares just as an NBA player shouldn’t be commenting about something he knows nothing about. Puts da ball in da ho and close yours.
