Essen wrong

July 18, 2017 by Guest Post

It’s time to call Marty Essen for what he is: a “leftist.” Marty’s recent writings in the Bitterroot Star smack of real hatred toward Republicans and/or conservatives!

 

After reading his rant about the Republican cult, I can’t help but suggest to Marty that he should consider whether conservatives can legitimately repeat some of the same type of things to him and other leftists as follows:

 

1. Mainstream media commentators on ABC, CBS, NBC, and MSNBC spew hypnotic hatred toward Trump and Fox News without being “fair and balanced”;

 

2. Leftists target already controlled Democrats who are therefore more susceptible to manipulation than free thinkers, and

 

3. Leftists have a brilliantly evil way to get their cult members to vote against themselves!

 

Now, let’s move on to Exhibit 1 and Exhibit 2 discussions. Marty’s suggestion that global warming is real, human caused, and deadly is merely a claim and not factual! He specified that many organizations agree on that issue. The reality is that the temperature statistics supporting that global warming agreement were falsely manipulated in order to justify that agreement – and that is factual! For Marty’s benefit, I will rephrase part of his cult definition as follows: A leftist cult rejects facts in favor of an alternate reality.

 

Plainly speaking, Exhibit 2 is just nonsense.

 

Thank God for all the free thinking conservatives who were wise enough to vote against lying Clinton! We will never know how wise that fateful decision was!

 

Although there is no simple solution for deprogramming the leftist cult, at least Trump and conservatives can undo much of the damage that Obama has inflicted on America!

 

Last, but not least, I will repeat all of Marty’s last sentence except for changing one obvious word as follows: Therefore, for the rest of us, vigorously supporting education is our best hope for eventually returning the Democrats to sanity.
