CPAC 2-fer. "One of the main themes here...that Democrats are taking about" & "election integrity"

The local RW radio station is broadcasting on site at CPAC. Morning and afternoon drive time. The morning host is John Reed - Richmond native who worked on George Allen’s Senate staff and has been around campaigns and the game for a while.

“Election integrity” is their new PC way of talking about “voter fraud”. That was in the 8:30 segment so I missed it. I must have missed this new phrase until now.

This is the one that had me cracking up:
“One of the main themes here this week is something the Democrats are talking about all across the country. They really aren’t even trying to hide it anymore....”

Gee! What ever could it be?

“Socialism”

I KNEW IT!!

He introduced his guest saying that Democrats used to use covert terms to not say socialism but now they don’t. His guest was a guy named Justin Hawkins from the Heartland Institute who has a book called “Socialism is Evil”. This guy went right into an elevator pitch - 167 million people killed by socialism in the last 100 years. That’s over 50 9/11’s! Socialism forces minorities, both religious and ideological, to succumb to the will of the majority”.

That’s all I got before the signal died in the parking garage at work.

See! It’s not THEM talking about socialism it’s THE DEMS, they are just victims succumbing to the will of the all mighty Democrats. Oh and the minorities thing
