“The power of holding two contradictory beliefs in one’s mind simultaneously, and accepting both of them….To tell deliberate lies while genuinely believing in them, to forget any fact that has become inconvenient, and then, when it becomes necessary again, to draw it back from oblivion for just so long as it is needed, to deny the existence of objective reality and all the while to take account of the reality which one denies — all this is indispensably necessary. Even in using the word doublethink it is necessary to exercise doublethink. For by using the word one admits that one is tampering with reality; by a fresh act of doublethink one erases this knowledge; and so on indefinitely, with the lie always one leap ahead of the truth.”
— George Orwell, Nineteen Eighty-Four
A typical liberal drone.
“We’ve got problems in Washington now, and it’s serious,” Welch said. “The problem here is really a symptom of the new development that I haven’t seen since I’ve been in Washington, and that’s a breakdown of norms.
“Whatever your point of view is, whatever the law is, I think most of us know that what really guides our behavior is not whether we’re following the letter of the law or the rules of the road, it’s a common, shared sensibility about parameters and limits and expectations, and that is what’s under assault now: respect for institutions, respect for the rule of law, respect for the role of the press and the restraint in the use of political tactics.
Peter Welch has been Vermont’s Congressmen since 2007. During two Obama administrations the I.R.S. the F.B.I. the C.I.A. and the D.O.J.. were thoroughly corrupted . The I.R.S was weaponized to harass conservative groups trying to comply with tax regulations. Lois Lerner should be in jail but she but she escaped scot free.
The F.B.I. and C.I.A. became close to the American version of of the N.K.V.D. the sword and shield of the Communist Democrat party . They attempted to bring down a duly elected President on bogus evidence provided by the Clinton campaign. And Hillary Clinton, remember her illegal server and her involvement in the Uranium One. Then F.B.I. director James Comey gave her a pass then raided the home of the whistleblower in the latter. Now from the D.O J. we have“straight shooter” Robert Mueller taking Lavrentiy Beria to heart, “show me the man and I’ll find you the crime”.
After two years Robert Mueller has yet to find any evidence of any “Russian collusion” it should be apparent to anyone with half a brain that this witch hunt is nothing but a diversion to hid the crimes of the F.B.I., Hillary Clinton, all the way up to Obama himself.
And if anyone has been “colluding” with Russians and before the Soviets for decades it has been Democrats.
Apparently the assault on our “institutions” and the total disrespect for “the rule of law” during this time period was not any reason for concern for Congressman Welch. Why? You might ask. Because it was the institutions themselves doing the assaulting on President Donald Trump himself.
Today “Federal Laws” are being routinely ignored by State and local officials and actively impeding the enforcement of those laws by refusing to cooperate with federal I.C.E. agents.
So what was that again about the “rule of law” Peter?
Moving on…
Now we discover who the people Congressman Welch seems to care about the most.
Federal workers…
Welch said he found the effect on federal workers “very, very disturbing” because people were unable to pay for child care costs, rent or student loans.
“That’s real, and the idea that anybody in Washington, including the president, would be so cavalier about the human impact for people who are trying to make their way upsets me a lot,” Welch said.
Tell me Congressman Welch did you ever give a rats ass when in the middle of Obama’s eight years in office the unemployment rate was 14.7%. This of course included the “U6” Number which the media tried very hard not to mention during his administration. More people are earning paychecks today (from the private sector) then are not getting them from the government during this shutdown.
People working for government be it Federal or state have far more perks and benefits then anyone working in the private sector has. And when this shutdown is over all federal employees will be reimbursed for back wages. If Democrats really cared for the “hardships” these people are facing give Trump the money for the wall and get your darlings back to work. So save me your crocodile tears.
Nancy Pelosi could end the shutdown today if She wanted to.
He said the larger issue — and subject for debate — was immigration, not just the border wall by itself.
Hey Congressman Welch, can I just walk into your property or private office without your permission? I bet you would behave Just like your boss.
I also believe that you or someone in your office would immediately call SECURITY !! Yea, security for the party apparatchiks, but not for our country’s borders.
And what about the lives of thousands of people whose lives have been shattered, victims of crimes by illegal aliens. You don’t give a RATS ASS!
We have to start focusing on rural America and the middle-class challenges that are making it tough for people who are living with stagnant wages and rising expenses,” Welch said. “Those are structural issues in the economy that have to be addressed by Republicans, Democrats and independents. So, I want to get the shutdown behind us.
You must be referring to our State of Vermont where we have pay people a $10,000 incentive to move here.
Congressman Welch, in addition to being a master of “doublespeak” you are also member in good standing in groupthink . the New York Times Tom Friedman thinks exactly like you.
Republicans get racked over the coals when we don’t live up to our principles. Democrats never have that problem. They don’t have any to live up too.
