Bang Zoom: A Real Conservative Speaks to the 2020 Democratic National Convention

As the Democrats kick off their 2020, closed-circuit convention, Bill Whittle gives you his planned speech to this (not) gathering of leading Progressive lights — kicking it off with a bang Zoom.

As the Democrats kick off their 2020, closed-circuit convention, Bill Whittle gives you his planned speech to this (not) gathering of leading Progressive lights — kicking it off with a bang Zoom. If Michelle Obama and John Kasich can pre-record their speeches, then why not someone who’s read the Constitution, believes it’s still the supreme law of the land, and actually cares about the lives of Black Americans.

I liked the meme that states that we can all vote in person because the masks will protect us…but we will need voter ID because we are wearing masks…checkmate!

OK, I just watched the Kasich speech here: https://youtu.be/g_jmm2NLLeQ.
He starts out with the undertone of blah blah blah TDS TDS that we might expect. Calling for unity and the end of partisanship. Around the 2:30 point in his 3:53 speech he says we need to return to when we were able to “respect one another as human beings”. Well, John, I don’t know what you think they, or even Joe himself, promised you in a Biden administration, but the Dems/progressives/leftists/anarchists are done respecting anyone as human, only as deplorable proles and scum to be led, subjected, or killed.
Honest partisanship is good – it helps keep everyone, well, honest. But the Pelosi, Schumer, AOC, BLM, et al. groups are not interested in our opinions, nor in compromising to address them and incorporate any conservative views so as to also achieve something with a more liberal flavor. No half a loaf for anyone anymore! We need to remain equally adamant in the counter direction – not sure anyone but Trump and his closest supporters are really up to the task, and even he/they may end up compromising for political appearance purposes.

I just saw this as a related/ relevant/ better statement: – Join us. Let us be united—in HATE and RESISTANCE—together. Https://www.thenewneo.com/2020/08/17/well-kamala-it-depends-on-what-the-meaning-of-the-word-debate-is/#comment-2511361

I find the presence of John Kasich speaking to the Dems a really sad outcome. He had the legislative experience in Congress and the executive experience as Ohio governor to speak authoritatively about fiscal conservatism, a topic near and dear to my interest. OK, that he was ignored personally and did not make the grade in 2016 is the way politics works, but that the fiscal integrity portion of his message was not given greater attention is going to bite us all (or out grandchildren) in the butt someday. Similar feelings about Paul Ryan, equally disappointing.

I did not watch last night so maybe this is off base, but …
Given all of the money that now doesn’t have to be spent on a real physical convention, I am surprised the Dems did not/ could not take that resource and construct a meaningful equivalent virtual version of a set of attendees. I don’t know how many people typically attend a real convention (8000, 15,000?) but it should not have been hard to identify, say, 20 people from each state’s delegation, times 50 states +, to create a 1000 screen/view montage that they could scan in or out of, or across, and focus on one or more smaller groups/ individuals for feedback and hilarity, enthusiasm, or outrage, as applicable. We have the technology. I suspect the Chinese already do something nearly equivalent when they track a group of their fellow citizens for conformity to CCP rules.
The separate individual participants would have to gin up their own localized enthusiasm as a super-Zoom meeting. But the right MC could help keep things energized. We are not talking about anything even as complicated as the Emmy Awards, for example. And each of the major speakers (Mrs. Obama?) could have made their presentation from a venue with maybe a dozen or so masked/ socially distanced audience members to help convey a wider level of group participation. But maybe that approach would have reduced the Dem’s message to “fear the Covid! Hide for your lives! Listen to your masters/betters in office! Believe all (liberal/leftist) experts!”

The subject convention is nothing but the means to deliver multiple word salads having no connection to reality: past, present, or future. The only reasonable response is “Do you want Ranch, Italian, or Oil and Vinegar with your salad?” There is no there, there. Sadly, even a word salad can be very damaging to the so called body politic.

Pathetic is the word and crowds are important to perception. Was watching a concert on YouTube by Nena (99 Luftballoons). Yep still rockin’ at her age.
Anyway, I clicked on the link cause it said the concert was filmed this past June. Now, I’ve watched videos of her tour in 2018, jam packed arenas, so I was interested to see what the June show would look like. Reverse angles of the crowd, all distancing and w/ reduced capacity… I’ll tell you, I’ve been to Tuesday night show by Head 17 at The Central in Hollywood and the crowds there looked less, well… pathetic than Nena’s show this summer.

Um, isn’t the solution to “X is trying to steal the election by messing with mail-in ballots” Don’t Vote by Mail, Vote in Person on the Day? Am I missing something?

“Vote in person” is a NECESSARY part of the solution, but not SUFFICIENT to be the whole solution. The rest of the solution would be to by-pass the postal service by establishing official collection centers not associated with the postal service to collect out-of-zip code ballots, have certified poll workers sort them by zip code, package all ballots by zip code in unmarked wrappers, and deliver those ballots by licensed and bonded government courier to an election center in each state for counting. It isn’t fast, and it is expensive, but it establishes a “chain of custody” that is more secure than the postal service, and as close to voting in person as one can get.

That might be a future ideal, but for this particular election, “Don’t Vote by Mail” should be the slogan. (Unfortunately there are some states where Vote by Mail is the only option.)

IMHO, “Don’t Vote By Mail” should be the slogan for EVERY election, THIS one in particular. The basic structure is already in place: absentee ballots already are available in every state, and every authorized polling location could accept both “local” and “out-of-town” ballots. Appropriating funds to pay for sorting, transporting, and delivering out-of-town ballots by certified government poll workers is feasible. Unlikely, given the current political atmosphere, but feasible. If the Congress were truly interested in a fair and secure election, every member would support such a plan.

Vote by mail offers a golden opportunity for vote harvesting wether you vote in person or not.

That sounds pretty serious, especially if party affiliation is somehow coded on the envelope’s exterior. But for our recent primary, such coding might make sense, to direct a given envelop to the compilers who are responsible for counting one side’s primary results. Not necessarily nefarious during a primary, but clearly so during a general election.
At https://www.thenewneo.com/2020/08/15/the-left-mail-in-voting-and-the-new-postofficegate-meme/ the commenters make the useful distinction between absentee voting, wherein the voter specifically requests a mail in ballot (a pull situation) and the other cases being discussed here where the government sends out ballots willy nilly to all, whether validly registered to vote or not (a push – and putsch promoting – situation).
