NYT’s Friedman calls for the violent removal of Trump

Posted on by

Thomas Friedman NYTI wouldn’t have believed had I not seen the words myself.

Thomas Friedman, op-ed columnist for the New York Times, cleverly called for the outright assassination of presidential candidate Donald Trump in his Tuesday, August 9th article entitled “Trump’s Wink Wink to Second Amendment People.”

Friedman couches the true meaning of his article in the crafty guise of a response about Hillary Clinton as the victim of Trump when, in truth, the real intent is revealed in his final paragraph:

People are playing with fire here, and there is no bigger flamethrower than Donald Trump. Forget politics; he is a disgusting human being. His children should be ashamed of him. I only pray that he is not simply defeated, but that he loses all 50 states so that the message goes out across the land — unambiguously, loud and clear: The likes of you should never come this way again.

There can only be one interpretation of that last sentence — ironic, isn’t it, “last sentence”? — “the likes of you should never come this way again.”

That is the outright violent removal or total elimination, possibly by assassination, of Donald Trump.

And the US media insists that Leftists aren’t violent?

Thomas Friedman: the proper response to the Boston Marathon bombing is a carbon tax

Posted on by

Boston BombingEh, wot?

Sometimes you just have to think that Leftists are filled with innocent April 1st deception and overall jollity.

Except that Leftists wouldn’t recognize general humor if it walked up and put a nailgun into their heads.

Thomas Friedman, columnist for the New York Times, wrote this past Sunday:

UNTIL we fully understand what turned two brothers who allegedly perpetrated the Boston Marathon bombings into murderers, it is hard to make any policy recommendation other than this: We need to redouble our efforts to make America stronger and healthier so it remains a vibrant counterexample to whatever bigoted ideology may have gripped these young men.

With so many societies around the world being torn apart, especially in the Middle East, it is vital that America survives and flourishes as a beacon of pluralism.

Rebuilding our strength has to start with healing our economy.

So what to do?  We need a more “radical center” — one much more willing to suggest radically new ideas to raise revenues, not the “split-the-difference-between-the-same-old-options center.” And the best place to start is with a carbon tax.

So, when you kill people in Boston, when you kill cops who respond to the threat, the logical response to this is a tax.

All of those who think this is insane, please raise your hands.
