Democrat State Rep Says Declaration of Independence is “Racist” –
HB 1035, a bill by Rep. Valarie Hodges that would have mandated that schoolchildren in Louisiana be taught the Declaration of Independence, sailed through the House Education Committee with a 6-2 vote. But Wednesday, when the bill reached the floor of the House, it had a different fate – amid a torrent of squabbling, Hodges returned the bill to the calendar and it’s likely finished for the session.
The Louisiana House of Representatives has 61 Republican members out of 105, and yet it was apparent no consensus for a cornerstone of basic civics in the state’s public schools was available to the bill’s supporters.
And yet, the bill did serve to provide a bit of civic education for the people of Louisiana – although perhaps not the lesson Rep. Hodges was looking for.What we found out was something many of us knew – namely, that Rep. Barbara Norton, a Democrat from Shreveport, isn’t a fan of our founding documents – and also is a barely sentient being.
James Carville Says 80% Of Democrats Are Politically Clueless ⋆ Doug Giles ⋆ #ClashDaily
James Carville, Democrat political consultant extraordinaire – and former Bill Clinton campaign manager, has astonishingly come out and said what all good Republicans have known for decades: Not only are most Democrats politically clueless; they’re easily manipulated by the puppet masters of their party as well. Wow. James Freaking Carville. Of all people. Here’s an excerpt, as quoted on Amazon.com:
“Ideologies aren’t all that important. What’s important is psychology.
The Democratic constituency is just like a herd of cows. All you have to do is lay out enough silage and they come running. That’s why I became an operative working with Democrats. With Democrats all you have to do is make a lot of noise, lay out the hay, and be ready to use the ole cattle prod in case a few want to bolt the herd.Eighty percent of the people who call themselves Democrats don’t have a clue as to political reality.
What amazes me is that you could take a group of people who are hard workers and convince them that they should support social programs that were the exact opposite of their own personal convictions. Put a little fear here and there and you can get people to vote any way you want.The voter is basically dumb and lazy. The reason I became a Democratic operative instead of a Republican was because there were more Democrats that didn’t have a clue than there were Republicans.
Truth is relative. Truth is what you can make the voter believe is the truth. If you’re smart enough, truth is what you make the voter think it is. That’s why I’m a Democrat. I can make the Democratic voters think whatever I want them to.”

AR154U☑ᵀʳᵘᵐᵖ 2016 • 3 days ago James Carville Says 80% Of Democrats Are Politically Clueless,… that’s generous, I’d say that number is much higher !!!

Surly Curmudgen • 6 months ago The vociferous denial from the left on this approaches nuclear detonation. They insist snake head Carville never said this. I heard him when he said this! If I remember correctly it was a late night talk show.

Enough’s Enough • a year ago Wow! Did Carville actually have a “Jonathan Gruber moment?”
-
4arrows • a year ago While I have no doubt that Carville and many other leading democrats may believe this, I find it hard to believe that he would actually admit it outside of a small inner circle. It would be nice if this had a reliable source listed. I did a quick search and found nothing from any recognizable source.
-
Demon Two-Six • a year ago Note that this is not being covered in liberal media…. Not that it would matter. Carville, knowing which side of the bread his butter rests on, would step out of the shadows again, issue a suitable “mea culpa” and explain why it is such a very good thing that the cattle enjoy the hay…
-
VictorLandry • a year ago Has anyone noticed how much Carville looks like Golum in The Lord of the Rings? Even some of the facial expressions are the same. One would think Golum was based on Carville.
-
mtman2 • a year ago I’ll have to make this one exception for Carville here and now !
I’ve always said- “if they’re a (D) and their lips are moving they’re lying”………not this time ~! -
David Lango • a year ago Goyim have trusting gullibility bubbling from their loving hearts. The Jewish owned media media says ‘collapse’ and we loosen a belt buckle and burp.

-
mtman2 Daniel Gray • a year ago Careful now Dan:
This is a great tool to keep for reposting, Jim may even switch parties.
His wife Mary Matalin is a Conservative class act and even the forehead
has said he’s a lucky man that she loves him and puts up with his party stand.
He doesn’t believe 1/2 the Lib-blab he puts out, he admits being a Dem for the money ~!-
-
mtman2 Daniel Gray • a year ago Having heard him over the years(and shocked at his (R) wife) seems he’s getting worked up to something with this admission, he just might be jumping parties.
Mary Matalin is one smart gal and he may just be doing it- because everything he said is true and can be used against him and the Dum-b party.
Or he’s senile now and can hide the truth of the lie he’s pretended all these years.
Either way this is friendly-fire that can be used over and over ~!-
Daniel Gray mtman2 • a year ago probably. the hildabeasts top moneyman for her campaign just quit because he says he cannot deal with her lies on the contributions and the emails and other questions swirling around her. Whoops there goes her money for her campaign. now whats she going to do?
-
mtman2 Daniel Gray • a year ago You know Dan I figure MAO’bama can’t be seen to not support the Clinton machine! And he has other replacements in mind and is working behind the scene to set up a take down that won’t directly go on him.
Meanwhile if she drops out she has to give up that campaign cash to her choice of a candidate, like that creep John Edwards had to. I think their just using her and honestly I don’t think she really wants it or the hassle getting there, maybe ~!-
Daniel Gray mtman2 • a year ago does anyone think for one second that with all her problems and troubles and Billy Boy being associated with a convicted pedophile, that she is going to actually be elected to anything?
-
mtman2 Daniel Gray • a year ago “Well”, the “CLINTON CHRONICLES” can be googled for the many mysterious deaths and ‘suicides’ from during the their governorship in Arkansas thru the WH. Now Benghazi etc.
They’ve gotten away with murder so what more can stop them(Clinton-Machine) ?
And still their supporters are like Alice the Goon following them no matter what!MAO’bama has done worse, as well as creating Benghazi; Christians are dying every single day directly because of his policies overseas and here as well. Baltimore is burning as WE speak.
People are now hardened to it all as- “just normal daily news” -and they figure on just sliding thru in the confusion of the fools, useful-idiots and lo-info sheeple.
Who’d of thought this level of stupidity would be the norm in the USA for so many.
The silence of wisdom in OUR town square is deafening in these socialist day’s.
The Founders would be ashamed and outraged as how low things have gotten ~!-
Daniel Gray mtman2 • a year ago yea, BUT when you start hanging around with a convicted child molester…the “ewwwwww” factor shoots up to an astoundingly high level and will cause anyone with children to back away from you. Just like the hildabeasts top moneyman who quit her campaign just recently
-
mtman2 Daniel Gray • a year ago Of course these scum for leadership are thieves and liars.
But still it is amazing that it just keeps going on like it does.Any person that keeps a (D) after their name and does nothing to stand against these criminals are guilty of treason and sedition. OUR Founders would have had them horse-whipped if not shot as an example of what happens to traitors to the Constitution and the American people ~!!
-
Daniel Gray mtman2 • a year ago exactly. maybe we should bring back public horsewhipping, and start with the Congress. Then maybe the rest would fall in line.

JimBob • a year ago ….and Carville should know. They’re very much clueless. I generally never mention the word democrat without including the word communist in the same sentence.
-
reggiec • a year ago Carville is correct and it seems that the left has wholeheartedly adopted the strategy explained below :
****
Snow is black quote
–Bertrand Russell, The Impact of Science on Society, 1951
…”I think the subject which will be of most
importance politically is mass psychology…. Its importance has been
enormously increased by the growth of modern methods of propaganda. Of these
the most influential is what is called ‘education.’ Religion plays a part,
though a diminishing one; the press, the cinema, and the radio play an
increasing part…. It may be hoped that in time anybody will be able to
persuade anybody of anything if he can catch the patient young and is provided
by the State with money and equipment.”“…The subject will make great strides when it is
taken up by scientists under a scientific dictatorship…. The social
psychologists of the future will have a number of classes of school children on
whom they will try different methods of producing an unshakable conviction that
snow is black (a metaphor). Various results will soon be arrived at. First,
that the influence of home is obstructive. Second, that not much can be done
unless indoctrination begins before the age of ten. Third, that verses set to
music and repeatedly intoned are very effective. Fourth, that the opinion that
snow is white must be held to show a morbid taste for eccentricity. But I
anticipate. It is for future scientists to make these maxims precise and
discover exactly how much it costs per head to make children believe that snow
is black, and how much less it would cost to make them believe it is dark
gray.”“…Although this science will be diligently studied,
it will be rigidly confined to the governing class. The populace will not be
allowed to know how its convictions were generated. WHEN THE TECHNIQUE HAS BEEN
PERFECTED, EVERY GOVERNMENT THAT HAS BEEN IN CHARGE OF EDUCATION FOR A
GENERATION WILL BE ABLE TO CONTROL ITS SUBJECTS SECURELY WITHOUT THE NEEDS OF ARMIES
OR POLICEMEN” (MY CAPS)Now think a little and see if
you can name areas where it is not snow but where other realities are being
manipulated by government, the left and powerful special interest groups. (
Common Core, anti-gun indoctrination, cyber manipulation, etc.) Why are we
allowing it to be done?The debasement of, traditional and classical knowledge,
individualism and independent thinking is necessary if a government is to
control its citizens and convince them to accept an ideology that a legitimate
education would cause them to reject.Our public schools no longer teach critical thinking; they
have replaced it with massive and continuous liberal indoctrination that denies
reality and logic.This debasement must be fought against at every turn.
Consider this statement by Vladimir Lenin.
“Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I
have sown will never be uprooted.” -
Sargeant_rock • a year ago Not only are Democrats politically clueless, they are mentally challenged… He is right, just put out enough freebees and they will come running… They are nothing but leeches on society and those who work for a living…
-
mtman2 Sargeant_rock • a year ago And also 90+% of (D’s) that do work are on some form of govmint origin- ie- tax money from true the producers in America that provide all the needs of life’s nuts and bolts.
That 90+% are gov employees of some sort or teacher/profs(property taxes+grants) or media lefties.
Gotta be that less than 10% that are in that category- but vote Conservative.Problem is 60% of moderates+Center Rightward just don’t show up to vote and we’re the majority ~!
-
-
larrygrant876 • a year ago Well you have to give it to James on this one. He probably arrived at his conclusions by listening to his Conservative Republican wife, Mary Matalin, because as he says, democrats are easily led and basically stupid.
-
Maggietish • a year ago Carvel is an example of the arrogance of the Democrats. He is saying to 80% of American people don’t have a clue and had he had any insight as to what the voters are thinking, or even care, he would realize that most of us have had just about enough of the Democrats Is he really that stupid that he thinks he can insult the American people and we’re just going to take it? Democrats are so obnoxiously arrogant that they think they don’t have to answer to us anymore and we have had enough. They work for us! Had they had an ounce of intelligence they would realize that the last election was a referendum against them and President Obama. The one good thing that’s come out of these last few years is that the American voters realize that we need term limits and we need to kick these career politicians to the curb. It’s obviously they have been in office too long which has only lead to unending corruption. Carvel needs to go back into the hole that he dug himself out of and stay there. He’s a typical example of a narcissistic obnoxious arrogant Democrat.
-
Daniel Gray Maggietish • a year ago Who said 80% of the American people are Democrats? All he said was 80% of the DEMOCRATS are clueless.
-
-
bet1125 • a year ago Which is why I always say that it’s OK to be a democrat, but for God’s sake don’t ever vote for one.
-
empty pockets • a year ago So this is Carville BRAGGING that he’s nothing but a political hack, a greedy opportunist using psychology to exploit the dumbest of society…for a paycheck, not for true beliefs on his part. A whore of the worst kind.
-
CleanSweep • a year ago 80%? Please! Try 99%. Their one percent leads the rest around by the nose. As has been said…those who stand for nothing, will fall for anything. They are a mix of useful idiots and just plain idiots and when whatever S may HTF, they will be the first to go down, most likely without a fight.
-
Joken Joe • a year ago 80% are clueless, that’s why their called zombies. One jumps off the bridge and the rest will follow.
-
Barto • a year ago Carville has said what many of we Americans have known for some time, most of the Democrat voters are mindless, uninformed puppets who do what they are told. This coming from a Democrat Godfather should tell the Democrats just how well they are thought of by their un-American party.
-
John Cunningham • a year ago I about dropped my jaw to the floor. The King Of Spin? Or, at least one of many, talking from his brain, whodathunkit?
I moved to Florida a little over a year a go. Now I know the area but, haven’t been it for a while. New Port Richey area. ore New Yorkers in Florida than in New York. Of course New Yorkers are flaming Liberals. My neighbor is one of the individuals.
Very opinionated and can’t get through to her. When she blurts out a tirade about Conservatives, she changes the subject when you dispute her claims. Like a wall goes up. Now this person won’t hesitate asking for favors and one of those favors is money.
The big problem for America is that the 20% of Liberals who are paying attention, are beating the pants off Conservatives getting out the message. They have been able to strong arm America for a few Gay Rights people and made this and the Abortion issue very powerful entities.
If Conservatives continue to sit back and cowl towel to these small but super concentrated Liberals, we will get Hillary for sure. Or maybe not, Elizabeth Warren I believe, is just waiting for an explosion of People tired of Hillary and her Mafia and uses the momentum to propel her to the White House. Either senario, will be a Nation killer.
-
TexasOlTimer • a year ago I went to amazon.com to read the rest of the article and found it had been posted by an individual who had also posted links to two websites as sources. I went to those and neither had such an article. Using my search engine (I don’t use Google) I finally found it at http://thinkexist.com/quotes/j… but I can’t find where the original was said – tv show, interview or wherever. Does anyone have that?
I have no doubt at all that what’s in the article is the truth. I just want to find the original source to show to some very closed-minded Dem friends of mine in hopes to wake them up!
-
Steven TexasOlTimer • a year ago If the people you want to convince are part of the 80%, having James Carvile personally tell them wouldn’t open their eyes.

FSHNT21 • a year ago Whether he originated the quote or not, Skeletor is spot on in the assessment.
Sad, but what the GOP fails to do and the Democrats do VERY well, is get their stupid constituency (alive AND dead) to vote on election day… -
jaydee • a year ago And he has so much fun doing it, besides all the perks and $$$ he gets. All he cares about is his ability to manipulate people…..he is a loyal student of Alinsky.

8355378 • a year ago i been saying this for years,dems only watch nbc abc cbs and they sure as hell won’t report on anything that goes against the dems so no wonder the dems are dumb
-
Phillip_in_TX • a year ago Wow! James, the “truth” at last! The only question is only 80%? I thought it would be at least in the mid 90’s or higher.
-
ADRoberts • a year ago Mr. Carville has admitted his lack of integrity. And in doing so he also has admitted that he does not believe in God OR heaven and hell. Slowly but surely, he is the tool of the deceiver. He has prostituted himself to the money he is given to deceive, regardless of what damage it does to the country.
God have mercy on him. -
ActualConundrum • a year ago Wow he stated the absolute truth. Because he knows it won’t stop the stupid from remaining stupid. Because the clueless don’t look for truth. And will never read his words.
-
Guest • a year ago Carville stated what we conservatives and Republicans have always known, however, he used that Group Think psychology to get Democrats elected versus Republican conservatives. Now imagine had he used his know-how to get conservatives elected? What he is saying is he used group Think tactics to help destroy this country.
OK Jimmy boy, now, are you going to help us undo what you just admitted to handing this country that led to Obama—the Clintons! Because Democrats are politically, socially and morally as clueless as sheep to the slaughter and cows coming home!
On that, you just answered something I have asked since the Clinton 1992 campaign: Is this guy setting the people up, because he cannot be that stupid to believe Bill Clinton is the answer when his AK record is despicable. I said you may look like you rolled out of the swamp, but you’re too slick to be rolled over by the Clinton steam, and I said you had to be conning everyone and they are falling for something you’re feeding. OK, I was right, but you still pulled it off, now you admit what you did you SOB, and you’re laughing at it, but the fact is, as dumb as the Democrats are, you gave us what we have by getting to fall for your lies and scams you created and they believed. Had you used that with truth about a conservatives and conservatives since then, you could have been the bald, Cajun William F. Buckley. No, you decided on scamming votes because that paid bigger. I hope Mary beat the sh—out of you, because I would!-
tr60 Guest • a year ago From Snopes.com:
In October 2012 the above-referenced quotation in which James Carville purportedly likened the Democratic constituency to “a herd of cows” received wide circulation on the Internet. It appears to have originated with an unsourced posting to the ThinkExist.com which has been reproduced on a number of other web sites. However, we found no news article, speech, interview transcript, or printed source documenting this statement as one actually made by James Carville, and a representative from his office confirmed that the purported quote was not something Carville himself ever said:Apparently the quote was falsely posted by an unknown user to a quotations website called thinkexist.com. We have contacted the website and asked them to take the quote down. James Carville never said these words, and this quote in no way belongs to James Carville.
Feel free to distribute my response, so people know the truth that this quote was 100% falsely attributed to James Carville.

speedle24 tr60 • a year ago I don’t argue that Carville never publicly made these comments, but you have to believe it is exactly what he thinks. It’s basically what all democrat/progressive politicians think these days. It is the Saul Alinsky political strategy that calls for massaging the “useful idiots”.
