03/25/24: What a perfect title for such a damned fool. Reminds me of the political prisoner in Moscow justifying his own incarceration in Darkness At Noon (Arthur Koestler 1941). --- Carville "said, 'This was L.S. freaking U., not Oberlin.' " Someone pass the word along to him and the other deluded fools: THEY ARE ALL OBERLIN: Harvard, LSU, community "colleges" (welfare programs). Conformity of thought is the rule, James. Now, dry up and blow away, pal.

A side point in the essay is DEI. Could we now call it something I saw this weekend: Didn’t Earn It. It seems to apply across the board in the whole useless ideology. The longer name may be Didn’t Earn It but Want Reparations Anyway.

It is not coincidence that Carville has been trotted out at this particular political juncture in 2024. They are desperate.

So they have dragged out one of the vilest, meanest, nastiest, crudest, and most shameless political operatives they ever had to help marshal their troops into the mud and grime of political wargames of which he is master.

He hates DJT with the fire of a thousand suns, (I think he may have even have claimed as much), and all those who voted for him likewise. He is harbinger they will go scorched earth in this campaign, no-holds-barred.

Don: Sincere thanks for writing Carville's eulogy. He is dead meat.

I disliked Carville the first time I saw him. I dislike most people who strive to manipulate our political system. To people like him, scheming and lying to voters to sway their votes is perfectly okay. It’s okay to destroy peoples lives to cover up wrongdoing by others. It’s okay to promise certain voting groups favors in exchange for their support. And maybe, in Carvilles and the Clintons case, it is okay to shorten a persons life span if that person strays from your official story line. Carville is scum, not because he supported a “D”, but because he thinks the American elections system is a game to be twisted and used to his benefit. Notice in Carvilles comments to “the Dowd” he never once mentions what is good for the country. That didn’t matter to him. No, Jimmy Carville will someday have a headstone that reads “He loved the game of selling neatly wrapped bags of garbage disguised as good humans”. After all these decades, I was right about my impression of Carville and his talking mutt Stephonopolis.

Carville’s politics are symptomatic of an angry, crass, covetous, self-loathing boor, who, among the seedy, low-minded company he keeps, has easily passed “smart aleck” off as smart.

Does anyone in politics today look past the next election? God forbid. And if they do they will be forced to resign.

Like Carville, Obama will be complaining about the world he created in a few years, when they start throwing Gays off the top of buildings.

Carville represents the Democratic Party perfectly. Power is always the objective. Once obtained, abuse it for personal benefit without regard for the damage you inflict on the country. Anyone who opposes you is a fool who does not comprehend the rules of the game. If those in opposition gain an audience, crush them by any means available. The levels of his arrogance and condescension have always been a wonder to behold.

Carville should fall through his ass and hang himself. End of report.

I was surprised to see Carville's face again after all these years. What a clown. Literally.

The Dem strategy of radically changing the demographic is stupidly bold but risky. The more they keep their welcome sign at the southern border, the more African Americans shift to Trump. And, the Dems still have to figure out how to get the illegals "registered" to vote. I suspect they will have a plan to ballot harvest without having to get them to a polling location, but they still need a name and address. I have read that some states are already registering illegals. As for the Queer demographic, it has limits in size and will fall out of style. I see more and more articles about detransitioners - people who regret physically/surgically transitioning.

Poor James Carville. The boy is deparately trying to remain relevant as a political pundit. He and Paul Begala (the Forehead, per Rush) were the golden boys when Bill Clinton was President. Like Clinton, they were ruthless political operatives and who would stoop to anything to deflect the truth about the Clintons. Now, he rightly claims that his party has evolved such that he has become irrelevant as it relates to party demographics. Too bad, so sad for the Serpant Head. Sadly, Rush is not with us any more, so I am going to give Carville a new moniker. He is a Democrat dinosaur...a Demosaur.

With Dowdy pushing CARVILLE’s Gloria Swanson close-up moment, readers get a two-fer front seat in the democrats’ antique auto road show of 2024. Who knew he was an ex- Marine? F. lee Ermy he ain’t: his bad boy punchbowl comments sound more like a wheeze of sour methane coming from a rest home than a Marine Drill Sargeant’s introduction beat-down rant to yet another class of recruits. It was a sputtering wheeze from the past as welcome to today’s dimmie-cons as publication of a defunct Chicago Bath House membership roster.

Anybody ever notice the familiarity between Carville and a skeleton? Looks aside, both are bone heads.

"When he handed the gave over to Newt Gingrich 29 years ago, did Tom Foley realize he may have been the last straight white male to serve as a Democrat House speaker?"

If memory serves, some time after he left congress there was some question as to whether he was closeted, but not from anyone seeking to smear his reputation in any way, but from perverts in the media who, at the time, were claiming almost anyone with a positive public profile as one of their own - Abraham Lincoln, for example - my respect for The Wrestler may be all but nil, but he and his legacy ought not be subjected to such lies.

What strikes me as odd is that apparently, it is just accepted that Serpent Head knows the sound of a satisfied woman - Mary Matalin doesn't count. In fact, her being HW's campaign director and then marrying him is what was the very first inkling that the folks allegedly in charge of the Republican Party were Uniparty apparatchiks, all along.

He WAS right about this, though:

"...the last time we had a Republican president we had a disastrous war and a disastrous recession."

W and Dick Cheney were the best President and Vice-President the War Party ever had, until the first sodomite president and crime-family boss veep.

"It turned out that Hillary needed rednecks after all."

She did indeed - but would she have gotten even one without manufacturing it?

"They’ve ["...women, and women of color..."] got the power that Carville and other now-old always-white men gave them."

True, enough - I suppose regarding them as a single, monolithic voting bloc is how NPR keeps its core audience of leftist/liberal/Marxist, college-educated, homosexual, self-loathing white, and victim-empowered black, latin and Asian women listeners, but if such a bloc exists, its population is such that it has no statistical relevance in a presidential-year election.
