Vox defends Islamist and calls Duncan Hunter a 'racist' while spouting racism

Vox.com, the website that pretends to help low-functioning readers "understand the news" has defended Ammar Campa-Najjar, the left-wing grandson of a legendary Palestinian terrorist who has taken donations from CAIR, an unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation Relief and Development for terror-financing, against attacks by Rep. Duncan Hunter (R-CA).

Vox is calling the voters of the district racists because most would rather vote for a man who quit his job after the September 11 attacks and joined the United States Marine Corps, graduated from Officer Candidates School and served as a field artillery officer in the 1st Marine Division after the 2003 invasion of Iraq, completed a second tour in Fallujah, Iraq in 2004, then after his honorable discharge in 2005, remained in the Marine Corps Reserve, and served a third tour of duty during the War on Terrorism, than vote for the other guy Vox is promoting.
Rep. Duncan Hunter
Now there's a run-on sentence that you can sink your teeth into.

Campa-Najjar is challenging Hunter in the 50th District of California, a district that's traditionally Republican, which, in the obfuscated eyes of Vox writers, has therefore got to be racist, in spite of the fact that it isn't and that it has become more competitive since Hunter and his wife were indicted for alleged misuse of campaign funds.

Hunter vehemently protests his innocence and has called Campa-Najjar a "security risk" and ran a controversial ad accusing him of attempting to "infiltrate" the government. This has drawn criticism from the left and a variety of local and national media outlets, because the media is biased to the left and Hunter is a Republican.

Whipping out the trusty old race card, Vox's Tara Golshan defended Campa-Najjar writing that Hunter is using "the same kind of race-baiting Republicans have retreated to over and over again when they feel under siege."
Golshan coddles up to Bill
Then Golshan added: "This is the part of California where you see Confederate flags, and where many people only socialize with people who look like them."

So Golshan [who may have changed her name from 'Golsham'] cited zero evidence for her anti-White, racist claim, other than her stating that "Volunteers for Campa-Najjar's campaign will tell you they find themselves explaining that their candidate disavows terrorism."

No kidding. What else would one expect from a guy running for the House who has his background, his curious name changes, and his refusal to return the CAIR money or money from a Palestinian diplomat.

Explain that, please.
We need to read the writing on the wall
Apparently Golshan is unable to see the irony of her stereotyping hundreds of thousands of people as racists due to their geography--Southern California's wealthy coastal communities, while accusing Hunter of racism.

And Islam is not a race--it's a misogynistic, anti-Semitic, war-inciting ideology. The very fact that Campa-Najjar accepts campaign financing from CAIR and a Palestinian diplomat is very, very troubling.

Shades of Clinton tactics

Politics is dirty and the public is getting tired of it. That may be why Donald Trump is so attractive to many voters--he says what's on his mind, and that's bringing him votes even if it goes against the political philosophy of the voter. 

But even Donald Trump lies. It's just that his opponents are afraid to call attention to those lies because of how powerfully he fights back.

Regarding Iraq, Trump now says he was against the war. "Was" implies that in the past, he was always against the war.


He was against it, but that was after he said he was for it in 2002. Now he's against it apparently because it makes him look wiser than the brother of one of his opponents. 

People have the right to change their minds, and there is no reason not to believe what Donald Trump is saying now--he isn't lying about what he believes at this time in history. The only lie was that he implied that he was never for the war.

Now let's be clear, the misleading photo of Marco Rubio shaking hands with President Obama is a lie. It's a lie because it isn't a true photo of the event it claims to represents. It was Photoshopped to make it look like Rubio is an Obama buddy.

The fake photo was on the Cruz campaign site TheRealRubioRecord.com. It was a stock photo of an African-American businessman shaking hands with a Latino businessman--the photo was discovered after it had gone on the website. 

The heads of both Obama and Rubio were Photoshopped onto the torsos with the headline: "The Rubio-Obama Trade Pact."

I'm sorry, Cruz voters, but that's dishonest and it sucks.

A Cruz spokesman told CNN that they were "confident that our campaign would not use a photo that is not authentic."

And Bill did not have sex with that woman . . . Monica Lewinsky. And Hillary Clinton never told a lie.

The Cruz campaign communications director Rick Tyler said to CNN that "if Rubio has a better picture of him shaking hands with Barack Obama I'm happy to swap it out." 

That sounds like something the Clinton camp might say to a political opponent. Putting the onus on the victim rather than themselves, the accusers.

Honestly, I'm not "all in" for Marco Rubio. I'm still watching and listening to the candidates and I've narrowed it down to three.


I've basically eliminated Dr. Ben Carson--Meghan McCain accurately described his campaign speeches as sounding like Wikipedia posts, and I totally agree. However, I like Carson's honesty, but I cannot imagine him presiding over our foreign affairs.

I think John Kasich is just okay, but his chronic karate chopping gets me antsy. He also makes all kinds of claims as to what he had done for Ohio, but my research has shown that he was significantly less instrumental in the state's jobs and economy as he claims. 
Look it up.

Jeb Bush needs to bow out of the race immediately. His stoop-shouldered responses to Trump make me feel sad for him. He's probably a decent enough guy, but he's never going to be president, so he needs to pack up his mommy and big brother and go home. The Bush era needs to be put to bed.

For me, the race is now between the top three: Trump, Cruz and Rubio. But Cruz has lost some points after the Carson scandal and the Rubio Photoshop-fest. 

I am beginning to think Cruz, like Hillary, would do anything and say anything to get elected. 

Let him convince me I'm wrong. I'm willing to listen and I don't mind being wrong.
