Conservative host banned for 1 week for being Pro-Choice:

Looks like republicans need their safe spaces these days.

Conservatives are such fucking hypocrites.

They'll stand up for unborn fetuses' rights, but don't give a shit about living children's education or health.

Tomi Lahren has the views of a neonazi but damn is she good looking. So conflicted

“Do you have to be on the same side of every single issue of your political party? Aren’t you allowed to evolve and grow?”

Nein! Entweder mit uns oder gegen uns!

:-p

I really don't think Tomi would have the platform she has if she wasn't so stunningly gorgeous. She's nothing more than a close minded loudmouth

Jesus. I mean she even gave a good, libertarian reason for her opinion. It's weird how binary people's thoughts are supposed to be. You can generally predict a person's view on climate change if you know their thoughts about taxation. What the hell do those things have to do with each other?

What a fool, everyone knows that small government means giving the government control over your body and the relationships you have.

Does anyone actually think this girls for real? Do we actually think shes this super hardcore conservative? I dont. I think shes the depiction of Ann on Boondocks.

"saying that as someone who supports limited government, it would be hypocritical of her to believe the government should decide what women should do with their bodies."

seems reasonable.

in any case, i doubt many will miss her absence.

@judaspete: Because you have to support a party all the way.

*snaps fingers and dances flamboyantly in the street*

Broken clock is right twice a day.

The messed up part is, for once, her reasoning is absolutely sound. OF COURSE conservatives are mad!

Yeah I don't agree with this, I don't care who she offended at work her political beliefs shouldn't get her suspended or fired.

even simpler than that, they will condemn liberals for silencing people for saying things, and then turn around and do the same.

apparently it's perfectly ok to be a bombastic asshole as long as you are conservative and politically incorrect, but the second you say something smart and are conservative....oh shit, stop the presses, silence the wench, cancel the show.

Also, this just goes to show, conservatives don't give two shits about women. Period.

Even a blind squirrel gets an acorn now and again :P

Good, know your place and stay in your lane.

When you're in a position like that you follow the line and if you think you're going to cross it you check with the leaders.

She failed to do so and she's getting off pretty easy.

Tommi Lahren is a bigger hypocrite...she was pro life until last week, when she was invited to the view. Since that time, her opinions have changed significantly from right wing extremist to a moderate con job. She is hot though not particularly my taste, since I prefer curvier women. She belongs on tube8, not on MSM.

I know you're trolling....but that's still a horrible ideology.

I'm a conservative and I like Tomi but let's be honest here she's just a pretty face, I don't really regard her political views with such value.

It's weird, they are overwhelmingly christians, and God, in the old and new testaments, Looooooves him some killing kids and babies.

Meh she's not even THAT pretty.

That is my core belief system, know your place.

It's a basic of parenting, when you have a kid you lay out exactly what it's going to do and the punishments if it doesn't do them.

Obviously this person's parents did a bad job with her.

When you are a spokesperson for a group of individuals you hold to a core set of values, strong people know how to do that.

I've never seen someone attempt to frame, "cowardice and subservience," under such valiant terms before.

No one who is a normal, well adjusted human being thinks like this. You're either incredibly socially inept or trolling... inclined to believe the latter.

Do people still use the term 'know your place'? Talk about some regressive stances, wow.

But if someone supports the life position, are they not promoting big government? Is the resistance of big government not a core tenet of the current conservative ideology? How does this system cohere logically, if either choice is taken?

Don't think that was suspension worthy. Regardless of how sensitive the abortion topic is. But at the same time, a week is more like a vacation for someone with Tomi's public standing and money. So I would have taken it with stride too.

This also shows that Tomi can make a solid argument off script. Against the will of her superiors. And state something unpopular to many of her conservative followers. So props to her. The idea we have to align with every single belief of our political allies/followers, is nonsense.

Pro life and big government aren't connected.

It's the same way in the Northeast you have many fringe Democrats that run on pro choice\small(er) government.

This is why I stress knowing your place. If you make your way up the food chain to where you have a prominent role in whatever it is that you're doing you cannot just say whatever you feel like. You have a responsibility to stick to the core of what you are a part of. Now if you want to disengage from one group and start a fringe group that's another thing.

The fringe is also why the Democrats are losing all the time now. Everyone wants everything exactly their way and that's unrealistic.

She should have known her place, especially because she's on the right.

Diehard wingnuts are the worst.

less fake news is good

So, the government telling millions of women what they can and cannot do with their own bodies is not big government? Explain, because this argument has been around much longer than you or I, longer than the GOP was a party. Anti federalists from the south bitched and moaned about overarching big government overreach from the North in things like standardized barrel lengths, volume requirements for packaged goods etc. IF that is big government, how is the government destroying someone's sovereign control over their own reproductive system, backed by government employees with guns willing to enforce these restrictions, not tyrannical big government????

I'm beyond sick of all the them vs. us attitude from everyone.

Tomi Lahren and people like her are nothing more than "outrage" hosts. They talk about an issue and rile up their audience by appealing to emotion and fear rather than using facts and rational thought. Their argument is often one-sided and don't require any afterthought. It's nothing more than something to be shared so that the person sharing it can feel good about themselves.

I honestly don't care for her.

...........What?

What exactly would you qualify as an act of "big gubment" if this if the act of invading someone else's life so much that you are attempting to dictate even... literally... inside of them. Than what does qualify?

Oh man. So if you have not noticed, this whole thing goes in cycles and circles. Democrats get power, sell out the people in favor for corporations, the republicans rise, sell out the people in favor for corporations. The democrats rise again, sell out the people in favor of corporations. The republicans rise again, sell out.................. you should get the cycle by now

One of the byproducts of this has been a drop in return voters,

A second byproduct has been splintering parties. Something we started to see once the first bought republicans got tired of not being accurately represented with their votes, so a large percentage went to Bob Dole in 88. As we know Clinton became president by hiring a republican strategist to bring in those republican donors and promise republican favors, and that is when the democrats became as corrupted with after Clinton us seeing the worst president in recent US history, then came a mirror image of Ronald Reagan with Obama. As a result the democratic party splintered, which is what we see now with the democrats. Just like the rise of the tea party was a response to conservative voters not being represented by their conservative electives and of course.... blacky McBlackblack was in office.

A third byproduct of this is the fairly dramatic rise of the independent voter we've seen.

Of course lastly, "everyone wants everything" is a very silly statement to make. The splintering we have witnessed with the democrats has left two rather obvious and fairly well defined groups of corporate democrats who want to think everything is okay they just need to get rid of Trump. And a second group demanding that the democrats represent the peoples ideals over corporate welfare/an oligarchy and if the established democrats wont do this, than we will replace them.

I left the first sentence in to hopefully highlight the fascist and totalitarian mentality of some of those on the "right".

Something wrong about writing Obama that I haven't caught on yet?

Something both liberals and conservatives can enjoy.

I didn't enjoy that, that channel and the rest of his videos are just as worse as Tomi.

Looking at the titles of all the other videos, it seems equally as cluelessy hard right. His attacks on her are no different than Beck and those other hypocritical conservative snowflakes. He just seems mad that she made it a little farther than youtube armchair politician.

It's odd the man in this video says conservatives are adherent to facts, whilst talking in a video about disagreement on abortion. This is the issue where the right has the moral and factual coherence of "If I get an erection, that's a baby!!"

Welp, perma-ban for Lahren. Bye bye lady, no more cashing checks for spouting hypocrisy and passive aggressive bigotry.

Meanwhile fans of the Blaze will do nothing but cry about how the "left" wants to force everyone to think and act just like them.
