1. K&R for exposure

I agree with some of his theory but it's directed against refugees
This is the same guy who has issues with GLBT
Viktor Orban answering a question on GLBT and Hungary "Tolerance, however, does not mean that we would apply the same rules for people whose life style is different from our own. We differentiate between them and us."

The Roma
He is close to people such as Zsolt Bayer and was quite hostile towards the Roma living in Hungary until the refugees (Invaders as he refers to them) arrived. Then suddenly, he's saying businesses should give jobs to the Romany before the refugees

2. I listened to this speech two times. I believe his discontent with the over whelming problems

faced by European countries is with Brussels. He clearly emphasized Hungary's history of taking in refugees but this time he senses a difference....not assimilation. In these economic times I can understand the stress on the
treasuries of effected countries.

His viewpoint of GLBT is new to me. I do think we need remember our path has been long. Give it time.

I see a policy change with the schengren coming.

3. Orban is part of the New Fascism spreading in Europe. You think he's "courageous"?

On edit, I looked up the fool who made this video. Here's the title of one of his other vids:
#NeverTrumps are Secret Globalists

Another Bill Still show featured the preacher pushing this:

My take is this - Donald Trump is more prophetic than people think. There is a Cyrus anointing on this man. He is like a Reformer in secular garb. I don't see his work being done quickly, but who knows? My advice is to be careful not to dismiss his comments and policy proposals based on the hysterical response of the media and establishment elites. If he is anointed as Gods wrecking ball to political correctness, expect him to be lampooned by Hell on SNL and every other flaming liberal on the East and West coast. Trump is driving the establishment (and their demons) crazy because he does not bow to their altars or pay homage to their deities. They rage because they cannot control him.
I stand by my original (and controversial) pronouncement that Kim Clement and I made from the beginning: Donald Trump is GOD’S TRUMPET.

Snappyturtle, you sure know how to pick em.

4. Yes I think he is courageous. Isn't that what I posted?

Orban is up against almost insurmountable odds...that's courageous whether you agree or disagree with him.

I try to broaden my horizons and listen to many voices....Still's is one of those. You see I am an advocate of
free speech for ALL. I cannot consider myself well educated by only listening to one viewpoint....from narrowly
selected sources. I need reasons to be a cheerleader.

7. you need help answering direct questions

But your history at DU is softpedaling fascism in Putin's Russia & his military occupation and pushing conspiracy theories from the Kremlin. So your stuff about "broaden my horizons" by pushing an anti-immigrant hate speech by Orban is just BS. So don't bothering answering, we already know

8. You think Orban is a fascist & my reporting a speech of his makes me fascist. Amazing.

You and John McCain have something in common in regard to Orban. Does that make you a rwnj? If we use your logic...

Your hatred of Russia and Putin hasn't gone unnoticed by me. "Discussions" always come back to that....again, amazing.
I'm proud of my history on DU otoh your history on DU is chocked full of vitriol and hatred. Don't look to be tapped by the diplomatic corp. FYI I'm about as capitalistic as one can be; I've lived nothing else however, I do see fascism seeping into the USA and that makes me sick.

Since listening isn't your forte I doubt you heard Orban speak of his country's history of welcoming immigrants. Ignore what is happening to these small European countries at your peril. This summer will be very interesting to say the least. I doubt EU countries can just print more money to take on more population.

I will give you credit for your tenacity. Digging up an OP over two months old must have taken some time. Why you would want to expose your lack of knowledge, again, surprises me.

"We" ? Do you speak for others? Who are they? Do 'they' know you are doing this?
