Hungary Responds to New York Times Coverage of Migrant Crisis: ‘You Just Don't Get It'
2017-03-16
[Breitbart] Zoltán Kovács, official spokesman for Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, has responded to accusations of wrongdoing by "ivory tower" editors at The New York Times by saying that they "just don’t get" the European migrant crisis.
If they 'got it' their entire world view would collapse. It's not that they don't get it, they can't allow themselves to get it...
The newspaper’s editorial board claimed that Prime Minister Orbán was "playing the European Union for a patsy" on 13 March, urging the bloc’s central authorities to take action against his government.

"It’s easy to be charmed by the human rights nonsense when you’re penning editorials from an office in Midtown Manhattan," replied Kovács on an official government blog post. "But we’re running a government responsible for the safety and security of our citizens ‐ as well as the citizens of Europe ‐ on the front lines of this crisis, and we see this struggle differently."

#5  can't see much beyond Somerville

Do hark, in darkest Cambridge,
From the Kennedy School to the Yard,
And be awed by the wicked odd English
Of Harvardians talking for God!

while I'm going random...

You wanted 'em, Gotham -- you got 'em.
("G*ddammit, Mayor Hillary Rodham!")
Then ("Fly, fly, my pretties!")
It's Chelsea... and kiddies
("What, Charlotte should start at the bottom?")

#4  They won't get it. Even on their knees with the sword severing their neck they won't get it. It will always be someone else's fault who wasn't as enlightened and evolved.

#3  They won't till they're forces to house 'migrants' in their own domicile. They can do a vetting process, but we get to use the same one for any others.

#1  Imagine seeing things from the viewpoint of a New Yawker. Yeah.

Arrogant Liberals. the Center of the world.

Everything gets hazy somewhere beyond New Jersey. And they have a load of Opinions, but no real Convictions. They don't even know the difference.
