Almost a week and we're still talking about shit...

this has become beyond ridiculous.

Only the crazy family that starved and imprisoned their gazillion kids is managing to push it out of the headlines.

I have mega errands to run.

But first:  A libtard bellwether on Facecrap, who is a fan of both Castro and Che, is on a trip to Cuba.  The libtard is leaving today.  Her picture title?  Adios Utopia! Good bye 🇨🇺 Cuba! 

Definition of Utopia:  An imagined place or state of things in which everything is perfect. 

And there are still people who don't recognize liberalism as a mental disorder.  Oy vey!

While I'm gone, go read some much more interesting stuff from my friends on the webz:

Bunkerville:  Obama, Graham and Trump all thought the world was in a shit storm

Don Surber:  S***hole liberalism  (remember Melinda Byerley?)

Nox and Freinds:   ACLJ – Planned Parenthood 2016-2017 Annual Report Released  (staggering statistics)

Breitbart:   Facebook Reminds Publishers: ‘We’re In Charge’ (people actually depend on Facecrap to deliver their news? Good grief!)

Political Clown Parade:   Jeff Flake Proclaims The Second Coming Of Comrade Stalin




Today's Amazon Deals in Furniture

Friday: Cleanup in aisle 4...

the one that holds all the tabs.

I wanted to comment on each of these, which only represent about half of the tabs I have open.  Thing is, I slept in until 9am when I am usually up at 5am.  So, here it is at 1:31pm and other than breakfast have not accomplished much of anything.  I'm not even dressed.  Arrrrgh

So comments will be limited to one sentence.

A Special Society of Hubristic Oligarchs and Leaders of Extraordinary Sagacity - aka ASSHOLES...

spot on.

Robert Gore at Straight Line Logic:

You first became aware of them when you were in grade school—self-appointed leaders, directors of taste and trend, unchallengeable because their mockery and physical abuse could make life quite uncomfortable—the in-group. As you got older, you discovered there was always an in-group. An in-group runs the country and indeed, the world. Just like grade school, they flaunt their exalted status and make life miserable for outsiders. SLL hereby christens this group: A Special Society of Hubristic Oligarchs and Leaders of Extraordinary Sagacity. For convenience, we’ll refer to both the society and its members by the acronym ASSHOLES.

The caveman who bludgeoned other cave people until they made him king, hailed him as a god, and were forced to let him and his crew run things, and later, the pharaohs, emperors, kings, queens, tzars, kaisers, fuehrers, dear leaders, dictators, etc. who did essentially the same things, are testament that notwithstanding the occasional setback—revolution, coups, foreign conquest—ASSHOLES have dominated and subjugated throughout history. There have been rare and fleeting times when ASSHOLES have left their serfs alone, but anyone who lived during those periods should have counted themselves lucky. The present age is certainly not one of them.

No particular virtue is required for membership in ASSHOLES; many members have been virtually virtueless. One sociopathic character trait is necessary: a neurotic compulsion to tell others what to do and a willingness to use any means available to enforce compliance. An exercise in proctology—studying ASSHOLES—is as distasteful as it sounds, but an examination of their last one hundred years or so is instructive.

Teddy Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson, JP Morgan, and John D. Rockefeller, et. al., were the ASSHOLES of their day, and two “innovations” they thought Americans ought to have “for their own good” (a favorite phrase of ASSHOLES), were a central bank and an income tax. Funny money and government theft weren’t really new ideas, but in 1913, America got the Federal Reserve and the income tax. Not to worry, the ASSHOLES assured, “elastic money” would prevent panics and the income tax would only be exacted in almost imperceptible levies on the fattest of the fat cats.

One year later, European ASSHOLES started a glorious little war to further their convoluted geopolitical interests and aspirations. Four years later Europe lay in ruins with 17 million dead and another 20 million wounded. Empires were in tatters and a war-weakened Russian government had succumbed to Bolshevik ASSHOLES. Just to prove that war is the gift that keeps on giving, a war-spread Spanish Influenza pandemic killed another 50 to 100 million people. Just to prove that ASSHOLES’ work is never done, the winners imposed on the losers terms so onerous they almost guaranteed another war.  READ THE REST

So Now We’re Really Effed – By CW

I was fairly happy to see all the Republican gains on Tuesday night—until I saw Kevin McCarthy tell Megyn Kelly that the House did not want to repeal Obamacare until they had something to replace it with.  He said that on an election night of a Republican landslide when almost ALL of them winning ran against Obama and Obamacare.  What just happened?

At first, I just rolled my eyes. Then, my blood boiled.  Then, I exploded.  read the rest

Wonder what his wife and kids were doing on Sunday.

Word has it that he failed to recognize his eldest daughter last time he saw her.

Want to know how much a billion is?...

sure you do. 


This is too true to be funny.
The next time you hear a politician use the
word 'billion' in a casual manner, think about
whether you want the 'politicians' spending
YOUR tax money.

A billion is a difficult number to comprehend,
But one advertising agency did a good job of
putting that figure into some perspective in
one of its releases.

Another opinion on Ann Barnhardt's "Why I'm Considering Quitting" post...

which gives us more to ponder.

Yesterday I posted a link to Ann Barnhardt's post which reflects much of what I've been thinking lately. 

For me the question is whether Ann is mired in despair, a sin against the virtue of Hope, or is she just being realistic.  There is a definite difference between facing facts and unicorn farts and rainbows, referred to as normalcy bias.  Facing facts means you take appropriate action. 

The Grunt of Monte Cristo, over at For God, Family, and Country, leans more toward the despair angle.

I've never been a giggling aficionado of Ann.  I think she makes some good points, but I question her tactic of appearing to call her readers stupid - something Karl Denninger, at the Market Ticker, tends to do also.
