So the management at Dick's Sporting Goods are going to stop "Assault Style Weapons" in the wake of the Florida #MeToo P.R. fest by little shits like Hogg and the woefully inept Sheriff Isfake. (See my previous posts on these two pathetic characters.)
Anyway, the CEO appeared on the pathetic Good Morning America -- haven for coffee-deprived housewives until they can crack their box of Chablis and hunker down with the quad-cunts at The View or get sloshed to Oprah! giving away Dodge vans -- and said the was going to pull these items off the shelf.
So the tangential, self-righteous posturing over "assault style weapons" and stricter gun control continues and, with the Democrats losing on every other front from DACA to trying to shout down the new tax law as a "favor the rich" boondoggle, they are hanging their hat on this one and their "Hate Trump" mantra for the 2018 elections.
Pretty thin gruel, in my opinion. Once people realize that the basic message is "government fucked up at every level so you need to surrender one of your Constitutional rights", the blow back will similar to the wave of indignation that swept Trump into office over Frau Oven Mitt.
In the mean time, this little virtue signalling effort by Dick's sure has -- like the Wiener episodes of the past -- opened up the double-entendre opportunities!
Here's a couple I did. Feel free to purloin and distribute!
The asshole sheriff of Broward County not the country of brave souls who have stood up to the Mideast goat humpers since the day of their independence in 1947. The former is a self-centered, self-adoring fatuous dick head totally incapable of understanding the concept of command responsibility. Anyway, to cut to the chase, here is an interview he did with Jake Tapper the other day where all of his inadequacies surface below and in its entirety. To his credit, Tapper does a credible job asking searing questions of this fatuous, bloviating, self-adoring prig.
It's 28 minutes long (fireworks start at the 19:00 mark) and painful to listen to in some points but it make the fact that this idiot should be relieved of his job immediately if not sooner.
I have pretty much been so angry at the bullshit going down in Florida with the left -- ignoring the epic failure of government at all levels -- insist that we must sacrifice OUR Second Amendment rights to somehow compensate for their incompetence. Reinforcing my anger are the antics of several of the crisis actors who float to the surface like so many undigested turds in an open septic tank.
Chief among is David Hogg -- someone I hereinafter refer to The Little Shit.
Anyway, so I see this smarmy little shit has fallen back on the universal argument reserved for the left when they founder: so-and-so is a draft-dodger.
Funny how convenient that criticism is when spewed by punk-assed little shit millennials who were not even alive when The Draft actually meant a fairly healthy prospect that you would end up being called up for military service and, potentially, sacrificing your life and career for your country. (I served in the 10 years in the USAF in lieu of being drafted and being sent to VN in the U. S. Army. Three of my friends were killed serving in VN.)
In point of fact, Donald Trump is serving his country by voluntarily putting his life and family on hold for a decade. The two years of campaigning and, potentially, eight years of service as POTUS at a point in his life instead of living with his family were living very comfortably after workign hard to build his businesses. Now he faces a hectic, thankless job FOR NO PAY (donating his salary) where he is reviled by and unhinged media and part of the population like this little pile of diarrhea.
..and Ben Shapiro dissects The Little Shit's mewlings in defending the police who essentially showed up at the high school thinking it was Free Donut Day or something:
Personally, I wish The Little Shit -- Hogg not Ben Shapiro -- would crawl off and die somewhere.
Over the past several months I came across some weird rock and roll -- strange but catchy tunes nonetheless. Now these are ancient, one-hit wonders and probably so-o-o-o-o 15 years ago (or more) but they are..like..um..you know..real groovy man!
For listening pleasure..yours..but mostly mine!
..O.K., I heard this one a long time ago. Like it nonetheless.
This is what happens when you basically do nothing but play golf and boogie down every night of your presidency. You are followed by a president who comes in and takes apart the perfidious "accomplishments" and causes you to fade from memory.
Sent to me by my good friend and former Atlanta PD Homicide Dick. (God! I love saying that! But, by "dick", I mean detective, not..well..you know.) Anyway, it's a piece of his uncommonly common logic culled from an editorial that a lady somewhere wrote. It explains things better than all the baloney you hear on TV. Her point:
Recently large demonstrations have taken place across the country protesting the fact that Congress is finally addressing the issue of illegal immigration.
Certain people are angry that the US might protect its own borders, might make it harder to sneak into this country and, once here, to stay indefinitely.
Let me see if I correctly understand the thinking behind these protests. Let's say I break into your house. Let's say that when you discover me in your house, you insist that I leave. But I say, 'No! I like it here. It's better than my house. I've made all the beds and washed the dishes and did the laundry and swept the floors. I've done all the things you don't like to do. I'm hard-working and honest (except for when I broke into your house).
According to the protesters:
You are Required to let me stay in your house
You are Required to feed me
You are Required to add me to your family's insurance plan
You are Required to Educate my kids
You are Required to Provide other benefits to me & to my family
My husband will do all of your yard work because he is also hard-working and honest. (except for that breaking in part).
If you try to call the police or force me out, I will call my friends who will picket your house carrying signs that proclaim my RIGHT to be there. It's only fair, after all, because you have a nicer house than I do, and I'm just trying to better myself. I'm a hard-working and honest, person, except for well, you know, I did break into your house and what a deal it is for me!
I live in your house, contributing only a fraction of the cost of my keep, and there is nothing you can do about it without being accused of cold, uncaring, selfish, prejudiced, and bigoted behavior. Oh yeah, and I DEMAND that you learn MY LANGUAGE!!! so that you can communicate with me.
Why can't people see how ridiculous this is? America is populated and governed by idiots.
On February 2nd, Tucker Carlson had this exchange with Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) about the memo and its fallout:
This little pussy is a dickwipe of the first order, I am sure you all know/agree on that point. Also, this is the same little same little shit-sicking prick who paraded his unbridled McCarthyism on Tucker's show Friday evening and got his head caved in by the Tuck because he accused Carlson of "being an agent of Putin".
What is really galling is that this proposal -- should it become law -- it will will essentially codify the lying, fake news journalists as a special class of citizens whose first Amendment rights supersede those of you or I. Further, it could result in law enforcement being empowered to essentially stifle criticism of any sort.
But there is a larger threat.
Tucker was so incensed with this exchange, he did two follow-ups on this and last night's was the most chilling. The front end of the show is below AND YOU ARE ENCOURAGED TO WATCH THIS AND COMMIT THE SENTIMENTS TO YOUR HEART AND RESOLVE THAT PEOPLE LIKE THIS LITTLE PRICK SHALL NOT BE ALLOWED TO TAKE OVER OUR LIVES!
The realization that Swalwell and Pelosi and Adam Schitt and MaxiPad Waters and the rest of that clown cabal will be running the House next year for two years is frightening. They very well could Neuter the last two years of Donald Trump's term and very well cause him to lose the 2020 election to someone like Crapifornia Senator Kamala "Will Blow Willie Brown for Political Power" Harris becoming the FIRST BLACK WOMAN PRESIDENT (because they play identity politics so well) with attendant disastrous results.
If this happens, then the crap that was pulled as Obama left office and with the remnants of his appointees still running the FBI and CIA and IRS still in place will be de rigeuer and we all can kiss the America we knew goodbye.
..this says it all: they are navigating the only course they can through perilous waters. In other words:
"Sorry DACA folks, we are jettisoning you because we have to deal with an electorate that sees through our perfidy. You never were really important to us anyway."
Back from the dead, GOP hopes for mid terms jump on improving poll numbers
The Christmas season was not a very jolly one for Republicans. Donald Trump's approval numbers were near historic lows while the so-called generic ballot measuring the relative strength of both parties saw the Democrats with a double digit lead.
But then came tax reform, which has proven to be even more popular than Republicans hoped. A Trump facedown with Democrats ended in the opposition's surrender on the funding bill, and a state of the union speech by Trump that received overwhelming positive response.
On top of all that, the economy is booming, interest rates are low, consumer confidence is high, and the economic outlook for the year is for more of the same.
The result of all this is that the president's approval numbers have shot up and the gap between the GOP and Democrats on the generic ballot has narrowed considerably.
But, lest you think this is over, Han Solo has some advice for you.
Dribbling out like a bad case of the Hershey Squirts. Here's an FNS interview that came out contemporaneously with the Brett Baier interview with Devin Nunes posted previously. Again, Sara Carter is on this like white on rice. Here she foretells of a second dossier:
Like they said in Apocalypse Now, "Oh man, the {Dem] bullshit piled up so fast..you needed wings to stay above it!"
Ruminating on how the aftermath of the memo is shaking out on Meet the Depressed and the other outlets' propaganda feeds, not that i would ever watch them, it seems that the battle lines are being formed now and -- in keeping with the subject of this post -- the Dems are on the short end of the stick in that they have to defend their untenable position that government agencies' activities must not see the light of day "in order to preserve national security".
Of course, this is bullshit!
Not only does it fly in the face of their positions in the past (Watergate, the Pentagon papers, etc.) more recently, it aligns with their attempts to move the events on with respect to the Clintons (Bubba feeling up interns and groping women; Hillary's shameless "Government Influence for sale") and notably, Obama's criminally thuggish activities during his administration (especially the IRS coverup; the most comparable example weaponization of a federal agency).
This matter will be confronting them until AT LEAST November when, as a result of their inept explanations and weaseling, they may see their precious "blue wave" crash on the shore to no effect.
It also should be noted that they are severely broke. Chew on this:
They lose in November and the downward spiral continues until they are nothing but a smoking hole in the ground.
..but, as Han Solo said to Luke Skywalker, "Don't get cocky, kid!"
Here is an interview with Congressman Nunes and Brett Baier of Fox News re the FISA memo released yesterday. Except for the fact that Baier would not let him get a word out edgewise with constant interruptions, it reveals some pretty interesting facts!
A big stink is growing up around the fact that one of the perps in FISA MemoGate is Nellie Ohr is the wife of DOJ employee Bruce Ohr and she is also an employee of Fusion GPS. Among the stink that surrounds her is the fact that she obtained an FCC amateur radio license back in May 2016. This is woven into a conspiracy theory that supposedly points to the fact that she used her radio privileges to transmit clandestine, encrypted data to the CIA or something.
Well, I am not one to defend any of these slime bags, but, as an amateur radio operator myself, I can tell you that this is wandering into "tinfoil hat" territory big time. She may very well have gotten her amateur radio license but it would be absolutely foolish to assume that she did so for the purpose of communicating with the CIA or other agencies. Why create a traceable item with the FCC when it is just as easy to "bootleg" frequencies for clandestine transmissions? Besides, Part 97 of the FCC regs forbid transmission of encrypted data by amateur radio ops.
Anyway, just to satisfy my curiosity, I looked up her address using QRZ.com and the address of the CIA, converted both to LAT LON and calc'ed the line-of-site distance between those two points. Amazingly, it turns out as shown below!
Holy shit! That's just 7 miles! Certainly close enough to make a SIMPLEX link between those to points with as little as 50 watts or less power -- VHF or UHF. But that said, I am puzzled why she would want to create a data point with a federal agency when she could have just gotten a couple of business band radios and bootlegged a piece of spectrum to do the deed.
..oh wait! I hear some black helicopters overhead!
"After all that is said and done, more is said than done."
Nancy Pelosi Cherry Picking (courtesy Scooter, Big Hairy News)
That old aphorism is proving to be true this evening as the FISA memo was unleashed on a "suspecting world". Predictably, the Dems came off their pre-release stance of our DOJ, FBI, government, way of life, western civilization, and all creation coming to an end if the three-and-one-quarter page executive summary of the Reader's Digest version of the immense, steaming pile of evidence of what an immense, steaming pile of shit the forces allied under Barack Obama and Hillary created to deny Trump the White House and usher old Hippo Flanks into be coronated. They adopted their post-release view that it is big nothing burger (cue Clara Peller) and that it was a "cherry picked" summation of the aforesaid steaming pile.
By the way, the "cherry picking" meme got wide distribution among the left. It was symptomatic of your basic DNC talking points release where all commentaries are suffused with shockingly similar phrases. I looked for a witty, satirical compendium of this on YouTube but none was to be had..as yet.
While all of the media -- left, right, center, top, bottom, sideways -- dove deep into this, gnawing on every piece of of gristle, consuming every globule of fat, and loudly belching out their unsubstantiated opinions, all lost sight of the fact that this race is not a sprint but rather has miles to go before the finish line hoves into view.
About the best bloviation (from my point of view) was Tucker Carlson's show this date. Here is his opening including a discussion with Joseph Digenova and Tom Fitton that is compelling. I actually commend the entire show to you as he gets into it with some little pre-pubescent shitstain congressman from California who can't string any coherent rebuttals together to counter Tucker's inquiries and ends up calling him an agent of Vladimir Putin. Carlson got so mad he threw the guy off his show and then recorded a followup comment telling the audience that the guy is a hemorrhoid. (Well, words to that effect.)
I posted this madly on several blogs advising to the younger among us that they should not be crestfallen because the usual suspects were not instantly shackled and frog marched into law enforcement vans and the guillotine was not erected in the town square to start processing the offenders into shorter editions of themselves.
Naw, mate, unlike the gratifying diarrhea-induced bowel movement whose cramps grip your lower colon like a vice and then ends with the pleasurable thunder of expulsion, this will be like one of those nagging cold sores on your lip or a patch of festering boils on your ass. The pain, irritation, and agony will be drawn out for several months.
Sara Carter (the tenacious FNS reporter-ette who has done yeoperson's duty on this story) said somewhere that this is just 10% of the fecal matter lined up for the blower. If true and if Watergate is a valid yardstick, then the Dems are looking at this roasting their asses until AT LEAST November. If the GOPe doesn't fuck this up, then they will be able to keep Nancy Pelosi, the hapless and incessantly chanting MaxiPad Waters, and the rest of the Dem cabal in a lather until they all turn into grease spots on the carpets of the halls of Congress.
Because this blog is more or less a collection of my thoughts, I thought I'd chronicle my escapades on the other other blogs. Please pardon the self-indulgence. If you do not like it, head on over to Gateway Pundit and tell Jim Hoft that he can pound sand.
OK, that's it. I am saving myself for the long haul and am outta here!
"Now Bring us a FIA memo
Bring us a FISA memo
..and bring it right here!"
It's getting to look a lot like Christmas, innit? Soon we shall know, fellow babies!
Just to reiterate something I hear on Tucker Carlson tonight. Rep Jim Jordan, when being interviewed by Tucker, said - in the following approximate words - that congresspersons would be free to comment AFTER the memo was released.
Of course they would! And that is why the Democrats are scared shitless. Because so long as a congressman, when questioned, can refer points of the memo to the underlying documents without exposing TS data, the points int he memo can be amplified and the controversy will essentially rage out of control to the Dems' and media's detriment.
