Rest In Peace, Burt Reynolds

The people's actor is gone. I would say "long live the people's actor" but I don't think there is one out there now.

The Left Ruins Everything It Touches

A genius can be defined as someone who expresses your opinions better than you can. I have long done my Chicken Little best to warn about the destructive nature of the Left. Destruction--not of the creative destruction variety. No, they practice destruction that is pure and absolute--is the currency of the Left.

Everything they touch, turns to feces. Think San Francisco. Before SF there was Detroit and Flint and Chicago. Every major city has been ruined by the Left.

Public education.
Higher education.
Health insurance.
Hollywood.
News/Sports/Weather.
Late Night TV.
Comedy Central.
The very premise of comedy.
ESPN.
NFL.
Nike.

The above is not an exhaustive list by any means.  Let my highlighted author say it.

And because of that, when you allow the social justice crowd a foot in the door they will soon destroy the entire institution. If they can take down the Catholic Church, after all, how hard is it for them to wipe out Nike?

More insight:

While Nike’s stock was tanking on Tuesday, so was any semblance of decorum in the Senate, as theDemocrats on the Judiciary Committee — including the potential 2020 presidential nominee Kamala Harris, who apparently achieved her position largely on the strength of her reputed former status as Willie Brown’s “side piece” — followed through on a planned attempt to disrupt Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearings. And the Democrats’ foot soldiers in the audience proceeded to show their collective derrières with a cacophony of heckling, sign-holding, and farcical costume displays.

Exactly how this is supposed to affect Kavanaugh’s confirmation beyond making the Republican majority more resolute in passing his nomination to the Senate floor is a mystery. One has the strong feeling all political activism in America now, and particularly on the Democrat side, can be reduced to the simple acting-out of children.

Requiem For A Judas

Yeah yeah yeah and Benedict Arnold should be remembered as a great American general who bravely served our country.

The media LOVE Republicans. More specifically, they LOVE Republicans who lose. They LOVE Republicans who betray.  They LOVE Republicans who badmouth the base of their party. They LOVE Republicans who stand on principle, especially a principle shared with the Demomedia Complex.

McCain betrayed us in Syria.
McCain betrayed us on health care (and laughed in our faces while doing so,)
McCain betrayed us on Spygate.

Remember the death of Gerald Ford? The media were generous with their seemingly endless praise.
Ford was not a traitor. He was a good man. Why then, the boatload of accolades?

1. Ford lost to Jimmy Carter.
2. Ford was NOT Ronald Reagan.

We can argue if that was one or two Cupid arrows. Had Ford been a little more Reaganesque he might not have been challenged by the real RR and he might have defeated Mr. Peanut.

The racist, baby-killing war monger would find reincarnation of his maverick status in his overt and covert attacks on Donald Trump, Trump supporters and the Trump agenda. It is hard for me to find kind words for the Senator but out of respect for the departed, I recycle the highest praise ever heaped upon the man.

In the spirit of Clarence Darrow reminding us of the sparkling qualities of Leopold and Loeb or perhaps more like the backlot huckster pointing out that if you keep the slightly-rusted beater on he road for four years, you will have a classic on your hands, I turn this eulogy over to one of the greatest orators of our times.

HIGH PRAISE AT HIS HIGH WATER MARK

Is YouTube Scrubbing All References To Alex Jones?

Looks like YouTube is giving Alex Jones the Confederate Hero treatment. They are not just banning him and his channel, they are banning third party interviews as well.

Scroll down to see social justice at work.

There are so many angles and oddities to this story. Once more, we are reminded that we know the Left better than the Left knows us. Theirs is a mockingbird world where a consensus of opinion and verbiage is spoon fed to them minus the proverbial grain of salt.


We understand and appreciate and practice or at least acknowledge nuance. The politburo sees a successful and popular right wing propagandist. We see a slugger who can hit breathtaking home runs but we also see the 20 consecutive strikeouts. Do we want this guy in the lineup? Can we use him as a pinch-hitter? Would you buy a jar of vitamins from this man?

I started viewing AJ in 2016. In the election season, I expanded my my cultural horizons. A few additions to my daily news digest:

Former Sanders supporter and anti-corruptionist, H. A. Goodman.

Former Huffpo contributor (he got canned for reporting honestly on Hillary's health) who might be thought of as the pope of the Pizzagate cult, David Seaman.

Infowars and their comic book cast of characters.

I should mention that "comic book character" is not an insult. I define real life comic book characters as people with a different sense of proportion. They live in a literally illustrious world where talents are super powers and any and every character flaw is expressed as pure evil. At the top of my list of real life comic book figures is a man who  I have only come to respect in the past few years but for whom I hold more respect than any living human being: Donald Joseph Trump.

Back to AJ and Infowars. The super hero assembled a legion of oversized personalities: Roger Stone, Dr. Steve Pieczenik, Paul Joseph Watson, Zach, Dr. Jerome Corsi, Millennial Millie...it was a fun place to be. My jumping off point came when Jones starting selling the idea of DJT being compromised by the deep state, even being surreptitiously drugged or poisoned by those baby-raping thugs. I think otherwise.

Infowars seemed to lose a lot of followers on their Q Anon comments. As with the MSM overlords, a lot of Seventeeners do not appreciate nuance. I think some of them might have been a little too harsh in their criticisms of Jones and Corsi but I cannot referee every flame war.

A lot of lessons from the Youtube/Jones saga. First is the inability and unwillingness of the overlords to understand their rivals. In their fervor to ban dissent, they probably selected one of the lesser-influential/higher profile voices to silence. Socially and politically, the Alex Jones ban might be something like banning "Walker: Texas Ranger" reruns.

 While the actions might make sense to the political class, the rabble would probably react by asking, "Why Chuck Norris?" "Is Chuck still living?" "Isn't Norris an underrated genius?" "Do you think Mr. Octagon is getting some of that DCAA moolah?" "Is Chuckles controlled opposition?" "Is this an elaborate publicity stunt in which the alleged victim is actually a co-conspirator?"

As absurd as the Alex Jones-of-all-people-ban might appear, it is also a sobering reminder of just how powerful the tech gods happen to be. YouTube and Facebook flexed their muscles and look what happened. We should all take heed.
