Let the Paul Walker Death Crash Conspiracy Theories Begin!

Posted on Comments

Basically, all celebrity news is on hold until further notice, because the actor famous for starring in movies about high-speed street racing got killed while — wait for it — high-speed street racing.

I know, right?

Anyway, if you’re paranoid, this might seem suspicious:

Paul Walker may not have ever gotten into the car that took him to his death if it hadn’t been acting up moments before the crash … TMZ has learned.
Paul showed up Saturday for a fundraiser at Always Evolving — Roger Rodas’ high end auto shop that specializes in exotic cars. Paul had a stake in the shop.
Sources connected to Roger tell TMZ when Paul arrived … Roger was watching one of his employees try in vain to back the Carrera GT into the shop, but it kept stalling. Roger decided to take matters into his own hands … told the worker to get out and took the wheel himself.
As Roger began to back into the garage … Paul came up and said he hadn’t driven in the Porsche yet — so he jumped in the passenger seat and they took a 20 minute drive.

Did somebody say “suspicious“?

The exotic sports car in which Paul Walker violently died, crashed as a result of mechanical failure — very possibly a steering fluid leak … this according to sources closely tied to the auto shop where the vehicle was stored and maintained.
Sources connected to Always Evolving — the shop co-owned by Walker and the Porsche driver Roger Rodas — tell TMZ they saw evidence of a fluid burst and subsequent fluid trail before the skid marks at the accident scene.
The AE sources point to the fact there is a noticeable absence of skid marks until just before the point of impact. They say if Roger had lost control the skid marks would show swerving, but instead the marks were in a straight line. They feel this cements the theory the driver didn’t have steering control.

Probably the CIA or the Mossad or maybe . . . right-wing nutjobs outraged to learn that Paul Walker was a cradle-robbing creepazoid:

Paul Walker’s girlfriend is ‘broken up’ over his death as the couple were hoping for a ‘bright future’ together, MailOnline can reveal.
Jasmine Pilchard-Gosnell, 23, is being comforted by her mother Julie as she struggles to cope with the ‘horrible’ news, relatives said.
She has reportedly been dating Walker since 2006 when she was just 16 and he was 33 — but the 17-year age gap has been no barrier to them both finding love. . . .
Jasmine, a college student who lives in Santa Barbara, California, was supposedly beginning to become the step-mother to Walker’s daughter Meadow, 15, even though she is only eight years older than her.

‘Why Couldn’t It Be Scott Walker?’ Feminist Tweets After Paul Walker Killed

Posted on Comments

Paul Walker, star of the Fast and Furious action-movie series, was killed at age 40 yesterday in a car accident. Reacting to the news, Erin Gloria Ryan, news editor of the feminist site Jezebel, decided to take a cheap partisan shot at the Republican governor of Wisconsin:

To answer the question: Because he can’t afford a Porsche. But death-wishing Republicans is just a “dumb joke,” says Erin Gloria Ryan:

Erin Gloria Ryan, Jezebel News Editor,
Wishes Death on Scott Walker
After ‘Faster and Furious’ Actor Dies
— American Power

Jezebel editor on Paul Walker’s death:
Why couldn’t it have been Scott Walker?
Update: Tweets deleted
— Twitchy

Paul Walker of Fast and Furious dies
— leftists wish it was Scott Walker
— Fire Andrea Mitchell

There will be no consequences for Erin Gloria Ryan. Saying rude and tasteless things about Republicans is part of her job description.

 


How Desperate Is Sydney Leathers to Extend Her 15 Minutes of Infamy?

Posted on Comments

It is rather quaint to remember that when Sydney Elaine Leathers was first identified as the former Obama campaign worker involved in a cybersex scandal with Anthony Weiner, some were reluctant to publish her name, seeing her as the victim of a predator.

Yeah. Except she’s a tattoo-covered slut who rented herself out to old creeps she met via “sugar daddy” sites.

The plump brunette harlot immediately seized upon the scandal to launch a porn career. And then . . .

There’s no delicate and polite way to say this: Sydney discovered she doesn’t like how her vagina looks. She thinks her labia are too big.

So she’s going to get surgery to trim her enormous flapping bat wings.

TMZ says the surgery will be performed by Dr. Neal Handel of Santa Barbara, California, for the fee of $8,400. And then . . .

Sydney will auction off the trimmings, encased in Lucite.

Is there a cultural significance to this story? Does my reporting this unsavory news serve any redeeming social purpose?

What we can discern is an extreme example of a trend, the vagina as commodity, which I have previously discussed: The pervasive influence of pornography and the general promiscuity of the “hook-up” culture has created competitive pressures on women, who feel that their sexual performance is constantly being judged, evaluated as a commercial product in the erotic marketplace.

We seem to be approaching a situation in which women are expected to send nude photos of themselves via cellphone to their prospective dates, marketing their bodies and their services in quite explicit ways. The whole “revenge porn” phenomenon originates in this kind of behavior, with women sharing what they think of as private photos, only to discover that their boyfriends have shared the intimate images with the whole world. In such an environment, the sense of being judged in comparison to others is heightened.

Sydney Leathers is self-conscious about her jumbo vagina lips because everybody is going to see them — or, at least, everybody who wants to see them can pay to see them, and she’s apparently embarrassed that “you could make a winter coat” from her excess drapery, as one of the TMZ producers said.

This is wrong at so many levels, it’s hard to figure out where to start.

For example, who decided that having large labia is a bad thing?

Even if Sydney Leathers is extraordinary in this regard — and forgive me for not doing the kind of in-depth investigative journalism that would be necessary to verify this — why is that a bad thing? Isn’t there at least a niche market value for that?

Couldn’t her unusually large  labia make Sydney memorably distinctive among porn performers? “Oh, yeah — Sydney Leathers! Isn’t she the one with the gigantic pink mudflaps?”

Maybe this publicity stunt is a cry for help. Maybe there is some Sydney Leathers fan out there — perhaps a disgraced former Democratic congressman — who will say, “No, Sydney! Don’t get that surgery! I’ve always adored your incredible floppy love-lips!”

Postal Dog brought this to my attention and I’m pretty sure he doesn’t plan to bid on the Sydney Leathers labia-in-lucite auction, but at least you know who to blame for making me aware of it.

 

What? Those ‘Toxic Little Queens’ at MSNBC Don’t Want Alec Baldwin Back?

Posted on Comments

Evil Blogger Lady calls attention to the shocking news — shocking! — that the network suits aren’t eager for a return to Baldwinism:

Alec Baldwin is not welcome back at MSNBC because of his infamous angry behavior, network insiders say — including complaining that “the air at 30 Rock is too dry.”
Sources exclusively tell us that MSNBC chiefs are not exactly falling over themselves to get boisterous Baldwin back in the building. One insider said, “He would only show up at work an hour a week to prep for the show, and when he did turn up, he was in an angry mood, red-faced, and shouting at all the staff. And he said the air at 30 Rock was too dry, it was bad for his voice, he needed a humidifier.” . . .
According to Deadline.com, Baldwin’s last show hit a demo low, pulling in only 101,000 viewers aged 25 to 54 against 395,000 total viewers — a 41 percent drop from the 172,000 viewers 25 to 54 who watched the Oct. 11 debut. MSNBC suspended Baldwin this month after he hurled an anti-gay slur at a paparazzo. He apologized, “I did not intend to hurt or offend anyone with my choice of words.”

Moral of the story: You can’t be an overbearing egomaniacal a–hole on TV unless you deliver good ratings.

 


The #TexasWomenForever Baby-Killer Democrat Online Fund-Raising Flop

Posted on Comments

Last night, I noticed Amy Kremer of Tea Party Express having this discussion with someone on the #TexasWomenForever hashtag:

At the time, I didn’t realize what was happening: Sarah Silverman and Lizz Winstead were headlining a show in New York that was promoted (at the Web site LadyPartsJustice.com) as an online fundraiser for “The Lilith Fund for Reproductive Equity, Texas Equal Access Fund, Whole Woman’s Health, and Fund Texas Women.”

Alison Turkos, one of the chairs for the New York Abortion Access Fund’s board of directors, explained to ThinkProgress that there’s much more work to be done to ensure that women of all income levels can access the abortion care they need. Federal and state laws restricting taxpayer funding for abortion currently prevent millions of women from using their own insurance coverage to pay for these procedures.
“In an ideal world, we wouldn’t need abortion funds because everyone would have health insurance that includes abortion coverage. Unfortunately, we don’t yet live in that world,” Turkos noted. “Abortion funds are critical resources — the right to abortion is meaningless if it is impossible to afford the actual procedure.”
The telethon, which will be hosted in front of a live audience in New York City, will be streamed on Lady Parts Justice between 7:00 and 10:00 pm EST. The four organizations that will be benefiting from the donations — The Lilith Fund for Reproductive Equity, Texas Equal Access Fund, Whole Woman’s Health, and Fund Texas Women — will also be hosting the video feed on their own sites.

Translation: “Give money to kill Texas babies!”

Twitchy was all over this Skanky Liberal Baby-Killer Show:

Liberal comics, giant vulva
raise money for abortions in Texas

Sarah Silverman auctions off #VagNapkin

No, they are not making this up:

What’s going on here is simple: Texas passed pro-life legislation this summer limiting late-term abortion and Democrats (who are fanatically devoted to killing Texas babies) decided to make the most prominent pro-abortion Democrat in the state, Wendy Davis, the poster girl for their 2014 mid-term election campaign.

Seeking to replicate the “War on Women” theme of Obama’s 2012 campaign, and likely previewing Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign message, Democrats nationwide are pumping money into Texas and hyping the rhetoric of “women’s health” — a theme coordinated with the “community organizing” groups getting millions of federal tax dollars as “Navigators” to sign up people for ObamaCare. That may seem crazy to you or me, but I remember a few months ago it seemed crazy that Terry McAuliffe could beat Ken Cuccinelli in Virginia this way.

As fun as it is to laugh at left-wing kooks, it’s not funny at all when the kooks win elections. Texas Republicans — and especially pro-life Texas Republican women — need to get active, get loud, get organized, and make sure they beat these baby-killing Democrats next fall.

 

Michelle Malkin Rips Up Arne Duncan

Posted on Comments

The battle against “Common Core” curriculum took a weird turn last week when Education Secretary Arne Duncan blamed opposition to this nonsense on “white suburban moms who — all of a sudden — their child isn’t as brilliant as they thought they were, and their school isn’t quite as good as they thought they were.” Ri-iight.

Michelle Malkin is on the warpath:

Over the last 10 months, Common Core has imploded under withering scrutiny from the tax-paying public, informed parents and educators, and more national media. States under both Republican and Democrat governors have adopted moratoria on the untested standards, withdrawn from the costly testing consortia, and retreated from partnerships with Common Core-promoting educational software data-miners like inBloom.
There’s much more to the fight than simple left-right divisions. The Common Core peddlers include meddling, Fed Ed Republicans from Jeb Bush and Mike Huckabee to progressive billionaires Bill and Melinda Gates to Newscorp. media giant Rupert Murdoch and dozens of educational corporate special interests that stand to gain billions from the Common Core testing/textbook/data-mining boondoggle.
The Stop Common Core movement includes social conservatives, libertarians, teachers’ union members, charter school advocates, Catholic school principals, urban and suburban parents, New York City Democrats, Tea Party Republicans, homeschoolers, and concerned activists from all parts of the political spectrum concerned about the feds’ encroachment on family and student privacy.

Read the whole thing. Except for the 2006-2007 fight against John McCain’s amnesty plan, I’ve seldom seen her this fired-up.

If what’s wrong with our education system could be fixed by more federal money and more federal control, schools would have been steadily improving as federal involvement has vastly increased over the past several decades. The fact that a larger federal role in schools is not correlated with improvement — well, that’s evidence, isn’t it?

 

In Which @ABFalecbaldwin Finally Gets the Kind of Attention He Deserves

Posted on Comments

Alec Baldwin has advantages any man could envy: Wealthy, famous, good-looking, intelligent and talented, Baldwin has been a successful actor since debuting on the NBC soap opera The Doctors at age 22. His breakthrough as a major movie star came in the 1990 film adaptation of Tom Clancy’s classic Cold War thriller, The Hunt for Red October, and Baldwin was also memorable for his role as the brutal company representative Blake in 1992’s Glengarry Glen Ross. For his role as Jack Donaghy on NBC’s comedy 30 Rock, Baldwin won two Emmys, three Golden Globes, and seven Screen Actors Guild Awards.

Why, then, is Alec Baldwin so miserable and angry?

And why does it seem that, every time this high-profile progressive celebrity has a run-in with paparazzi, he starts shouting hateful slurs?

Baldwin has been suspended from his MSNBC news show, and has issued a weird public statement via Huffington Post:

I never used the word faggot in the tape recording being offered as evidence against me. What word is said right after the other choice word I use is unclear. But I can assure you, with complete confidence, that a direct homophobic slur (or indirect one for that matter) is not spoken. In the wake of referring to a tabloid “journalist” as a toxic queen, I would never allow myself to make that mistake again, nor would I expose my wife and family to the attendant ridicule. My friends who happen to be gay are baffled by this. They see me as one who has recently fought for marriage equality and has been a supporter of gay rights for many years. Now, the charge of being a “homophobic bigot,” to quote one crusader in the gay community, is affixed.

As someone who is directly opposed to the “gay rights” agenda which, in this case, Baldwin uses as a sort of Teflon shield against the accusation of “homophobia,” let me note that this situation exposes the bizarre Orwellian nature of political correctness. As long as you are supportive of a political agenda, Baldwin seems to believe, this exempts you from any criticism about your words and deeds that may seem like hypocritical betrayals of your avowed politics.

It’s like Al Gore living in a gigantic energy-sucking mansion and traveling by CO2-spewing jets and limos, even while he gets rich by preaching about global warming to the lowly plebians.

Alec Baldwin may be a misogynistic bully — but he’s pro-choice! He may scream hateful slurs — but he’s for “marriage equality”!

And our Nobel Peace Prize-winning president can drone-strike terrorists while running a vast surveillance state, yet as long as he gives lip service to the “progressive” cause, nobody on the Left is supposed to notice these mind-boggling contradictions.

Despite all his advantages, Alec Baldwin seems strangely unhappy, and his latest angry outburst has made him a laughingstock, the butt of endless jokes in a painful ritual of public humiliation. His career will probably survive this embarrassment. Like Charlie Sheen, Baldwin is such a marketable commodity in show business that it is nearly impossible for him to destroy his acting career.

Nevertheless, his humiliation could be a teachable moment — if not for him, at least for others who are watching this public meltdown with a mixture of horror and glee. Whether you like Alec Baldwin or you despise Alec Baldwin, you can learn from Alec Baldwin.

Everyone wants success. Everyone wants praise and admiration. Most people get far less success, praise and admiration than they want, while a few people seem to get much more than they deserve.

Alec Baldwin has in his lifetime reaped more success, praise and admiration than most people could ever imagine. His estimated net worth is $65 million, his reported salary is $300,000 per TV episode and he was once married to Kim Basinger, for crying out loud.

But it’s never enough, is it? Somewhere deep inside Alec Baldwin there is a gaping void, an abyss in his soul, and from that dark chasm erupt the geysers of hatred that have brought him to shame.

Perhaps some readers could suggest a cure, and perhaps we should be all grateful, for there but for the grace of God go you or I.
