Well, @MonaEltahawy Is Indisputably Correct: Max Blumenthal Is a Douchebag

Posted on | July 4, 2013 | 45 Comments

Mona Eltawahy: Almost as evil as Amanda Marcotte.

Not since Alec Baldwin went ballistic over the “toxic little queen” have we seen a liberal Twitter meltdown quite as spectacular as what happened to Mona Eltahawy on Wednesday. It had something to do with the coup in Egypt, about which my natural instinct was to make sarcastic references about the folly of Obama administration foreign policy and toward foreigners in general. Because they’re weird-looking and talk funny, that’s why. But I digress . . .

Mona Eltahawy’s career as a progressive journalist is a tribute to her infinite reservoir of hate. Unlike some liberals, she doesn’t stop at hating Republicans, conservatives and Christians. She also hates America, she hates white people, she hates Israel and she hates men. If hate were football, Mona Eltahaway would be the Super Bowl champion.

So, Mona the Hate Queen is a native of Egypt who moved back there in March in order to become as much of a pain in the ass to them as she has been to America. But then she had to go back to New York to face trial for defacing Pamela Geller’s anti-jihad posters. After the coup went down Wednesday, Mona was a hot property and she got on Twitter to explain what an exhausting day she had doing eight “media hits” (i.e., interviews on TV or radio). This was mocked by her fellow lefties as an act of journalistic self-promotion:

Rather than ignore such jibes, Mona  reached into her infinite reservoir of hate and started dropping f-bombs like the RAF over Dresden:


Was this tirade justified? Mona the Hate Queen’s point, as she subsequently explained, was about what she sees as a sexist double standard, whereby women are criticized as “attention-seeking” for doing the same kind of self-promotion that men do.

However, men don’t always get a free pass for self-promotion. Being a shameless self-promoter myself, I sometimes get irritated blowback from people who get tired of hearing me explain how wonderful I am.

What I think inspired the sarcastic jibes about Mona the Hate Queen is that rather than celebrating — “Woo-hoo! Eight media hits!” — she whined about how exhausting it was to meet the evidently insatiable media demand for her commentaries. And her eruption at her critics was a sort of feminist performance art: “Look at me repeatedly saying ‘f–k’ to men on Twitter! Praise my courage! Admire me!”

No decent person would ever praise or admire a monster like Mona Eltahawy, who rivals even Amanda Marcotte for Satan’s affection. Yet neither can anyone doubt that Max Blumenthal is a contemptible douchebag. He is to journalism what herpes is to sex. So at least for once, Mona Eltahawy spoke truth to power douchebag.

Andrew Breitbart always hated Max Blumenthal. There are scenes of Andrew’s epic CPAC confrontation with Max in Hating Breitbart. I’ll see if I can find a clip and embed it in an update. In the meantime, here is Mona Eltahaway looking weird and talking funny as she explains to CNN’s Jake Tapper that the military takeover in Egypt was not actually a “coup,” because that might be bad or something.

Russia Says ‘Nyet’ to Gay Adoptions

Posted on | July 4, 2013 | 28 Comments

Vladimir Putin signed a law yesterday that prevents gay foreigners from adopting Russian children and, in the course of researching a news article about it, I was somewhat surprised:

The government says the law aims to protect children from “dictated non-traditional sexual behavior” and cites “psychologists’ research” about stresses it says “are often experienced by children raised by same-sex parents.” . . .
Since his re-election last year, Putin “has embraced the Russian Orthodox Church as a moral authority and harnessed its influence as a source of political support,” according to the Reuters news agency. Russia does not recognize same-sex marriage, and Putin complained last month that protesters and journalists keep “pestering” him about the issue. Last week, Putin signed a controversial new law against ”propagating homosexuality among minors” . . .

You can read the rest at ViralRead, but my take on it is that this is not really about Putin pushing an anti-gay agenda so much as it is about Russians getting sick and tired of the non-stop agitation. And ironically, considering that it was the Bolsheviks who pioneered “political correctness,” Russian society now doesn’t have the kind of hegemonic institutional bias that acts as a filter on public discourse in the U.S.

Whereas we have a national meltdown over “homophobia” because a celebrity with a bad temper goes off on a gossip writer, it seems Russians haven’t been so endlessly tutored on this subject. They have become fed up with being told by international busybodies that they have to embrace the gay-right agenda. The Russian cultural elite is evidently not as monolithic as ours. So the phenomenon of the minority tail wagging the national dog (whereby the 97 percent of Americans who are heterosexual automatically flinch in fear of being criticized for being less than enthusiastic about gay rights) doesn’t work in Moscow as effectively as it does in the United States.

Now that Russia has actually made it illegal to promote homosexuality to kids, small wonder they banned U.S. adoptions of Russian children. These days, American education system scarcely seems to teach anything else except the gay agenda.

But maybe our public schools still aren’t teaching the gay agenda as thoroughly as some “activists” would prefer . . .

From West Virginia To Wroclaw

Posted on | July 4, 2013 | 16 Comments

— by Wombat-socho


This week’s book post unfortunately has nothing to do with Gettysburg or Independence Day (because all my relevant books are in storage), though I do recommend that you pick up Michael Shaara’s The Killer Angels if you haven’t already read it; Gingrich and Forstchen’s Gettysburg is also worth reading (along with its sequels Grant Comes East and Never Call Retreat) if you like alternate history Civil War novels.


While recovering from getting a tooth pulled yesterday, I took the time to get partially caught up on what has come to be known as the “Ring of Fire” series of novels, by Eric Flint and an ensemble of co-authors. The series starts in 1632* when the West Virginia town of Grantsville suddenly finds itself in the middle of the Thirty Years War. From that point, the history of the war diverges considerably (and entertainingly) from our timeline, and within a couple of years Grantsville has become the center of the United States of Europe. This collection of (mostly) German and (mostly) Lutheran states under King of the Swedes Gustavus Adolphus is busily trying to adapt 20th -or at least 19th- century technology to the 17th century proto-industrial base while also trying to spread democracy and religious toleration without setting off a gigantic wave of peasant revolts all across Central Europe. Flint and most of his co-authors do a good job with these books, but I have come to the conclusion that one of his co-authors needs to be avoided in the future unless I badly need something to make me bored and sleepy.


After finishing 1634: The Bavarian Crisis , I’ve come to the conclusion that Virginia DeMarce is the literary equivalent of the cook who could burn water. Given a plot line involving a mad king of Bavaria, his unwilling Austrian fiancee, a pair of kidnapped Grantsburg women, and a siege conducted by a sulfurous Swedish general, DeMarce manages to turn it into a 700-page slog through all manner of minor characters’ lives, many of whom have -at best- tangential relation to the main plot line. My rule of thumb is that any novel requiring family trees to explain the relationships of characters who are not main characters is a waste of my time, and probably yours, too, unless you really enjoy convoluted soap operas masquerading as historical novels set in an alternate history. Adding to the boredom is the interminable reflections of the major characters on their fates in our timeline, as if that had very much relevance to their current situation after Grantsville had been mucking up history for going on three years. I don’t recommend it (or her previous collaborations with Flint, The Ram Rebellion and The Dreeson Incident) unless you are a completeness freak, and even then you might want to think twice.


On the other hand, when left to his own devices, Eric Flint does a damn good job. 1635: The Eastern Front begins with Gustavus Adolphus’ decision to reduce the treacherous Saxons and Brandenburgers to obedience, a decision which almost immediately results in war with Poland. Flint manages to juggle a number of other political subplots and minor (but nonetheless important) characters without getting bogged down in pointless minutiae, and winds up delivering something that is less a historical novel set in an alternate history than a technothriller using a weird mix of 17th, 19th and 20th century technologies. He manages to do this, moreover, in just 369 pages, only five of which are spent on a list of characters.


I’m currently reading (and expect to spend a fair bit of the weekend re-reading) Michael Flynn’s On the Razor’s Edge, which I’ll write about next week along with its three outstanding prequels.


Administrative note: There will be no Live At Five today or Friday, no FMJRA on Saturday unless Smitty wants to do one, and no Rule 5 Sunday until Monday since I’m going to be off the Internet all weekend.


*The book’s Kindle edition is currently free for the downloading if you want to try the series on.

A Career Opportunity My Guidance Counselor Never Bothered to Mention

Posted on | July 3, 2013 | 43 Comments

Who was ever more qualified for this job than me? If I had only known there was a need for courageous public servants to perform body-cavity searches on bikini-clad women, certainly I would have been willing to serve — courageously, I might add — performing this duty to protect my fellow citizens from the menace of unlicensed vaginas.

Indeed, for many years, I provided this service on a volunteer basis, as a sort of vagina vigilante. But for some reason, no one ever told me that people get paid to do that kind of work in Texas, and so instead I pursued a career in journalism. Alas, what might have been . . .

Was the CIA Involved in Egypt’s Coup?

Posted on | July 3, 2013 | 72 Comments

Anyone who knows the Central Intelligence Agency’s history in orchestrating the overthrow of governments must be wondering whether the agency played a role in the collapse of the Morsi regime.

My hunch? Certainly they did, and we should be glad for it. Morsi’s government was a dangerous proto-fascist Islamic thugocracy.

Think about this: President Obama, John Kerry and other top administration officials have spent the past two years watching the “Arab Spring” turn into a bloody and disastrous failure. The Morsi government was unpopular and unstable, and it might have given way to a totalitarian Islamic dictatorship or the kind of chaotic “failed state” anarchy that could turn Egypt into a base for al-Qaeda.

Would that be good for Democrats in the 2014 elections? In 2016?

No, the endless mess in Syria is bad enough, and to have Egypt descend into a nightmare would have been added to Libya in the Republican indictment of Democrat foreign-policy failure.

So it is not difficult to imagine a series of meetings and phone calls in which top U.S. intelligence officials were told, in effect, see what we can do to influence events in Egypt in a “good” direction. Who can doubt that other intelligence agencies, probably the British and French, and of course the Israelis, were also working in the same direction?

Would CIA influence on events in Egypt involve anything illegal or particularly “spooky”? Probably not. It would most likely involve some basic communication and liaison work, to make sure that the generals taking over would be people we could work with, and to help them organize the takeover in an efficient manner.

The CIA used to do this kind of stuff all the time back during the Cold War, under both Democrat and Republican presidents, and the coup in Egypt appears to have been accomplished so quickly and with so little violence as to please any old-time Agency man.

If the secrets of CIA operations in Egypt the past few weeks were leaked to Glenn Greenwald, would he approve? No, of course not.

But f–k Glenn Greenwald. Way to go, CIA.

UPDATE: My conservative friends are skeptical of my theory that the New and Improved Nixon-Like Obama would be so cynical as to deploy the CIA to fix the Egyptian problem the way the Agency fixed the “Iran problem” in 1953 or the “Guatemala problem” in 1954. Ladd Ehlinger Jr. points out this very interesting article:

Army concern about the way President Mohamed Morsi was governing Egypt reached tipping point when the head of state attended a rally packed with hardline fellow Islamists calling for holy war in Syria, military sources have said.
At the June 15th rally, Sunni Muslim clerics used the word “infidels” to denounce both the Shias fighting to protect Syrian president Bashar al-Assad and the non-Islamists that oppose Mr Morsi at home.
Mr Morsi himself called for foreign intervention in Syria against Mr Assad, leading to a veiled rebuke from the army, which issued an apparently bland but sharp-edged statement the next day stressing that its only role was guarding Egypt’s borders.
“The armed forces were very alarmed by the Syrian conference at a time the state was going through a major political crisis,” said one officer, whose comments reflected remarks made privately by other army staff.

This is interesting, as I say, but does not preclude the possibility of CIA influence in Egyptian affairs. Besides which, I’ve staked out the Google bomb on this, so that when any conspiracy theorist or paranoid Islamic radical searches for “Egypt + coup + CIA,” that traffic’s coming straight to me, baby. Pragmatic? You betcha.

Egyptians Say Good-Bye to ‘Arab Spring,’ Say Hello to New Military Dictatorship

Posted on | July 3, 2013 | 43 Comments

It tells us a lot about the Obama administration’s foreign policy “success” that, after his encouragement of pro-democracy movements in the Arab world, the Egyptians actually rioted to demand that the military take over and relieve them of the “democratic” government they had elected. Ben Shapiro reports at Breitbart.com:

On Wednesday, Gen. Abdel Fatah Said Al-Sisi announced a military coup in Egypt. He said that the Constitution had been suspended, that early elections would take place, and that there would be a “code of ethics” for the media.

There is a big stack of aggregation at Memeorandum. It’s really sad to say that “democracy” in Egypt was a very bad idea to begin with, and to hope that the general’s talk of elections is a lie. To view democracy as a principle — as a litmus test of governmental legitimacy without regard for what any elected regime may do — is the kind of nonsense that political science professors may claim to believe, but this ignores the horrors that have been inflicted upon innocents by democratic governments. For example, Detroit . . .

UPDATE: Speaking of failed democracies:

By God, @SarahPalinUSA Is Right!

Posted on | July 3, 2013 | 237 Comments

Last week, a Breitbart News article highlighted Sarah Palin’s criticism of the “Gang of Eight” immigration bill, and on Sunday, she wrote a Facebook post excoriating this “bipartisan” sellout:

Great job, GOP establishment. You’ve just abandoned the Reagan Democrats with this amnesty bill, and we needed them to “enlarge that tent” of which you so often speak. It’s depressing to consider that the House of Representatives is threatening to pass some version of this nonsensical bill in the coming weeks.

Palin went on to say that many Americans, herself included, “are barely hanging on to our enlistment papers in any political party,” denouncing both parties as “dysfunctional political machines.”

Hear! Hear! Attagirl, Sarah! You tell ’em!

Then, in response to my friend Josh Painter, Governor Palin said she liked his suggestion of joining forces with Mark Levin to create a new “Freedom Party” if the GOP continues its drift toward abandoning a commitment to core American values. This comment was picked up by the Daily Caller’s Jeff Poor (who has always hated Sarah Palin with a blind fury) and was in turn seized on by a Red State diarist who, in order to illustrate his post, used a Photoshopped image to mock Palin.

By a strange chain of events — having missed the build-up of the brewing controversy — I learned of this via Stacy Drake, who slammed the dishonesty of the Red State attack. Quite frankly, a lot of Palin supporters have been bitter toward Red State since 2011, when Erick Erickson went out of his way to mock them. But let us lay aside these ancient quarrels to ask: Is Sarah Palin right?

Not only is she right to oppose this amnesty sellout, but the resentment toward GOP leadership she expresses touches on key aspects of a criticism that the most astute minds in the conservative movement have been making for many, many years. Readers already acquainted with this critique will excuse me for taking time here to explain to new readers the historical and philosophical background.

The perennial problem of the Republican Party is that they are a party of ideas, whereas Democrats are a party of people. That is to say, the GOP since the era of Reagan has been devoted to a philosophy of conservatism — an ideology — while by contrast, the Democrats sit around identifying specific voter groups (labor union members, women, blacks, gays, etc.), telling them that the Republicans are their mortal enemies, and then pitching them with promises: “We’re on your side. We’re your friends. Vote for us and we’ll give you X, Y and Z.”

Republicans succeed when they are led by spokesmen who can clearly articulate a conservative philosophy, and who consistently point out the Democrats’ history of dishonesty and failure: Even if you could trust Democrats to do what they say they’re going to do (which by the way, you can’t) their policies don’t work, have never worked and never will work. People who vote Democrat in the belief that Democrats will fix their problems always end up with worse problems.

Want to see what Democrats do for their “friends”? Go to Detroit.

Republicans fail when they lack confidence in their own beliefs and instead offer voters a “Me, Too” agenda of Democrat Lite. This has been a GOP problem since the era of Herbert Hoover, at least, and was a basic reason why William F. Buckley Jr. and a number of other like-minded people organized what we now know as Movement Conservatism during the 1950s. It is a sad fact that many of those who today claim to be conservatives have never really studied the development of this movement. Too much of this history has either been forgotten or twisted by liberal authors (e.g., Sam Tanenhaus) so as to be unrecognizable to those familiar with the actual facts.

Many of my friends of the libertarian or traditionalist persuasion (“Old Whigs,” so to speak) scorn Movement Conservatism as weak tea, a pragmatic compromise with electoral politics that lacks the radicalism of a fighting creed which can inspire a true revival. As one of my late acquaintances liked to say, the conservative movement is an oxymoron; it conserves nothing and doesn’t move anywhere.

Well, “steady licks kill the Devil,” as they say. We have seen in the past half-century that, if properly organized and properly led, the conservative movement can make real changes. But personnel is policy, and too often the ambitions of individuals — careerists seeking to make politics the vehicle of their own personal success — have put the wrong kind of people in key roles, enabling them to prevent success (and then, of course, to scapegoat others for the failure).

Ability and ambition are not always accompanied by virtue and wisdom. Quite commonly in political life, we encounter selfish people who cleverly present themselves as principled idealists, zealous for The Cause, while enriching themselves and enhancing their own influence behind the convenient camouflage of political purity.

Al Regnery once summarized this problem by saying that the success of conservatism had created opportunities for opportunists.

In other words, back when “conservative” was an unpopular label and a misunderstood idea, people could not get rich or build careers for themselves by parading beneath the banner of conservatism. But the success of the conservative movement during the Reagan era and beyond made it a popular thing — both for Republican office-seekers and for various sorts of political functionaries — to identify themselves as “conservatives,” to claim to speak for conservatism, and to assert that their particular ideas were True Conservatism.

This influx of opportunists has not only confused the public as to what “conservative” means, but it has erected an organizational infrastructure of the movement staffed by careerists more interested in their own advancement within this hierarchy — “The Ziggurat of Ambition,” as I’ve called it — than in conservatism itself.

Sarah Palin’s career on the national stage has involved some misfortunes, which the Red State diarist imperfectly summarizes:

I’ll admit, for a brief moment in 2008, I thought John McCain might actually have a chance at winning the White House. That moment was at the end of Sarah Palin’s RNC convention speech during which she took a mere 45 minutes to eviscerate the 18 months of image building that was Barack Obama’s campaign.
In 2008, to me, Sarah Palin was the “hope” and “change” the GOP could have used. Palin seemed to be more the ‘maverick’ than McCain ever was or could hope to be.
However, shortly after her convention speech, the McCain campaign took over, the Left attacked, and the rest, as they say, is history.
Now, after four years of being the quasi-professional bomb-throwing GOP outsider, Palin is tossing the idea out there that she’s open to supporting a third party.

This certainly summarizes a perception of Palin that many people might agree with, if they haven’t bothered to study Palin’s biography and to assess the fundamental problem: What happens when a successful but relatively obscure Republican with no previous exposure to high-stakes national politics is suddenly thrust into the spotlight — and finds herself surrounded by the sort of vicious backstabbing crapweasels who were running John McCain’s campaign?

Seriously: If Steve Schmidt and Nicolle Wallace are the future of the Republican Party, we are doomed beyond all hope of redemption.

Criticize Palin however you will — say she was “not ready for primetime,” call her a “bomb thrower,” accuse her of greed or excessive vanity, impugn her temperament, whatever — but you must understand this: Sarah Palin is not what’s wrong with the Republican Party.

And while I do not mean to endorse a third-party effort in 2016, Governor Palin has put her finger directly on a key problem for conservatives, namely that such leaders of the Republican Party as have joined The Gang of Eight Liars are betraying the people who elected them with the belief that those voters have no alternative.

Controlling the party apparatus and able to hire plenty of “conservative intellectuals” to endorse their betrayal as essential to the future success of the GOP, these Republicans proceed on the assumption that conservative voters are so lacking in devotion to principle that they will always vote Republican no matter what.

Governor Palin can’t say this, but I can: F–k you, “Republican leaders.”

And while we’re at it, f–k anybody who says we should roll over and accept this kind of phony “conservative” bulls–t as inevitable.

No, by God, I say we fight these bastards with everything we’ve got.

Fight them until Hell freezes over, and then fight them on the ice.

Tomorrow is the Fourth of July, a fine occasion to declare our independence from these vicious backstabbing crapweasels.

If Governor Palin is willing to help lead this fight — inside the GOP so long as there is hope, but outside the GOP if we must — then I say, “Patriots! We must conquer here or die! Rally on the Alaskan!”
 

WOLVERINES!
