Your seasonal reminder that the N in National Hockey League does not stand for los Estados Unidos, and that as long as Canada’s Sun newspapers are still publishing their Sunshine Girls, not everything has turned to crap north of the border in the Old Country*. This week’s example of Canadian pulchritude is Caroline from the Calgary Sun, who likes beer and yoga and sports. Sounds like a good combo to me.

Seems Kind of … Insurrection-y
Posted on | November 5, 2023 | Comments Off on Seems Kind of … Insurrection-y
Some insurrections are more equal than others:
A group of anti-Israel protesters who participated in a large demonstration Saturday in Washington, DC, attempted to storm the White House and chanted slogans such as “Allahu Akbar” while calling for the destruction of Israel in favor of a Palestinian state. . . .
There were reports of protesters desecrating and vandalizing war memorials in the vicinity of the White House as well . . .
Protesters also yelled obscenities about the president, whom they resent for backing Israel’s war effort against Hamas terrorists.
I’m in favor of yelling obscenities about Joe Biden, without regard to the motives of whoever does it, but I’m also in favor of rounding up everybody who yells “Allahu Akbar” and deporting them to Gaza.
The Palestinian protests are attacking the White House now

In the long and mostly inglorious history of the Washington Senators in Pete’s continual draft league, there is no team that has defeated us more often than Dom Carden’s Minnesota Twins, now the Kansas City Royals. So it was with some foreboding that our lads awaited the arrival of the Royals at RFK last week, but when the dust had cleared, Marichal and Coleman had notched their 18th and 12th victories, and Dobson had missed his 12th by *that much*. The Curly W flag continued to wave as the Senators went to the Launching Pad and took two of three from the Braves before returning home for another two wins, this time against Pete’s struggling Brewers. It probably would have been a sweep had I not started Jim Kaat in the third game, having forgotten that Pete’s lineup absolutely destroys left-handers. Still: six out of nine wins this week gets us to within 7.5 games of the A’s, and we have a long break before heading to Anaheim for a series against the Angels.

Rolling Stone Has Become the SPLC?
Posted on | November 4, 2023 | Comments Off on Rolling Stone Has Become the SPLC?
One sentence in this Rolling Stone article caught my attention:
Dolly Parton knows Kid Rock can be, uh, polarizing but she decided to release “Either Or,” her duet with the Bud Light-blasting personality anyway. In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, the Country Music (and Rock & Roll) Hall of Fame member said she could accept Kid Rock for who he is. The recording will feature on her upcoming Rockstar album.
“Of course I did that before the controversy that he had, but somebody was talking to me the other day, ‘How could you do this [song] with Kid?’” she said. “I said, ‘Hey, just because I love you don’t mean I don’t love Kid Rock. Just because I love Kid Rock don’t mean I don’t love you.’ I don’t condemn or criticize. I just accept and love.” (Note: It’s unclear which controversy Parton was referring to when she said she recorded it “before the controversy,” since Billboard has a timeline of Rock gaffes that goes back to 2004.)
(Hat-tip: Instapundit.) If you tune into tonight’s episode of The Other Podcast (7 p.m. ET), you’ll probably hear my friend John Hoge, who used to be a recording engineer in Nashville, share some Dolly Parton anecdotes which (as usual with John’s anecdotes) won’t have anything to do with the point I’m trying to make, which is that many journalists nowadays seem to think it’s their job to act like Grand Inquisitors pursuing heretics. Like the Southern Poverty Law Center, they compile dossiers on people who’ve somehow strayed into Wrongthink, so that they can expose these Thought Criminals and destroy their careers.
Let’s be clear about what the glib phrase “cancel culture” actually means: The Left wants to prevent anyone who disagrees with them from earning a living in any occupation that has cultural or political influence. If you look at the climate on university campuses, you see what we’re facing if this neo-Stalinist project succeeds. “Cancel culture” is a very serious thing, and its methods are being enthusiastically embraced by journalists like this Rolling Stone writer who gleefully exults, “A-ha! We have here a list of every ‘gaffe’ that Kid Rock ever made!” To wit:
May 2011: Defends Use of Confederate Flag
Rock was slammed for his notorious use of the Confederate flag onstage and accused of racism by protesters, which he defended was an act of homage to his idols Lynyrd Skynyrd. “I’ve never flown that flag with any hate in my heart. Not one ounce,” Rock said after receiving an award from the NAACP’s Detroit chapter for his work in the community. “I love America. I love Detroit, and I love Black people.”
Love that adjective “notorious.” Some first-class objectivity there. It would be both unnecessary and tedious for me to recount here what I’ve explained before that, in the 1970s, when Lynyrd Skynyrd toured the world with a giant Confederate battle flag as their stage backdrop, the flag was seen as signifying a regional identity, not a symbol of racist belief.
Jimmy Carter was president, OK? He was the first president from the Deep South elected in a long, long time, and expressions of Southern pride were not remotely controversial in the 1970s, when the whole family tuned into CBS on Friday night to watch The Dukes of Hazzard, with Bo and Luke Duke riding in the General Lee.
Maybe it was Daisy Duke that most of us tuned in for, but the point is, nobody in 1979 was looking at that and yelling, “White supremacy!”
Is it surprising that Kid Rock, who was 7 years old when The Dukes of Hazzard began its seven-season run on CBS, should think the Confederate flag is cool? He grew up in the Detroit suburbs of Macomb County, Michigan, and nobody ever accused him of racism — “RAAAAACISM!” — until he openly supported the Republican Party.
But sure, anyone associated with that flag is a racist.
Oh, y’all expected us to forget that one, did you? In their attempt to turn America into a one-party totalitarian dictatorship, Democrats emulate Stalin in their efforts to re-write history and erase any “problematic” issues from the past that might impede their ambitions. But while we’re expected to forget anything that reflects unfavorably on the Democratic Party, liberal journalists emulate the SPLC in compiling dossiers on their chosen enemies, chronicling every “gaffe” and controversy that might aid their character assassination campaigns.
Dolly Parton wants no part of this vindictive agenda:
Speaking of God, Parton invoked her faith in the interview as the reason why she doesn’t like cancel culture. “I think that’s terrible,” she said of cancel culture. “We all make mistakes. We don’t all get caught at it. But also when somebody makes a mistake, it depends on who they are. That’s what God is there for.
“Now I happen to believe in God; I’m a faith-based person, so therefore I am able to see it like that,” she said. “A lot of people don’t, but even still, everybody deserves a second chance. You deserve to be innocent until you’re proven guilty. Even when you’re proven guilty, if God can forgive you, so can I. If God can forgive you, we all should forgive one another.”
Amen, sister! And speaking of forgiveness, forgive me for reminding you of the Five Most Important Words in the English Language:

‘The Freedom Struggle’
Posted on | November 3, 2023 | Comments Off on ‘The Freedom Struggle’
Did you know that Jews are 44% of undergraduate students at Tulane University? Why does this notorious party school in New Orleans — Andrew Breitbart’s alma mater — have such a disproportionate number of Jewish students? My guess is that, because of anti-Jewish discrimination at Ivy League schools in the name of “diversity,” there are a lot of high-achieving Jewish students shopping around for non-Ivy schools with an academic program good enough to qualify graduates for law school, medical school, etc., and Tulane fits that description. Plus, it’s in New Orleans, a funky Spanish-moss-draped old city that has an “exotic” appeal to students from Connecticut or wherever. (For similar reasons, you get a lot of kids from up north attending Charleston College or Savannah College of Art and Design — Yankees just love that whole “quaint” Southern Gothic vibe with live oaks and Spanish moss.)
If you’re a Hamas supporter who wants to express hatred of Jews, what better place to do it than at Tulane University?
Anti-Israel protesters assaulted multiple people at Tulane University in New Orleans on Oct. 26, the most serious being after Jewish students at a rally responded to those aboard a truck who attempted to set an Israeli flag on fire. Several arrests were made. None of those arrested were students, and all have been banned from campus.
A rally organized by Tulane4Palestine, a group that was created a week earlier, was called for 12:30 p.m. at Freret and McAlister. Pro-Israel students took up a position across the street, holding Israeli flags and posters of Israelis who were abducted by Hamas on Oct. 7.
At the same time, Tulane Hillel was co-hosting an Antisemitism Awareness Week event with the university and the Anti-Defamation League, recommending a particular route to the building to avoid the demonstration. Hillel also encouraged students “not to engage in conflict.” . . .
Let me interrupt for a minute to call this to your attention: The pro-Palestinian group had been organized ad hoc, and they deliberately chose to stage their protest in the vicinity of the Hillel event for Antisemitism Awareness Week. Which is to say, this was a deliberate provocation. Now we return to the story:
Tulane President Michael Fitts, in a message to Tulane students on Oct. 26, said the rally “was intentionally staged on the public sidewalk… over which we do not have control.” The block in question connects two sections of the campus but is not technically part of Tulane.
Tulane4Palestine had distributed a map showing where to meet on the public side, cautioning to stay on the sidewalk and not enter the street or the campus territory on the other side of the street. . . .
(In other words, these Jew-hating thugs knew exactly how to avoid having their provocative rally shut down by university authorities.)
Dylan Mann, a Jewish freshman studying homeland security at Tulane, told JNS that he saw Jewish students waving Israeli flags and handing out fliers about kidnapped hostages. Across the street, others were rallying against Israel and its actions in the Gaza Strip after the Hamas attacks on Oct. 7. Soon, the two groups were responding to one another.
The protesters “were screaming hateful things like ‘From the river to the sea’ and calling us ‘genocide supporters’,” Mann told JNS. “I knew at that point, I wasn’t going to leave. I was gonna stay.”
The pro-Israel activists began calling those across the street “terrorists,” and “it got very hateful very quickly,” he said.
A red pickup truck with two people in the back passed the rallies a few times, then stopped. While one person in the back of the truck waved a Palestinian flag, another began to burn an Israeli flag, and a pro-Israel student ran to the truck to grab it. The person waving the Palestinian flag started hitting the pro-Israel student with a flag pole, and Mann intervened to try to protect the student. The person who had tried to burn the Israeli flag gave a double-barreled middle finger to the pro-Israel crowd.
“The driver starts punching me, and there were a couple of people who joined them,” Mann told JNS. “That’s where someone blindsides me with the megaphone and hits me in the face. And they instantly broke my nose with that.”
You can read the whole thing, but you get the general idea. This group, “Tulane4Palestine,” isn’t officially recognized by the university and was started from scratch in the immediate aftermath of the Hamas attack on Israel with the obvious purpose of harassing Jews at Tulane.
Well, the aftermath of that has been . . . interesting:
The New Orleans-based Tulane Students for Palestine, which the university does not recognize as an official student group, on Wednesday took to Instagram to defend its use of the slogan, “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free,” which calls for the Jewish state’s annihilation. That slogan, the group said, is merely a call for a state in which “all people, including Jews, could live as equals.” The group also dismissed the threat of Palestinian terrorism, arguing that “white supremacy” is a larger threat to the Jewish people than what it called “the struggle for Palestinian liberation.”
“What we have seen for far too long is that it is Israel and the fantasy of Zionism that results in the expulsion and mass killing of Palestinians, not the other way around,” the video says. “The biggest threat to us as Jews is and has always been white supremacy, not the struggle for Palestinian liberation and self-determination. You are hurting Jews and Palestinians when you conflate the freedom struggle with white supremacy.”
There’s a word for this, and that word is insane.
You can click here to see the full video on Instagram, but when I say it’s insane, I don’t mean to dismiss the danger of this rhetoric. Nor do I think Instapundit’s “LOL” reaction is meant to be dismissive. What he means, I suppose, is that it’s ridiculous for anyone to claim that the “biggest threat” to Jews in America is “white supremacy,” just as it’s absurd to suggest that the Hamas “from the river to the sea” slogan means anything other than the annihilation of every Jew in Israel. (Hamas leaders have been explicit about what this slogan means, even apart from the obvious definitive aspect of their murderous attack on innocent Israeli civilians.)
To a certain kind of left-winger, however, the real enemy — “the biggest threat” — must always be right-wing, and so “white supremacy” is the bogeyman, rather than the Hamas fanatics who are killing Jews. The use of the phrase “freedom stuggle” in this context reminds me of Borat: “Throw the Jew down the well, so my country can be free!”
The “Tulane4Palestine” crew go to great lengths trying to distinguish between anti-Zionism and anti-Semitism, but if the end result of both is dead Jews, what difference does it make? And you’ll note a similar theme in how the Left claims that being against “white supremacy” is different than being anti-white, but if you pay close enough attention, you may start to think this also is a distinction without a difference.
Buck Throckmorton at AOSHQ highlighted these tweets:
Look. The dominant culture of all our institutions has promoted hatred of white people as not only acceptable, but admirable.
Do you think they’re gonna be bothered by antisemitism? Really?
Perhaps we should have rejected that initial premise, huh.

An Addition to the ‘Do Not Date’ List
Posted on | November 2, 2023 | Comments Off on An Addition to the ‘Do Not Date’ List
Say hello to Gigi Chapman of Manchester, England. Probably some readers are saying, “Why must I put Gigi’s name on my ‘Do Not Date’ list? She’s thousands of miles away, on the other side of the ocean.” Trust me, friends, there is no such thing as too careful in this case. Gigi has an Instagram page that you probably don’t want to see — don’t say I didn’t warn you — as well as an OnlyFans (!!!) and she seems devoted to the “swingers” lifestyle. Some people might be so lonely and desperate as to be tempted to investigate this “lifestyle,” and who knows? After a drink or two — or seven or eight — maybe you’d be in such a mood as to say to yourself, “Gosh, that 230-pound woman over there seems kind of nice.”
Far be it from me to judge people on what they might do under the influence of loneliness, desperation and seven or eight drinks. But I am here to warn you lonely fellows — as I say, you can’t be too careful — to enter the name Gigi Chapman on your “Do Not Date” list.
You should take my word about this, but probably some readers — O, ye of little faith! — may wonder what merits this strong warning. Trust me when I say, you don’t want to know the answer to that question.
But of course, if you trusted me, you would have just done what I told you to do, added Gigi’s name to your “Do Not Date” list, and moved on. But no, you self-important skeptical types think you deserve more information, and insist on knowing what Gigi has done to deserve this. And in response to your persistent inquiries, I can only answer with a question: “Can you handle it?” Are you sure you want to know?
I’ve been in this racket long enough to understand my responsibilities as a professional journalist, and if I consulted my attorney, Bert the Samoan Lawyer, he’d probably tell me I’m in the clear. Having warned you in advance, I bear no liability for whatever psychiatric trauma you may suffer, if you ignore my advice. WARNING: Whatever you do . . .
Intelligent readers always trust my advice. And meanwhile, the less-intelligent readers are frantically clicking my Amazon links trying to order a case of brain bleach, hoping to erase the horrific mental image which, by their foolish choice, they now can never forget.
Not my fault. Bert the Samoan Lawyer’s got me covered.
