‘I’m Rubber, You’re Glue,’ and Other Childish Things That Losers Say
Posted on | January 23, 2017 | 1 Comment
Name-calling proves nothing, and sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words. Nevertheless, I am in the word business. George Orwell’s famous essay “Politics and the English Language” needs to be assigned reading for everyone who wants to understand our current situation.
Because I’ve already exceeded my weekly quota of fat jokes, there isn’t much more I can say about the Women’s March on Washington. Madonna is now claiming she was quoted “out of context,” which is what liberals always say when they’re caught saying what they really mean. However, words actually do mean things, as we have been reminded:
Friday night in Seattle, a man was shot during a riotous protest outside an event at the University of Washington featuring pro-Trump speaker Milo Yiannopoulos, an editor for Breitbart.com. Police say the incident is still under investigation, but a report by the Seattle Times indicates the gunman was part of the anti-Trump mob and that he claimed to have been assaulted by the man he shot, whom he believed to be a “white supremacist.” However, friends of the victim — who is reported to be hospitalized in critical condition — say the man is actually an anti-Nazi activist who voted for Bernie Sanders in the 2016 Democrat presidential primaries.
The shooting in Seattle happened on the same day that mobs protesting President Trump’s inauguration rioted in Washington, D.C., where among other criminal acts they broke windows at a Starbucks and a Bank of America branch and burned a limousine parked outside the offices of the Washington Post. A day later, during the anti-Trump “Women’s March on Washington,” aging pop singer Madonna spoke of her violent fantasies: “Yes, I have thought an awful lot about blowing up the White House.”
“Love Trumps Hate” and “Make Racists Afraid Again” are among the slogans commonly proclaimed on banners brandished by these violent mobs. This simplistic mentality, equating Republicans with “hate” and “racism,” has the effect of dehumanizing the 63 million Americans who voted to elect Trump. The rioters and their celebrity supporters evidently believe that any American who votes Republican is not merely wrong, but evil. Anyone who doesn’t hate Trump as much as Madonna hates Trump is condemned as ignorant and unworthy of respect. Who is to blame for inciting this dangerously divisive attitude? . . .

Well, that was quite the week, eh? Desperate, flailing folk trying to find a way – any way – to prevent the God-Emperor’s Ascension, a speech by President Trump that was mercifully brief and to the point, idiot anarchists rioting in the streets (and being indicted for same), and the “Women’s” March, another Soros astroturf effort coordinated by a sharia law advocate. Lots of stuff to appreciate, or at least point at and laugh. One of the things worth appreciating is the courage of Jackie Evancho, who sang at the inauguration despite threats to her life and career; in fact, her appearance may actually have boosted her concert ticket sales.

She’s Fat, Blame Patriarchy
Posted on | January 22, 2017 | 2 Comments
Emily Ward is a chubby 23-year-old Democrat feminist who hates men, Republicans and heterosexuality, not necessarily in that order. She is the kind of girl who thinks it is a profound achievement to “come to this understanding” that she’s bisexual her senior year at Michigan State. Except this is “bisexual” as a synonym for fat, lonely and desperate, not the stylishly decadent doing-coke-with-models-during-Fashion-Week kind of bisexual. While I am strongly opposed to sexual immorality, if you’re going to be a degenerate, you don’t want to do it with obese state university girls. No — get yourself to Miami or Hollywood or the French Riviera and indulge your sinful lust with glamorous deviants, or else don’t bother. Fat chicks from MSU are not worth going to Hell for.
Being “bisexual” gives Emily Ward an excuse to celebrate Gay Pride, but in practice this just means doubling her chances of being rejected. Men don’t like her, but women don’t like her much (not that way) so it’s not even improving her chances of going to Hell, either. Anyway, she hates Republicans, which gives her life some sense of purpose, and so Emily Ward and her friends protested Saturday in Chicago:
That’s Emily on the left, wearing a BuzzFeed “Failing Pile of Garbage” shirt and holding a sign with the slogan “Men’s Rights Is Nothing,” a line spoken by Amy Poehler’s character Leslie Knope in a February 2015 episode of the NBC series Parks and Rec. That line was considered a clever retort at a time when we were just a few months into the #GamerGate controversy and mere weeks after the Rolling Stone UVA rape hoax fell apart. In other words, feminists mocking their critics was a Hollywood laugh line in February 2015, but the joke had worn thin by the time the election rolled around in November 2016.
And that’s a capsule summary of what went wrong for Democrats, really. Sometime in late 2014, liberals decided that playing the “feminist” card was the best way to guarantee Hillary Clinton’s election in 2016. This meant that we spent two years being constantly bombarded with feminist messages — from TV sitcoms to cable-news documentaries to an endless outpouring of blog lectures from Amanda Marcotte, et al. Whatever the average American’s attitude toward feminism in early 2015, by November 2016 we’d heard the same messages repeated to the point of becoming a cliché: Everything a man might possibly say or do was wrong, because heteropatriarchy, “rape culture,” blah blah blah.
All this inchoate anti-male rage, of course, was ginned up out of nothing for strictly partisan purposes, to help elect Hillary Clinton.
Look, it’s like fat jokes, OK? If I occasionally make a fat joke, nobody cares. However, if I were to start throwing two or three fat jokes into every blog post, readers might object: “Hey, stop picking on fat people!”
Same deal with feminism. How many columns denouncing “rape culture” does any literate adult really need to read? Probably one or two would do, but during the past couple of years, feminists were cranking out scores of “rape culture” diatribes every week. In June 2014, George F. Will wrote a column that contained a couple of sentences that offended feminists, and from the reaction you would have thought that Will himself had been stalking college campuses and raping girls. With the repetitive intensity of a voodoo zombie drumbeat — “rape! rape! rape!” — the feminist tribe kept pounding away at the same theme, depicting all males as violent monsters on a 24/7 sexual rampage, and the only way to stop this merciless rape onslaught was to elect Hillary Clinton.
To which proposition the American people answered “no.”
No means no, as the feminists say, but having their candidate rejected by the electorate sent them into fits of rage. The message of Saturday’s “Women’s March” was, if you thought feminists were crazy before Trump became president, you have no idea how crazy they are now.
Ladies, the election is over. You lost.
Also you’re fat, but I don’t want to annoy readers with more fat jokes about you. Let ’em make their own jokes. That’s what comments are for.
Catholic Girls School Taught Bisexual Singer to Vote Democrat and Hate Men
Posted on | January 22, 2017 | 1 Comment
“F**K THE SYSTEM AND THE PATRIARCHY.”
— Lauren Jauregui, Jan. 21, 2017
Anti-American left-wing teachers at an all-girls Catholic school in Miami taught bisexual pop singer Lauren Jauregui the radical feminist beliefs that inspired her outspoken opposition to President Trump.
A member of the group Fifth Harmony, the 20-year-old Jauregui denounced Republican voters as “racist, homophobic, sexist, xenophobic, a–holes” in a November rant in which she compared Trump to Hitler and declared her pride in being “a bisexual Cuban-American woman.” In that Nov. 18 message, Jauregui specifically cited her attendance at an all-girls Catholic school in condemning Republicans as “narrow-minded” and “selfish.” Saturday, Jauregui attended the pro-abortion “Women’s March on Washington,” obscenely condemning “patriarchy.”
Jauregui’s anti-GOP hatred shocked many Republicans, who have historically received strong support from Florida’s Cuban-American community, most of whom fled Cuba to escape the totalitarian anti-America regime established by Communist dictator Fidel Castro. Among Trump’s leading rivals for the 2016 GOP nomination were Florida Sen. Marco Rubio and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, both sons of Cuban immigrants.
In an interview with the feminist web site Nylon published today, Jauregui defended federal funding for Planned Parenthood, America’s largest abortion provider, and credited her feminist politics to attending Carrollton School of the Sacred Heart in Miami:
“I attribute everything that I feel and all of the passion that I have to that school. It’s an all-girls school, and it was instilled in me to be a confident and courageous woman. . . . And each individual girl was told how special she was and how much she could influence the world.”
In recent decades, many Catholic schools have emphasized a far-left “social justice” agenda influenced by Marxist “liberation theology,” a radical anti-American ideology that condemns capitalism. The role played by feminism in subverting the Catholic faith was exposed in Donna Steichen’s 1991 book Ungodly Rage: The Hidden Face of Catholic Feminism. Despite opposition from orthodox laity and clergy, left-wing feminists and militant homosexuals have taken over many nominally Catholic universities, including such schools as Marquette University, where the Gender Studies program promotes “queer feminism” and the administration threatened to fire a conservative professor for supporting Catholic moral doctrines. Lauren Jauregui’s condemnation of “patriarchy” echoes the anti-male ideology of feminists like Janice Raymond, Elisabeth Schussler Fiorenza, and Mary Daly.
In her 1973 book Beyond God the Father, Professor Daly announced that “Christianity itself should be castrated,” describing “the Second Coming of female presence not only as Antichrist but also as Antichurch,” as a “rising woman-consciousness” destroying the “Christocentric cosmos” (see “The Radical Theology of Feminism”).
“With this new administration and all of the corruption fueled decisions they will make for their personal interest, it is so important for all of our voices to be heard. . . . I BELIEVE IN WOMEN and the Matriarchy and finding a solution for our dying earth. I believe that our radical ideas are the shaping of the future . . . the oncoming wave of a hard revolutionary fight for justice.”
— Lauren Jauregui, Jan. 16, 2017
In her Nylon interview, Lauren Jauregui called the Trump administration “a fascist regime” and said there is “a lot of hatred in the heart of the country . . .because it was built on slavery.” She also claimed that anyone who opposes her feminist agenda hates women:
I think the whole stigma of the word feminism is such a problem. The only reason that anyone has an aversion to it is because it includes the word “fem,” even though it’s an all-inclusive term. I think that aversion in general is the reason why we need [feminism]. If the word “feminism” bothers you, there’s a reason why it bothers you, and only because it involves women. . . .
I think if I do anything political, it would be activism. I don’t believe in our government, currently. I don’t believe in the way that things are going.
Without any evident sense of irony, Jauregui praised her father, who “supported me 1,000 percent, all the way.” Her father paid to send her to the elite private girls’ school in Miami where annual tuition is $31,800 and she learned to support Marxism, abortion and homosexuality.
"THIS IS WHAT DEMOCRACY LOOKS LIKE! THIS IS WHAT A FEMINIST LOOKS LIKE!"

Victim Shot in Seattle Anti-Trump Riot Reportedly in Critical Condition
Posted on | January 22, 2017 | 2 Comments
There was a shooting Friday night during a riot outside an event at the University of Washington where Milo Yiannopoulos was speaking. Because the identity of the victim and suspected gunman were unknown, and we had no idea what motivated the shooting, I waited for facts to emerge before commenting on this incident. Seattle Times reports:
The man who surrendered to police in connection with the University of Washington shooting Friday night was released after telling investigators he fired in self-defense during a campus protest, according to two law-enforcement officials briefed on the case.
No details about any confrontation between him and the critically wounded man were available Saturday. But one of the law-enforcement officials said the man who fired the gun claimed he had been assaulted before shooting the other man, whom he believed to be some type of white supremacist.
The injured man, 34, was in critical condition Saturday at Harborview Medical Center, following surgery. His name was not released.
The shooting, which occurred during a protest of a Friday-night speech at Kane Hall by Breitbart News Network editor and provocateur Milo Yiannopoulos, remains under investigation.
Two people who said they are friends with the wounded man disputed the characterization of him as a supremacist. One said his friend supported Bernie Sanders in the Democratic presidential primary, and both said he sports an anti-hate tattoo that consists of a black swastika surrounded by a red circle with a slash through it.
Max Vohra of Seattle, who has known the man for seven years, said his friend got the tattoo more than a decade ago “when he was living in California, and had to deal with a lot of racists in the punk scene.” . . .
Daniel Herrera, who has worked and socialized with the man for three years, said he’s never seen his friend be aggressive.
“He has always been of the mind to be compassionate, empathetic and to educate. That’s his goal,” Herrera said.
UW police offered few details Saturday, saying in a news release that no suspects were being sought, and that the man who said he fired the gun was released pending investigation.
UW spokesman Norm Arkans defended the university’s handling of the event, saying that 80 Seattle police officers were brought in to supplement the 25 officers UW assigned to the event. . . .
Once the speech ended, police told audience members to remove their Donald Trump hats and other gear before leaving. Officers escorted the crowd out through an underground parking garage as a crowd of about 250 people remained outside the building.
So, it would appear, the shooter was part of the violent anti-Trump mob, who brought a pistol to this allegedly “peaceful” protest, and shot one of his fellow protesters — a Bernie Sanders supporter — in the mistaken belief that the victim was a white supremacist. This dangerous mob scene occurred on the campus of a state university, where a climate of violent hatred was instigated by soi-disant advocates of “social justice.”

The #WomensMarch: Why Trump Won
Posted on | January 21, 2017 | 1 Comment
Does that look like a mainstream political movement to you?
Ugly women holding up ugly signs expressing ugly sentiments — the #WomensMarch to protest Donald Trump’s presidency is perhaps the clearest explanation of why Donald Trump is president. The all-out feminist crusade mounted on behalf of Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign reminded millions of Americans of why they hate feminism. Yet it is clear today that Democrats have learned nothing from their defeat:
Wearing pink, pointy-eared “pussyhats” to mock the new president, throngs of women descended on the nation’s capital and other cities around the globe Saturday for marches and demonstrations aimed at showing Donald Trump they won’t be silent over the next four years.
They carried signs with messages such as “Women won’t back down” and “Less fear more love” and decried Trump’s stand on such issues as abortion, diversity and climate change. . . .
The march attracted significant support from celebrities. America Ferrara led the artists’ contingent, and those scheduled to speak in Washington included Scarlett Johansson, Ashley Judd, Melissa Harris-Perry and Michael Moore. The promised performance lineup included Janelle Monae, Maxwell, Samantha Ronson, the Indigo Girls and Mary Chapin Carpenter. Cher, Katy Perry and Julianne Moore all were expected to attend.
Here’s a question: If “significant support from celebrities” has a political influence, then why is Hillary Clinton not president? Practically every celebrity in Hollywood lined up behind the Democrat candidate during the 2016 presidential election, but getting support from the rich and famous didn’t seem to help her win over working-class voters in Florida, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin, did it?
Oh. let’s talk about “such issues as abortion, diversity and climate change” — say the wealthy show-business names and the powerful Democrat politicians and the spoiled-rotten rich girls who go to private liberal arts colleges where they major in Gender Studies. And then Democrats wonder why honest hard-working people vote Republican:
Women who cheered President Donald Trump and danced at the inaugural balls in Washington on Friday said the Women’s March scheduled for Saturday has them baffled and indignant that one group would presume to speak for all women.
“I think it’s great, do your thing, but I just don’t know what they’re doing it for. They’re talking about rights, women’s rights, but what rights are being taken away from any women?” asked Susan Clarke, 50, who came to the capital from Charlotte, North Carolina, and wore a blue, bedazzled “Tar Heel Deplorable” shirt. “I don’t understand what the point is.” . . .
“They can protest, it’s their right, but don’t call it the ‘Women’s March,’ ” said Ellie Todd, 23, who drove to the inauguration with two friends from Spartanburg, South Carolina. “That makes it sounds like it’s a big unified thing, when really they’re picking very divisive issues and protesting against Trump — who by the way is now our president — instead of for something that would bring us all together. It’s not all women.”
Democrats still haven’t processed the cause of their defeat and let’s hope they never figure out why their political power has evaporated:
What do Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin have in common, other than being the swing states that flipped Donald Trump into the Presidency? All are among the many states in which Democrats lost control of their state legislature in the past decade. For Democrats, now at their lowest ebb in power since at least the 1920’s, the results of that loss in state-level influence have been both catastrophic and entirely predictable. . . .
Since 2008, Republicans have taken nine hundred legislative districts from Democrats, securing control not just in the South, where many voters oppose President Obama, but in such diverse locales as Michigan and Maine.
During the eight years when liberals were rallying around the symbol of Obama’s presidency, Republicans were quietly working state-by-state and district-by-district to organize conservative opposition. This was largely invisible to the liberal elite in New York, D.C., Boston, San Francisco and L.A., and on the campuses of universities where political discrimination prevents Republicans from being employed on the faculty. All the liberal journalists and progressive professors and Hollywood celebrities were so certain they were “on the right side of history,” they didn’t even notice that the Democrat Party had become increasingly irrelevant to the lives of millions of Americans who don’t live inside the liberal bubble.
Nowhere was this more evident than in the Democrat Party’s orchestrated propaganda campaign to popularize the Feminist™ brand. By summer 2014, it was apparent that a network of Democrat-funded tax-exempt groups was promoting a “feminist” message, especially targeted at college girls and 20-something millennials, in an effort aimed at making Hillary Clinton the “inevitable” Democrat presidential nominee for 2016.
A key component of this was White House-sponsored support for The Campus Rape Frenzy, to borrow the title of K.C. Johnson and Stuart Taylor Jr.’s new book. Rolling Stone‘s rape hoax at the University of Virginia originated as an attempt by the pro-Hillary media to give a semblance of reality to the bogus “1-in-5” statistic promoted by feminists and their Democrat allies. More than 100 male students filed lawsuits claiming they were falsely accused and denied due-process rights as a result of this dishonest “rape culture” campaign.
By using false propaganda to demonize males, Democrats hoped first to defeat any male candidate who challenged Hillary Clinton for her party’s nomination, and then to ride this “feminist” momentum to victory in the 2016 general election campaign. How did that work out, Jessica?
Feminists have not merely lost. They have deserved defeat. Now they’re so desperate, they’re trying to import foreigners to protest Trump:
Would-be protesters heading to the Women’s March on Washington have said they were denied entry to the United States after telling border agents at a land crossing in Quebec their plans to attend the march.
Montrealer Sasha Dyck was part of a group of eight who had arranged online to travel together to Washington. Divided into two cars, the group — six Canadians and two French nationals — arrived at the border crossing that connects St Bernard de Lacolle in Quebec with Champlain, New York, on Thursday.
The group was upfront about their plans with border agents, Dyck said. “We said we were going to the women’s march on Saturday and they said, ‘Well, you’re going to have to pull over’.”
What followed was a two-hour ordeal. Their cars were searched and their mobile phones examined. Each member of the group was fingerprinted and had their photo taken.
Border agents first told the two French citizens that they had been denied entry to the US and informed them that any future visit to the US would now require a visa.
Go back to Canada, you filthy scum. We’re making America great again.

Trump Speaks, Liberals Hear Hitler
Posted on | January 20, 2017 | 2 Comments
Donald Trump’s inauguration speech was a tribute to non-partisan populism: “What truly matters is not which party controls our government, but whether our government is controlled by the people.”
For the partisan hack Chris Matthews at MSNBC, however, Trump’s inauguration was an excuse to offer baseless insinuations of fascism. His co-host Rachel Maddow was shocked by Matthews’ deranged response to her mention of Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner as a White House aide:
MADDOW: Reince Preibus and Jared Kushner and Steve Bannon will be an unusual triumvirate around this President and we don’t really know who will be first among those equals.
MATTHEWS: It’s hard to — Rachel — it’s hard to fire your son-in-law.
MADDOW: Yeah.
MATTHEWS: That’s tricky part although —
MADDOW: That’s why the nepotism laws are there.
MATTHEWS: — but Mussolini had a great solution to that. He had him executed. So, it’s —
MADDOW: Jesus, Chris!
MATTHEWS: So, if I were Jared, I’d be a little careful.
MADDOW: Well, all the people who are waiting for the reference to Mussolini have just started drinking.
Matthews’ predictable Hitler jab at Trump came later: “But I’m thinking when he said today ‘America First’ it was not just the racial, I mean the, um, I shouldn’t say racial, the Hitlerian background to it.”
This “background” existed only in Matthews’ demented imagination. Meanwhile, the Trump team wasted no time taking down a bunch of left-wing crap (“climate change” blah blah blah) from the White House web site, and replacing it with messages like “America First Foreign Policy,” “An America First Energy Plan” and “Standing Up For Our Law Enforcement Community.” Somewhere, I’m sure, Chris Matthews is downing his fifth cocktail of the evening, and mumbling that changing the White House website is a harbinger of a neo-holocaust.
