The Coming Democrat Civil War REPRINT

From November 8, 2018

As a reporter, I used to cover a township in which the Republican Party, for all practical purposes, did not exist. But it didn’t matter. The township’s Democrats had split into two rival factions that made anything that went on before it look like a love-in.

It’s possible we may see that, in the not too distant future, on the national scene.

On one hand you’ve got the Far Left Crazy crowd, spawned by that old serpent, Bernie Sanders–out-and-out socialist. Indeed, the long psychotic episode that is liberalism has brought this crowd into an embrace of preposterous and suicidal policies–“open borders” and “transgender,” to name just two. Knowing no civics at all, they think their capture of a majority (not a very big majority) in the House of Representatives will empower them to do all sorts of things–erase the borders, repeal the tax cuts, bring back Obamacare in all its glory, impeach the president, vice president, and anybody else who gets in their way–which the Republican Senate can effortlessly stop them from doing.

Unable to get their way, their frustration will reach the point where it must erupt. And before it blows, they’re going to aim it at somebody.

On the other hand you’ve got the older, Nancy Pelosi, Mask of Sanity Democrats, wedded to the slow, incremental transformation of America into a socialist hellhole. Don’t laugh–incrementalism has gotten them very far. They’ve learned that the best way to go about their business is to painstakingly bamboozle the American people. And in the meantime, the legislation they can’t pass… wait for some Democrat judge to rule it into “law.”

The problem with this is, it takes time: and meanwhile, Donald Trump is appointing federal judges and the Senate is confirming them. This drives the younger rats crazy. They burn to attack with teeth and claws–but the Mask of Sanity faction is in their way.

Look for the thing to blow sky-high in 2020, when the Far Left Crazy has some Open Borders wacko to nominate for president–with a transgender running mate–and the Mask of Sanity cabal sinks him or her or xer with some dirty tricks so they can run Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, or some other living fossil.

Gonna be some major fun when that happens!

REPRINT My Newswithviews Column, Nov. 7 (‘The March of Lunacy’)

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

 

From November 7, 2019

Is there a state that’s short a governor?

I keep asking myself how long this crazy stuff can go on; and I don’t know the answer.

The March of Lunacy

Why do we have a “transgender” movement? Was there some kind of demand for it? Really? Why do you get kicked out of your job for saying only women can give birth to babies?

Why does the government tell you how many points your high school football team’s allowed to score? Why does the governor of New York insist there were no hurricanes until we came along with our SUVs and created Climate Change?

Who thinks it’s a good idea to keep the crazies in the driver’s seat?

They Want ‘Out’ of Oregon

Over the line: Why some Oregonians want to become part of Idaho - CBS News

Another county has voted to secede from Oregon and join Idaho–that’s 13 Oregon counties for the Greater Idaho movement (https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13447357/THIRTEEN-conservative-counties-Oregon-approve-ballot-measures-SECESSION-vote-join-non-woke-Idaho-issue-list-demands.html).

Why do they want to leave?

Oregon’s “progressive” stupid policies have saddled the state with high taxes, high crime rates, and widespread drug abuse; and by now 14 of Oregon’s counties have had enough and don’t want any more.

If the secession were carried out, Idaho’s border would advance 200 miles into the west, shrinking Oregon drastically. But don’t worry–Oregon will still have the same woke counties and the same woke government that frustrated and alienated the western half of the state.

“And remember… you asked for it!”

There is war in heaven and on earth–whether or not we see it. Satan and his slaves are fighting tooth and nail to bring all Creation under their control. And then destroy it.

It took me very many years to see this; and now I can’t un-see it.

What It’s All About

Why couldn’t I see this in college? I grew up in a Christian church, I’d read the Bible, everybody told me I was smart. But I wasn’t smart enough to see. Kept looking for worldly solutions to what I thought were worldly problems.

Look where that foolishness has got us. We’re afraid to tell male from female anymore.

Wise up, O men of God.

Phoenix: Ban Meat, Dairy, and Private Cars

By the time they get to Phoenix… they’ll be back in the Middle Ages

The mayor of Phoenix, AZ, wants her city to ban meat, dairy, and privately-owned cars by 203o (https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/09/great-reset-radical-phoenix-mayor-kate-gallego-begins/). It’ll Save The Planet, dontcha know.

Who the blazes wants to live this way? No steak, no hamburgers, no chops, no milk, no ice cream, no cheese, and no going anywhere unless there’s a bus!

Phoenix is one of 14 U.S. cities, and supposedly over 100 world-wide, on board a globalist pipe dream called “the C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group. Funded by Mike “I am a god” Bloomberg and other Far Left magnates.

If freedom and prosperity can survive the next few decades, it’ll only be due to God’s personal intervention. Wicked and insane morons, in positions of (ugh!) authority, are running wild, seeking whom they might devour.

How could any civilized country have ever come to this? Have they no sense of shame? Are the world’s peoples addicted to servility?

In Jesus’ name may God defend us. Amen!

Holy cow! They’re actually paying to be subjected to this?

O frabjous day! Michigan State University’s 2023 official Language Guide has been released–so students and staff will know what words they’d better not say if they know what’s good for ’em (https://campusreform.org/article?id=21614).

The purpose of all this Word Police sh*t is to make everything more “inclusive.” Brilliant! Why didn’t I think of that? You achieve “inclusion” by excluding stuff! Like any words that might conceivably be associated with America, Christianity, Christmas, Easter, mental health, the past, the present, the future… Crikey, it might be easier just to take a vow of silence.

Can we ask this question again: Why in the world do you people want this? Why do you think our country’s got to have it?

Or, to put it another way–what the devil’s wrong with you?

Another Question That They’ll Never Answer

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

Confused Lost Puzzled Signpost Stock Image - Image of puzzled, confused: 16903019

The one question that never gets asked, when a noozie interviews a rug-chewing crazy wacko, is:

“WHY DO YOU WANT THAT?”

Critical Race Theory in the schools–“Why do you want that?”

Drag Queen Story Hour–“Why do you want that?”

Using the schools to groom children for sex–“Why do you want that?”

Transgender mania sweeping the Western world–“Why do you want that?”

Classic works of literature rewritten to appeal to hyper-sensitive “modern readers” who don’t really read that well–“Why do you want that?”

More “mandates,” more “governance,” more elites selecting winners and losers, more World Economic Forum–“Why do you want that?”

I’m betting you can’t get a coherent answer to this question from any of the above-mentioned groups. Mostly you’ll get cursed and yelled at. You may even get bitten–very unstable, these progressives, when they encounter any departure from their party line.

Mostly, though, you’ll get babble and gobbledygook. At least that’s been my experience.

And our politics, government, education, and business is packed chock-full of it.

Pushback! Tennessee Bans ‘Drag’ Shows

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

Scarlet Tanager

I don’t post pictures of drag queens. Here’s a nice scarlet tanager instead.

Tennessee a few days ago became the first state to ban “drag queen” shows on public property near schools, including schools (https://www.foxnews.com/politics/tennessee-becomes-first-state-ban-drag-shows-public-property-near-schools). The state also banned “gender transition surgery” for minors.

Other states seem poised to do the same–Idaho, Kentucky, North Dakota, Montana, Oklahoma, and Utah.

We need to pray it’s not too late. It already is too late for some–children who will be sterile, and in need of medical attention, for the rest of their lives.

This is an inexplicable chapter of world history, this transgender mania. Maybe it’s the work of Satan. Nothing else seems to account for it.

Even so, we can rejoice that at least some of our states are trying to save the ship before it sinks.

Beyond the point of no repair

Columnist and historian Victor Davis Hanson has asked a very good question:

“What does a people do when its highest officials simply renounce their oaths of office and refuse to enforce laws that they don’t like?” (https://amgreatness.com/2023/03/05/life-among-the-ruins/).

These officials, he says–and I agree–are ruining our country. They’re turning our cities into dirty, crime-ridden hellholes; and once the damage is irreparable, they’ll get to work on the suburbs.

It’s more than just refusing to enforce laws that they don’t like. It’s even more than crooked DAs refusing to prosecute crime and seeing to it that criminals are released back onto the streets as soon as possible. Our highest officials promote, enable, and strengthen groups and activities that do real harm. It’s like they really hate America and are doing their level best to destroy it–or at least turn it into something unrecognizable to sane people who remember better times.

Are there really, truly accredited doctors who sincerely believe that boys can–and should be!–turned into girls, and girls into boys? Are there really, truly high officials who sincerely believe that our nation’s borders can–and should be!–erased?

And so on, and so on.

The question won’t go away. “What do a people do” when this level of misgovernment is done to them?

I believe Thomas Jefferson had the answer to that question. You’ll find it in the Declaration of Independence.

When It Starts Raining Airplanes

Israeli flight to Turkey delayed after plane crash photos sent to passengers' phones | The Times of Israel

“And they said I couldn’t hit the ocean!”

United Airlines has set itself a goal: 50% of its airline pilots have to be women or [trumpets, please] People Of Color. Whether they can actually fly the plane or not, who cares? It’s affirmative action!

A few days ago Tucker Carlson ruffled some feathers by alluding to a Boeing 767 cargo plane crash in 2019 (https://thenewamerican.com/equity-over-safety-did-an-affirmative-action-pilot-crash-a-plane/). The pilot, originally from Antigua, did poorly on his tests, displaying “a history of acting impulsively” and “an inability to remain calm during stressful situations,” a federal investigator said.

So half the time he jumped the gun and half the time he froze, they hired him anyway because it’s virtue signalling… and he crashed the plane.

Wait’ll in starts raining airplanes. But who cares? The jidrools who make the rules all fly on private jets anyhow–what’s an airliner full of plebs to them?

Live by insane public policies, die by insane public policies.
