A Blogger’s Day

I’ve done my weekly Newswithviews column, don’t ask me how, I’ve put up what were intended to be really interesting blog posts, and have been trying to forget the latest sales figures for my books.

Viewer traffic here has gone way down this month. It’s like working at CNN. I don’t know why. Some of you are Christian bloggers–has this been happening to you, too?

Maybe what I need is some posts by really hot guests. Celebrities! Yeah, that might do it. I emailed a big one last week, but he hasn’t answered me. How big? Well, put it this way: if Oprah Winfrey asked me for a guest spot, she’d have to stand in line behind this celebrity. That goes for Joey Bishop, too.

Let’s go check the email again…

‘Armstrong to Lance Himself’ (2013)

It’s worse when you wear a silly helmet and a shirt with sponsors on it.

Lance Armstrong–remember him? Worldwide celebrity, dating Sheryl Crow (until she came out against toilet paper)–and he threw it all away by getting caught cheating.

So he sought absolution. From another celebrity.

Armstrong to Lance Himself

Gee. Back around the turn of the 19th century there was a now-famous short story by Robert W. Chambers, “The Repairer of Reputations.” Evidently that’s not Oprah Winfrey, who heard Lance Armstrong’s confession but couldn’t make him famous again.

And now I’m thinking of Humpty-Dumpty…

She’s Already Got the Commie Vote

Not to give it more attention than it deserves, but the prospect of Oprah Winfrey running for president has already drawn some left-wing wackos out of the woodwork.

Van Jones–who was in the Obama administration as “green jobs czar” until he had to be dumped because he was a self-proclaimed communist and anyway we can certainly get by without a “green jobs czar”–has thrown his support to Oprah. Provided, he says, she will be content to be “demoted from queen of the universe to President of the United States.” “If she runs,” he predicted, “she will destroy anyone in front of her.”

Queen of the universe? What universe is that?

If she does run, we already know what we’re going to hear.

If you don’t vote for her, you hate black people, you are a racist and a White Supremacist. The few dozen real white supremacists in America never had it so good.

If you don’t vote for her, you hate women.

In fact, if you don’t vote for her, you probably hate everybody.

What a swell time we’re going to have.

Oprah for President?

Okay, I once tried to watch Oprah Winfrey’s show, and couldn’t do it. Last night she got a Lifetime Achievement Golden Globe, and now assorted noozies are trying to gin up an Oprah for President movement (https://www.nytimes.com/2018/01/08/movies/oprah-winfrey-lifetime-achievement-golden-globes.html). After years of spectacular success as America’s No. 1 sob sister, they want Oprah for their president.

Well, why not? Who else have they got? The Democrat lineup is a parade of tired soft-core commies and Swamp creatures. Even I have to admit that Oprah is not part of the Swamp, has not made a shambles of any public office, has not damaged the country by signing any legislation, and managed to make herself a billionaire without the aid of lobbyists.  She is infinitely more qualified to lead the country than Kerry, Gore, Obama, or Hillary ever were. Donald Trump ran over a whole mule team of Establishment candidates to win the GOP primary in 2016. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Oprah administer a similar trouncing to a passel of Democrats.

No, I wouldn’t vote for her. As a Democrat, she would surely pursue policies that can only do us harm. It will be a good day for America when the Democrat Party ceases to exist. But meanwhile they’re going to want a presidential candidate for 2020. Oprah is a wild card in the deck–and it just might trump Trump.

I pray with all my heart that Democrats never again take power in my country. Never, ever again.
