Is This for Real?

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

Just as we were about to go to bed last night, my wife discovered “news” that the government’s going to admit UFOs are real and there’s a guy studying materials and artifacts from “off-world craft” that were “not made here” on earth. And there was Tucker Carlson discussing it on video with “a former defense official.”

I knew there had to be something we could do to make 2020 even crazier than it already is.

Let’s see… attempted coup against the president, capped by bogus bull-schiff “impeachment”… pandemic, courtesy of Red China… non-stop riots, all white people are guilty of something, anything, everything…

Yeah–UFOs are real! That ought to do it. Here come the Space Brothers! They’ll teach us how to set up a real socialist utopia that really works, with a lot of kinky new perversions to go with it.

There is no life in the solar system except here on earth, and everywhere else in the universe is just too far away. And to go to all the trouble of getting here across several light-years of deep space, just to flit around the sky and titillate people, seems extravagantly wasteful. If the aliens were that silly, they couldn’t have invented flying saucers in the first place.

It could be a hoax. It could be a distraction. It could be an experiment. In fact, it could be all three at once.

Or it might just go away before the week is out. A lot of Big nooze stories do.

Bill of Rights? What Bill of Rights?

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy

New Jersey Gov. Phillip Murphy–who calls recreational pot-smoking “the civil rights issue of our time,” who’s hot to trot for assisted suicide–told Fox News host Tucker Carlson that a basic consideration of the Bill of Rights is “above my pay grade” (https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/above-my-pay-grade-new-jersey-governor-claims-bill-of-rights-did-not-factor-into-his-coronavirus-executive-orders).

Carlson was asking him about one of his executive orders that resulted in the arrest of 15 worshipers at a synagogue–exercising their First Amendment right of free exercise of religion–and Murphy answered “[I] wasn’t thinking of the Bill of Rights when we did this.”

Even if you believe these executive orders are absolutely necessary to cope with a medical emergency, does it follow that the Bill of Rights is just… a luxury? Well, yeah, freedoms are okay, but it’s not like we need ’em or anything.

I mean, he could have said, “Well, of course I thought of the Bill of Rights and I didn’t take this step lightly: I was responding to an emergency. I felt I had to do it.”

We are talking elementary civics here–the kind of thing everybody used to learn in junior high school. It was not above a governor’s pay grade. The Bill of Rights is foundational to our country’s entire legal system. To ignore it, to trample on it, is to weaken all the laws. As Mr. Pot-Head Governor is duty-bound to know!

Are we going to have to go through this quarantine rigmarole every time there’s a disease on the loose, from now on? Well, that would be always, because there’s always some germ or other looking to infect us.

So that’s another thing this experience has taught us: We need to tighten up and make much more specific the rules defining what powers governors or mayors may invoke and exercise to deal with an emergency. As we have seen in several states, we just can’t trust them to make it up as they go along.

San Francisco, ‘American Dystopia’

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

Tucker Carlson on Fox News has launched a new series on the demise of America’s great cities, starting here with San Francisco. The purpose of the series, he says, is to “remind Washington what they’re supposed to be doing.” That is, preserving the quality of American life.

“Civilization itself,” he says, “is coming apart in San Francisco.” There is, in effect, no more law enforcement there. Any crime involving less than $950 in property damage or loss is simply ignored by the justice system. And meanwhile the sidewalks are full of human feces and discarded syringes. The city government hands out some 400,000 needles a month, free–which sort of encourages drug abuse.

But what the heck, they’ve still got the country’s biggest “pride” parades.

Two things need to be said. I don’t know whether Carlson is going to say them, so let’s say them here.

*This happens to every city where the Democrat Party rules. Go ahead, name a major city, governed by Democrats, that isn’t going to hell in a handbasket. Betcha can’t.

*This is happening to cities all over the Western world. Seen any pictures of Marseilles or Paris lately? Not nice! And if you’re ever in Stockholm–well, get out as fast as you can.

This is post-Christian know-it-all fat-head secular culture. It will prove to be an experiment in whether you can have a civilization without functioning cities.

Our one and only hope is to reject everything this stands for and run, don’t walk, back to God.

They Call It ‘Education’

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

Here’s Tucker Carlson exposing the latest mischief that its perpetrators are calling “education.” It’s “Deep Equity Education,” a teacher training curriculum aimed at convincing undefended children that everything about America is “racist” and it’s all white people’s fault–the usual “social justice” claptrap, with the usual baggage of pseudo-language and lying.

Hey, people–when are you gonna wake up? You pay for these horrible “schools,” but you don’t have any say at all in who teaches there, or what gets taught. All you do is pay and pay and pay! To this day, no one has dared calculate how much you pay, each year, for the total cost of, um, “public education.”

And what do you get for your money? You get Far Left white liberal wackos teaching your children that everything is racist, if they’re white it’s all their fault and they must spend the rest of their lives punishing themselves, and if they’re black or hispanic, well, they’re inept and incompetent victims who need empowered leftists to run their lives for them and give them free stuff.

The idea is to tear down the country so they can build God knows what on its ruins.

Kill public education, and Far Left Crazy dies.

Kill public education. It’ll be worth it.

P.S.–Deep Equity urges teachers to “explicitly reject and resist” any complaint by parents. You’re paying for that, suckers.

‘Protesters’ Threaten Tucker Carlson’s Family

“Hey, Tucker! Shut up or we’ll hurt your family!”

Okay, America. You let Democrats get some of their power back this week. Now take a closer look at what you voted for.

On Wednesday night some twenty “protesters” assembled at the home of Fox News conservative commentator Tucker Carlson to spray-paint anarchist symbols on his driveway, make a lot of noise, and scare his family (https://www.apnews.com/5aa41068747f4e41b39947f761462f96). “They were threatening my family to get me to stop talking,” Carlson said.

Washington, D.C., police are investigating the incident as “a possible hate crime.” Gee, ya think?

So far none of the left-wing noozies has applauded the incident and several have expressed disapproval of it. None of these same people seemed to mind when Democrat mobs assaulted Republican politicians and members of the Trump administration, screaming in their faces and chasing them out of restaurants.

Voters, you wanted the Mob Rule Party, and now you’ve got it. Bon appetite.

 

Europe: Mock Muhammad, Go to Jail

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

I’d be very disappointed in myself if the best Glorious Cause I could come up with was the “right” to blasphemy. But in Europe an Austrian woman has been found guilty of the new criminal offense of mocking Muhammad (details in video, above).

Europeans, though, still have the “right” to mock Christians and Christianity with impunity. Does this strike you as, like, a double standard?

I’d also be very disappointed in myself if the best thing I could think of doing with my freedom was to mock someone else’s religion. True, I frequently mock the Far Left’s pseudo-religion of secular humanism. Just can’t seem to resist it.

The fact that I’m a Christian really sort of indicates that I don’t believe in Islam and don’t accept its teachings as true. I couldn’t be a Christian, otherwise. But I don’t see how that gives me any warrant to insult Muslims, Hindus, or any others who sincerely believe in their respective religions and try to live in peace. I can pray for their conversion. I can try to answer their questions, respectfully and honestly, when they have questions for me. I can try to live in such a way that it won’t inspire them to despise Christianity because they despise me. I don’t always do all of these things well, but I can try.

Besides which, Our Lord Jesus Christ Himself, and His apostles, set an example which I am obliged to follow as best as I can. Did Peter or Paul ever mock Greeks and Romans for being pagans? Not in any Bible I’ve ever read.

Yes, I know Elijah mocked the priests and so-called prophets of Baal. But who of us has Elijah’s authority?

When the Lord commanded us to do unto others as we would have them do unto us, He didn’t add, “But only if they’re Christians.”

Tucker Carlson: Democrats ‘Blowing Up’

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

Yo, Tucker–from your mouth to God’s ear! Nothing very good can happen to America until the Democrat Party is put out of business forever, and Carlson says they’re busy doing that to themselves. Well, how can we help?

But we must bear in mind Napoleon’s excellent advice: when your enemy is making a mistake, don’t interfere.

Going far Left off the edge of the world has got to be a mistake–I hope!

Tucker Carlson on Open Borders

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

Just in case you thought Joe Collidge’s argument for open borders made any sense at all, here’s Tucker Carlson with a few words in favor of sanity.

Currently, and all throughout history, there is no country that has open borders–because then it wouldn’t be a country. Remember what happened to the Roman Empire when it couldn’t control its borders anymore.

Please do not forget that the Democrat Party is for open borders, even if they have no idea what it would mean. Or maybe they do, and just don’t care.

Mandatory Transgender Dating???

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

I almost didn’t have the stomach to post this.

Tucker Carlson discovered this video tweet from a “transgender” wacko who denounces normal men for being “exclusionary of transgender dating partners” and suggesting that society–that is, the government–might want to change that. It leaves Carlson wondering about whether our future might hold “mandatory transgender dating.”

I hear some of you going “Yeah, right, haw-haw-haw!” and making rude noises. Once upon a time that was how we reacted if anyone brought up the possibility of legal marriage between individuals of the same sex. Now you might get punished for not going along with that. Given the perilous condition of our culture’s health, you can’t rule out anything.

The absurd meets the abominable, and together they’re a tag team.

Comic Relief: Dueling Cliches

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

I need a laugh! How about you?

Here’s Tucker Carlson the other night with Cathy Areu, “the Liberal Sherpa”, on the introduction of “cry closets” by the University of Utah. The idea is, college exams are so stressful, the students won’t be able to take it unless they can duck in to a special closet for ten minutes and cry their eyes out. Why do I keep thinking I hear Tom Hanks saying, “There’s no crying in baseball”?

Tucker thinks it’s total wimp to get that wound up over “some dumb test at some dumb school,” which makes Cathy actually gasp. You gotta be “centered,” she says, and do something or other with your feelings, “whatever pronoun the person wishes to be”–eh?

A man who never cries is poor.

A man who always cries is ridiculous.

That goes for women, too. And those are the only two genders I can think of.
