Democrats’ Endless Virtue-Signaling Over Diversity Now Transitions to White Grumpy Old Men
We were told by Democrat Morality Police that the assault and rape claims of a woman — any woman — always must be believed. There is no “he said/she said.” Rather, there is only “he raped/she survived.” There is no salvation, no atonement, no forgiveness for blackface nor for a woman’s rape charge. No exculpation, that is, until the Virginia Democrats realized that, if Northam is removed for blackface, and Fairfax for rape and yet rape again, and Herring for blackface, then the new governor would have to be Virginia House Speaker Kirk Cox — a Republican.
For Bernie the Communist, Darkness at Noon as Oil Ain’t the Only Thing That’s Rigged
The party is over, Boinie. The communist party. But don’t fret; you still can celebrate anniversaries with Jane in Cuba or, at least for now, in Venezuela. We have had communists run in the past, but they used to run on their own communist party ticket.
And Then There Were Four
It amazes in retrospect that there exist egos so overblown and unwieldy that they have the temerity to think themselves capable, or even worthy, of leading the greatest country on Earth, the most powerful, the most generous. Whence do they get that craziness?
Pro-Choice, or Pro-Infanticide?
Senate Democrats blocked a bill that would protect the life of an infant born after a failed abortion procedure. Is this what they mean by “pro-choice”?
The votes are there for a religious-right-wing government
With coronavirus floating around, medical care challenged in other ways, Hezbollah and Iranian dangers in the north, incessant and continual Hamas and Islamic Jihad (which in reality are the same thing) rocket-firing and balloon-bombing in the south, disastrous winter hurricane-style flooding in the north and central regions, it would have been nice to have had a government in place.
We Are All (Or Will All Be) Refugees
It’s great being a liberal. You don’t have to give much thought to your positions or the repercussions. Just come up with a catchy phrase that makes you feel good all over. Facing opposition to your positions? No problem. Just call them racists, sexists, homophobes, misogynists, fascists, supremacists, xenophobes, etc. The list is endless.
How Kobe Bryant Deeply Impacted My Life
No matter where I go in Southern California, I am asked how Kobe Bryant deeply impacted my life. That is the culture here. Having been asked this question so often, I have begun thinking deeply about the people now deceased who actually did impact my life deeply.
PODCAST: Bernie and the ADL: Dangerously Wrong on Anti-Semitism
Jonathan Greenblatt and the ADL only care about Anti-Semitism when it can be used as an accusation against conservatives.
“Orthodox” Gay Marriage and the Path to Destruction
Thankfully, I have not written about Open Orthodoxy for a very, very long time. It is not something I enjoy doing or have the time to focus on, and I only address this topic when it is really necessary.
What I Can’t Stand About the Democrat Presidential Candidates
Now that the DNC has cleared out the riffraff — Kirsten Gillibrand, Cory Booker, Kamala Harris, Andrew Yang, and all the other pretenders to the Oval — the most recent Democrat presidential debate offered an opportunity to get a clearer picture of each one remaining in the cage. They all are despicable.
