Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | The Morning RantThis country will not be put right until... --Our elites stop hating the civilization they inherited. --Abstinence before marriage and marriage itself becomes the norm. --People want more children rather than fewer. --Government is seen primarily as the guarantor of liberty rather than a distributer of goods and services. --The national debt is paid down, rather than added to. --Universities are systematically deprogressivized (like Germany was denazified after WWII). --The national media is laughed out of existence. --Mental illness is no longer a civil right. --Public schools stop hiding the atrocities committed by commies. --People stop proposing a government fix for every freakin' problem that comes along. --Unless of course, the fix is to repeal one or more laws already on the books. --Term limits for every federal, state, and local office. --Commies show up as bad guys in movies just as often as Nazis. --The ugly, the perverse, and the bizarre are no longer celebrated or glorified. --Massive social changes are not undertaken solely for the sake of a few outliers. --We once again learn to value and protect the innocence of children. --Looters are shot. --People fear the imposition of government rather than love it. --The social status of actors and other mass-market entertainers is substantially reduced. --The idea that America needs to be "fundamentally transformed" is met with scorn and contempt.

She's been married to the same guy since 1992, so that's nice. What's not so nice is that in the quotes section, she talks about her posters of her are the favorites of convicts and mentally ill people, so she's had a lot of stalkers coming over her fence with weapons and trying to break into her house. Ugh. She must have to spend a lot on security.

I once had a college professor (Renaissance History) run the "Jesus was a socialist" line in slightly different terms. He said something along the lines of, "Jesus said that if a man was cold, you should give him your coat."
It was after finals and I had my grade so I said, "but did Jesus advocate for a third party to seize your coat by force, tear off a sleeve or two for himself, then hand the tattered remnant to the beggar? Because that's what socialism does." He was *not* amused. Posted by: Joe Mannix (Not a cop!) at February 17, 2021 11:23 AM (UZVEt) 16

Whereas there's a gossip site hinting that Melania was going to get divorced from Donald until he won the presidency, but now that he's no longer president, the divorce is going through this year, and people in the comments were cheering it on. I suppose I should get used to the slanted coverage, but maybe there's something good about my brain going, "Wait, no," when I see this dreck.

The country will not be put right without a massive, nationwide rejection of the political establishment -- a rebuff that would make the election of Donald Trump look like a pale expression of a mild preference. And it will not be pleasant to live through it.

Much like Glenn Greenwald, Freddie deBoer is a leftist who has all sorts of terrible beliefs, yet who is not on the woke train and is honest enough to call out the brazen hypocrisy of the press.

Hide all the women in town. An Arizona woman charged in connection with the Jan. 6 onslaught of the U.S. Capitol bragged in a Snapchat video that she was recently recruited by a Kansas City chapter of the Proud Boys, a neofascist organization that describes itself as "Western chauvinists" and has long forbidden female members. Felicia Konold's claim that the chapter recruited her and she was "with them now," even though she's not from the Kansas City area, has intrigued experts who study extremist right-wing movements. "It is ironic that such a deeply misogynistic organization has attracted someone who is a woman to join their organization," said Eric Ward, a senior fellow with the Southern Poverty Law Center.

Slavitt: Theres so much of this virus thats just a little beyond our explanation
BULLSHIT!, its behaving no differently than an expected range of ILI (Influenza Like Illness) behaviors; except perhaps its complete non impact on the young. That is odd, why would they have developed some immunity or have a ACE2 related reaction pathway that is so different than older folks. Was there a series of related corona viruses decades ago that setup this behavior? Back then we called corona virii part of the common cold problem. And, why aren't they stacking the dead in Africa - is there another malaria related ACE2 issue going on? Posted by: Jean at February 17, 2021 11:47 AM (Xih1H) 179

I find it amusing that movie makers have and continue to draw from the Nazi (German or any offspring from it) well as their default villain source.
You would think it was a Reich that actually existed a thousand years, based on how much they focus their storytelling on it. Posted by: Curly Shuffle at February 17, 2021 *** If the Reich had not existed, it would have been necessary for Hollywood to invent it. In the '60s you could understand how the "Fourth Reich" trope was all over TV; the war was only 20 years back, and even those old enough to have been Nazis in '33-'45 would only have been in their 50s.

"It takes place in British India. The French are there, too. I never knew the French had a presence in India.
Posted by: OregonMuse, AoSHQ Thought Leader, Pants Monitor & Social Distancing Professional at February 17, 2021 11:34 AM (sCLeb)" It's the French who Clive defeated during the Seven Years War to capture India for the British. One might call the war World War -1. World War 0 would be the Napoleonic Wars. The Seven Years War was fought throughout Europe, the Caribbean, India, with a side show in New France (aka Canada) where Wolfe defeated Montcalm on the Plains of Abraham. This little tiff later led to the American Revolution, as the American colonists no longer needed protection against the Foul and Most Foreign French (movie reference) and the Brits had not yet figured out how to do local responsible government (later fixed in 1848 in Nova Scotia). Americans call the N. American part of the Seven Years War the French and Indian War, although it should be renamed the French and Indigenous People's War. In Canada, it would be called the French and First Nations War. Posted by: MichCanuck at February 17, 2021 11:50 AM (cMmzv) 199

Posted by: Jane D'Oh Question on the pastor front, for the Catholics here.

I'm embarrassed by how much I *hated* the internet being out, compared to the electricity in general. Our house kept the heat pretty well and we have a gas stove, and long lighters, as well as a grill outside. By some miracle, we even had hot water even after the power went out (my sister's house didn't even with a gas water heater). I'm most thankful that my parents (and thus my grandparents) kept their electricity except for a few hours last night. They even still have water pressure, which is a relief.

I don't even know where to begin on the list of putting the country right. it seems like we're careening in the opposite direction.
I understand that what you meant by mental illness is the transgender crap, and yeah, believing you can wishcast yourself into the opposite sex with wigs, surgery, and hormones is insane. I would add that a complicit medical profession, government payers, and media are necessary for this to flourish. This would still be happening without that unholy trinity, but to nowhere near the same extent. It would be expensive, possibly illegal and it would be used as cautionary tales of what can happen if you make bad choices. A society that was horrified by a film showing Alan Turing's physical and emotional pain during forced hormonal treatment, turns around and encourages people to choose hormonal treatments in order to chase a fantasy? The medical profession is either delusional or outrageously greedy. Posted by: CN at February 17, 2021 12:01 PM (ONvIw) 264

I think, in the case of POTUS it's a bit more complicated than "power of attorney." If she's signing things on his behalf with or without it I would think the EO's or whatever would be contested, assuming we had a party that had some balls. But I get the whole auto pen thing and an actual pen and ink signature these days is almost worthless. And I don't think there can be more than one person who has power of attorney... at least in civil law. When my mother passed last year we went through this and only one of her kids could carry it.

Calling black people capable of succeeding is now racist. Calling them incompetents in need of the help of their masters is not racist.
Posted by: N.L. Urker at February 17, 2021 12:08 PM (lgiXo) *** Yep.

Oh that reminds me, the road images.
Roman roads last but there are terrible for cars. Modern asphalt wears out quickly, but it's fast and easy to repair (relatively) and it's easier on autos, both for traction for stopping/turning and easier on the the tires and suspension. Asphalt needs regular maintenance though. Posted by: Mark Andrew Edwards, Logan Tiberius Edwards (2012-2021) There's also the question of temperature changes, and the effect of freeze-thaw - freeze on roads where water penetrates cracks in the roadway and then freezes and causes expansion. I would bet the remaining Roman Roads are not in cold weather climates that experience frequent freezing. Posted by: Bozo Conservative....outlaw in America at February 17, 2021 12:11 PM (vcOmj) 346

This is depressing. Back when I was a HS student - a young skull full of mush - I was listening to Rush on the radio during study hall. I first heard of him in a 60 Minutes interview and was intrigued enough to hear him on my own. And I have listened to him ever since. Off and on, but more on than off.
Mr. Limbaugh made me think even if I didn't agree with him. And that's why I kept coming back to his program. If I think I am learning something I keep coming back for more. This sucketh. Posted by: Catch Thirty-Thr33 at February 17, 2021 12:16 PM (49Dnm) 394

Question on the pastor front, for the Catholics here. In two successive Sundays, in two different parishes - the actual pastor - not one of the associate priests - came out and gave a homily about disconnecting from social media. Was this just in our diocese (Arlington) or wider spread?
Posted by: Jean at February 17, 2021 11:57 AM (Xih1H) The pastor and rector have been giving homilies that we need to obey God's will to insure salvation. We, as individuals, need to help the needy, etc.. The public prayers have also included praying the politicians put the nation first. The parish is not onboard with the "woke" Commie bull$h!t. As a parish, we do a lot of donations of food and clothing to various local Catholic groups. Posted by: Retired Buckeye Cop is now an engineer at February 17, 2021 12:20 PM (YQ4mh) 402

I doubt most Roman roads got/get a lot of seasonal variability and heavy trucks driving over them.

"This country will not be put right until..." I should do my own list because there are a few chauvinist line items in that list that are problematic. For instances, if you think all women should have sex with one man and one man only for their entire life, you are delusional. While I truly understand there are people that wish to be intimate with only one person for-ev-a, that's fine, but, it should not be one-size fits all. No pun intended. "We once again learn to value and protect the innocence of children." Well, what I have seen in my 50-60yrs is there has been a very high % of world wide children who have been raped, tortured, starved, put in un-Godly work environments and sold to pedophiles for centuries and it ain't gonna stop. Why, because rich and/or powerful people don't give a shit about anyone but themselves and they make sure they hang with the people that will cover for them. How many young girls where served up to Jerry Epstein and men he knew along knowing the politicians and wealthy people would stay quiet, which, they did and still do. Yeah, maybe I need to write my own list. Posted by: sidney at February 17, 2021 12:54 PM (+fjIe) Processing 0.08, elapsed 0.0834 seconds. |
