The Elmer Fudd Syndrome

Posted by lge on Monday, March 31, 2008 11:56:05 PM
I saw Karl Rove on the Hannity and Colmes show tonight, and I got an old, familiar feeling. He looked so mild, so innocuous, even a little nerdy. And I thought, "This is the raving, fire-breathing, Darth Vaderish evil genius all the insane lefties decry so venomously?" He looked more like Elmer Fudd than Darth Vader -- I wouldn't have been surprised to hear him start by saying, "Hewwo. Heh-heh-heh-heh-heh."

Do the idiots over on the PC or leftist side of the spectrum ever check themselves, to see if their assorted paranoid delusions are even basically plausible?

They demonized Ken Starr the same way they do Rover, and HE looked even more like Elmer Fudd than Rove, if possible. (And after all, Starr was assigned  the job of investigating the two Uriah Heeps in the White House -- he didn't invent it for himself.)

The nauseating guttersnipes on the left are as preposterous as they are contemptible.

Who's prompting now?

Posted by lge on Wednesday, March 26, 2008 5:07:13 PM
News Item:

Paul Waldman of The American Prospect says:

      "For months, I've been predicting that conservatives would delicately prompt voters to see Barack Obama through the lens of race. They'd drop hints, they'd make roundabout arguments, they'd find a hundred subtle ways to encourage people to vote their prejudices, while denying vociferously that they were doing anything of the sort."

Oh, CONSERVATIVES would delicately prompt voters! Not Obama, though! He wouldn't run an entire campaign on being the Black Candidate, the Post-Racial candidate, whom white voters could vote for in order to prove they're large-hearted, big-minded, compassionate citizens! No, just conservatives -- they're the only ones "delicately prompting"!

Obama knows he's got a lock on the black vote. Blacks will vote racial identity every time. So he's just got to lull and gull whitey, to get him so set aside racial solidarity and vote for a black nonentity in order to prove bona fides. Obama's still singing that lullaby:

Lullaby, and good night.
Just ignore Pastor Wright.
Go ahead and vote for me,
Or you're a racist white-ey.

Suck-ups like Waldman can't see that.

Obama's Sneaky Maneuver

Posted by lge on Friday, March 21, 2008 11:51:21 PM
I think this quote from Obama's latest self-extenuating speech says it all:

We can pounce on some gaffe by a Hillary supporter as evidence that she’s playing the race card, or we can speculate on whether white men will all flock to John McCain in the general election regardless of his policies.

That's what he wants to avoid, above all -- that white people should flock to the white candidate, just because he's white.

Obama knows blacks will vote for him, just because he's black. He plans on that, and trades on that. But he wants to create a lot of high-minded, lofty rationalizations to convince white people to "rise above race." That's what's behind all his two-faced rhetoric. "You whites must rise above race; we blacks will vote for the black guy, because we're an oppressed minority."

If elected, Obama will make whitey jump to a new tune, you can be sure of that -- a tune called by the likes of Jeremiah White and Jesse Jackson. That's the real "inside story" behind this pious hypocrite's campaign.

"I never really liked Hitler" -- captive S.S. soldier

Posted by lge on Sunday, March 16, 2008 2:38:17 PM
Obama emits a ringing denial of a certain select set of pronouncements of his minister's that have come to public attention:
I vehemently disagree and strongly condemn the statements...
Well, isn't that special! If you can dig up any other specific lunatic racist statements from his minister, Obama will condemn those too. But Obama never heard them himself -- he slept through every sermon from that frothing bigot for twenty years, apparently.

Obama reminds me of Nazi S.S. men after World War II -- under interrogation, they'd say, "Ya, I was a member of the Nazi party since 1934, but I never really liked Hitler."

Right... I believe that. And I believe all Obama's lame excuses now.

And did you notice that when people didn't lap us his lies, he moved on to attacking his questioners? Just like Hillary Clinton!
Sen. Barack Obama on Saturday decried "the forces of division" over race that he said are intruding into the Democratic presidential nomination contest.
Yeah, he decried those "racists" who don't like to be told that "white America" is the devil. This Holy-Joe stealth candidate is about as holy as Hillary Clinton, and no more.

The Latest Bush-Administration Economic Stupidity

Posted by lge on Sunday, March 16, 2008 12:25:28 PM
Reuters reports :
Paulson said the Bush administration continued to believe that "long-term economic strength is going to be reflected in the dollar."
Well, I says the Bush administration is a bunch of self-deluded infants. They're throwing away what previous generations built so laboriously, the entire basis of our prosperity and power, and selling out to the Chinese and any other country that has peon wages. They're allowing our manufacturing capacity, the whole foundation of our economy, to be shipped to China, along with our high technology, stolen secrets, and anything else the Chinese want.  

So a more accurate statement would be,
Long-term economic weakness is going to be reflected in the dollar.
 -- as it already has been. When we don't produce, but only consume -- like a huge, fat grub being fed by worker insects -- our amount of working capital, and our "excess of production over consumption," disappears. Therefore, as Adam Smith said,

The expence of the society in this case exceeds its revenue, and necessarily encroaches upon its capital. Its capital, therefore, must necessarily decay, and together with it, the exchangeable value of the annual produce of its industry.

And as a result,
The same quantity of money. . . cannot long remain in any country in which the value of the annual produce diminishes. The sole use of money is to circulate consumable goods. . . The quantity of money, therefore, which can be annually employed in any country must be determined by the value of the consumable goods annually circulated within it.
Since we can print money endlessly, we may have the same "quantity" of money, but it is worth less. Our prosperity is being shipped abroad, our national security and power are disappearing. No one will have to pay any attention to us before long -- we'll be too poor and too powerless to have any sway. But Bush and his crew of dumbasses -- they'll go on insisting that the Emperor's new clothes are beautiful, and that "free trade" is making us all rich.

Economics For Dummies

Posted by lge on Thursday, March 06, 2008 10:04:04 PM
"Free trade is essential to the creation of high-paying quality jobs," said Bush on Thursday.

What economic illiteracy! We need the rest of the world in order to have jobs? That doesn't even rise to the level of Cliff Notes economics. That's Economics for Dummies, economics for dimwits, economics sloganeering, economics bumper stickers.

In the first place, loss of productive capital is not what is meant by "free trade." Off-shoring of all our factories impoverishes us, costs us jobs, and makes the dollar not worth a plugged nickel.

In the second place, a growing amount of productive capital was identified by Adam Smith as the key, the essential source, of "wealth of nations."

In the third, look around! Don't all those deserted factories, with grass growing through the asphalt, disturb you? If not, you're self-deluded by the emperor's new clothes. You're able to cling to theory and discard reality. You can believe in the picture presented by your half-grasped theories, and shut your eyes to actual evidence.

In any case, our economy is being run, and ruined, by infants and dimwits. As Patrick Buchanan asked in a recent column,
Is there not a correlation between $4.3 trillion in trade deficits under Bush, the 3 million manufacturing jobs lost under Bush, the fall of the dollar by 50 percent against the euro under Bush and the resurgence of inflation, signaled by a quadrupling of the price of gold, under Bush?
Connect the dots, all you jackasses in Washington!

Physician, heal Thyself

Posted by lge on Sunday, March 02, 2008 12:10:15 PM
NEWS  ITEM:  The White House objects to what the AFP news agency called Israel's "deadly assault on the Hamas-run Palestinian strip."

(The AFP didn't mention that the "deadly assault" was launched in order to stop a deadly barrage of rockets into Israeli homes.)

"The violence needs to stop and the talks need to resume," National Security Council spokesman Gordon Johndroe told reporters at President George W. Bush's ranch in Texas.

Say, White House, maybe you'd better take a dose from your own prescription. Why don't you say about Iraq,"The violence needs to stop and the talks need to resume"? 

I'll tell you why: because that ignores the whole issue under contention, all the details, the whole history and reason the war in Iraq is being fought. You don't want simple-minded pieties when it concerns our own cassi belli. So why do you take the infantile, pious, "plague-on-both-your-houses" approach to Israel and the Muslim hordes who want to destroy it?

You, Mr. White House, are a victim of the unrelenting, very successful, propaganda barrage the Arabs have laid down for the last twenty years. (I've seen those miserable cretins and their guttersnipe pamphlets on campus.) You now subscribe to the highminded, fatuous view, "Nobody's right and nobody's wrong. It's just a failure to understand each others' viewpoints. They just need to sit down together and work out their differences."

Well as somebody said  -- maybe Woody Allen? -- the lion and lamb may lie down together, but the lamb won't get much sleep.

But how can you, White House, be such a lamebrain about a conflict over some other country's right to exist, and such a hardass about our own? Shouldn't there be a meeting point somewhere around the midriff?
