Violin Rhetoric

It's Mourning In America

Do you hear that shrill, high-pitched sound in the distance? It could be the world's saddest song being played on the world's smallest violin, but it's more likely the keening wail of Leftists who are distraught that Kamala Harris could not snatch victory, so to speak, based solely on her race(s), genitalia, and an odd conviction that people are fascinated and inspired by long-winded stories of being raised in a middle-class family.

The pain these people are experiencing is very real, and you should definitely not be laughing over it here and here. If you must laugh, you have permission to laugh at this...

All (well, most) kidding aside, I hate the fact that many people I know - good and intelligent people - are suffering because they've been media-trained to believe that Trump is Hitler, Democracy is over, and that MAGA stormtroopers will soon start the pogroms on Leftists, women, and minorities. All while laughing evilly. "Bwaa-ha-ha!" will ring throughout the land.

And in complete disregard of the Paris Climate Accord, the Trump administration will be polluting our dwindling supply of clean air with the black smoke cascading from the high-capacity ovens the Orange Man will be building using stolen Social Security funds.

This is pain that need not exist which is being intentionally inflicted on well-intended Americans by the media and their string-pullers. And that's not right. It's cruel and makes a mockery of "fair" elections. And I'm hoping that somehow, something can be done about it under the new administration. 

Unlike those on the left, I am against any limits on Free Speech and know that "misinformation" can't be pinned down or controlled. But what we've been seeing for a long time goes beyond that, with multiple news outlets phrasing their lies and insinuations with precisely the same language. That coordinated effort is not so much a Free Speech issue as a potential RICO violation.

How to handle it? I don't know. But even Leftists don't deserve the psychological tortures being inflicted on them from what they believe to be their own side.

Peeking? Duck!

Here we finally are at (almost) Election Day. Which means that today, Monday November 4th, is likely the last normal day we're going to see for a long, long time.  Because, if it hasn't already by the time this is published, the sh*t is going to hit the fan in a very, very big way...

It's a good time to get into the umbrella business

Election Day itself is unlikely to resolve anything or even pick a winner between the experienced and successful former President and the certifiable blithering idiot (with a Vagina Of Color!) whose current administration has done almost irreparable damage to our nation...and is hungry to do more.

The media and Leftists have primed much of the electorate to believe the Trump is Hitler incarnate and his voters are KKK members on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and Nazis on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. On Sunday, of course, they go to church and handle snakes, speak in tongues, and roll around on the floor hoping that their concealed firearms don't start shooting spontaneously.

Okay, I put that in a funny way (I can't help myself) but there's really nothing at all funny about it.  Much of the American public on the Left has been fully indoctrinated with hate and stoked to such a fearful fever pitch that they are ready to embrace violence of any amount committed in their names if it will help "save Democracy" from...um...election results.

If Trump wins, all hell is going to break loose. And if Trump loses, there's likely to be some hell-raising too, albeit of a legal and non-violent nature, since he's basically running against a Macaw that has only learned about four phrases to cackle loudly and unpredictably.

But of course, it's not that simple. Kamala the Kommie Kandidate is irrelevant. Trump's real battle is with the Deep State power brokers who will not easily give up their preferred ways of doing dirty, highly profitable business. The media, the intelligence agencies, the DOJ, and more. All will be fighting Trump and undermining him to an even greater degree than in his previous administration.

Make no mistake - the Deep State wants Trump dead and certainly seems to be pulling the strings to make it happen. And they thrive on chaos and are expert in creating it; don't be surprised by sudden military actions overseas, terrorist attacks, health scares, power outages, rioters in the streets "mostly peacefully" burning down buildings...and if those buildings are filled with "Nazis," well, so much the better. As long as the "garbage" people go into the ovens, then it's cool, right?

Big things are brewing. I'm no more of a nut that I ever was (discuss among yourselves), but I've laid in some extra food, water, batteries, and toilet paper (there's never enough toilet paper in post-apocalyptic scenarios) in case of (ahem) "disruptions" coming our way.

I care deeply about the results of this election. But I've got a nagging worry that we're all sitting on an enormous powder keg...and November 5th is the day the fuse gets lit.

Spoiler alert: there are no winners in this scenario

Holiday Put On Ice

 First, a little something from the vault...

"Columbus Day" is now widely called "Indigenous Peoples Day," and even more widely called "White Shame Day" because so few people can spell indigenous. But it underscores the point that it is wrong for foreigners to come unbidden into a settled land, displace those who were already there, and destroy the existing cultures and institutions of its people.

Unless, of course, they're currently flooding across our southern border or being flown in, packed on cargo planes, by Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. And once here, they (checking Indigenous People Day grievances) "bring disease, exploit resources, commit acts of violence, and assert rights denied to those who already lived here."  You know, like those filthy Pilgrims did.

Or at least like they would have done, had their small wooden ships been capable of transporting millions of newcomers every year.

THE SENSELESS AND THE FROG

Depending on who you believe, it looks like Donald Trump is pulling ahead in the polls as time ticks down to the election. To help combat that, VP candidate Tim Walz has been assigned to "woo male voters" by gamboling about the countryside pretending to do "man's man" kind of things and failing hilariously.

Frankly, if you're trying to win votes with your ripping masculinity and unfathomable testosterone levels, you probably shouldn't disclose that your wife required intrauterine insemination treatments to get pregnant. That's a procedure in which the husband's sperm is delivered using a catheter that can actually go deep enough to get the job done, which apparently wasn't the case with whatever Tim brought to the party.

And if you're on a tour presenting your manlihood, so to speak, it's probably good to do so when there isn't a credible story being investigated about molesting underage boys when you were a schoolteacher. 

So with all that baggage, about the only thing Tim Walz can do to woo male voters is to demonstrate his working class, tough guy, hyper-heterosexuality using his body language.

Then again...
