On the Fact that (According to Numerous Researchers; Davidson, Blake, Coughlan, Shillington, Rodriguez, etc., etc.) the Typical Method for Black African Slave Dealers Was to Spring a Sudden and Vicious Attack in the Middle of the Night, Slaughter the Resistors, the Weak, the Elderly, the Sick, etc., and then Seize and Enslave the Survivors (Later Selling Them to Arabs, Europeans, Other Black Africans, etc.)

And the odds of race-baiting demagogues like Melissa Harris-Perry acknowledging this are what exactly?......Me, I'm gonna go with zero.

On the Fact that Fox News Is Still Spouting that Bullshit Narrative About Assad Supposedly Using Poison Gas on His Own People Even Though We Now Know that it Was More Likely the "Rebels" Who Did so (per the Excellent Reporting of Seymour Hersh)

I think that it's fair to conclude that Fox has moved to the center of late......BUT, yeah, the neocon element is still alive and well and this is a perfect example of it.......propaganda-wise, I'm saying.

On if Every Person in the U.S. Who's Praised Castro Since His Death Was Made to Live 10 Years in that Very Shit-Hole

Yeah, that would probably put a screaming halt to the bullshit foolishness.

On the Fact that (According to Numerous Researchers; Rayfield, McKay, Buckler, etc.) Joseph Stalin (During the Man's Reign of Terror) Enslaved Somewhere Between 12 and 18 Million of His Own Citizens - ALL CAUCASIANS (with Most Being Treated Far More Harshly than Blacks in the Antebellum South Were)

Yes sir, that's some more "suffering".......Sanders, what a fucking moron. 

On the Bernie Sanders Claim that White Folks "Don't Know What its Like to Suffer" - Quick Addendum

And the asshole's obviously never been to the Alleghenies, rural New Hampshire, etc........as I can fully assure him that there's suffering there.

On the Bernie Sanders Claim that White Folks "Don't Know What its Like to Suffer"

Wow, that's exactly what Stalin uttered when he rubbed out all the kulaks and caused the slow starvation deaths of 6,000,000 Ukrainians. Way to go, Bern.

The Worst Piece of "Fake News" in Recent Memory?

Yeah, I'm gonna go with when the mainstream media went with that bullshit narrative about Iraqi soldiers supposedly pulling Kuwaiti babies from incubators and of how the main witness that they used for this alleged war-crime was that lying piece of shit daughter of the Kuwaiti ambassador to the U.S.; the purpose of course being to pull us into yet another moronic war.......If I had to pick only one.

On the Legendary Comedian, Buddy Hackett

Not marbles in the mouth sounding enough.

On the Fact that Dennis Hopper Once Appeared as a Guest Panelist on What's My Line (in the Early '60s)

There's surreal and then there's surreal. This was surreal.

On the Fact that the Roles of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid Were Initially Supposed to Go to Broderick Crawford and Richard Boone

Yeah, I'm kidding.......Would have been cool, though, huh?

On the Concept of Coming to Turkey's Defense After that Increasingly Radicalized Pariah Nation Foolishly Decides to Pick a Fight with Russia (a Nuclear-Armed Russia, No Less)

It is total insanity and anyone who even suggests it should be drawn and quartered (can you say, John McCain?).......Oh, and that sonic boom that you're hearing in the background, relax. It's just Washington spinning in his grave, that's all (the fact that he warned the country about bullshit alliances like N.A.T.O. and is probably experiencing some indigestion because of them). 

On "Moderate Rebels"

They only exist in the deranged, dementia-addled brains of war-mongering buffoons like John McCain and Hillary Clinton and piss upon the mainstream media (the BBC, especially) for enabling this bullshit narrative.

On the Fact that Japan and South Korea Are Both Far More Ethnocentric than the U.S. Is and the Left Never, Ever, EVER Defames Them, Calls Them Racist, etc.

More proof-positive that the left has no real moral rectitude and that these folks are strictly virtue-signalling, engaging in pathological altruism, self-hate, etc., etc..

On the Distinct Likelihood that it Was Seth Rich Who Leaked the DNC Emails to Wikileaks

Why don't we just ask him? Oh wait........

On the Fact that According to Article Five of the N.A.T.O Charter, if Russia and Turkey Square Off and Go to War, We and the Rest of the N.A.T.O. Countries Must Come to Turkey's Assistance (Because Turkey Is a Part of N.A.T.O.)

So, ya' still think that N.A.T.O. is a prudent idea, neocon schmucks (the fact that this could quite conceivably lead to WW3, a nuclear disaster, etc.)?

On What Happens to a Woman When Montgomery Clift Walks Out the Door for the Last Time

They don't take it well, I've been told (a la, Ms. Reed above).

On the Fact that (According to Numerous Researchers; Warnock, Anderson, Blake, etc.) the Roman Empire at the Height of its Power Had Close to 120,000,000 Slaves - 99% of Whom Were White Folks (All of Whom Were Treated Far More Harshly than Blacks in America Were)

And yet we continue to hear moronic racial demagogues like Melissa Harris-Perry try and convince us that black slavery in America was some sort of uniquely heinous evil. How fucking ignorant.

On What it Looks Like When a Strong Western Woman Stands Up to an Islamic Dirtbag Male

    Kind of like this, apparently (with her actually having spent time on the ground in Syria covering this shit and him lobbing slanderous bombs from his comfortable nest in England). Go girl!

On the Fact that Even Four Years Ago, Ron Paul Was Able to See Through this Syria Bullshit (i.e., that it Was Just Another Mindless, Propaganda-Based Intervention that Would Further Destabilize the Middle-East, Balloon the Budget Deficit, etc.)

      And yet we continue to elect idiots like Clinton, Bush 1, Bush 2, Obama, and Trump, with endless wars as the result. Unbelievable, huh?

On the Fact that the Mainstream Media and U.S. Government Are Lying Through Their Teeth About the War in Syria in What Is Clearly an Attempt to Help Israel and Demonize Assad and Putin

    Gee, what a surprise, huh (the Iraq BS 2.0)?

On Michelle Obama Proclaiming that We Now Know What it's Like to Have "No Hope"

Sorry but if your prospects in life are totally contingent upon which disgusting politician wins the Presidency, you probably have bigger fish to fry.......No hope, indeed.

On the Fact that Howard Dean Recently Inferred (Without a Shred of Evidence, No Less) that Glenn Greenwald and His Web-Site, "The Intercept", Were Being Bankrolled by the Russians and Iranians

I'm not a big fan of suing people generally but if I was Greenwald, oh yeah.......Ohhhhhh yeah.

On the Fact that Some of My Other Sources and Inspirations Are Seymour Hersh, Jonathan Turley, Diana Johnstone ("Queen of Chaos", a Must-Read Book), Gareth Porter, and Jeremy Scahill - NONE OF WHOM ARE ON THE RIGHT (Never Mind the "Alt-Right")

And yet these humiliation-resistant, barely intelligible leftist bloggers continue to try and pigeon-hole me. Oh well, you gotta give 'em props for persistence, I guess.

The Last Time that the Arabs or Africans Were Made to Feel Guilty for Their Thousand Year Plus Participation in the Slave Trade?

There isn't a calendar long enough for that one, folks. As in NEVER (as opposed to white Europeans who continue to be shamed even today). 

On the Fact that Even Though Julian Assange and Other Wikileaks Sources Have Repeatedly Claimed that Russia Was NOT the Source of the Leaks (http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2016/dec/14/craig-murray-says-source-of-hillary-clinton-campai/), the Mainstream Media Continues to Eschew this Reality and Hammer Home Instead Some Paranoiac Narrative of Russian Espionage

So, they're siding with John McCain and Lindsey Graham then. Oh boy.

On the C.I.A.'s Claim (from Unnamed Sources to the Mainstream Media - Two Strikes, Right There) that Russia Attempted to Influence the U.S. Presidential Election

So the entity that has played a part in the overthrow of numerous governments over the years (Iran, Guatemala, the Dominican Republic, South Vietnam - the Brutal Murder of No Dihn Diem in 1963 Literally Destroying that Country, Iraq, etc., etc.) is now proclaiming foreign interference in OUR elections?......Yeah, I'm going to have to go irony-meter-10 on this one, folks (and to steal a phrase from Reverend Wright, "the chickens have come home to roost"). Sorry. 

On if Russia and its Allies Had Helped to Install a Bellicose Puppet Government in Mexico or Canada (as America and N.A.T.O. Plainly Did in Ukraine)

Can you even begin to imagine?......Yeah, it's time that we developed some perspective on this.

On the Fact that Historically the Word, Liberal, Was Always Used to Denote a Libertarian or Classical Liberal (a Person Who Champions the Primacy of the Individual Over the Tyranny of the State Collective) and that it Wasn't Until the Commie-Adoring Progressives of the Early 20th Century (the Soviet Junket of 1927 - Google it) Pilfered the Word that it Started Becoming Synonymous with the Left

Yeah, time to steal it back from these fascists, I say.  

On Being so Intellectually Bereft as to Parrot Mainstream Media Buzz-Words Like, Fake News, and Attempt to Argue that There's this Cavernous Difference Between the Two in Terms of Accuracy When in Fact There Is More than Enough Blame to Go Around

These leftists are moronic and insane but it goes beyond that. They are literally trying to crush dissent and squash free-speech; in the media, in colleges and universities, and even in the halls of Congress where they seem to be hearkening back to the not so subtle fascism of tyrants such as Adams, Lincoln, and Wilson (something called the Countering Disinformation and Propaganda Act). We need to stop this shit and, yes, stay vigilant......'cause you know that they will for sure.

On the Fact that Mrs. Clinton Apparently Looks Down at Starbucks Baristas

Sorry but I'll take a good barista over a piece-of-shit lawyer and politician any day.......I mean, it's not even close.......................................................................................................P.S. And, no, working at Starbucks isn't a horrible job. I was at one of the Starbucks in Poughkeepsie the other week and was able to overhear this chick being interviewed and I can tell you that the starting wage is decent, the tips are great, regular raises are given, stock options are offered after six months, tuition-reimbursement to Arizona State on-line is available, you are provided one free meal a shift along with unlimited drinks, AND you're given one free bag of coffee every week (my God, it takes me four months to go though a pound of coffee beans). Not too shabby............Oh, and you don't have to pimp yourself out, either. Don't forget about that. 

On the Fact that I Eviscerated Knucklehead Christie When He Threatened a No-Fly-Zone Over Syria and so Why in the Hell Wouldn't I Do the Same to that Stumbling and Bumbling, Battle-Axed Tyrant in a Fecal-Stained Pants-Suit, Hillary?

Yeah, I guess that having a consistent moral yardstick is just too much of an anathema in today's mind-numbingly dumb progressive world. Sad, huh?  

On All of Those European Communist Lesbians Who for Some Strange Reason Have Decided to Join Forces with the Muslim Community

They do realize, don't they, that if Sharia Law ultimately does become the new norm, they will either be killed or forced to have sex with some of the scuzziest slopeheads on the planet and remain in a perpetual state of pregnancy 'til 40, 45?......Apparently not, huh?

On the Fact that the Only X Chromosomes in Kaitlin Jenner's Whole Body Are in His or Her (Pick a Pronoun - Whatever Floats Your Boat) Sperm Cells

Again, I don't care what people do with their own bodies as long as they aren't harming others (call it the libertarian in me). I'll even call a male tranny a she if it makes HER happy. But let's not kid ourselves. The fact of the matter is that Jenner isn't any more of a woman than I am a 28 year-old and being that a lot of these people end up changing their minds after a while, maybe we shouldn't go off completely cocked on this stuff and instead employ a modicum of prudence. Only a suggestion.    

On the Fact that Two of My Personal Favorite Hangouts Are Antiwar Radio and Antiwar.com

I dare the leftist degenerates and intellectual lightweights to call these places, "alt-right". Seriously.

On the Fact that if Pervert Podesta Was Really and Truly Concerned About Hacking, He Probably Should Have Come Up with a Better Password than, Say, p@ssw0rd - https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/22335

Too much to ask?

On the Fact that Some of These Virulent Leftists Have Actually Gone from Calling Everybody Who Voted for Trump a Member of the "Alt-Right" (Leftist-Speak for Racist, Essentially) to Using that Same Moniker on Folks Who Didn't Vote for Trump but Who Also Didn't Vote for that Corrupt, Dishonest, War-Mongering Piece-of-Shit Lawyer, Hillary

I think that there are two things at work here; a) the fact that these bozos are of an exceedingly low intellect and hence have to perceive everything in a rudimentary binary fashion and b) the fact that they are also possessive of an immaturity which borders on the insane and which seemingly creates this incessant and insipid need to be rallied around.......Those would be my guesses, at least. 

On the Fact that Global Warming Fruit-Cake, David Titley, Recently Made a Monstrous Deal Over the Fact that the Satellite Temperature Data Has Been Adjusted Upward Several Times AGAINST THE SKEPTIC VIEW but Apparently Has No Problem with the Fact that James Hansen and the Rest of Those Dishonest Criminals at Goddard Have Adjusted the Land Temperature Readings Hundreds of Times ALWAYS IN FAVOR OF THE CATASTROPHIST VIEW (the Bastards All but Wiping Out the Post-War Cooling Period)

And the fact that this asshole works at Penn State with serial liar and 24/7 litigator, Michael Mann, is simply a coincidence, I guess.

On the Fact that No Imagined Evil Can Ever Come Close to Matching the Actual Evil (the Murders, the Starvation, the Persecutions, etc.) that Materialized in the Soviet Union from 1919 to 1959

Great place for a honeymoon, though. Just ask Bernie.  

On the Scurrilous Accusation that I Get All of My News from Fake News Sites (You Know, as Opposed to Legitimate Sources Such as Rachel MadDUH, the Young Jerks, the Clinton News Network, the New York Crimes, the War Street Journal, the Washington Compost Heap, the Weekly Substandard, Snopes, Dan I'd Rather Not, Spittin' Chris Matthews, PolitiCON, etc.)

I get my information from a wide variety of sources, NONE OF WHICH I TAKE AT FACE VALUE (as opposed to these leftist degenerate fools who hang on every word that Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow say as if it was gospel). So, with this Pizzagate story, for example, yes, I did watch some of the Youtbe videos on it but I also went directly to Wikileaks and examined the emails for myself and, guess what, folks. It appears that these Podesta brothers (along with a small cadre of other perverts) ARE communicating in some sort of pedophilia code......and not only is the mainstream media not covering these cretins, they're giving them cover!!............So, ya' still bent out of shape over this fake news, leftists?........................................................................................................P.S. And, no, I never said a single time that Mrs. Clinton herself was involved in this. That was a bald-faced lie and the person who said it is a dirty, slimy, low-down slice of shit. Excuse my French. 

On the Fact that Bill Clinton Went to Haiti in 2010 and Actually Tried to Spring Some Piece-of-Shit Chick Accused of Child Trafficking - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vzVAcn1YkcY (and, No, the Dude in this Video ISN'T a Member of the "Alt-Right" in that He Voted for Jill Stein)

Again, if this was Donald Trump, the mainstream media (now that's some real fake news!) would have been all over the thing but because its Clinton - crickets.

On Who Gets to Determine What Is and Isn't Fake News

Let me guess here. The government and their servants in the legacy media.......I nailed it, huh?

On Being Called by a Small Regiment of Mental Midgets and Lowbrow Leftists a Member of Something Called the "Alt-Right" (the Latest Slur that These Bozos Have Concocted for People Who They Disagree with, Fail to Comprehend, etc.)

Alright, let's look at the facts here. a) I didn't vote for Trump and was never even tempted to. b) I have criticized Trump countless times over the years and have actually stepped it up somewhat since the election (though, yes, I do find him somewhat more palatable than the serial country-ruiner, Hillary). c) I voted for Johnson for President and pulled the lever for only one Republican on my entire ballot (compare that to these leftist assholes who unquestionably voted straight Democrat down the line). d) I haven't voted Republican for President since 1988. And e) while I'm plainly not an expert on the alt-right (I can only name two dudes off the top of my head; Vox Day and Richard Spencer - neither of whom have impressed me very much), I DO know that I strongly disagree with them on trade and modestly disagree with them on immigration (foreign-policy-wise - we might line up; staying out of foreign entanglements, for example).............So, does that sound like an alt-right person to you?...Only if you're insane, correct?......................................................................................................P.S. And how do I define myself? First off, I would prefer not to but if compelled, I would go with what is stated at the top of my blog; fiscally conservative, socially tolerant, anti-war and add to that; a libertarian-leaning independent who champions free-speech and who eschews political correctness. Boom, done. 

On the 1945 On-Screen Pairing of Gregory Peck and Greer Garson in MGM's Monster Hit, "The Valley of Decision"

I'll take, "Classic Movies in Which the Leading Man Is Slightly Prettier than the Leading Lady", for a thousand, Alex.

On the Fact that if Donald Trump Had Mismanaged the Haitian Relief Effort as Piss-Badly as the Clintons Have AND Had Given One of His Family Members a Lucrative Gold-Mining Deal AND Had Pissed-Off Haitian-Americans to the Tune of Countless Protests, the Mainstream Media Would Have Eviscerated Him BUT Since it Was the Clintons Who Were the Possessors of Such a Horrible Legacy, Yeah, Not so Much

Let's face it, folks. The Russians didn't stand a chance and so even if they DID try and influence the election, CNN, MSNBC, The New York Times, The Washington Post, PBS, etc., etc........Come on.

On the Fact that the Gal (Monica Petersen, Who Was Investigating Child Sex-Trafficking Rings in Haiti) Who Stated this; “That’s Two Huge Human Trafficking Scandals, an Environmental Degradation Scandal, a Social Displacement Scandal, a Presidential Election Scandal, a Scandal with Billions in Unaccounted for Earthquake Aid… All Leading Directly Back to the Clinton's Racist Cronyism in Haiti”, Is Now Deceased (Commiserating with Seth Rich, Perhaps)

Yeah, I hate to get all conspiratorial on you but, damn, the bodies are really starting to stack up here.

On the Fact that Media Matters Has Received Over $1 Million in Rental Income Over the Past Five Years and Hasn't Declared a Penny of it on Their Income Tax Forms - http://www.thecitizensaudit.com/2016/12/13/david-brocks-media-matters-has-hidden-1052500-from-the-irs-since-2010/

So when the left says that the rich need to fair share, they actually mean, the not so well connected rich apparently.

On the Fact that (According to Sources Far Too Many to Mention; Blake, Coughlan, Kishlanszky, Madden, Crane, Drescher, Blassingame, etc., etc.) LITERALLY Every African Slave that Was Brought Over to the Americas (with Most of Those Going to South America and the Caribbean) Was Hunted Down, Brutally Marched Through the Rough African Interior, and Sold Off by a Fellow African

And yet somehow we're still led to believe that the only barbarous participants in this whole sordid affair were Victorian white Southern farmers. Thank you, Yankee historians, politically correct schmucks, leftist academics, etc..

On the Fact that I've Already Criticized Trump More as a President-Elect than Those Partisan Leftist Dolts; Shaw, Octopus, etc., Have Criticized Obama During His Entire Eight Years as President

And yet, I'm the unreasonable one, they say.......Only in America, folks.

On Mrs. Clinton's Foreign Policy

Yeah, I'm gonna go with, "John McCain with Vagina", on this one, folks.......And then scurry for the fallout-shelter.

On John McCain Going on Television and Calling Vladimir Putin a "Butcher"

Sorry but after all of the interference and destruction that America has engaged in over the past 50 years or so, Mr. McCain's demonizing and hyperbole just no longer resonate with me.............I mean, they all (Ho Chi Minh, Saddam Hussein, Slobodan Milosevic, the al Assads, and now Putin) can't be the next Hitler, can they? CAN THEY? 

On the Fact that (http://www.forbes.com/sites/scottbeyer/2016/03/01/what-is-it-like-to-escape-cuba-by-raft/#624a70a190c2) Upwards of 80,000 People Have Died at Sea Trying to Escape Castro's Cuba (a Figure that Is Almost 600 Times the Number of Those Who Died Trying to Scale the Berlin Wall)

And yet the New York Times, Michael Moore, Louis Farrakhan, and Newsweek continue to peddle the meme that Cuba is this wonderful place to live. UN-REAL.

On Jill Stein Claiming to Be a Champion of Democracy, Electoral Integrity, etc. While at the Same Time Celebrating the Life of Fidel Castro, One of the Most Vile, Treacherous, Blood-Thirsty, and Anti-Democratic Pieces of Shit of the 20th Century

Jill Stein is a fucking moron (the fact that apparently thinks that solar panels, windmills, and ethanol can replace coal, oil, natural gas, nuclear, and hydro probably should have been our first indicator). Do we really need to know more than that? 

On the Fact that (According to William Bradford Himself) the Early Difficult Winters of the Plymouth Colony Weren't so Much the Result of Poor Preparation (Not Bringing Enough Food with Them on Their Voyage) or Even of the the Harsh Climate but Much More the Result of the Collectivist Policies in Which Many Folks Either Stole or Didn't Carry Their Weight

So because of socialism, in other words. What a surprise.....................................................................................................P.S. And, yes, it all started to turn around in 1624 when the colony embraced private property, a market-oriented paradigm, etc., to the point where these citizens were growing so much corn that they were actually able to export a fair amount of it.

On the Fact that Even Though the F.B.I., N.S.A., and the Office of the Department of National Intelligence Have ALL Concluded that There Exists No Strong Evidence of Russian Interference in the U.S. Electoral Process, We Still Have Misinformation Outlets Like CNN, MSNBC, and the Washington Post Trying to Convince Us Otherwise (with Unnamed C.I.A. Sources Being Their Evidence)

And not even the C.I.A. has tried to allege that there was hacking into the actual voting apparatus, just that there was hacking into the DNC and that this supposedly influenced media coverage (an absurd allegation in that media largely ignored the Wikileaks releases in no small part because it showed how THEY, the media, was influencing the election though collusion, deception, etc.). THAT'S IT and, so, yeah, this is little more than just another effort to delegitimize Trump and maybe even steal the election. 

On the Fact that the New York Post Recently Did an Article About a White "Granny" Being Robbed at Knife-Point and Right Above the Article They Showed a Menacing Picture of Some White Dude Holding a Knife - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hlFNa6zq3kM

Yeah, the only problem here is that the perpetrator was black. Simply an oversight, I'm sure.............Yeah, right. 

On the Odds that if Mrs. Clinton Had Narrowly Won the Election, Time Magazine Would Have Referred to Her as the "President of the Divided States of America" (this, While Posing Her to Look Like Some Mafia Big-Shot)

Yeah, I'm gonna go 5 to 10%, at best (the fact that they loved Mrs. Clinton and thoroughly despised Trump).

On the Fact that (According to Historians, Clark D. Moore, Ann Dunbar, and Basil Davidson) Slavery Existed and Was Widespread in Sub-Saharan Africa for at Least 1,600 Years Prior to the Arab and European Slave Traders Arriving There and Virtually Every Slave that Was "Purchased" Had Already Been Enslaved and Brutally Treated by Black Africans

And yet blacks are never held accountable for their role in slavery which was far more brutal and long-lasting than that of white, Southern Americans, ever. EVER.......Hm, could it possibly be that the left is just so damned racist that they refuse to even think that black folks COULD be held accountable? 'Cause that's what it looks like to me, people.

On the Fact that Over the Last Four Weeks or so Democrats and the Media Elites Have Blamed Everything from Voter Fraud to Racism to Russian Hacking to Internalized Misogyny for Hillary's Defeat and it Has Never Once Dawned on Them that the Real Reason for this Calamitous Event Was the Fact that They Had a Shit-Show Candidate Who's Wrecked and Destabilized Numerous Countries, Taken Money from Dirt-Bag Governments Like Qatar and Saudi Arabia, Threatened to Nuke Iran, Armed Terrorists in Syria, Lied to the Families of the Benghazi Victims, and Screwed the Dirt-Poor Haitians

There comes a point in one's life when you have to look inward and, yes, that would be my advice to these people. Big time.  

On the Fact that Julian Assange Has Repeatedly Stated that the Russians Were Not the Source of the DNC Leaks and Has Strongly Insinuated that the Real Source Was Seth Rich (You Know, that Poor DNC Employee Who Supported Bernie Sanders and Who Ended Up with Four Bullets in His Back)

Alright, let's sort this through. Julian Assange, a fellow who has never lied as far as we know and who has never once released a fraudulent or hoax email, asserts that the Russians weren't the source while the media and the government, both of whom have lied 'til the cows came home, says that they were. Hmmm, who to believe here? 

On the Mainstream Media's Claim that Russia Attempted to Influence the Outcome of the U.S. Presidential Election

Oh, so kind of like what Hillary and her fellow N.A.T.O. ramrods did in 2014 when they helped to lay the groundwork for that coup d’etat in Ukraine (the fact that Mrs. Clinton sent former Dick Cheney adviser, Victoria Nuland, over there to depose the neutralist leader, Viktor Yanukovych, and replace him with a virulently anti-Russian U.S. puppet by the name of Arseniy Yatsenyuk, an act that has led to a bloody civil war)? OK, I get it now........................................................................................................P.S. And, yes, the pot calling the kettle black here, too - big time (the fact that the mainstream media was going full-throttle for Hillary and it wasn't even close TRYING TO INFLUENCE THE ELECTION).                                                                                                                              

On the Fact that Even Though Scientific Minds from Aristotle to Richard Feynman Have Repeatedly Told Us that a) Skepticism Is One of the Most Critical Aspects of Science and b) Science Doesn't Advance Via a Show of Hands (by Consensus, in Other Words), We Still Have Dolts Like Sheldon Whitehouse, Barack Obama, and Barbara Boxer Going Around Trying to Convince Us Otherwise with Their Ludicrous Global Warming Catastrophism Claims

And I'll bet that these schmucks have never actually looked at the data; the satellite and radiosonde balloon temperature data which shows modest warming since 1979, the cyclonic activity data (I refer you here to Ryan Maue of Florida State) which shows that we're actually in a low period for hurricanes, the ARGO data which shows that ocean temperatures have been fairly consistent for 13 years now, the 97% of the climate models that have seriously overstated the atmospheric warming, the global sea ice charts which have shown a virtual straight line for forty years now (http://paranoiacstoogetalk.blogspot.com/2013/03/on-global-sea-ice-trends-1979-to-present.html), the graphs which show a chaotic correlation (at best) between CO2 and warming for the better part of two decades now, etc., etc........Seriously, you wanna bet?  

On the Fact that the Actual Retarded Baggers at Big Y and Stop and Shop Always Seem to Do a Much Better Job than the Non-Retarded but Majorly Clueless Ones Do

And they don't try and finagle $15 an hour, either. Win, win.

On the Fact that a Lot of the Same Conservative Talking-Heads (Hannity, Coulter, Dobbs, Ingraham, etc.) Who Blasted Obama (Legitimately, in My Opinion) for His Crony Capitalism and Boondoggle Stimulus Spending Are Suddenly Not Only Accepting Mr. Trump's Brand of These Very Same Things (the Carrier Deal, the Fact that the Dude Wants to Spend a TRILLION Dollars More on Infrastructure, etc.) They're Lauding Him for Them

I write a great deal about liberal hypocrisy and will continue to but, yeah, the right is guilty of it, too - exhibit A, right here.......................................................................................................P.S. And, yes, the fact that Cenk Uygur of the "Young Turks" is praising Trump for the Carrier deal is a massive enough indictment of its own, thank you.

On the Fact that There Actually Exist Social Justice Tribunals in Ontario, Canada Where People Can Literally Be Brought Before it for as Little as Offending (Through Words) Some Member of a Protected Class

People in the U.S. take freedom of speech for granted and they shouldn't. 'Cause what's happening up north there could easily happen here if we aren't vigilant. Just look at America's state-run colleges and universities and extrapolate for yourself.......Yeah, huh?

On the Fact that President-Elect Trump Seemingly Brow-Beat Carrier Into Not Moving Their Indiana Facility to Mexico (There Appears to Have Been Some Bribery as Well)

Somebody else used to brow-beat businesses and industries. You may have hear of him, a dude by the name of HUGO CHAVEZ (you know, that deceased leader of a country in which the folks are essentially eating out of garbage cans now in large measure because of these strong-armed tactics - hello!!)!!!

On the Fact that (According to Historians, Garcilaso de la Vega and Milton Meltzer) the Incas and the Aztecs Both Practiced Slavery and it Was Amongst the Most Brutal and Virulent Form of it Ever Instituted (the Fact that it Included Such Barbarous Acts as Cannibalism and Human Sacrifice)

Yeah, I think that even the most ardent SJW is going to have a hard time blaming white Europeans males for this one - try though they may.

On the Fact that the Trauma Perspective on Rape Tries to Assert that Any Inconsistency, Contradiction, or Ludicrous Absurdity in the Rape Victim's Narrative Can Be Explained by Her Trauma and so Hence There Is Nothing that the Woman Can Say or Do to Destroy Her Credibility - NOTHING

So any woman at any time can accuse any man of rape and the chick must be believed no matter what......and due-process be damned. Wow, huh (the fact that I've read Kafka parables, South African laws, and Beckett plays that have made more sense than this abject horseshit, etc.)?

On Obama Claiming that He Now Fears a Scary New Form of "Tribalism"

Oh, that's precious. The fellow who's done more than any other President in recent memory to bring about divisiveness and identity politics (racial, ethnic, economic, etc.) is now trying to forewarn us that the shit is about to hit the fan. Talk about a lack of self awareness................................................................................................P.S. And, yes, the guy is also a moron in that as anyone who's studied this shit knows, identity politics leads to violence (as it has in Sri Lanka, India, Malaysia, Nigeria, Yugoslavia, Iraq, Sudan, South Africa, etc, etc.) and it rarely ends well.......Of course now we have Trump and so who knows what's next.  

On the Fact that the National Organization for Women Recently Argued that that Idiot Chick, Mattress Girl (AKA, Emma Sulkowicz), Who Falsely Accused a Fellow Student of Rape and Who Then Made a Spectacle of Herself by Carrying a Mattress Around for Frigging Ever, Is Actually an Inspiration for All of the Real Rape Victims

So, ya' still need more evidence that radical feminism has gone off the damned rails?...Hopefully not.

On the Fact that that Black Actor (Brandon Victor Dixon) Who Recently Dressed Down Mike Pence After a Broadway Performance of "Hamilton" Once Tweeted this Little Ditty -

"St. Patty's day weekend is like Christmas for black dudes who like white chicks. Happy holidays boys."............So, having sex with inebriated white chicks, in other words; a sentiment that if a white man had said it would have garnered much vitriol but because it was a black man - CRICKETS. Way to show your moral rectitude, SJWs.

On the Fact that Virtually Every One of the 1990s Climate Models Overstated (by as Much as Three-Fold) the Amount of Atmospheric Warming

Yeah, that doesn't exactly bellow out, "the debate is over", to me.........................................................................................................P.S. I also find it quite hilarious that these morons no longer refer to their predictions as predictions but rather, projections (so, yeah, they're even moving the goalposts on this).

On Paul Krugman's Brain-Disordered (to the Point of Making Wile E. Coyote Seem Cogent) Proposal to Pay Down the Debt with a Trillion Dollar Platinum Coin

Fort a platinum coin to be worth a trillion dollars the thing would have to be the size of a brownstone. But as we all know here the inflation-worshiping and spendaholic Krugman isn't talking about real value but fiat value and so the platinum aspect of this whole harebrained scheme is totally superfluous and deceptive. To steal a ditty from Malraux, “Man is not what he thinks he is, he is what he hides.”

On the Fact that Neocon Lunatic, Ben Stein, Recently Tried to Argue that a California Secession from the Union Would de Facto Lead to a Second Civil War

Only in the warped mind of a statist like Stein would a notion like this seem logical. a) It assumes that secession is illegal (it isn't in that the Union was voluntary from the beginning and there is NOTHING in the Constitution which prohibits it), b) it assumes that the only response to it is the strong arm of the central government to squash it (and, please, keep in mind here that this asshole worked for Nixon, RICHARD NIXON), and c) the fellow doesn't even know what a civil war is (i.e., an armed conflict that is fought for the control of A government) and until you convince me that California wants to take over Washington D.C.......or even Tallahassee, Florida, I'm probably gonna stick with my assertion that California leaving the Union and the Feds raining death-blows on 'em doesn't fit the bill.............Ben Stein, LOL!

On the Fact that President Obama's Brain-Dead Science Adviser, John Holdren, Once Uttered this -

“Indeed, it has been concluded (by him, of course) that compulsory population-control laws, even including laws requiring compulsory abortion, could be sustained under the existing Constitution if the population crisis became sufficiently severe to endanger the society (again, as determined by him).”............And this - “A program of sterilizing women after their second or third child, despite the relatively greater difficulty of the operation than vasectomy, might be easier to implement than trying to sterilize men.......The development of a long-term sterilizing capsule that could be implanted under the skin and removed when pregnancy is desired opens additional possibilities for coercive fertility control.”.............................................................................................................P.S. And, while, no, he never explicitly came out and advocated these measures, the mere fact that he was willing to play footsie with them is good enough for me. Ba by, Holdren.  

On the Concept of Schools Making 6 and 7 Year-Olds Keep a Food Diary

Yeah, that shit has soft fascism written all over it and what if the kid has pizza three, four nights in a row? Are they gonna come down on the parent?......Yeah, I don't like this, period.

On the Fact that Environmental Nut-Case, Paul Ehrlich, Once Suggested that We Might Have to Adulterate the Food and Water of Africans with Sterility Drugs to Keep Their Population Down

But Trump is the racist.......Unreal.

On the Fact that 97% (a Number that I Just Made Up Out of Whole Cloth but that's Beside the Point) of Clothing Experts Now Say that the Emperor Is Wearing Fine New Clothes

So we can finally put that debate to bed, I guess.......What a relief!!

On the Fact that American Colleges Have Morphed from a Place of Vigorous Debate, Serious Scholarship, and Dispassionate Inquiry to a Nightmarish Hellhole of Mindless Conformity, Bald Ideological Servitude, Anti-Intellectual Thuggery, and Grievance-Fueled Victimhood

And this (these virtual indoctrination camps) helps the country compete in a complex, interdependent, and ever-changing global economy......how exactly? 

On the Fact that Lincoln Didn't Even Mention Slavery for the First Couple Years of the Civil War and it Was Only When the Body Count Started Approaching Napoleonic Levels that the Dude Must Have Figured that Those Real Reasons (Saving the Union, Collecting the Tax, etc.) Were No Longer Going to Be Palatable to the Public

So, ya' still put him number one?

On the Fact that Some Folks Are Blaming the Terror Attacks in France on the French People for Not Being Tolerant Enough to the New Muslim Immigrants

Yeah, I guess that all of that food, housing, welfare, and safe-haven that the French provided just wasn't tolerant enough.......Insanity, anybody?

On Obama's Departure Drawing Nigh

And he's still "clinging" to his statism, discredited Keynesian economic policies, and specious arguments pertaining to race and crime, climate change, etc........So much for him believing in evolution.......of thought.  

On the Fact that the Racism Charge Didn't Seem to Stick to Trump

Yeah, the left just cried wolf too many times (the fact that they said pretty much the same stuff about McCain, Romney, the Bushes, etc.) and the public has apparently had enough of 'em (being talked-down to and insulted by a bunch of overrated and insular academic schmucks and members of the corrupt political class tends to gets stale after awhile, I guess - whoda' thunk it?).....................................................................................................P.S. And, no, this isn't to say that Trump didn't say some over-the-top things (about that Mexican judge, Muslims as a whole, etc.) and/or strong-arm his positions, just that when you go to the well too many times you're bound to lose some credibility, that's all.

On the Fact that the Movie, "300", Tries to Portray the Spartans as this Great Band of Freedom Fighters When In Actuality They Were Conquerors Who Enslaved and Brutalized Their Subjects at an Alarming Rate and Who Were Just as Imperialistic as the Persians Were

So, yes, the Iranians actually do have a beef here, a legitimate one.

On the Fact that Even Though They Harbored Many More Slaves than the United States and Treated Them Exponentially Worse, Brazil Was Able to Get Rid of this Institution with Minimal Bloodshed (Ditto, Every Other Country Except for Haiti)

I guess that it (war and bloodshed) just wasn't in "God's plan" (the bogus justification that Lincoln concocted as the body-count rose).

On the Fact that the 16 Year-Old Black Street-Thug Who Murdered 29 Year-Old Cyclist, Robert Ponsi, in Baltimore Is Going to Be Tried as a Juvenile Offender and Hence Will Probably Get Out of Prison by Age 21 - http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/maryland/crime/bs-md-ci-ponsi-stabbing-verdict-20161128-story.html

Yeah, we need criminal justice reform alright.......Starting with shit like this!

On the Fact that Ann Coulter Recently Referred to the University of Pennsylvania as a "Lesser Ivy"

She is full of shit on this one in that Penn has the #7 ranked law school (only slightly behind Yale, Harvard, and Columbia), the #3 ranked medical school for research (ahead of both Yale and Columbia), the #11 ranked medical school for primary-care (well ahead of Yale, Columbia, AND Harvard), and the #4 ranked business school (ahead of Columbia and Yale and only slightly behind Harvard). And didn't Ms. Coulter go to Cornell, an "ivy" that ranks below Penn in virtually every category? Please, somebody ask her if she thinks that Cornell is a lesser ivy......................................................................................................P.S. My source for the rankings is the U.S. News and World Report, 2016.  

On the New York Times's "Move Along, Nothing to See Here" Approach to Covering Pizzagate and the Podesta Emails (Where it's Almost Certain that These Pervs Were Communicating in Pedophilia Codes; the Fact that Nobody "Does" a Pizza, "Does" a Hotdog, Plays Dominoes on Cheese, etc.)

And if these clowns were Republicans they'd be covering it the exact same way, correct?......Yeah, right (the fact that they did a bogus cover story about McCain having an affair, AN AFFAIR!!)

On Cyd Charisse's Sickeningly Hot Turn in "The Bandwagon"

Let's just put it this way. Mr. Astaire didn't stand a chance in this one and neither would any of us. Oh yeah!

On the Fact that Sexual Harassment Has Now Been Watered-Down to the Point Where What Was Once Considered Innocuous Banter Is Now Seen as Intolerable Cruelty (Courtesy of Anti-Intellectual Dolts, Ramrods, and Miscreants)

As the wussification of America proceeds.......unabated. 

On the Fact that Tony Podesta Has a Work of Art Which Closely Resembles One of Jeffrey Dahmer's Frozen Victims

Well, being that the creep goes to "spirit cookings" and emails in pedophilia codes, can't say that I'm hugely surprised.......Are you?

On "Rape Cultures"

Yes, they exist and they're called prisons, Muslim societies, and the black inner-city (everywhere where the leftists AREN'T looking, in other words). Please, check 'em out some time.......AND LEARN SOMETHING, FOR CHRIST. 

On the Fact that Whenever You Have Troughs (In the Case of Global Warming, Billions and Billions of Dollars of Grant Money), You Will Also Have Pigs (In this Instance, "Scientists" Who Are Quite Willing to Sell Their Souls to Keep this Gravy-Train Afloat)

And that is precisely why we need to keep science and the government separated, to avoid this.

On the Concept of Thousands of Fighting-Age Syrian Men Running Around the Country (a Lot of Whom Undoubtedly Think that Women Are Second-Class Humans, that Free-Speech Mustn't Be Tolerated, and that Gays Should Be Severely Punished) Unsupervised and with Very Inadequate Vetting

What could go conceivably wrong (besides everything, that is)?

On the Legacy Media's Recent Preoccupation with "Fake News"

So the same people who had told us that there were WMD in Iraq, that there was a genocide going on in Yugoslavia, that the Iranians were attempting to enrich weapons-grade uranium (as if going from 3% to 90% was as easy as flipping a switch), that the Syrians were using poison gas on their own citizens just for the sheer hell of it, etc. are now accusing other folks of spreading disinformation. Well I'll be damned. 

On the Fact that Abraham Lincoln Was a Lifelong Member of the Yankee Founded, American Colonization Society (and by Lifelong, I Mean, Right Up to His Last Dying Breath; the Smoking Gun Being the Documented Works of Historians, Philip Magness and Lerone Bennet)

Even by 19th Century Standards, Lincoln was a virulent white supremacist who literally wanted to gather up every freed slave and dump them into Africa (a cultural situation that they had absolutely nothing in common with after multiple centuries in America) and the fact that there are still folks from across the political spectrum (from neocons to progressives) who not only accept him but champion him is perplexing to say the least..........................................................................................................P.S. And no, it wasn't just this fact that led me to the above conclusion. I site also a) the plethora of racist sentiments that the man uttered over the years, b) the fact that his 1861 inaugural was essentially a "slavery forever" missive, and c) the fact that his Emancipation Proclamation didn't free a single slave and was penned primarily as a military strategy (its main goal of course being to incite a slave insurrection).......Seriously, if you want to remove somebody from the currency and use Harriet Tubman in that person's stead, look no further, people. Look no further.

On the Fact that Without Open Discourse, There Is No Scholarship, and to Have a Discourse There Has to Be at Least Two Points of View

So there isn't a truckload of scholarship going on in many colleges these days, in other words. How pathetic.

On Being Called Transphobic Simply for Not Believing that an Individual Can Magically Change His or Her Gender

I have zero problem with trans-people and support equal rights (I'll even call a male to female tranny, she, if it makes HER happy) but I will not concede that an individual who was born a male (i.e., a human who's only non-Y chromosomes ironically reside in his sperm cells) can suddenly become a female simply because "he" undergoes a series of surgical mutilations, dangerous hormonal therapies, mental gymnastics, etc.. Sorry but that's a bridge too far for me. 

On the Fact that a Significant Portion of the American Left Is Currently Praising Castro (Posthumously Now, Thank the Lord), a Tyrant and Mass Murderer, While Simultaneously Vilifying Trump

DO YOU NEED TO KNOW MORE? I don't.
