I’m hearing the MSM yell out that Barack
Obama has a mandate after winning in 2012.
Funny the GOP managed to keep the house by a wide margin and as George
Will it noted just about every one of those congressmen won by a larger margin
than Obama.
That’s 230+
mandates the media doesn’t want you to see against.
Another thing the media doesn’t want to see
is Senator Kelly Ayotte. They’ve been hitting the Susan Rice Benghazi
business pretty hard throwing brickbats at Senator John McCain and Senator
Lindsey Graham over it. The left has
played the “two old white guys” meme to the hit, forgetting that Senator Kelly
Ayotte (R-NH) was at that press conference and made
points like this:
Let’s also not forget that, I
think you all appreciate you don’t end up on every single major Sunday show
without affirmatively putting yourself out there of wanting to carry forward a
message on behalf of the administration.
Senator Kelly Ayotte is not only a smart accomplished woman, but she is
a tall statuesque and beautiful woman.
Normally a person with that description would never be left out of the
media stories but she doesn’t fit the meme which must be protected…
…and
she is also the highest ranking CONSERVATIVE republican north of NYC so she definitely must not
get publicity.

I
haven’t talked much about the Brett Kimberlin case lately but the legal gears continues
to move and they appear to be rolling right over him and
his pals
John Hoge’s latest news in the Virginia case of Aaron Walker v. Brett Kimberlin, et al.,
is that Walker’s attorney Dan Backer has filed motions for default
judgments against Kimberlin’s co-defendants Ron Bryanert and Neal Rauhauser. Backer is requesting that the court in
Prince William County schedule the hearing on this motion for Dec. 4, the same
date as a hearing on Backer’s motion for procedural sanctions against
Kimberlin.
Furthermore, Backer has filed notice that Brett
Kimberlin has breached the court’s order on the sealed discovery for the fifth time.
It is perhaps about time to point out the hazards of
amateurism illustrated here. As every student of Kimberlin’s criminal career
knows, the Speedway Bomber became somewhat renowned as a “jailhouse
lawyer” during his 17 years in federal prison, filing more than 100 actions on
his own behalf. But what was his success rate? I’m not sure anyone has ever bothered
to check.
These cases like most court cases roll
slowly forward but they continue to roll and I suspect while Kimberlin & Co
were feeling confident once the President was re-elected the wheels of justice
keep turning and continued daylight seems to be hazardous to their continued
success.
All the boring legal motions btw are
findable at the Hogewash
site if you’re into that kind of dry legal stuff.
I’ve had Dan
Backer, the lawyer currently trouncing the Kimberlin Crew, on the show. I should have him back before the end of the
year if he’s free.
Some sports, people don’t say much about
Tom Brady anymore it’s as if he’s passé but not only is his team 7-3 and
leading its division but last weekend his offense scored 59 points against the
Colts.
Now people might say Indy is overachieving
but if you score 59 points in an NFL game against a team that’s 6-3 , either
that team is over rated or you’ve still got it.
Brady’s still
got it
You know what really gets me about the stupid
story of Lindsey Stone who decided it was a good idea to give the finger
next to the sign saying “Silence and Respect” at Arlington National Cemetery. The sheer amounts of stupid acts done in
sequence by this woman
1.
Doing the act
2.
Doing it in front of a camera
3.
Posting it on Facebook
And the crowning idiocy in this collection
of foolishness, doing all of this on her employers time and an employer’s
event, that’s smart!
Now I might understand if a person my age
or older still did not appreciate the power of the internet, but this young lady was born into the internet
age, there is no excuse for not understanding how the internet works. That’s just dumb.
You’ll note
that I don’t say a word about the nature of this act, that’s simply because
there any person willing to do this either doesn’t know or care that how wrong
it is, so why waste my breath explaining it to her?
Speaking of things foolishly done on the
net Anderson Cooper is being attacked by the friendly folks of Hamas and their
supporters for displaying pictures of Hamas dragging the bodies of summarily
executed supposed “collaborators” on the
backs of motorcycles through the streets of Gaza.
Mind you they are not upset about the
executions, the dragging of the bodies through the streets or even them being
on the net, Pam
Geller for example has a huge collection of them on the net, but because it
was Anderson Cooper of CNN who
tweeted it out.
Cooper tweeting it gives legitimacy to the
simple fact that when we are dealing with Hamas and their supports we are
dealing with murderous barbarian bastards and people who support murderous
barbarian bastards. If I say it, it
doesn’t have the same impact.
Even worse optics for the Pro-Hamas crowd
are the people publicly supporting summary execution and declaring those killed
“had it coming”.
That’s the
totalitarian left for you, they love civil rights and due process and respect
as long as you are with them, but if you are not on their side, having your
body dragged from the back of the motorcycle is too good for you.
I give Cooper
some credit here, I figure the reason why so much of the press kowtows to these
murderous bastards is…because they are murderous bastards and they on occasion
have to work within their range.
Speaking of Gaza anybody notice that this
wasn’t considered a crisis while Hamas was firing rockets into Israel but it
became one once Israel started shooting back.
Sort of like the Yon Kippur war, it wasn’t until Israel was about to
destroy the Egyptian 3rd Army that the world decided a cease fire
was needed?
All of this is bad for Egypt btw. As long as Hamas was firing and Israel was
not shooting back, they looked great, but if Israel keeps pounding Hamas and
Egypt sits back and lets them they lose face in the Arab world and the Muslim
Brotherhood looks like the feckless cowards they are.
Still it’s better than going to war with
Israel and being utterly destroyed…again.
And if Israel takes Gaza one more time, I’m betting they keep it.
Israel needs to realize that no matter what
they do the left and the Arab world will call them murderous and genocidal. Facts don’t matter. That being the case they might as well
protect themselves as best they can.
Sort of like the GOP. We could nominate Jon Huntsman on a
pro-abortion platform pro-gay marriage platform and he would immediately find
himself tagged a racist sexist homophobic misogynistic pig.
That’s the
left, it’s what they do.
Mediation has not saved the Twinkie, and
liquidation seems to be the next step.
I’m sure the Hostess brands and hopefully
the Drakes brands that I like much better will be picked up by somebody but it
just goes to show what small amounts of union members can do to 18,500 jobs
when they decided to take their ball and go home.
This BTW is a great chance for the right,
jobs and layoffs at companies far away have no meaning, but taking away
people’s Twinkies, THAT they understand.
Incidentally did you note how the Unions
blamed MITT ROMNEY for the Twinkie business?
Can you imagine what they’d be blaming them for if he won?

Finally I had the pleasure of interviewing some excellent
female writers and artists at Anne’s Book stop in Worcester where they were
talking Doctor Who and two books Chicks
Unravel Time: Women Journey Through Every Season of Doctor Who and Chicks Dig Time Lords A
Celebration of Doctor Who by the Women Who Love It with contributors K
Tempest Bradford, and Jennifer Pelland.
The interview was in two parts (thanks to
dying batteries)
Cover artist Katy Shuttleworth sat for part
2.
The most interesting thing about the
interviews was the totally opposite experiences we have had as Doctor Who fans
in America. In England everybody has known
Doctor Who for three generations it’s part of the culture but here it not. My experience has always been with a mostly
male fan base. I really knew only one
woman who was into Dr. Who but their experience was totally opposite, it was
all “chicks” who are the fans they know and were shocked to see so many guys at
some events.
Still can’t wait for the next season and
the 50th anniversary.
If you aren’t watching the show or
listening to the Big Finish audios you ought to be.
Happy Thanksgiving to all and to all a good
week.
