Cispigmented Heteronormative Microagressive Ignatz

Sorry for the length of this but this comment by Wretchard after his own column linked on the prior thread was too good to not C&P;

That's why transformative politics is about creating sources of authority and the repetition of sacred memes. The doctors of the PC church are celebrities. Celebrity is authority. By the same token, anything repeated often enough, like a mantra or chant, becomes true. All the machinery of religion is deployed in the service of politics.

The great genius of Marxism was to realize that the key to transforming politics was to replace Western civilization's religion. And when they replaced it they declared religion abolished.

This accounts for the strange exchange of places. Where the Left formerly adopted the pose of free thinkers, they now don the mantle of piety. Medea Benjamin isn't a rebel; she's proud to be one of those incense lighting, Novena reciting devotees worshipping at the altar of Barack Obama.

The Islamists understand this too. They don't appeal to reason but to emotion; to the desire for transcendence, the need to belong, the impulse to touch the sky, even at the risk of their lives. They underestand even if Medea doesn't, that you can't make a man die for welfare but he'll risk his life most fearfully for the faintest of hopes.

That is why in some strange way, despite all the protestations to the contrary, we have never lived in a greater Age of Faith. All around you are the acolytes of Gaia, of the priestess Kim Kardashian, or the great god Marx. And rising above all, there's the Prophet and behind him further yet, the shadow of Allah.

What place is there in this world for the man called by God to converse and not summoned as a slave?

"And after the earthquake a fire; but the Lord was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.

And it was so, when Elijah heard it, that he wrapped his face in his mantle, and went out, and stood in the entering in of the cave. And, behold, there came a voice unto him, and said, What doest thou here, Elijah?"

Crossposting this transcription rom the dead thread on the previous page:

A Lawyer on Lou's show reiterates my take on the Thumb drive, re: Petraeus's crimes. He finishes with some good questions.

Lou: Judge, a thumb drive; her Private Attorney in possession of it, with classified information on it. What is going on here?

Judge Alex Ferrer: Yeah, that's where we're getting the claims of disparate treatment, you know we saw Petraeus, who had classified documents in his house. A search warrant was served on his home. The documents were found. He was criminally charged. Now nobody is saying she should be criminally charged, we don't know if a crime was committed, but we do know enough to have the FBI looking into this and possibly seeking a warrant. We know that she had documents on this server and has now given them to her Lawyer to keep in a safe, which is not a skiff, the proper means for keeping classified information, in his office, so the documents that have already been identified as Classified by the Inspector General, are in the possession of her Lawyer, on a thumb drive like all of us carry, in a safe, which who knows how many people have a combination for. Now we know that's a violation of the Law, and of the US Code, and of the Executive Order issued by president Obama. But where is the FBI going to get these documents? Why aren't they turning a warrant like they did to Petraeus? Why is she getting a pass?

narciso

clearly red queen is off limits, whereas Petraeus is not 'of the body' just like the body bomb leak inquiry found a way to excuse Brennan, who had to have been the main source,

daddy

Perry Mason would blow a hole a mile wide thru Hillary's Thumb-Drive E-mail Gate and her apologists.

Astonishing to me to hear the White House tell us that comparing this and Petraeus is comparing Apples to Oranges.

If we can't effectively make this argument, then it's time to move to Cuba.

Miss Marple

daddy,

I can't move to Cuba, but I am seriously considering looking for a small home in a small town.

Indianapolis has always been a quiet city, but the LBGT people have gotten very nasty, and I am afraid that it is going to turn more left after the mayoral election, when Mayor Ballard leaves.

I am wondering if his leaving is because he sees something in the future that those of us out of the loop do not.

It's impossible to read the comments at any Cecil the dead lion story and not despair for the future of the human race.

The actively and proudly mentally and morally handicapped commenters drown any attempt at rationality.
They are a tribe of cosseted, infantile, irredeemably urbanized, pantywaisted moral pygmies who pay stout men to butcher their hogs and steers in private, hidden abattoirs and laughingly swallow raw tuna gaffed from the sea with a giant hook in their living side and flopped on a deck to asphyxiate and drizzle butter down their chins from the lobster they just had a chef boil alive for them.

Or even worse they are sanctimonious, dull-witted, bovine vegan fanatics who graze off some vast organic farm that displaces thousands of wild animals and slaughters any that dare cross its borders to snack on the vegan's chow and they would happily and proudly deny the involuntary vegans of Africa the little bit of protein they get when a hunter provides the village with meat from his kills.

They're mortified of their own deaths and cry when a baby seal gets clubbed but embrace the death of an inconvenient baby human and would produce a feminized, sanitized society that can neither sustain nor defend itself but will feel quite superior circling the drain the true barbarians are digging under their dainty feet.

Miss Marple,

When I spent a day driving thru Bloomington, it looked small enough and inexpensive enough to be a nice sort of spot to get a small house and kick your shoes off and sip mojita's in the yard with the puppy dog.---plus you'd be near to Nate. True, it is possibly Socialist or Democratic, but since DWS can't explain the difference, I guess we don't need to know either.

what's the proper brew for such an occasion?

Why on Earth would the head of a Union think it is incumbent on her to "Stand with" PP.

The Nomenklatura passes on review.

Pure Marxist Leninism (with a dash of Maoism).

It is just sickening. Can you imagine the head of the Unions doing this even 20 years ago?

40 Years ago their wives would have divorced them for this sort of thing.

Here is a perfect moment for the GOP to articulate just what is going with the Left.

The Aug.3 debate at the NH Institute of Politics will be shown by Hearst Broadcasting. I looked at the list of stations and some JOMers have access to those stations.Boston,Greensboro,West Palm Beach,Orlando and Sacramento/Stockton.

Hmmm... Naughty bin?

Daddy, Rebel IPA here.

narciso, mass quantities. Spotted Cow is good reverse irony.

Miss Marple

daddy, Bloomington is expensive, because of so many students wanting to rent off-campus apartments. Plus living amongst university libs I would probably have to make bail, eventually.

Gnawbone and Beanblossom are east of Bloomington and are small, blue-collar redneck towns. More to my style and cheaper by far.

Rick Ballard

"Here is another perfect moment for the GOP to articulate just what is going with the Left."

Too scary. It's much safer to keep silent or whine about the ascent of Huey P. Kardashian.

Oh,iHeart Radio is a sponsor. There is sure to be some news made at the Monday night debate.Fox is heavily promoting their Aug.6 debate. They will certainly get a larger audience,because of Trump.But I think the Monday night debate will be more interesting and a better forum for the candidates,because Trump won't be there.

oops, hit post too soon. The beer is brewed in Stratford, CT. Presumably the two roads are the Merritt Parkway and the Connecticut Turnpike.

daddy at 7:56, we need more Perry Masons. Can you imagine how he would have eviscerated Mashed Potato mouth in the Senate hearings. Too bad the good trial lawyers are all out making money from ambulance chasing.

Good to see Ed Schultz get the boot.

Checking out the Armed Forces Network Radio Schedule, it looks like his hour slot had been replaced a while ago by somebody named Stephanie Miller.

Overall AFN balances out it's single hour of Rush Limbaugh per weekday, with 10 hours a day of NPR programming, the one hour of Stephanie Miller, and an hour per day of the Doug Stephan Show. So only a 12 to 1, Liberal to Conservative ratio for the troops overseas.

I have made it Just got an email from the Republican Party saying if I send $25 dollars to them by midnight I would get a GOLD Republican card to crry in my wallet. I guess I'll have to pass, I sent $25 to Carly earlier and that has shot by budget. Plus I have no intention of sending any money to a party that keeps Boehner in charge of the House.

Miss Marple

pagar,

I am in the exact same position. My donation to Carly was to encourage her. I don't have any money left.

If she is the nominee, I might send her another $25; otherwise, my donations are done.

SBW iPadmini

Pagar, they send a gold card to my mother in the hope she will contribute to the RNC. Ain't gonna happen.

He added the department would investigate why Deniz was in the area

Park County sheriff's spokesman Lance Mathess said his agency has been instructed by the FBI and Bureau of Indian Affairs not to release any information on Deniz.

A Federal Judge has jumped on the bandwagon and joined the banning of the Anti-PP Film group from releasing their remaining 9 videos.

My question: Who will be the first to receive a Federal warrant, ordering them to turn over their material to authorities?

B) The remaining 9 videos of this Anti=PP group?

daddy

That makes sense to me Miss M.

Jane, any input from James O'Keefe on the cruise?

Shannon Bream now tells us that the murderer was an 18 year old immigrant from Mexico.

Trace Gallagher: Jesus Deniz Mendoza, 18, (The Murderer) Deniz is from Mexico, and is not a US Citizen, but because he has been in Montana for most of his life the Obama Administration deems him a Legal Permanent Resident. Deniz was recently arrested for Felony Burglary, but at the time Immigrations and Custom's Enforcement said their hands were tied, quoting here"This individual does not have any criminal convictions, and, as a permanent resident, is not currently removable. Thus, an ICE detainer can not be placed on this individual at this time."
If he's convicted of murder, ICE says he could then be removed from the country after he's served his sentence, although Deniz could face the death penalty.

----------------------------

Shannon Bream then says : ...I'm told by a Senior Source on Capitol Hill, this guy came through illegally, he was here illegally, he was given a special sort of Juvenile VISA, Immigration VISA< in 2013, and that's why he was here...

------------------------------

We probably didn't want to deport him because we didn't want to tear families apart.
------------------------------

Trace Gallagher: The children of the murder victims were also in Court today, and just gave us a state,meant that reads in part "...the aftermath of the whole situation has left 7 children with no parents. Jesus Deniz has taken away, with no remorse or thoughtfulness of life.

And just to reiterate:

A source in the Big Corn County Attorney's Office told the Daily Mail Online they believed Deniz was an American citizen of Hispanic decent.

He added the department would investigate why Deniz was in the area

Park County sheriff's spokesman Lance Mathess said his agency has been instructed by the FBI and Bureau of Indian Affairs not to release any information on Deniz.

Now we know why they were instructed to do that.

Interestingly, having just browsed thru a number of stories on this murder and murderer, none of them prior to this FOX TV story, have identified this guy as an illegal immigrant, or an illegal from Mexico with some sort of special VISA.

Well, the dailycaller article is typical lib nonsense. It assumed that the "pro life movement" is actually an like integrated disciplined left wing movement, that is, a political front managed by The Party. It is not. The people at CMP are not "coordinating things" with other parts of a "movement". CMP is acting independently and it is not "pressing for legalization; it is exposing the grim true to the American people.

They also err in posting a dilemma between "pragmatism and principle"; this too mistakes the pro life movement. They are trying to stop an gross immorality, not "pragmatically" hedge their "legislative bet", and this will not stop until the immorality stops.

The left cannot understand this.

But what is sad if this prior censorship. Imagine if the tables where turned. A left-wing organization would be not be censored like this. We really seeing the rule of law completely break down in this country.

The Congress should act. politicians and candidates speak out. Pressure should be applied. Where are the churches.

Narciso, I like your Bible Hub page (Ephesians 6:12). Events this past year or so, plus the people in TM's video, as well as so many of our elected leaders have discouraged me greatly -- not to mention the sewer our culture has become.

Yippee Judge Emmet Sullivan:

Judge Orders Hillary Clinton to Answer for ‘Home-Brew’ Server

U.S. District Court Judge Emmet Sullivan issued an order late Friday afternoon ordering former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and two of her most intimate State Department aides, Huma Abedin and Cheryl Mills, to account for, under penalty of perjury, their use of Clinton’s ‘home-brew’ server kept at her Chappaqua, New York home during Clinton’s four-year tenure as secretary, as well as any official documents in their possession.

Please Judge Sullivan, please follow through with consequences for the creeps who consistently thumb their noses at you're orders. Please.

Extraneus

How does the writer know she kept the server at her home in Chappaqua? Does anyone know how this "fact" was established?

Extraneus

Here's another one:

Clinton deleted an additional 30,000 e-mails from her private server that she deemed personal, before turning over the remaining ones to the State Department for release - an act that Krauthammer said could have prevented even more classified information from being released.

Why is this 30,000 number stated as a fact?
