Put Your Coffee Cup Down And Swallow, Please

Just be ready - you will not see a funnier display of zero self-awareness today, this year, or perhaps ever. This is from a NY Times op-ed:

Diversity Makes You Brighter

...

Diversity improves the way people think. By disrupting conformity, racial and ethnic diversity prompts people to scrutinize facts, think more deeply and develop their own opinions. Our findings show that such diversity actually benefits everyone, minorities and majority alike.

OMG, LOL, and WTF. This explains why the NY Times newsroom is filled with reporters who are evangelical Christians, pro-lifers, gun owners, climate change skeptics, and white-bread New England conservatives. Oh, wait. It's not a diversity of ideas that promote broader thinking - its a diversity of skin tone! My bad.

To be fair, this article is not promoting workplace diversity. I actually have a second punchline - it is promoting Affirmative Action to bring diversity to our nation's campuses! That's right, our campuses, those bastions of free speech where competing ideas are bandied about without fear of consequences. As long as you are in the designated Campus Free Speech Zone at an allowed time and with the proper permit - otherwise some representative of diverse ethnicity, sexuality, religion, or whatever may take offense at your diverse ideas and you'll be be learning what 'hasta la vista' means.

I need some muscle here! I'm falling out of my chair from laughter.

Good Morning! FOX Business is covering the live protests in Chicaago of the BLack Lives Matter crowd marching in the streets demanding Rahm resign as Mayor.

Joe Trippi is the designated damage control guy for the Dem's and he says Rahm isn't going anywhere, this will all blow over, and none of this will have any negative consequences for Hillary because there is no on on the Repub side who is even capable of saying the words "Black Lives Matter."

[henry]

That does it. My coffee cup will be filled with a diversity of spirits from now on. I'll be smarter (or at least drunker), which reminds me of college.

[henry]

Daddy, city "workers" (aka SEIU) walked off the job to joint the protest.

Diversity makes you smarter when you hang around with the Asian kids.....was that racist?

Funny how Spike Lee's movie, Chiraq, is sinking without a trace as the violence in Chicago has the spotlight focused on it. Oh that some street smart women actually tried the premise.

Chicago is a national crime scene as is Baltimore.

[daddy]

From our lurking friend, apparently th Muslim immigrants violate a 1952 law. And it is a different C Christie than the large one.

Posted by: henry

Henry,

Is our lurking friend marching in the crowd with the "Rahm's gotta' go" crowd?"

The FOX Business TV shots look like where me and an old girlfriend, Melinda, drank beers during a JOM meet-up about 6 years ago.

[henry]

Marching? Not likely.
Securing popcorn supplies? Possible.
A beer joint by Wrigley? Sounds right. Some good ones there.

[lyle]

Chicago is a national crime scene as is Baltimore.

I reckon that nice Pelosi woman could amble on down to the south side and ask those gang fellas to turn in their gunz. What's that? Oh, she doesn't want those gunz. She wants yours and mine...

[daddy]

Wonder if the Chicago BLM crowd will disperse if Zeke Emanual dies in place of Rahm? Isn't it about time for Zeke to off himself?

I'd be happy of course to see both of them go, but Zeke might be a good start.

[Jack is Back! (On Alert!)]

Our campuses want diversity? Bring back ROTC for all Universities, colleges and other institutions of higher eductation that receive federal funds of any kind.

Solves a number of problems including providing employment opporutnities for our retiring or discharged NCO's and officers. It also, by itself, would increase the level of common sense, leadership and discipline at these joints. Students would feel safer even in their safe spaces.

Plus with a full armed ROTC detachment it would be a possible detterant to anyone who wants to shoot up the place.

[lyle]

I'd pony up the cash to see Zeke off himself on Pay Per View. Self-immolation seems appropriate given his evident lifelong aquaintance with Beezlebub.

[jimmyk]

Great post, TM, and thanks for the warning.

Off topic, your tax dollars are going to enable the government to perpetrate health/diet misinformation on the public.

--Put Your Coffee Cup Down And Swallow, Please--

I thought [hoped?] for a minute that was a memo-to-self by TM.

[daddy]

"16 Shots and a Cover-up! 16 Shots and a Cover-up!"

also ""No Justice, no Profit", no Justice, no Profit!"

Pretty decent chanting.

Here's the checklist of the usual drivel I'm expecting to hear from Rahm:

1) I take responsibility
2) Let the healing process begin
3) Black Lives Matter

So we go to the tape, and whatdoya know

Mayor Rahm: "I take responsibility for what happened because it happened on my watch. And we're going to fix it. I want you to understand that it's my responsibility with you. But we're also going to begin the healing process. The first step in that journey is my step. I'm sorry."

Did he leave anything out?

[Ignatz Ratzkiwatzki]

Lefties scandalized;

"Scalia: Affirmative Action Sends Blacks To Schools Too Advanced For Them"

The fact that Scalia, as anyone with two brain cells to rub together, also believes that the same misguided policies applied to whites, Jews or Asians would also send them to schools that were too advanced for them means nothing to the dumbass left.

[lyle]

Did he leave anything out?

Other than climate change, trashing the Constitution, hatin' on Rethuglicans? No.

[daddy]

cnns-ashleigh-banfield-there-have-been-jewish-terrorist-attacks-should-we-therefore-ask-no-jews-to-please-apply-for-a-visa/

Well there also been Terrorist attacks from TV Reporters:

!) A King Salmon weatherman and his British-born, stay-at-home wife, the first people to face a domestic terrorism case in Alaska, on Wednesday pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI about a jihadist hit list.

and this

2) Two Roanoke journalists killed on live television by angry former colleague

So I'm with Asleigh Banfield, only she's targeting the wrong terrorists. Lets ban TV reporters from entering the country.

[lyle]

Finally getting around to Wretchard's latest and I find he soiled his prose with a quote from the execrable E. Robinson:

“A cancer that has no immediate cure” was not the most soothing metaphor President Obama could have chosen, but it was the most honest. He has no idea how to prevent another terrorist attack like the one in San Bernardino — and neither does anyone else, including his Republican critics.

I know of more than just a few critics who have some ideas.

J. Golberg at NRO writes:

Monday, Emanuel said he “welcomes” a federal investigation of the killing — but what else could he have said?

Well, of course he "welcomes" it: with the stem to stern corruption in the DoJ combined with it being run by Holder's hand-picked toady, he knows a federal investigation would be a joke. Even the diminutive dancer can see that.

Same with Hilligula. The longer the "investigation" of her emails drag on, the greater the likelihood the sham process will--mirabile dictu!--result in the FBI saying, "we took considerable time in investigating whether the former SecState might have mishandled sensitive material and, while we disagree with some her protocols, she didn't break any laws." Mark. My. Words. Then LoLynch's grip on Comey's balls will relax and there will joy upon all the land.

Interesting take from Ace:

There is no way to stop Trump until 'respectable' politicians begin to understand why he's winning and begin destroying the Legacy Failure of leftist mediated political thought themselves.

People keep talking about "When he loses."

Listen to me: He is not going to lose.

... Trump is not going to "lose" -- passive voice. Someone will have to actually beat Trump, and no one's going to beat him by simply regurgitating the leftist-enforced Polite Company Conservative line.

tonto,

Just ordered 2 copies. Will come to Easthampton so you can sign them:) I am giving one to the school. Frederick will be chuffed. Stocking stuffer.

Jane,

There is still a selective service board. A bored board but a aboard that's aboard.

[Miss Marple 2]

Had to drive one more package over for postal pick-up. In the car Hannity had Jamie Dupree on talking about various and sundry things that went on on Capitol Hill today.

He seemed to think that Trump's numbers would start to fall from this controversy, and said that some tea party sympathizer senator disavowed Trump's statement. He said he talked to a lot of aides in the halls and they were disapproving.

I thought to myself, "But Jamie, did you talk to any regular people?"

[daddy]

Do men still have to sign up for the draft at age 18?

Jane,

On talk radio they run a PSA a couple times a day telling young men they have to sign up for Selective Service once they hit 18. I know the ad pretty much by heart. The closing lines are "it's fast, it's easy, and it's the Law."

Just for interest, my daughters tennis coach was a big black 6 foot 4 former cricket player from Jamaica. He's a excellent fellow and married a local gal. 2 years back, during slow times, he tried to get a job working on the Fedex Ramp tossing cargo. He was doing well in the process until he was screened and found not to have signed up for Selective Service. He was refused hiring due to that. At the time Sinclair was in his 30's I believe, and I think he told mom he wasn't even naturalized until after his 27th Birthday, the cut off for having to apply for Selective Service, but still he got shot down. Just mentioned that to show there apparently are repercussions.

[Jack is Back! (On Alert!)]

Momto2,

Any titty bars near Moody? That's where I would start looking. Mosques? Meh! They are in Satan's great house now and will take full advantage.

[Old Lurker]

"Any titty bars near Moody?"

Trick question, right?

[henry]

Chicago is boring. Milwaukee has mid day rolling shootouts (4 cars) on the main interstate through town. This calls for car control legislation.

[daddy]

Question. I am out of the house so I don't know if any other news channels were covering the Chicago protests. Are they?

I mention this because as I was driving downtown I caught the top of the hour Radio news and the protests were not mentioned, but instead there was a segment on Scalia's Affirmative Action comments, followed by a comment from Al Sharpton. Are all the other MSM channels in "shhh, let's protect Rahm Emanual" mode?

[Dave (in MA)]

Dumb question alert:

Do men still have to sign up for the draft at age 18?

(I'm aware there is no draft)

Yep.
Some of the most annoying ads on talk radio shows remind us of that fact with great frequency.

edit: Looks like daddy beat me, but I'm gonna hit Post anyway.

[Momto2]

JIB - I have NO idea - being a southern gentlewoman and all....I tend to agree they are probably just trying to avoid going back home.

The bigger issue this points to is our total inability to track, contain, or otherwise oversee certain "visitors" to our shores. Hopefully they are harmless but they could pretty much do anything they want - anywhere they want - especially if they had outside help and funding.

[daddy]

According to Henry's link you have to enroll in Selective Service by your 25th Birthday. I think the 27th birthday is what I recall from the old days, wherein you had to be under IIRC 27 and a half at time of Commissioning in order to be eligible for Naval Officer Candidate programs. I think that's the rule Biden's coke-snorting son was exempted from.

Does anyone else think that Jamie Dupree sounds rather prissy on the radio?

[Big Tent Johnson]

Trump appears to be greatly expanding his supporter base:

"Trump Leads By 25 Points Over Nearest Rival In New Zogby Poll"

"A new poll of Republican primary and caucus voters by Zogby Analytics shows developer Donald Trump widening his nationwide lead to 25 points over his nearest rival, neurologist Dr. Ben Carson. The new Zogby Poll of 271 likely GOP voters has a margin of sampling error of +/-6 points and has the following results:

• Donald Trump: 38%
• Ben Carson: 13%
• Marco Rubio: 12%
• Ted Cruz: 8%
• Jeb Bush: 7%
• Chris Christie: 4%
• Carly Fiorina: 3%
• Others/Not Sure: 16%

The entire poll was conducted after Trump’s controversial remarks about banning Muslims from entering the United States. His 38% is the highest percentage he has received yet in a Zogby Poll."

[daddy]

Lets place our bets on if Rahm goes.

My bet is Rahm stays in office. How about you guys?

If he was a Repub he'd already be dead, but from my radio listening I think the machinery is in place to try as best as possible to give him a pass. Stand by for a lotta' "look squirrel."

[lyle]

Twinkle Toes isn't going anywhere, daddy.

[Old Lurker]

One reason I gave up on Hannity was his incessant hyping of Jamie Dupree as the guy who knows everything in DC.

I never thought that was close to true, and therefore it was all a waste of my time.

[Old Lurker]

I thought Art's 4:31 from ACE was good.

[Jack is Back! (On Alert!)]

barbara,

DuPree is the quintensential capital hill groupie. He knows the process, the players and the ins and outs. Outside of that he is no more a pundit than me or you. Plus he brags about never voting since it would somehow color his neutrality in reporting which is what you get. Plain white bread.

[Dave (in MA)]

I was wondering if anyone's read the novel "Terror Red" by Obama voter Col. Dave Hunt who often appears on Fox News and the Howie Carr show. Any good?

[daddy]

What were those Afghan pilots doing here?

The usual...becoming radicalized.

[Dave (in MA)]

The Ballerina knows too much, so I don't see him going anywhere for at least 407 days.

[Art in Newport]

Thanks, OL. And Mr Johnson's 4:59 seems to underline the point Ace was making.

[henry]

The question is whether Rahm is a machine add on like Blago, or part of it like Blago's unindicted Alderman father in law.

Right now he has the #blm/OFA/SEIU contingent in the streets against him. He po'd the Teachers union by closing a bunch of schools, caused a close election. Now the police are mad because he threw their chief and an officer under the bus... with more tapes coming out on more shootings as we go.

If Rahm is a capo, this blows over. If he is merely an associate he is toast.

[James D.]

OL @ 5:06

I did, too. It's what some of us here have been saying for a while.

[GMax]

A Zogby poll? Surely you jest. That Democrat operative with a polling organization was fully and totally discredited and disgraced years ago. No one who knows his history would give a poll done by him three seconds of attention...

[Jack is Back! (On Alert!)]

But as usual he stumbles into being right in his own clumsy rhetorical way.

[Rick Ballard]

AiN,

Santorum didn't acknowledge defeat until early April in 2012. Gingrich didn't quit until early May. The 2012 primaries started a month earlier so it could be May before we see the field fairly well cleared.

Of course, the end of the SEC primaries are going to reveal the tiny tweety bird ass tied to that alligator mouth, so the end may come sooner than April.

[henry]

Our lurking friend notes that La Raza and the World Workers Party are also joining the #blm/OFA/SEIU, teachers, etc. in the dump Rahm event.

[daddy]

Explaining the magazine’s choice, Time’s Nancy Gibbs cited the German chancellor’s handling of the crisises facing the European continent this year.

How about "initiating" the crisis facing the European continent this year and for generations into the future.

[Captain Hate]

Those poll numbers are less likely to be correct than a Rodham intervention group.

[Old Lurker]

I still wish someone would ask Trey Gowdy about that email yesterday.

[Jack is Back! (On Alert!)]

CH,

You being the BBall guy, how far can Golden State go before they lose? Is 33 straight the record? My buddy went to the Brooklyn game the other night and said the Warriors are a complete team and that watching Curry during warm ups was very instructional as to how good he really is.

[Captain Hate]

It's unpossible to have all those deadbeat groups in Shitcargo lined up against Twinkle Toes without having Ferret paw prints and skid marks all over them, no?

[Captain Hate]

JiB, Golden State went to one of the jokes of the league to elite status when Jerry West came on board. Curry was already very good but when they fired fatassed Mark Jackson and replaced him with Steve Kerr everything was in place because Kerr, as a long range bomber himself, designed a number of plays to get the Splash Brothers going. Sure they can beat the record but it will take some luck to do so. But they are a very solid and deep club. I read somewhere that if they keep winning they will play to tie the record in Cleveland on Christmas. They are somewhat helped by the West not being quite the murderers row that they've been in the past. But Curry has upped his game from last season when he was already MVP. But it's a long season.

Btw Luke Walton has done a great job while Kerr recovers from back surgery.

[daddy]

"Rush just said it and Chuck Todd reported that GOPe will run Romney invalidating the primary or let Trump go 3rd party before they’ll let him be the nominee. Its getting serious if GOPe is floating going nuclear. TRUMP 2016"

Ughh.

Stand by for a giddy Ann Colter to appear all over the networks the next few days.

[Jack is Back! (On Alert!)]

daddy,

BS, of course. Trump doesn't win Iowa but that as usual is immaterial. He does battle Cruz for NH, loses and then loses again in SC. He cuts his deal with Cruz. Ball game over.

Heh! That's my bet.

[Jojo]

daddy, Anne Coulter opened one of Trump's events. She is all in Trump.

[Threadkiller]

I don't know about "destroyed" but it is a damn fine question:

Rush Limbaugh just threw down the gauntlet to Carly Fiorina, who criticized Trump for his short-term Muslim ban proposal saying that if he is the nominee that Hillary would wipe the floor with him.

Rush wants to know that if it’s that easy to beat Trump, why hasn’t she wiped the floor with him yet? BOOM!

Video:
http://m.therightscoop.com/rush-limbaugh-destroys-carly-fiorinas-comments-against-trump/

I haven't found Carly's answer yet.

[jimmyk]

Anne was all hot for Romney too. She's jumped the shark, though on factual matters she can still be a useful source.

[daddy on iPad]

Ok. Getting set for the talk radio top of the hour national news. Will see who gets top billing. Al sharp ton vs Scalia, or Mayor Rahman.

[Jojo]

Her current book is about immigration and that's why she supports Trump. I don't think she'll ever run back to Romney.

[Captain Hate]

I know this is a dumb question but the RNC can't be so clueless as thinking that Romney can be forced upon the voters and not have things go horribly bad for them, can they?

[Barbara]

Re: Jamie Dupree -

Thanks OL and JIB.

He always sounds so superior and always seems to be in a hurry like he has better things to do (either that or is girdle is too tight). His opinions don't seem to have much substance or anything to back them up.

[Jojo]

I've been reading that Trump is now en route to visit Bibi, who is a personal friend of his, and visit the Dome of the Rock.

[jimmyk]

I think if the RNC did that it could be the end of the Republican party. I don't think they are that stupid.

[daddy on iPad]

Wow. ABC Radio news mentions Rahm as story number 4. Only 2 sentences and it followed some story about the Congress voting to somehow limit State choices in School testing. Perfunctory at best.

Jojo, I thought from some show I saw her on a few weeks back she was saying her fondest dream was a second coming of Romney at the Convention to save the day.

[Jojo]

When Kristol says "Trump will not be the candidate" does he know something about a backroom scheme.

[Threadkiller]

Just watched Adam Schiff(D), intelligence committee, explain to Blitzer that Mrs. Terrorist kinda jumped in late with her pledge to ISIS, and there is nothing they yet know that would prove she had any allegiance to that group. "There are many groups to chose from."

Sounds like a pitch for Covered California. On the radio I heard someone say "hey, they were radicalized before ISIS ever existed, so, to be fair, we can't say for sure who motivated them.

WTF?

My guess is Allah motivates anyone in the Covered Heads of California plan.

Shiffhead can't say it, though.

[Jojo]

daddy,

Anne Coulter home page:

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!

December 9, 2015
For my best birthday gift this week, Donald Trump called for blocking Muslim immigration to the United States. If he throws in all immigration, it will be my merriest Christmas ever.

[Barbara]

JIB,

I think that Trump cut a deal with Cruz well before the debates began. I have no idea how all of this will come down, but Cruz never seems to criticize Trump in the same way that others have.

[Miss Marple]

Kasich on Fox now. He is such a repulsive person.

[Sue]

Trump's rhetoric is radicalizing Muslims. I know that because every talking head has said so. Good thing they aren't worried about Obama's rhetoric radicalizing me, a card carrying member of the NRA and proud TEA party supporter. Lucky for them rhetoric, like global warming, only affects Muslims.

[new lurker]

Ditto, MM.

[Captain Hate]

Coulter is second only to BOR when it comes to self promotion. Her books are much better researched than those of the 8 pm-er on the Rove News Channel; why, I've even heard that she interviews people with skin in the game.

"If Islamic terrorism has nothing to do with Islam, why would insulting Islam invite more terror?" -Jonah Goldberg

[Momto2]

Barbara - I'm in Ga. and every talk show seems to have him on down here. He gets on my last nerve! It doesn't matter what the topic is - he tries to sound like the "voice or reason" or present "both sides".

"So Jamie, what is going on in D.C. now that 25 muslim refugees beheaded Congressmen on the steps of the Capitol?"

"Well, to be fair, these same Congressmen had spoken out about letting in the refugees and some here believe that led to the outrage....Stay tuned for the rest of the day as I plan to interview 3 or 4 of the refugees to hear their side of the story!"

[daddy]

Back Home now:

Charles Payne on FOX Business runs a clip of Comey saying that the morning of the murders the killers texted 109 messages to somebody probably over in the Middle East, yet that he is unable to read any of what was texted due to not being able to un-incrypt the messages.

[peter]

I know someone else on some other thread here mentioned how annoying the use of the word "radicalized" is, I just wanted to add my $.02. We almost never heard the word until the last week, now it must have been focus group tested and it is everywhere. I find it very interesting what a contrasting position the MSM and the progs take toward gays vs Islam. For sexual orientation, the prog take is that it is an immutable characteristic, so if your five year old girl thinks she's a boy, you had better go out and buy her an STP device (look it up) or you are not being a good parent. And the left pooh-poohs the idea that any gay men seek to recruit young males into their subculture. Your sexual orientation is so immutable that we had to turn the millennial old definition of marriage upside down because some people had no choice but to "marry" the same sex. Yet with Islamic killers, all it takes is a wave of a magic twitter account, or some videos, or a trip to the middle east and voila, radicalization takes place. I guess I just don't know science.

[Skoot]

In Baltimore, officer Porter took the stand in his defense. White officer, Novak, was given immunity. Prosecution case was pretty weak. He's probably going to walk. CVS hardest hit.
