“Black Holes Are Where God Divided By Zero”

TODAY’S POST IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY THE PHYSICS DEPARTMENT (WITH SPECIAL THANKS TO THE ENGLISH EDPARTMENT).

richard-feynman-art-3

Rush wondered aloud yesterday about the Iran nuclear deal - ironically enough - approved by our esteemed body politic on the day before 9/11:

This is just... It's inexplicable.  The whole thing is inexplicable.  There is so much that doesn't make any sense anymore.  So much in our politics that's happening every day doesn't make sense to people anymore.  And no matter how artful you are at explaining it, it still doesn't make sense.  It doesn't make sense because it appears that we've lost patriots.  It appears our government is not filled with patriots anymore.  That's what's inexplicable. 

how-far-down-the-rabbit-hole-do-you-want-to-go.american-apparel-unisex-fitted-tee.white.w760h760b3

Oh, you can come up with, "Well, the donors are insisting on this," or, "They're a bunch of elites and they have their own reasons for doing this," or, "Rush, they don't care anymore about average, ordinary Americans, anymore.  That's what happens with elites! The higher they climb the ladder in politics, by definition, the farther away they get from the people they represent.  They lose touch."  Okay.  Fine.  It still doesn't explain this.  I mean, you can explain the Trump phenomenon.  You can explain a lot. 

truth-quotes-einstein4Trump, explained. That pretty much explains President creasy-pants too.

But you can't make sense of the United States president and the United States Senate assisting the world's leading terrorist regime securing nuclear weapons.  You can't explain that! I couldn't explain it to anybody if I tried, not in a way that makes any sense.  I mean, you can tell them what happened.  You can give them all the possibilities.  But, after that, people are still going to say, "Well, why? Why would anyone want the Iranians to have a nuke?"

Richard Feynman- Richard Feynman

Well, you could say a low-information voter asks the question. "Well, Obama thinks that we don't have the right to tell anybody they can or can't have nukes!  It's not our job.  Just because we're a big country and a large economy, doesn't give us the right to tell people what they can and can't do."  "Oh! Oh! Well, I might agree with that." You do?  You don't think that there's good and evil in the world and that we are on the good side, and that evil must be stopped, evil must be opposed?  Even if you don't think that, do you think evil must be aided?  Do you think evil must be assisted?

I leave you with this final thought, sponsored by the English department; Alexander Pope to be specific:

9.11.01 - Never Forget. Never Surrender.

 

twin towers footprint

“NO DAY SHALL ERASE YOU FROM THE MEMORY OF TIME” – Virgil

On this, the 14th anniversary of 9/11, we reflect on how well we’re doing in the fight against the Islamic jihad that has been issued upon us. Bottom line, not so good:

We just inked a nuclear deal with the number one terrorist state in the world. And the Ayatollah appears as enthusiastic as our side,according to his Twitter account:

Screenshot Studio capture #024

Got that? “Firstly YOU WILL NOT SEE NEXT 25 YEARS.” And, yeah, he’s talking about you Big Guy. Putz.

Screenshot Studio capture #022

Our global enemies are lining up together against us. (Butt don’t worry, Countess Pelosi tells us “This is historic. This is grand. This is visionary. This is about peace.” Putz.

Dear Leader has ordered that we take in more terrorists from the Mid-East. Putz.

Terrorist snipers are popping up along highways across America: Arizona, Michigan, next?

battle creek sniperComing soon to a highway near you

Our Intel people are lying to us, in order to “get the narrative right” and make us think our fight with ISIS is going swell:

“More than 50 intelligence analysts working out of the U.S. military's Central Command have formally complained that their reports on ISIS and al Qaeda’s branch in Syria were being inappropriately altered by senior officials.”

150909-obama-jayveeYeah, yeah, yeah, I know…jayvee, all the way.

Butt don’t worry, it’s not as if we’re teaching Islamic doctrine in public schools now or anything…oh wait…we are: “There is no god but Allah.” And he is the god of death and destruction.

9-11

So stay vigilant America, because your government certainly isn’t.

Hillary’s Hair-Raising Reset: Har De Har Har!

Knowing that her Russian Reset button would come in handy again at some point,Hillary hung onto it.

reset_button090324

And sure enough – when she got caught up in her own wake and was about to go down for the third time she whipped that sucker out and hit it, this time with feeling. And voila! We have yet another re-launch; The Last Hillary Clinton Presidential Tour: this time with humor and heart. Which is tough when your idea of humor consists of scripted quips like “The hair is real, the color isn’t” - and you’re talking about your own, not The Donald’s.

hilz trump hairAnyone can have a bad hair day

Butt when your emotional intelligence, as Dorothy Parker might have put it  “runs the gamut of emotions from A to B,”  you might want to steer clear of the “heart” issue altogether.

hillary-clinton madHillary, exhibiting her emotional rage range

So, we’re left with humor. And I presume this, from Hilz ABC interview, is Hillary’s idea of humor:

“But I am looking forward, finally, to testifying before Congress. Something I've been asking for nearly a year.”

The nuance of this humor is the irony: Hilz had been fighting her appearance before Congress for “nearly a year” before her lawyers finally agreed to one, and only one, appearance. (I’ll Testify If I Feel Like It.) Ha Ha! You’re killing it Hill! Keep up the good humor.

Hillary To Star in new CSI (Crime Scene Immunity) Episode

crime scene (2)

What does it mean if the Senate offers your “server guy” immunity? It’s hard to say for sure, butt it’s usually not good sign for the suspect:

UH-OH There's more trouble ahead for Hillary Clinton, the State Department staffer who freelanced as the tech guy who set up and managed her home server (Bryan Pagliano) told investigators that they shouldn't bother with a subpoena because he would just take the fifth. But now Senate investigators are dangling immunity in front of him. Sens. Chuck Grassley and Ron Johnson, the chairmen of two key committees investigating the situation, said they have authority to extend immunity compelling Mr. Pagliano to talk.

It could mean that Hilz will end up being sorry for a lot more than just “causing confusion” with her emails. As it becomes increasingly clear that her emails DID contain top secret information, she’s the only one who continues` to be confused. After all, her private email system, she says, was approved. It’s approval came from Bryan Pagliano, Janice Jacobs, or the Secretary of State herself.

150317-hillary-confused

Hillary’s reaction upon hearing this news was to burst into spontaneous crocodile tears. Since that didn’t work, expect allegations later this week regarding the Republicans’ micro and macro aggressions against her because she is a woman who wears pants.

There’s a thin, rainbow colored line between truth and consequences.

Hillary may have wandered over the line and saying “sorry” may no longer be adequate.

We Were The Enemy We Were Waiting For

He’s mad as hell, and he’s not gonna’ take it anymore:

joey biden-tuggin' at his plugs

Sounding very much like a candidate for president, today Vice President Joe Biden spoke at an AFL-CIO Labor Day event in Pittsburgh, Pa. "I'm mad, I'm angry," Biden thundered, attacking the U.S. economy as "devastating for workers."  - Doug Ross: Joe Biden Blasts the Obama-Biden Economy

Ripping on everything from the tax code (“Let me tell you something, man, the tax code's not fair. The wealthy aren't paying their fair share.”) to the destruction of the middle class (Biden said Tuesday that the middle class has been “buried” for the last four years.) Joey really let Big Guy and himself have it on his self-performance review.

I wonder if Joey is aware of the stats his administration have run up on the 3 letter word: JOBS, JOBS, JOBS. Not only have jobs and wages stagnated, butt the few jobs that are being created are going disproportionately to those illegal aliens who just come here for love:

Since December 2007, according to the Household Survey, only 790,000 native born American jobs have been added. Contrast that with the 2.1 million foreign-born Americans who have found a job over the same time period... Zero Hedge

So, Joey, if you’re looking for the source of your angst, I think I can point you in the right direction:

pogo biden

That’s right Joey, we have found the enemy.

pogo_

Butt what the heck, let’s sign up for “Fore More Years!” anyway. It’s been fun.

Working: It’s SO Overrated.

Well, I see yesterday’s post created controversies over everything from true conservative principles to a proper potato salad. It was a lot of fun!

And just for the record, my potato salad was made to the specifications of my Irish Grandma’s decades old recipe: potatoes, chopped hard cooked eggs, sweet onion, celery, radish and (secret ingredient) cubed seeded cucumber in a dressing of mayo/sour cream. Perhaps different from your family’s favorite, butt as pbird said: “we sure like it.”

I surmise from the comments that there are as many versions of potato salad out there as there are grandmas. And almost as many as there are varieties of conservatives.

GRANDMA_JEANS_POTATO_SALADoil and vinegar pot saladpot sal

That’s what makes this such a great country.

However, now that it’s Labor Day, and another summer is in the can, I’ll be switching over to my German Grandma’s sweet and sour style potato salad, better known as German style. It makes an appearance every year around this time to round out  MOTUS’ Oktoberfest groaning board. Because everything’s better with bacon.

CI-0105
German Potato Salad

And now, the thought of the day: Why are we still celebrating Labor Day, when nobody seems to be laboring anymore?

A record 94,031,000 Americans were not in the American labor force last month -- 261,000 more than July -- and the labor force participation rate stayed stuck at 62.6 percent, a 38-year low, for a third straight month in August. CNS News

Let’s see, we added 173,000 jobs last month butt the number of people in the workforce dropped by 624,000, placing the number of us not working at over 94 million, a nearly 40 year low. How much labor can that take?

unemployment-labor-force-participation-rateOnly in Obama’s America: unemployment drops, butt – unexpectedly - so does labor participation

That’s odd indeed; you mean there’s a correlation between the labor participation rate and the unemployment rate? Who knew?

Don’t let that harsh your mellow, it’s still an official holiday so get out there and make the potato salad of choice, while you still have a choice.

Look! Up in the sky! It’s a bird it’s a drone! Its Stealth Girl!

Just a quick observation today, as I’m in charge of the potato salad for today’s MOTUS family picnic.

Don’t get me wrong, I like Carly Fiorina. A lot! Butt my inner SD** has been beeping lately, mostly because I don’t trust the GOPe. I think they’ve been secretly backing her, thinking she’d be the perfect running mate for Jeb. You know - give the low-energy white guy a jolt of enthusiasm while simultaneously squashing all that “war on women” talk.

And after the now infamous General Soleimani episode with Hugh Hewitt (GOPe selected conservative moderator for the next R-debate), I’m convinced I was right. Are we to believe that he just happened to have Carly lined up later that day so he could ask her the same question (which she aced)? Or was that a set up in order to make Trump look not just ignorant butt petty by comparison? Inquiring minds and all.

PicMonkey-Collage-Hewitt-Trumphewitt fiorinaIs This The Smirk of Collusion?

It could just be my paranoia leaking through, butt you know what they say. Either way, I say good for Carly: playing the boyz to her own advantage. Show ‘em how it’s done Carly.

Now everybody, get out there and labor. Or whatever you feel like doing this holiday weekend. I’ve got to cook some potatoes.

**SD: super-secret code for “S**t Detector. It’s a technical term.
