Thank You Obama!

Everyone seems so perplexed about the Looney Leftist Dem candidates turning on their messiah during the debates. In addition to being stunned, party honchos are very unhappy that all their candidates with the exception of Obama’s faithful sidekick piled on, trashing Barack Obama - their once and future king! – and his legacy.

It really ought not surprise anyone. After all, the real legacy of Obama is…TRUMP!

And for that we thank him

Trump will be the one thing history will remember Obama gave to America: the pink pussy hats, the media meltdowns, a severed Trump head, the RUSSIAN interference with the election that happened on his watch, the impeachment posturing, assaults on college campuses, rampant internet censorship, the constant grievance protests, and the normalization of left-wing political violence. This is Obama's legacy. This is his transformed America. The usual, polite, delicate gamesmanship of GOP Incorporated would not be enough to combat what Obama and the growing brazen left-wing did to the country and behold, we have Donald J. Trump as the president of the United States.

So thank you, Obama: the king is dead.

Long live the king!

Sorry, Barry: tough lesson to learn but in the lyrical phrasing of Sara Bareilles, “who died and made you the king of anything?”

You sound so innocent
All full of good intent
You swear you know best

But you expect me to
Jump up on board with you
And ride off into your delusional sunset…

And who cares if you disagree?
You are not me
Who made you king of anything?
So you dare tell me who to be
Who died and made you king of anything?

Let me hold your crown, babe

Size Doesn’t Matter. Unless It’s Small.

I know it’s FLOTUS Friday but I checked all the newsfeeds and the only coverage the MSM deemed newsworthy about our First Lady was this story. It’s about Ilhan Omar been a U.S. citizen for 6 years longer than Melania Trump. This provided the opportunity to rerun the “Donald Trump made racist comments about the Squad!” outrage story again, thus checking off a lot of boxes in the “newsworthy” category.

I guess Ilhan’s seniority in the citizen department qualifies her to make anti-American and anti-Semitic comments with impunity.

This week, following a stopover in Italy for a little fine dining, Ilhan is visiting “Mother Africa” – her words, not mine, compliments of the hateful American taxpayer:

Right. Ask Hillary how that turned out for her.

“Monsters, Dancing Clowns, Girls, Trampolines…Pure and Absolute Madness”

Only the rest of the Dem candidates could make Joe Biden look like the only adult in the room. And that’s saying something.

It’s been said the biggest winner of the first two Dem debates was PDJT. Clearly last night’s biggest loser was Barack Obama. And if you don’t believe me, read your Twitters. 

As Rush and I have feared for some time, the clown show may just result in everyone’s worst clown nightmare: candidate Michelle Obama to the rescue.

Don’t take our word for it, no less luminary than Michael Moore agrees:

“Who is the street fighter that can crush Trump? And frankly, I think there's a person that could do this, if the election were held today, there is one person that would crush Trump . And she hasn't announced yet. And her last name rhymes with Obama. In fact, it is Obama. Michelle Obama.– Michael Moore

Well, you can’t say they didn’t bring it on themselves:

So yep, it looks like the Dems are getting the old band back together. Expect all the Juggalos to follow: 20th Annual Gathering of the Juggalos Underway.

Founded in Detroit in 1989, Insane Clown Posse performs a style of hardcore hip hop known as horrorcore and is known for its elaborate live performances…The group has established a dedicated following called Juggalos numbering in the “tens of thousands”. Juggalos often paint their faces to look like clowns, and some sport tattoos of “hatchetman”…

The Insane Clown Posse is known for their elaborate concert performances: …We bring with us monsters, dancing clowns, girls, trampolines, and pure and absolute madness to the stage.”

That pretty well sums up the Dem debates so far.

The Democrats Heartache To Come

Detroit’s Fox Theater was built for movies, not vaudeville, but was used for the latter last night when ten of the 20-ish Democratic candidates assembled to out-socialist each other.

I didn’t watch the debate but from what I’ve heard of the recap it sounds like one of them spent her time making a passionate case for reparations, citing the 40 acres and a mule motif.

The rest of the Dem hopefuls seem to have concluded that Obamacare is the worst atrocity foisted on the American people since fluoride - and NOW they want to fix it.  Humph, we warned them back in 2009 that passing the bill to find out what was in it wasn’t the best of plans, but did they listen? No, and now they would have us believe that “Medicare for all” will fix everything. Idiots.

I think you’ll agree, last night’s venue is far more interesting than the actual show so let’s explore the truly magnificent Fox Theater.

Lobby

Originally opened in 1928 as a flagship movie palace in the Fox Theatres chain, it was the largest theater in the city with 5,000 seats.

Balcony seating

During World War II, like many theaters in the area, the Fox operated 24 hours a day to accommodate defense plant workers on afternoon and evening shifts. And while the theatre operated continually until it was closed in the 1980s it had fallen into terrible disrepair and by the 70s was exclusively showing Blaxploitation and martial arts films. The Ilitch family (Little Caesar’s) bought and faithfully restored the Fox and it reopened  in 1988 as a performing arts center.

The official architectural style is said to be Art Deco with a blend of Burmese, Indian, Persian, Chinese, and Hindu motifs. I call it Byzantine Baroque.

And the Dems want to know what we mean when we say “Make America Great Again” – they’re standing in the middle of it and they still don’t get it. Like the Ilitches, PDJT is restoring America the beautiful while the Democrats just want to play more Blaxploitation films.

Thinking: It Complicates Your Life

Image result for calvin and hobbes no free will

In his latest article on Woke Racism, Victor Davis Hanson explains how the “new racism” works, using Rep. Pressley as an example:

Take Pressley’s recent formulation of the new racism at a recent Netroots Nation conference:

“If you’re not prepared to come to that table and represent that voice, don’t come, because we don’t need any more brown faces that don’t want to be a brown voice. We don’t need black faces that don’t want to be a black voice. We don’t need Muslims that don’t want to be a Muslim voice. We don’t need queers that don’t want to be a queer voice. If you’re worried about being marginalized and stereotyped, please don’t even show up because we need you to represent that voice.”

In sum, Pressley just outlined the classic anti-Enlightenment mindset: we are all permanent captives of our superficial race, religion, and sexual orientation. We must at all times think, act, and speak in such tribal fashion—and do so monolithically and collectively, in adopting the party line as set down by such elites as those like Pressley herself

Because being a new “democratic” socialist means never having to exercise your own free will. Somebody else will do that for you.

Some of the stalwarts of the old Democratic movement have of late been caught up in the strictures of the new religion, and they don’t like it a bit. Take Maureen Dowd, for example. She was subjected to the fanaticism of the new purists last week when members of her own media cabal turned on her, saying she - Maureen Dowd! – was an elitist:

After I interviewed Nancy Pelosi a few weeks ago, The HuffPost huffed that we were Dreaded Elites because we were eating chocolates and — horror of horrors — the speaker had on some good pumps.

Then this week, lefty Twitter erected a digital guillotine because I had a book party for my friend Carl Hulse, The Times’s authority on Capitol Hill for decades, attended by family, journalists, Hill denizens and a smattering of lawmakers, including Pelosi, Chuck Schumer and Susan Collins.

I, the daughter of a D.C. cop, and Carl, the son of an Illinois plumber, were hilariously painted as decadent aristocrats reveling like Marie Antoinette when we should have been knitting like Madame Defarge.

Yo, proletariat: If the Democratic Party is going to be against chocolate, high heels, parties and fun, you’ve lost me. And I’ve got some bad news for you about 2020.

The progressives are the modern Puritans. The Massachusetts Bay Colony is alive and well on the Potomac and Twitter.

Why, I believe I just noted the same thing a few weeks ago:

Let me posit this hypothesis, liberalism is the new secular Puritanism. Instead of believing in a just and almighty God they believe in government…The Puritan ideal of living a life of pious, consecrated actions translates for the new Puritans to insisting that YOU live a pious life, consecrated to THEIR principles. Because you were born too stupid to determine what’s best for you.

Maureen just learned the first rule of sanctimony: it sucks when it bites you. Back to Maureen’s whine:

They eviscerate their natural allies for not being pure enough while placing all their hopes in a color-inside-the-lines lifelong Republican prosecutor appointed by Ronald Reagan.

The politics of purism makes people stupid. And nasty.

Amen sister, amen! Maybe if Maureen had learned more about history as a young girl she actually would have been on our side.

It’s a Dog Eat Dog World

I love referring to our President as VSGPDJT – Very (Special) Stable Genius, President Donald J. Trump. Because it’s a great shorthand way of acknowledging his special abilities. No, he’s not a superhero but he is the first powered person capable of hijacking the Left’s narrative and re-setting it to his own. He did it with the border, he did it with “The Squad,” and he just did it with Elijah Cummings and his rat infested district.

Case after Twitter case President Trump has forced the Left to embrace the unembraceable. And he’s not done yet. Currently in his sites: ANTIFA.

It didn’t take long for someone to take the bait. Tae Phoenix, self described as

“unpaid protester • performing artist • queer, neurodivergent, impolite, arrogant latina jew • anti-fascist class traitor” 

stepped forward to use Newsweek’s platform to express her admiration and gratitude for ANTIFA thugs, trying to turn them into fuzzy little fluff balls while vilifying these actual fuzzy little fluff balls:

These kids, most of whom were clearly overheating behind the black bandanas impractically tied across their faces, seemed enigmatic and slightly silly to me; but nothing about their posture or behavior struck me as remotely menacing. I've met golden retrievers who scared me more.

I certainly see zir point, as Goldens are well known as a menacing breed.

Well known for their snapping jaws of death:

While you might think ANTIFA is a terrorist organization, let’s not lose sight of who presents the real threat around here.

So please be on the look out for Golden Retrievers trying to Make America Great Again. They are dangerous and cannot be trusted. And they might eat your lunch.

The Art of The Deal: Let’s Make the UK Great Again

The Boris and The Donald have far more in common than the funkiest hair in the room.

 World Leader Finalists “Funkiest Hair” Category

They both left a woman in the dust on their way to becoming world leaders,

and they’ve both staked a position in favor of sovereignty that involves enforcing borders. In fact the UK’s new Prime Minister just warned the EU to drop the “Irish Backstop”and negotiate a new deal or face a “No-Deal Brexit” on Halloween. The “Irish Backstop” by the way is a demand that Ireland maintain an open border on the north.

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson cautioned the European Union on Saturday that the “anti-democratic” Irish backstop must be ditched if they were to strike a Brexit divorce deal.

Johnson, since taking office on Wednesday, has repeatedly said that if the EU continues to refuse to renegotiate the Withdrawal Agreement agreed by his predecessor Theresa May, then he will take Britain out on Oct. 31 without a deal.

It certainly sounds as if Boris read the copy of the Donald’s Art of the Deal which he received from our VSGPDJT when the two met last week to discuss Brexit.

European leaders are prepared to talk with Britain’s new leader over Brexit but have so far insisted they will not reopen the Withdrawal Agreement.

“My friends, I do not want a no-deal Brexit, that is not where we’re aiming, but we have to face the fact that at the moment we’re being told, as we have been told for the last three years ‘rien ne va plus’ – ‘the deal is fixed’ – and can’t be changed. I doubt that,” he said.

So, “ta” and “cheers” to  The Boris and The Donald.
