Happy Birthday Party Obama: I Hope It Doesn’t Rain

Apparently I was one of the people dropped from the Obama 60th birthday invite list after they were forced to pretend to “scale back” to “only family and close friends” amid COVID-19 concerns – or more accurately, due to criticism regarding their lack of concern about COVID-19. As you may recall from my very first dispatch about my assignment as the Mirror Of The United States, artifice and illusion has always been the most the Obamas have to offer.

I certainly understand the need to scale back previously planned and paid for social gatherings in these dangerous times, but so far the only people uninvited to the birthday bash seem to be TOTUS and me.

TOTUS AND MOTUS

And while I hate to cry “racism!” in an already crowded arena I will note that we were the only techno-gizmo guests on the original guest list and now we’re the only ones excluded. I’m beginning to feel a bit like a token and to be honest I can’t help but feel a little used. But as I’m not one to hold a grudge I hope the ex-POTUS and FLOTUS enjoy their really big party on the Vineyard.

And I would like to commend them on the foresight to have a COVID-19 hospital erected onsite in preparation for a potential outbreak at the Super-Spreader event.

It looks like everything’s under control here. Maybe they can work on the southern border next.

We’re All Going To Die

Let me see if I’ve got this right:

If you don’t take the vax against the virus, eventually it won’t work anymore:

Fauci: If you don't get your shots, eventually the shots might not work

But if you do use antibiotics against bacteria, eventually antibiotics won’t work either. Sounds like we’re all going to die.

antibiotic resistance1And as always, don’t forget to wash your hands!

This medicine stuff is far too complicated for a layman to understand.

What I do understand is that viruses (and bacteria) mutate. That’s what they do, what they’ve always done, to survive. And they’re not going to stop doing that just because you stop using antibiotics or because you get a “vaccination.” Mutation never sleeps. Exhibit A:

flu seasonIt’s called “seasonal” flu for a reason: because it mutates every season and returns as a new variant.

Given all the excellent advice we’ve gotten thus far from the government/medical/media complex, why would I believe anything they tell me at this point?  Oh sure, it’s easier than doing your own research and drawing your own conclusions but might I suggest that is no longer a good enough reason; I mean, given all the crap we’ve been fed for decades that has turned out not to be true.

Wow, how’s that going to help advance the government/media complex’s agenda? No further coverage expected.

Throwback Thursday: Plandemic Edition

The very first modern influenza pandemic was known as the Russian flu or “La Grippe.”

plague of 18921889-1992 and still going strong

The disease likely emerged somewhere in the Russian Empire in 1889 and quickly spread around the world in successive waves. It took only four months to hit every part of the globe, with the United States seeing its peak in January 1890. More than a million people (of the 1.5 billion on earth) were killed worldwide in that first wave.

Apparently it lasted into 1892 and spawned some great conspiracy theories regarding its origin including electric lights.

On January 31, 1890, the European edition of the New York Herald ran an item suggesting that the electric light was somehow responsible for a global influenza outbreak. After all, “the disease has raged chiefly in towns where the electric light is in common use,” the article noted, and went on to note that the disease “has everywhere attacked telegraph employees.”

The medical world hadn’t yet discovered viruses so light bulbs seemed as likely as anything.

I think they’d given up on the Edison theory of pandemic by the time the 1918 Spanish Flu rolled around, but had spawned the face mask theory of containment for recently discovered viruses so small nobody could see them.

Which, over a hundred years later, remains the predominant theory of virus control.

But here’s an interesting note from the field of microbial biotechnology, which is well documented at Legal Insurrection: Clinical evidence that the pandemic from 1889 to 1892, commonly called the Russian flu, might have been an earlier coronavirus pandemic – which has now evolved from a serious pathogen into just another common cold virus. The article observes that the Russian Flu had several cycles of infection worldwide beginning in late 1889 with recurrences in March to June 1891, November 1891 to June 1892, winter of 1893–1894, and early 1895, and concludes with the question as to whether we really wish to continue this drama for the next 6 years.

I know some do, but for the sane among us it’s time we rethink the COVID-response strategy along the lines of Governor DeSantis:  ‘I Don’t Wanna Hear a Blip About COVID From You’ Until You Secure the Border.

Fences and Face Masks

“A thing may be too sad to be believed or too wicked to be believed or too good to be believed; but it cannot be too absurd to be believed in this planet of frogs and elephants, of crocodiles and cuttle-fish.” -  G.K. Chesterton

This surely does not speak well of our country’s current situation: (H/T Glenn Reynolds who asks the logical question “how long before Governor Cuomo commits suicide?”)

CAPITOLSUICIDE-532x600“We’ve come to a situation where any politically connected suicide is presumed to be a murder. The government has lost the benefit of the doubt.”

Well, that happens when your country is ruled by a crime syndicate. Not only has the government lost the benefit of the doubt, they’ve lost the benefit of our trust. It has become a dangerous place.

You know, I’ve never bought into the “Andrew Breitbart was murdered” conspiracy, but I’m prepared to reconsider my position at this point. It’s not as if it’s an original thought.

chesterton

All that aside, there is something very rotten indeed, not just in the Capital police force but in the state of Washington D.C. itself. It should be rooted out but our elected officials are more interested with ensuring their own fortunes and futures, ensuring that our borders are fully open and welcoming to illegals and mandating that the legal (formerly free) citizens get vaccines and wear face masks. Do not comply. It is our right.

 

“Do not remove a fence until you know why it was put up in the first place.” -  G.K. Chesterton

Slippery Slope: Illustrated Version

twin gender towers

We sure went from “love, is love, regardless of your gender” to  “gender doesn’t exist” pretty quickly. For those who think that the “slippery slope” argument is always fallacious, this could serve as a useful example of when it is not.

It seems like only yesterday that we were still living in First-Term-Obama’s colonial-imperialist-patriarchal America. Then suddenly, but expectedly, The Won “evolved” completely and came out in support of same-sex marriage, chastising anyone who hadn’t manage to “circle back” quite as quickly as he had.

Now look at us: just 8 years later and we have fully transformed!

gender removed“Designating sex on birth certificates as male or female, and making that information available on the public portion, perpetuates a view that sex designation is permanent and fails to recognize the medical spectrum of gender identity. This type of categorization system also risks stifling an individual’s self-expression and self-identification and contributes to marginalization and minoritization,” said AMA Board Chair-Elect Sandra Adamson Fryhofer, M.D.

It’s probably just me but it seems like the political ideologist of the left who like to lecture us on “science” are a bit recalcitrant in recognizing some pretty basic medical science regarding sex.

genderless extension

But since this week is the peak of summer I’m trying hard to remain upbeat and positive. So looking on the bright side I’m hoping this means that those stupid gender-reveal parties will now be deemed politically incorrect and drummed out of existence. They seem, like every other kind of party these days, to be getting a bit out of hand.

“Eat Your Own Damn Peas”

I’m sure it will be a lovely party, how could it not? Beachfront private estate venue, the finest food and drink that money can buy, live musical entertainment, beautiful people flocking in from everywhere. Ah yes, it’s Barack Hussein Obama’s 60th birthday on Wednesday and he’s throwing a bash at his own lovely Martha’s Vineyard estate next weekend.

obama-marthasvineyard-houseThe sprawling 6,892-square-foot house sits on 29.3 secluded acres fronting the Edgartown Great Pond between Slough Cove and Turkeyland Cove, with views of a barrier beach and the ocean. 

And don’t you dare question how he could afford such an expensive estate (as well as his swell Washington D.C. Kalorama digs) as an ex-public servant, you racist dawg, you. But for the record, here’s how:

Barack Obama doesn't want any gifts for his 60th birthday, just a COVID-safe party and donations to the Obama Foundation's philanthropic projects.

Just like all other professional government grifters: his “friends” fund his and his family’s lavish lifestyle in exchange for…oh, we needn’t get into all that now, do we? Just know that Barry’s planning a big party and you’re not invited.

Former President Barack Obama is planning a big bash for his 60th birthday in Martha's Vineyard, sources tell The Hill.

The former president, who has spent recent weeks at his home on the posh island, is expected to be joined by dozens of friends at his oceanside abode, set on nearly 30 acres.

“It's going to be big,” said one source.

It's unclear who will be in attendance but one source said many A-listers and friends of the Obamas, including Oprah Winfrey and George Clooney, scored invites.

Guests are being asked to have a COVID-19 test before attending the soiree at the seven-bedroom, nearly 7,000-foot mansion the Obamas purchased for $11.75 million in 2019. – The Hill

How do the elite out-hypocrite thee? Let me count the ways:

    1. Global Warming! The elite guests will be flying in on private jets from all over the country/world to celebrate with Barry on his ocean-front estate which is immune from coastal flooding caused by melting icecaps because important people live here.
    2. Life styles of the rich, famous and “important” people are different. While Barry meant it when he said “I mean, I do think at a certain point you've made enough money,” (BHO, 4-28-10) he meant “you” not him, and the other very important people he hangs with.
    3. C0VID Delta Variant Alert! Super spreader event! Don’t worry though, there is special dispensation for wealthy elitists flying in from all over the globe. Besides, invitees have been advised that all guests will be required to undergo COVID testing and that the event will be overseen by a medical professional, who will ensure that all CDC, state, and local pandemic protocols are followed. So we’re all good!

So happy birthday to the Lightbringer. Do enjoy yourself. The rest of us little peons will just shut up and eat our peas, like you told us to, while you and your pea-brained stand-in continue your very important task of fundamentally transforming Amerika.

Meanwhile, Down By the River

Eighteen months into the pandemic and it’s come to this:

Sumatran tiger

Two Sumatran tigers at an Indonesian zoo were recovering from COVID-19 after they tested positive in mid-July, the Jakarta government said in a statement on Sunday, adding that authorities were trying to find out how they were infected.

The tigers had undergone around 10 to 12 days of treatment and were gradually showing signs of recovery, Jakarta's Head of the Parks and City Forest Office, Suzi Marsitawati, said…authorities are doing tracking and tracing to figure out how the tigers were infected.

She added that none of the caretakers and workers had tested positive with coronavirus around the time the animals were infected.

So, in order to keep the numbers up, and the pandemic alive, we are now reporting 2nd and 3rd generation variants (MORE INFECTIOUS! less deadly) along with zoo animal cases. 

Perhaps it’s time to stop taking a knee for the virus and get back to work.

That’s just my two cents. Although I don’t actually care if Congress wishes to maintain their face mask charade – all the best banditos wear one.

For the rest of us, might I suggest an afternoon down where the river rejoins the sea?
