Well, I’ve enjoyed Jimmy Breslin’s novels (most of them). But he’s been fading into ever weirder and weirder loony left moonbattery as time has gone on, and his columns reflect his loony left moonbat disconnect from reality. See his “retirement” column (read it and ROFL) filed and dated Tuesday calling the election a landslide… for Jean Fraud sKerry.

What a maroon.

Sad to see talent go to waste that way. But then, he was always a better fiction writer than political observer/columnist. Oh, wait. Loony left moonbat columnist=fiction writer. I really have to keep that striaght…

Check the Mudville Gazette, a blog from a guy with his boots on the ground in Iraq. If you get your Iraq War “news” from the Mass Media Podpeoples’ Army, you’re getting news from the enemy’s perspcetive, with the enemy’s propoganda twist. Get it from a source who’s really there and involved.

booboisie \boob-wah-ZEE\, noun:
A class of people regarded as stupid or foolish.

H.L. Mencken is credited (if that’s the word 🙂 with coining the word “booboisie” (after the popularity of the time of sneeringly referring to the middle class as “bourgoisie” in homage to Marx’s slur against the class). He often used it when poking holes in psedudo intellectuals’ pretentions.

Now, the pseudo intellectuals in the Mass Media Pospeoples’ Army (see: The Day the Enlightenment Went Out are predictably using the word to refer to the idiots (to botrrow from TehRAYzah) who voted for Bush.

Watch this phenomenon. It’s akin to the projection used in political campaigns when disingenuous candidates cast their opponents as being afflicted with their own worst weaknesses.

When their tank is empty and they’re sitting by the side of the road, they sneer at the guy who stops to offer them a lift to a gas station and wax snarky about how low on gas their benefactor is…

Bobby Jindall, from Louisiana, “narrowly” edged out his opponent with a 78% margin of victory [heh] to become Congressman-elect for the 1st Congressional District of Louisiana. He’s the first Indian-American (his folks are immigrants from India) to be elected to Congress.

And he’s a Republican.

Take that and stick it, tiny-umbrella Dems.

hey! I n a couple of years, he’ll be old enough to run for president, and with his qualifications (and if his performance in the House matches up with his past record), I’d look forward to a 2008 race with him on the ticket.

George W. Bush was re-elected after having run on a coherent, plainly stated platform, consistent with his past performance and rhetoric. had sKerry won election, we would be faced with a presidency administered by someone whose platform was, in the most charitable light, vague and inconsistent with his past performance and rhetoric in all regards except for it’s inconsistency and sub-text of blaming America first.

And that is the true American political divide that reflects a cultural sickness that may yet be the death of our society: the divide between those to whom only the real meat matters and those to whom nothing about the purported steak matters except the sizzle. Subtance versus spin. Reality versus myth.

Now, that’s a divide that cannot be healthy if a substantial portion of the population (48% or so?) is dominated by image as opposed to the real thing.

William Kristol’s piece today in The Weekly Standard will set some loony left moonbat teeth on edge (loony left moonbat’s have teeth? Doesn’t seem so from election results…). An excerpt:

On November 2, 2004, George W. Bush won more American votes than any other presidential candidate in history–8 million more than he won in 2000, as a matter of fact. He was the first presidential candidate since 1988 to win more than 50 percent of the popular vote. He was the first incumbent since 1964 to win reelection while simultaneously expanding his party’s representation in both houses of Congress. He had coattails, in other words; Republicans were elected to no fewer than six Senate seats that had previously been occupied by Democrats, for example, and in all six of those states, Bush ran well ahead of the rest of his party’s ticket.

Go. Read. Print out a copy and leave it for your loony left moonbat coworkers to read. [heh. heh] One more small weapon in ONE battle to save civilization from (among a mass of foes) Islamic jihad, the Mass Media Podpeople’s Army, the Loony Left Moonbat Brigade and the Army of Academic Asses (with minor apologies to the other AAA), so well documented here and here.

I’ve been threatening an essay on The War to Save Western Civilization for some time, now.

Relax. This isn’t it. In fact, I’m probablu going to make it much shorter by calling it simply The War to Save Civilization, since Western Civilization’s the only thing approaching civilization left. Barely.

But this lil screed will be just enough to enfuriate just about everyone. I’ll try to make it as short as possible:

Three things that are unecessary, and even probably detrimental in the War to Save Civilization:

1.) An Amendment to our Constitution defining marriage as between man and woman. Wrong answer to the problem. Right answer: sack some judges. Or, faling sacking them, simply ignore them when they speak outside their proper roles. Seriously. If governors and legislators would simply tell judges to go take a flying leap when they make loony, improper “rulings” about things that are not any of their beeswax, then slap them upside the head with impeachment proceedings, this horse would be far too dead to beat.
2.) A “Prayer” Amendment. Come on. The thought police are going to prevent school prayer? I don’t think so. And should some loony moonbat seek to prevent audible prayer because of some misinterpretation and misapplication of a loony moonbat Supreme Court ruling, see first number 1 above. Then sue the bastards for infringing on YOUR First Amendment rights of freedom of religion and free speech. Repeat.
3.) A “Pledge” Amendment. See #1 above. Screw them if they want to restrict free speech, especially free political speech, such as the Pledge of Allegiance. Now, here’s where I manage to tick off everyone who isn’t ticked off already. Also, screw anyone who assumes (and reflects by their behavior) that someone who will not say the Pledge or speaks against it is unpatriotic. I don’t repeat it, beacuse some points it includes, particularly the “one nation under God” are patent lies, and because I’m leery of giving anything beyond what scripture says we owe civil government (taxes, respect, obedience to laws, prayer and moral support—nowhere suggesting allegiance, which belongs to God… ). If this is a representative republic along democratic lines, then the various civil governments owe allegiance to me (and you), not the other way around. Our duties lie elsewhere. Long screed there that I’ll cut short now.

Well, have I managed to offend enough folks, yet. No? Well, don’t worry; it’s not over yet. I’ll pour more oil on the fire another time. But as for these three duds in the arsenal of weapons against civilization’s foes, set them in the garden with the gnomes. They are good only for collecting bird droppings.

Michelle, over at A Small Victory got a lil “wake up call” this a.m. Seems some cretin IM’ed a death threat to her daughter… Not good. She’s handling it well, though, after venting a lil.

On another subject, she’s closed her limerick competition on sKerry’s defeat. Darn it. I didn’t even see the thing til it was over! [sigh] So many good blogs out there; so little time. Read the entries here and submit your selections for winner to her via email.

My own entry (had I seen the contest before it closed) might have been something along these lines:

As Kerry has mournfully sung,
“There’re not enough votes in the young,
The creepy and crumby,
Or hungry for money,
To carry me over; I’m hung.”

Or something like that…

Get on over to Michelle’s site and give her a word of encouragement, OK?

Un. Be. Lievable. The “quality” of loony left moonbattery (the Left’s belfries are full of moonbats, jam-packed, overflowing… ) exceeds imagination…

At this link:

“1. I think someone is trying to magically influence the Election by subliminal message.

2. I think those of us who know how should try to block any magical tampering we can, from all sides. It’s not an ethical approach and, if the Law recognized magic, it would be illegal under the same statutes that prevent other campaigning within 150 feet of voting place. There are volunteer election workers keeping people from braking that law, as citizens who can percieve those other influences, should we stand by and do nothing?”

and

“Ok, I can understand the restlessness I’ve been feeling since yesterday. There’s a lot riding on this election, and passions are running high on both sides, so naturally eceryone and their naked brother who has an ounce of Power and no clue about Shielding is leaking energy like a hair dryer in a bathtub. So it’s Shields Up for me, but I’m still getting enough bleedover to make me jittery and a little manic if I don’t concentrate. That’s all to be expected.

What wasn’t expected was that once I filtered out all that background noise, I started hearing a calm, resonable, and powerful head-voice saying things like “Kerry doesn’t have the experience we need in these troubled times.” and “Give Bush a chance to make it better.”

Anyone who knows me KNOWS these are not my thoughts!

And besides, I voted last week. No, there’s no way in Hades these are my thoughts.

…The [deleted] Republicans have got Magical help pumping out a clear, unified, focused broadcast, and you can be sure, every sensitive is picking it up. These are the people most likely to vote Kerry, and I’d like to think they are resolute enough not to be swayed by telepathic subliminal advertising, but it’s such a rarely-done thing, and so few people are properly trained these days, that I fear it will be more effective. Just watch and see who says “I was going to vote for Kerry, but for some reason I changed my mind at the last minute.”

Who would be doing this for them? Gee, who are the Mages driving around in those black Mercedes and Lincolns with the tinted windows? The ones who live in the mansions with the hell-hounds in the yard and the 7-foot tall hairless black doormen? Every town has some, the bigger the town, the more of these “High Magi” you will find.”

Man. I’ve just gotta get me one of those tinfoil hats. No wonder I voted for Bush. It’s not my fault; I was magically brainwashed!

[sheesh!] Some of those moonbats need their medication via IVs…

Earth to moonbats! Earth to moonbats! Hypoxia’s just a short step from anoxia! Come back down to earth!

I’ve been reading a lot of the loony left’s moonbat “They stole this election, too!” posts on various boards. It’s time for folks to realize that the divide between the “two Americas” is along the lines of those who have at least a semi-firm grasp of reality (mostly middle and middle right, if you want to use a one-dimensional dipolar model) and those on the anything-left-of-center whose medication needs serious tweaking.

Speaking to the loony left moonbats, now: OK, moonbats, it’s time to take a deep breath. Calm down. Listen (or read, in this case–or maybe listen while someone reads to you) very carefully. I’m only going to say this once (unless I flip-flop on that decision, after too much sKerry over the last few months):

Nanny. Nanny. Boo. Boo.
