How to handle a hysterical Prog

Oops.
Maybe ’14 and then ’16 will be the slap that progs need to wake up and get real. Right now they’re insane and going down the toilet. Then again, repubs are very talented at snapping defeat from the jaws of victory. It’s in their blood or something. So maybe we’ll all just spiral down and go boom.
I’m picturing a Dem supermajority with Warren as president. No one would have to work. Whoohoo! That would be great for a couple of years. Apparently math is hard.
My favorite thing from the crazy progs is take the wealth from the rich. Like they have pots of gold sitting around. Really crazy. No, the own parts of companies. And if you make most or all companies owned by the government, boom. Yep, math is really hard for some people.
Yeah. Or “confiscatory taxes on their investment income, then!” Okaaaay, let’s think this through, Sparky. What happens to the value of your pension or 401k when all the people with money liquidate out now, and stop putting their money there in the future?
Going after the rich has NEVER, in all of history, eliminated the rich. EVER. It has never happened, not even once. It has done a damn fine job, however, of eliminating the Middle Class – over and over.
Seems obvious if you think it through. But there’s the rub for many, thinking things through.
Well, they like to point to a specific rich person taken down by some revolution or another, and say “See! It works!” No, moron. You did not get rid of the rich. You merely changed who gets to be the rich.
Honk!
The next target of their dynamic brain trust will be the food industry. Whoever produces product with actual calories will be considered evil.
After that, agriculture. Which will be based on diversity and sustainability factors, not necessity.
honk
Here’s the thing. Math isn’t real. Meth is real but math is theoretical, therefore unreal. So it doesn’t matter.
Ah, but a Platonist would say math is real, about real things. Yeah, too much philosophy of math slipped out again. Bad math guy, bad.
Apparently, nothing counts more than ensuring the “right” people are in charge and in on the vig.
How many Progs understand math? Most of them seem to be non-science majors – Art, English, Philosophy, Poetry and Economics.
Bingo!
Prog theme song:
MUH FEEEEELINGS!
It has begun to drizzle here in Central California. Thousands of drivers are attempting to defy the laws of physics.
California in a drizzle “storm” is like Atlanta in a flurry “storm”.
You can drive fast in the rain, but you cannot stop or turn on wet pavement if you are going fast.
It’s so bad some of the drivers with functional windshield wipers are actually using them.
😆
It’s like the first time you drive a motorboat. You’re like whoa, I’m slipping around and can’t turn. Same with a boat on the water.

you can not make this up
So after they take down the people who keep commerce going, how are the IPad stores gonna be resupplied?
See the UCLA student meltdown video in the last post for their likely reaction. 🙂
🙂 Or the “end of the world” guy on Scott Walker’s recall defeat.
I noticed that line up of pricy Apples in the video. Not one entry level Toshiba/HP/Lenovo or an even cheaper chromebook. No peons allowed. Unintelligible blabbering babies only want the perceived elite shiny objects on which to shed their crocodile tears.
They’re all gonna have urban organic farms and live in haaaaahmony with Mother Nature. You know, just like those OWS dweebs who took over the Berkely uni farm and couldn’t manage to keep a few tomato plants alive.
To say nothing of the ag research they trashed when they took it over. Because #caring.
It’s all one big tantrum, 24/7. It’s like the BAKE ME A GAY CAKE, DAMMIT! bullshit.
Look, if we lived in a country where the vast majority of bakeries/photogs were refusing to do gay weddings? I might have some sympathy, and consider it a brave thing to sue one of them as an act of raising awareness. That I could understand.
But when there are THOUSANDS of businesses who would have no prob doing your wedding, and you go hunting and hunting to pick out the ONE who won’t? That’s not a brave stand in some grand struggle: That’s just being a fucking dick.
Hater! Nyah nyah, we can do commerce with FREE ENERGY and perpetual motion machines! Like this one!

Loved that somebody associated with a technology column was actually dense enough to publish it.
Witch burning. I can’t say that I’m all that surprised it would come back in style.

have to check to see if this is covered under obamacare
The guy that invents the trouble free, no bother, ten day old non-itchy beard generating cream will make gazillions.
is this gender bias????
OK, you win. gender neutral “trouble free, no bother, ten day old non-itchy beard generating cream “
http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/danielhannan/100260720/whenever-you-mention-fascisms-socialist-roots-left-wingers-become-incandescent-why/
how drive a prog crazy
If progs hate incandescent lighting and have been working on eliminating said lighting from the face of the earth,
and progs become incandescent when confronted with the truth of their beliefs,
should not progs ban themselves?
See, there you go, making the same mistake again. You’ve slipped back into Logic Mode. Progs can’t relate to that.
Unfuckingbelievable:
Gold star.
The elites are so incestuous, we’re going to have to start screening them all for birth defects/
I hope the physical award is a pot metal snowflake.
I think it was the first and third thing you mentioned.

Too funny, would love to see a gay couple ask this church to marry them ….
http://gothamist.com/2014/02/26/video_harlem_church_angry_at_obama.php
Local churches here are going to members only for weddings. A large, old and really beautiful church with glorious gardens surrounding it have stopped renting it out for weddings to anyone who is not affiliated somehow with the church. They charged a lot! I guess this may be part of it although a member told me it was because of assholes thinking they could do anything trashy they wanted at the receptions even though it was in the garden or big hall on church property.
This is how far down the man-hate rabbit hole the feminists have gone:
It’s for the greater good. The ends justify the means. It takes a village. Got to break a few eggs to make an omelet. Etc.
We had to brutalize the woman some more, to make sure she did her duty to society.
Coercion, threats, imprisonment to “help” a rape victim. These people are filth. Aren’t they doing the same thing to her as the “rapist” only not using a dick.
Even though I’m a law & order guy, I totally understand why some rape victims don’t want to relive the nightmare by reporting it. In those cases I support automatic castration orders in lieu of prosecution.
That should stop him. 😯
I support well-armed women putting lots and lots of holes in would-be rapists.
Thinning the herd always obtains salubrious results, I hear.
for many years rape victims did not come forward for fear of being raped again by the legal system. the fact that this young lady can not see that and understand says more about her then the rape victim .
Marcotte was John Edwards’ social media director for about a week.
I just like to point that out once in a while.

new backtrack stimulus announced today for transportation.
claim it will create and save jobs. But the dems just told me last week that unemployment meant freedom. Is backtrack trying to take my freedom away?

this article made me laugh. There’s gold in them there hills
Klown might know some, too, but when I was up in the hills behind him we had six neighbors in our subdivision whose official occupations were “gold miner”. They each went out on their own several days a week panning for gold in the Fresno River and other locations in and around Ahwahnee, Nipinnawasee and Mariposa. and while each day’s take was mostly “bean money”, they seemed to strike enough “color” to keep the wolves from their doors.
That’s nothing compared to the companies profiting from fake green technology.
And you don’t have to put up with wet, cold feet all day long, either.
http://duhprogressive.com/index.php/421-government-now-classifying-laziness-as-a-disease-requires-benefits
per backtrack bunch laziness is a disease and requires benefits
That’s funny.
I need a doctors appointment, I guess.
This X a gazillion:
The gay gestapo doesn’t get that the majority of us have friends and family that we value and love. Do they ever for a minute contemplate the struggles that those who work on accepting a gay relative endure. Facing one’s prejudices is never an easy thing. Beating them over the head with it seems counter productive to me.
I’m just saddened and sickened by all of it, on BOTH sides. Yes, we are going to disagree. No, it does not, and never HAD to be, this fucking UGLY.
Gay Patriot has a post up with a few instances of the hypocritical media refusing to air ads sponsored by gay groups.
I saw that. The powers that be WANT it to be ugly. They don’t want the kind, approachable, gays to be heard, nor the kind, approachable Christians.
The spirit of the age, and the progressive noise machine (some GOP included), is EVIL. Not because of this or that specific policy, that I may or may not agree with, but because they freaking thrive on stirring up hatred, and setting people on each other like dogs.
I am sick to death of this shit.

Grew up Catholic so can I have every tv show that has “taken the name of the Lord thy God in vain” taken off the air?
Terrorist Convicted of Bombings In Israel Worked As Obamacare Navigator In Illinois
http://weaselzippers.us/176945-terrorist-convicted-of-bombings-in-israel-worked-as-obamacare-navigator-in-illinois/
Bomber, Navigator, sounds like somebody is putting together air crews.
Why do I get the feeling I’ll only learn about this story from WZ ? Sad, isn’t it? 😦
Here VM, a tweet to prove my point. I think this had to do with burning students alive by “terrorists” in Nigeria? AP’s got the details buried somewhere….on page 12?
To be fair, the little children running newsrooms don’t want to offend anyone who might actually be dangerous.

some times I think obamacare was a terrorist attack on America, coming from the inside
Like it or not, gay is here to stay. Make your peace with it and move on.

Gov Jan Brewer’s letter on her decision
http://canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/61394
I was anti-obama before it was cool
question
the people that just found all those gold coins, do they have to turn them in to the government?
remember reading about another couple that found gold coins and the government took them because of Roosevelt law confiscating gold in the 1930s?
I don’t understand why they blabbed about it.
Me, either.
I would have kept my lips zipped. Maybe they didn’t want to be accused of stealing them.
The face value IF you could use them for commerce was $27K. But you can’t use them anymore. As curios they are probably worth more than $10M. They own the property they were found on and have owned it for over a decade. In CA unless they were stolen, that means they own them. So to sell them they had to determine if they were stolen. They’ve decided to sell most and to use legitimate sources, so they need to be legit. They will probably space out the sales over several years to mitigate their taxes. Last I heard the public and their neighbors don’t know who they are. I know of three different “Saddle Ridges” in gold country, but it’s a common location name up in them thar hills.
I believe there is a numismatic exception to the Roosevelt law for coins that are “collector quality”, or some such.
Also… statute of limitations?
tell me that wouldn’t be fun?

the Ulsterman usually has good info
Goulka probably was taking about the Mojave and Colorado sand dunes. A rich low information voter. Who’da thunk it?
Just a heads up, I think I feel one of my internet sabbaticals coming on. Those who have known me a long time online know that I do this periodically. I disengage and go take a total break from politics. So, if in the next week or so I begin to disappear, no worries, I’ll be back. 🙂
Or maybe that mood will pass this time, and I’ll keep going, I dunno.
Booo, but I get it.
No worries. Chill. Read. Etc. Popup anytime you feel snarky. 🙂
Apricot trees must be budding out.
😦 x 100
Was reading the comments above about the found gold, and it reminded me of something hubby told me. It seems that in Italy, in the little villages and stuff, you can’t hardly swing a pickaxe without running across some kind of archaologically significant thing. Or at least, potentially so.
Problem is, you are supposed to inform the govt if when you are, say, remodeling your basement, you start ripping stuff out and find half of an old frescoe on the wall or something. But if you do that, the bureaucracy is so bad that they are liable to shut down your damn basement remodel for 5 years while they haggle over whether it needs preserving or not. And who even knows what they’ll do after that.
So the Italians just keep their damn mouths shut, and don’t tell the govt. Which is why my husband’s dirt poor stone family home in Italy (which his dad still owned up until a few years ago) had a beautiful Madonna on a basement wall that the gubmint didn’t know dick about. The family lit candles to her, and she was said to weep when family tragedy was coming.
It’s like Connecticut passing a retroactive law to register pre-existing guns. Silence.
I’m kinda waiting for word that someone has assasinated an archduke and it’s on.
Oh, well, THAT was obviously the wrong paste. Here it is:

I guess he wanted some extra pepperoni on his pizza.
*sigh* Ladies, men have a deep-seated need for a particular type of respect, in a particular way that we don’t.
Trust me, they are ever so much easier to handle and manage if you give it to them. 😉 😉 😉 Your grandmothers knew this shit.
Ukriane is about to blow the fuck up. Russian tanks rolling to Crimea. Armed gunmen took over Crimean parliament and hoisted Russian flag. Now Chechnya is offering to send troops into Crimea.
Don’t worry, Obama will give a speech and make everything better!
After he flies to the wast coast for a speech he’ll draw another line and all will be well.
FTFY
