Kissing up to Code Pink

Some of my former co-workers, now also retired, periodically wax nostalgic about the snooze biz. I’m not nostalgic about it in the least, and can get downright irritable when I remember how it turned into the Leftist suckup news media that is pounding Trump, just like it enabled the Bush 2 haters and spent so much ink and paper kissing up to the lunatics of Code Pink

Undeserved credibility back then went to CP every time they held a “protest.” Some hapless reporter (including myself more often than I like to remember) was dispatched to “cover” their nonsense and lies. And if you tried to write objectively or included too many quotes from their critics, you got beaten back. As one editor told me in excising same from one of mine: “This is THEIR story.”

A President Trump will bring them back to the streets, I’m sure, and back to the pages of the snoozepapers, which are now struggling to pay the light bill. But it will be worth it to see the CP apoplexy. I hope they yell their pink selves hoarse and turn red. They already are Reds, politically, of course.

Who were, as an OCS friend’s WW2 veteran father once said, “the same as Nazis but in crappier uniforms.”

Putin’s aide now said to have killed himself by accident

So say the same folks who, three years later, are still covering up the murder of Miriam Carey, a young, photogenic black mother hit five times in the back by white-cop bullets.

Factor that into whether you buy their latest conclusion on Mikhail Lesin. Not to mention the lingering case of Seth Rich.

‘Ballot harvesting’ in Fort Worth

Well, technically Tarrant County, but the only city of any size there is Fort Worth. Where voting is being investigated by the state for “ballot harvesting,” an interesting form of paper voting fraud that still works in the computer age.

Never mind hacking a voting machine. Never mind voting the dead. Simply beg, buy or steal enough paper mail-in ballots to/from the elderly and the poor to make a difference in an election. Fill them out the way you want, affix the appropriate fraudulent signature and away you go.

If the election you’re out to defraud goes one way or the other by only a few score votes, as some sometimes do, your fraud is in business and you’ve saved yourself the need to learn computer programing or hire some criminal hacker to do it for you.

UPDATE:  Sometimes a rogue insider can upend the paper process all by his own self. And, the investigation intensifies with a reward offered for tips.

Obama the actor and Hillary the body double

The Z man is quite funny sometimes, and none more so than in these final days of the quadrennial presidential whizbang, the circus Felonia keeps skipping, sleeping her way through the campaign, and sending her body doubles out to debate Trump.

Who is ever more desperate to wipe off the slime the Democrat news media (80 to 85 percent of big media, as Rudy G. recently put it) keeps pouring on him.

“…the one thing about Bubba that we can probably say with certainty,” writes the Z man. “His entire life has been organized around getting laid….Hillary is different…For all anyone knows, she could be a head in a jar and those old fat women we see waddling around from time to time are just body doubles…All of her capers somehow involve her putting cash in her purse. Back in Arkansas, she was the one involved in the phony land deals, bank jobs and influence peddling. Today, she is the one running the money laundering operations, that necessitated the secret e-mail system…”

And Obama? Is he real or is he Memorex, as an old television ad once had it? The Z Man again: “Obama may as well be an actor, for as much as anyone knows about the guy. Even after all these years, his back story remains a mystery to most Americans. He’s simply the young version of  Morgan Freeman playing President in Deep Impact. Staff write his speeches, prepare him for the fake interviews they stage for the public and otherwise direct every aspect of his public performance.”

And he is incredbily boring. Even his cow of a wife, Moochele, is merely a creditable stand-in for Chewbacca. Better looking, maybe, in a way, than the other animals in Star Wars, but still a wookie.

Hillary’s black stepson

One of the oldest jokes about the mudslinging in American politics is from slavery days. A white candidate in the 1850s is giving his stump speech, literally from a tree stump, when his opponent pays a handful of black children to run at him yelling “Daddy, daddy!”

Now it seems Slick Willie’s sexual misadventures have led to a real black child running at him (at least on the Web, so far, but including Drudge) begging to be recognized at long last.

As if Felonia von Pantsuit didn’t have enough October surprises already, Danny Williams, 30, is her latest one: “Hillary, please do not deny I exist. I am your stepson. Chelsea is my sister. And Bill is my father.”

Woohoo.

UPDATE:  Drudge says the Clinton News Network has ordered its minions not to report on Williams. Not dissimilar from the way they and the rest quietly ignored Monica, until Drudge had hammered the subject long enough. See why the feds want to control the Net?

MORE: And then YouTube banned him. Maybe the feds don’t need direct control, eh?

The Republic is dead II

Question: What is the Constitution for?
Answer: To limit the power of the federal government.

The federal code contains something like 5,000 criminal statutes and describes an estimated 30,000 regulatory violations that can be treated as crimes.

The founders would be aghast.

Bring out your dead!

The old cry of the black plague cities will have a whole new meaning as the presidential election nears. The ruling class’s Democrat enforcers can’t help themselves. This is how they’ve always won elections.

To paraphrase someone I can’t recall offhand: My mother never voted for a Democrat until after she died.
