[Here's the next batch of fresh sand.  I find it interesting how the intersection of what interests me and RR's commenters goes up and down.  It appears that the interests of our most voluble readers pretty much track the news cycle, often leaving unattended more fundamental and systemic events/trends that impact our lives and country.  Because I have always walked a path less tread, for me this variance is noteworthy but not a consternation, since RR has always been a record of my observations and interpretations from the last great century of Man.  In sum, I think of my weblog as a letter to my family and the future which, of course, includes the contents of its comment streams.  gjr]

    Continued from closed Sanbox:
    Todd @ 9:47 am
    We both agree that the owner of the Little Red Hen is free to follow her conscious and refuse Sarah Sanders service. Repulicans can take their business elsewhere, no biggie. Nothing to do with race, creed, or ethnicity. I am ok with that.
    It has everything to do with religion. Although the Left would be aghast to say it’s about religion, their Progressive ideas are a strick religion to them. It’s their God. It’s what they worship. So, when the Red Hen lady said she cannot in good conscious serve the current press secretary or member of the Administration, it makes sense from a religious point of view.
    But, here is the big difference. After stating her views, the restaurant owner followed the Sanders dinner party across the street and tried to impose her views on the restaurant across the street. Not only was Sarah and family told to leave her restaurant, the lady wanted others to feel, do, say, and act they way she did. She demanded it. “Those people”. are not welcome in her community. Not “those people”. Not on her streets. She demanded the place across the street to do as she did, make the same decision as the Red Hen lady did. Unlike the cake baker, she did not try to find another place to accomadate her customer’s needs.
    Thus, the bigger picture. Our nation was founded on the radical idea that each individual is a self governing entity, within the latitude of reason, of course. Not talking about criminal activity, obviously. As individuals, we would exercise our freedoms and follow our dreams and live our lives as we see fit with a minimal of outside intrusion and without coercion.. .be it association, speech, religion, right to peacefully assemble, right to secure in our own persons and homes, etc. The ole “free to disagree.”
    The religion of the Leftists are not that way . It is rooted in coercion, stifling of dissent, and the antithesis to the self governing individual. The Don’t Thread on Me flag is decried as racist, offensive, or whatever label they hurl at it as an unacceptable emblem of an unacceptable ideal. It must be torn down, burned, and stricken from public display and even private display is found.
    The proprietor of the Little Red Hen was following her beliefs and conscious by asking Sarah Hucklebee and her family/friends/associates to leave her establishment. That is her religion’s beliefs. Not really a problem with me or you.
    But, but, but…. But, when Ms. Hucklebee honored the Red Hen’s request and vacated the premises, the lady then showed WHAT her religion is all about. She chased the departing party down and imposed her beliefs on the establishment across the street. That is totalitarianism. That is Maoist. That is tyranny. Her religion is stricter and more intolerant than any cult.
    That is their religion. That is their tenets, , be they good, bad, or indifferent for all the world to see. They worship at the alter of shoving their will down the throats of others and they feel there are no other ways or ideas or beliefs worth mentioning or considering. To them, there is no other beliefs They are groupies of a dangerous sect and hold dear to the belief they alone should be the only ones to hold the keys to the kingdom. Burn the heretics at the stake…and their books with them.

    I think the loons of the left have opened up a can of worms they closed many years ago. They have now allowed a business to boot people for any reason. Regardless of race, religion etc. They are the now “Old South” democrats that started the Civil War. They are racists and bigots.
    So that is the new normal according to the democrats. A business can actually say”no shoes, no service”!

    Economist Peter Morici thinks Democrats are lucky that tax filing day doesn’t come before November’s midterm elections.
    Morici appeared on “Fox & Friends First” on Monday to react to U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin’s announcement that new, postcard-sized tax forms will be released this week.
    As they worked on tax reform, Republicans had promised to make the filing process clearer and simpler for Americans, so much so that the 1040 form, the basic tax-filing document, would be the size of a postcard.
    “Next week we will be unveiling the new 1040, and it will be a postcard as we promised,” Mnuchin said last Wednesday during a press conference celebrating the six-month anniversary of the passage of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. “Hardworking taxpayers won’t have to spend nearly as much time filling out their taxes.”
    Morici said many taxpayers will find filling out the postcard form much easier, because they can simply take the new larger standard deduction instead of itemizing their deductions.

    From the same comment thread

    “It is worth remembering that Herbert Marcuse, part of the Frankfurt School, wrote “One Dimensional Man,” in which he coined the term “repressive tolerance.” That idea was embraced by the New Left of the 1960s and is the foundation of the “political correctness.”
    The idea is that Left is good, and Right is bad, and anything or anyone who tolerates the expression of views from the Right is engaged in repression. Whereas anything said on the Left is acceptable and tolerated. It is the progressive idea. History can and must progress, and there is just one direction for progress, and anyone who tries to divert it or slow it down is an enemy of the people and must be treated as such.
    Marcuse was a Marxist who was allowed to enter the US as a refugee from the Third Reich. A lot of good it did us. He got a comfortable well-paid tenured teaching post at a state owned university (US San Diego), along with lovely weather. He sponged off the taxpayer, and then took the native voters and taxpayers that he would enjoy taking away their Constitution. Don’t we just love immigration?
    Let’s just say he wasn’t any different from the Nazis that he fled. Had he suffered repression at the hands of the Nazis who didn’t value freedom of speech, it would have been ironic and poetic justice.
    As you can see from the Times editorial, Marcuse’s “ideas” are still popular among the thuggish class.
    If we were to take away freedom of speech from people who say stupid things, what would be left of the academic world?”

    Only a declaration of a emergency as such would work. Marshall law could be an option if deemed necessary. Right now we have the Treaty of Guadeloupe that bars assembling the US military at the border. National guard troops are for domestic civil unrest, restoring order, and “law enforcement actions”, not military.
    I hear some well meaning, but foolish ideas, about sending troops down to Mexico’s southern border to nip the problem in the bud. Do we really want our troops sent down to Mexico’s southern border? Think of the implications, the international violations of Mexico’s soveignty (and other nation’s soveignty) and other issues. No, it is up to us to secure our borders at our borders.
    Marshall law? Perhaps a Homeland Security declaration, state of emergency. It’s an option, albeit not on the table right now. If nothing else, a Wall would funnel most illegals to points of entry or choke points instead of having a wide open/ porous 4,000 mile area to send massive amounts of manpower and limited resources to. Sure, those bound and determined with the initiative to sneak in illegally will find a way. Slowing down the unabated flow is our first immediate priority. Stopping it will take awhile. First thing you do when out in the woods and mauled by a bear is to stop the bleeding. Then you work on on the next steps to close the wound. We have an open gash that needs to be addressed before bleeding out.

The Times even noted that Watkins once told friends she “wanted off the beat,” but “her editors were eager for scoops.”
    “Times officials are currently examining her work history and what influence the relationship may have had on her reporting,” according to the report.
    “Last fall, after Ms. Watkins and Mr. Wolfe had broken up and while she was still reporting on the intelligence committee for Politico, she briefly dated another staff member at the committee, friends said. That relationship, which has not been previously reported, ended when the two decided not to pursue something more serious,” the Times wrote.

    Now hypocrisy is a mandatory practice for the left –

    So I am asking you, Madeline Albright and Gloria Steinem, to say something now. Your lofty words about equality and respect mean nothing if they don’t apply to all women. Did you mean it, or are you complete, hypocritical phonies? This is the moment for you to put up or shut up.

    This morning I listened to Devin Nunes call in a radio station. He (the committee) was giving the FBI until 5 o’clock today to fork over the documents they are seeking. Nunes said he don’t care if you call them informants or whatever, but most normal people call them spies. All he wants to know how many informants were involved to spy on the Trump Campaign and how much were they paid. Simple enough, no names necessary. My guess is the FBI-DOJ will slow walk, stall, and give up what little they can. Oh yeah, Nunes wants to know who is in charge, first and foremost.
    So, who is in charge??? Wray or Rosenstein? Me thinks that the government does not want the committee to know when they started the Russian investigation into Trump. Period. They said it started in July, 2016. Me thinks it started in the Spring of 2016, after Brennan flew to Moscow, but did not check in the the Russian foreign service department. Anyway, not much news and the deadline has passed, EST.
    “What we’re asking for is, we want to know who’s in charge — Wray or Rosenstein, or neither?” Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) said Monday.
    Number two, we want to know if they ran informants — either one or more, and how much they were paid,” he said. “It’s something we’ve been asking for months. And they refuse to answer the question. It’s very simple.”

    Earlier this month, the most fervent advocate of impeachment for Donald Trump was charged by The House ethics committee for several ethics and rules violations. Waters was named the most corrupt member of Congress in 2005, 2006, 2009, 2011, and now in 2017 by the group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington. This time, Waters is accused of helping a bank in which her husband owned stock in secure federal bailout funds.

    Oh Slappy Maxie. The taxpayers are still waiting for your kin to make good on the 12 million loan, but to date have not seen a penny of it paid back. Is it racism, Slappy Maxie, is it? Is that why they persecuted you? Was it because you be a black woman? Was it The Vast Right Wing Conspiracy, again?
    “During the height of the 2008 fiscal crisis, Waters helped arrange a meeting between the Treasury Department and top executives of a bank where her husband was a shareholder. Using her post on the House Financial Committee as leverage, she called Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson personally, asking him to meet with minority-owned banks.
    When Treasury followed through, there was only one financial institution present: OneUnited. Had that bank gone under, the New York Times reported, Waters’ husband would’ve lost as much as $350,000. Luckily for the Waters family, OneUnited received a cool $12 million in bailout funds.
    After three years of special investigation, the ethics committee eventually ruled that Waters didn’t technically break any rules. But that ruling came after unearthing her more than questionable family business practices, like making her grandson, Mikael Moore, her chief of staff.”

    Venezuela, 10 montha ago.
    “GENEVA (30 August 2017) – Extensive human rights violations and abuses have been committed in the context of anti-Government protests in Venezuela and point to “the existence of a policy to repress political dissent and instil fear in the population to curb demonstrations,” a report* by the UN Human Rights Office has found.
    “The generalized and systematic use of excessive force during demonstrations and the arbitrary detention of protestors and perceived political opponents indicate that these were not the illegal or rogue acts of isolated officials,” the report says.
    The report calls on the UN Human Rights Council to consider taking measures to prevent the human rights situation in Venezuela, currently a Council member, from worsening.
    Analysis by the UN Human Rights Office indicates that of the 124 deaths linked to the protests being investigated by the Attorney General’s Office as of 31 July, the security forces were reportedly responsible for 46 and pro-Government armed groups, known as armed colectivos, for 27. Responsibility for the remaining 51 deaths has not yet been determined.
    During the period covered by the report, 1 April to 31 July, the Attorney-General’s Office opened investigations into at least 1,958 cases of reported injuries in the context of demonstrations. The report’s analysis of injuries shows the use of force progressively escalated. In the first half of April, the majority of injuries were from inhaling tear gas; by July, medical personnel were treating gunshot injuries.”

    The P word? Now wait a cotton pickin’ moment. You never picked cotton and I sure as heck never own slaves. My pool boys were well paid and fed raw meat. Next thing you know the Union will censor Boardman for saying ghetto.

    Boardman at 7:57 – I was responding to your post. Are you admitting you can’t back up your words? Stand and deliver or crawl away.
    You made the observation. Stop deflecting. Typical left-wing BS.
    Posts big talk and then runs away. Continue your point with facts and reason or just admit you are repeating crap you read some where.

    Now that the enemies of traditional culture have latched onto ‘cotton’, in the case of ‘cotton pickin’ referring to somewhat mindless but grueling manual labor (and evidently only performed by black Americans in the history of the country), I propose that ‘cotton’ be dubbed The Other ‘C’ Word.
    It’ll scan oddly to read:
    c***** to
    high c*****
    c***** pickin’
    c***** on to
    tall c*****
    but our media Lord and Masters have spoken.
    Whether the original ‘C’ word outranks the new ‘C’ word is up to the progressive hive mind, although using the original ‘C’ word makes those phrases read oddly.
    I await breathlessly for the first printing on bed sheets of ‘100% Organic C*****, Hand Wash’.
