Sandbox – 16sep20

[Today the Dems’ Big Lies are dropping faster than I can record them.  Some major moves in the lamestream include the sudden silence of 1) reports on the progress of fighting C19, and 2) ignoring the historical and momentous progress toward lasting Mideast peace, Palestinian resolution, and thwarting Iran that President Trump’s foreign policies have achieved – not to mention the much-needed realignment of relations with Russia, China, and North Korea.  And, of course, then there’s the robust health of our economy that has been able to weather the C19 lockdowns initiated by the states, and is now on a solid road to pre-C19 recovery.  All of this must be kept from the nation’s sheeple.  gjr]

    Re: Leftmedia: “The news as we once understood it is dead. It has been replaced by the un-news: a political narrative created by partisans who believe the noble ends of destroying Trump justify any biased means necessary — including destroying their own reputation and craft.” —Victor Davis Hanson.
    Does VDH know our local news director? “…… partisans who believe the noble ends of destroying Trump justify any biased means necessary — including destroying their own reputation and craft.” —
    ————————
    Friday Quotes and maybe more, maybe not.
    Insight: “People constantly speak of ‘the government’ doing this or that, as they might speak of God doing it. But the government is really nothing but a group of men, and usually they are very inferior men.” —H.L. Mencken (1880-1956)
    Observations: “A culture that presents children as sexual objects is a culture that exploits them for adult gratification. This is not limited to adults receiving sexual gratification from children. More often, it is about making the adults feel better about the sexual choices they themselves have made, regardless of what this does to the children.” —Laura Hollis
    Upright: “Our mission is to defend the legacy of America’s founding, the virtue of America’s heroes, and the nobility of the American character. We must clear away the web of twisted lies in our schools and classrooms and teach our children the magnificent truth about our country. We want our sons and daughters to know that they are the citizens of the most exceptional nation in the history of the world.” —Donald Trump
    Re: Leftmedia: “The news as we once understood it is dead. It has been replaced by the un-news: a political narrative created by partisans who believe the noble ends of destroying Trump justify any biased means necessary — including destroying their own reputation and craft.” —Victor Davis Hanson
    For the record: “They’re not interested in black lives. They’re interested in props, a small number of blacks who are killed by police during conflicts with police — usually less than a dozen a year — who they can use as props to achieve a much broader political agenda.” —William Barr on Black Lives Matter
    Food for thought: “We are in a period of decadence and we’re in a period where decadence is dominant. And if you don’t want to be decadent, you better keep your mouth shut. Power is never given up. Power is taken. … This is one of the great transition periods. I think the most important thing to recognize is that this is a historic rather than a political period.” —Newt Gingrich
    A blast from the past: “Voting by mail is now common enough and problematic enough that election experts say there have been multiple elections in which no one can say with confidence which candidate was the deserved winner.” —The New York Times just before the 2012 presidential election on “Error and Fraud” associated with voting by mail
    Reading the tea leaves: “We support peaceful demonstrations. We participate in them. They are part of the essence of our democracy. That does not include looting, starting fires, or rioting. They should be prosecuted. That is lawlessness.” —Nancy PelosAnd last… “[Social media] censorship does not make us wiser. It does not make us better informed. If it did, we would be speaking Russian right now and the Soviet Union would be running the world. Instead, the Soviet Union is extinct. It collapsed under the weight of its own absurdities — absurdities abetted by censorship.” —Tucker Carlson after social media outlets removed comments from a respected Chinese scientist about the origins of the coronavirus

    Gotta love Der Mayor’s little speeches. EVERYTHING IS FINE. Of course, he’d let the city burn to the ground before he’d take help from Trump & the Feds. It isn’t like Trump would win New York state, that has nothing to do with it. The ‘Resistance’ is a lot bigger than just an anti-Trump election stunt, and they are fine with a bit of collateral damage.
    JH Kunstler speaks:
    “There’s the Swamp teeming with scaley, slithery, sharp-toothed, many-footed predators, but then there’s the miasma hanging over the Swamp, a toxic mist of lies, misdirection, dis-info, propaganda, bad faith, and sedition, illuminated by pulsing blue gaslight that affords a toxic blanket of protection to the denizens of the Swamp. Now a storm is brewing. The critters are evacuating their mud-holes and moiling about desperately among the cypress knobs as a mighty wind rises — the election hurricane — threatening to sweep it (and them) all away!
    The climate is changing, all right, but not in the way that some think it is. The political climate is changing, and what has been a pestilential subtropical sink on the Potomac is overdue for that cleansing we’ve heard about. Weeks from now, as the fetid water subsides, the protective miasma above will dissipate and the people from sea to shining sea will finally get a good look at the landscape revealed and the pitiful, wriggling, dying life-forms of the order Democratica stranded on it.

    TIME FOR THE DEMOCRATS TO PULL THE PLUG ON JOE BIDEN?
    “Here is the latest from Joe Biden: he misread his teleprompter, and pronounced that by the time his speech was over, 200 million Americans–two-thirds of our population!–will have died from COVID-19, and it is all President Trump’s fault:”…
    “Joe Biden has never been an intelligent person, but there was a time when his brain would have sounded an alarm if he was about to say that 2/3 of the U.S. population was about to perish. But those days are gone. Biden is a pathetic shell of a man, and for the Democrats to continue propping him up as a presidential candidate is elder abuse.
    Because of the crazy environment in which we live, there is a chance that Biden might be elected president. But he will never serve as president. He can’t. He is senile, suffering from advanced dementia. If the Democrats care, they aren’t showing it.”

    Yes, Punchy, so… you now think Trump should have sent troops into New York and New Jersey to reverse their push to put patients with active infections into long term care facilities?

    There would be many fewer Americans dead had Dem governors used common sense.”

    You know, that’s a pretty good question and needs answering I think.
    Paul, should Trump have sent in federal troops to save the old people?
    Oddly, the US has slightly more deaths per million than Sweden, which did essentially nothing.
    Damn that Trump! Why did he do anything at all?!
    I also see that Papua New Guinea only had 6 deaths total. I guess they know how to wash their hands better than New Yorkers.

Because I think we can all agree that from the start, he’s gotten the appropriate amount of coverage befitting the seriousness of his candidacy. Ha. I hope you all are proud of yourselves.

    Re Trump’s part in America’s C19 policies – In sum, I believe we have done an excellent job responding to this pandemic, given our country’s size, mix of cultures, natural independence of reacting to government diktats, and federalism that puts the onus on developing and executing public response policies to the several states and not the federal government. This assessment gains more support when we compare our pandemic stats – rates of infection, mortality, recovery, comorbidity, infection demographics – with those of other smaller, culturally more cohesive nations. And when you add the administration’s launch of programs to procure necessary medical equipments and supplies, care facilities, and launch of an historic multi-faceted program to rapidly develop C19 vaccines, there is no doubt that this administration’s response has been correct and proper given what was known when.
    Finally, NOBODY has been able to Monday-morning-quarterback a response policy that would unambiguously have been better than what President Trump and his administration have done. (The best that Bumblebrain has muttered is a list of things Trump is doing or has already executed.) All that has been raised in opposition are naked and baseless allegations of his ‘mismanaging the Covid response’, allegations that have been drilled daily into the heads of the nation’s light and never thinkers by our lamestream media outlets, and then echoed at the grass roots level by the Left’s equally attentive local lackeys.

    This is quite unbelievable. Trump gives himself an A+ on his handling of the Corona Virus.
    “On public relations I give myself a ‘D.’ On the job itself, we take an ‘A+,’”
    Trump gives himself ‘A+’ on COVID-19 response as US death toll hits grim 200,000 milestone

    Is this the sign of A+ leadership when Trump ignored the request of the Governor of Michigan and had a mass rally with no social distancing or masking?
    “We anticipate that he will be descending on this state and perhaps encouraging people to come maskless,” Governor Whitmer, a Democrat, told host Anderson Cooper in reference to Trump.
    “This is very distressing,” she said.
    “I would love to see the leader of our country embrace masks and encourage people to do the right thing.”

    My question was Is this the sign of A+ leadership when Trump ignored the request of the Governor of Michigan and had a mass rally with no social distancing or masking?
    This is after recordings emerged of him stating very clearly the dangers of airborne virus transmission. This was from Feb 7
    “This is deadly stuff,” he told the investigative journalist Bob Woodward.
    “You just breathe the air, and that’s how it’s passed,” the president warned..
    so George do you consider that A+ leadership of the Corona Virus Pandemic situation.
    He does claim to be our Commander and Chief in the battle against the pandemic.
