I Hate Hypocrites: Rant of the Day

So here we are, in the middle of the biggest MSM tirade, smear campaign, attempts at ousting, call it what you like, against any sitting US President in history. The media foams at the mouth in their efforts to destroy President Trump, all the while forgetting he was not only freely elected, but that is how our system is supposed to work. They can't comprehend the fact that sometimes, the deep-state, died-in-the-wool, professional politicians don't get elected. Every once in a while someone comes in and cleans out the slime. Get over it. Well, I said I hate hypocrites, and here is an example; Currently, the media and leftist politicians are seething over Mr. Trump's assertion that the press is the "enemy of the state." A Twitter shot that sent them into spasms. Well guess what; if they have an agenda to remove a sitting president because of corruption, bias, or their own political agenda, they are the enemy of the state. Here's the hypocrisy. The Lefties did this to the press first, yet they all play dumb. They want to make sure you don't remember that little tid-bit. Peccadillo. Whatever. But, in 2013 the Obama Justice Department launched an investigation into the Associated Press and named Fox News journalist James Rosen a "co-conspirator," claiming these actions were necessary as part of a terrorism investigation. Dana Milbank of the Washington Post stated: "The Rosen affair is as flagrant an assault on civil liberties...and it uses technology to silence critics. To treat a reporter as a criminal for doing his job, seeking out information the government doesn’t want made public, deprives Americans of the First Amendment freedom on which all other constitutional rights are based." Yep, the government wire tapped him, etc. etc. An editorial board of the New York Times (yes, the 'hoist on their own petard' New York Times) wrote: "With the decision to label a Fox News television reporter a possible 'co-conspirator' in a criminal investigation of a news leak, the Obama administration has moved beyond protecting government secrets to threatening fundamental freedoms of the press to gather news. On May 23, 2013, NBC news confirmed with the Justice Department that Attorney General Holder had personally signed off on what had become known as the "Rosen Case."  This is a fact he denied. On May 15, 2013, Attorney General Holder testified under oath in front of the House Judiciary Committee that he recused himself from the leak investigations to avoid any appearance of a conflict of interest. That turned out to be a lie. He said he was out, but he wasn't. But you know lawyers. It wasn't a lie when he said it. So we have leftist news agencies upset with Trump, yet they will never mention how Obama did it first. To recap; the lefties did it first. It was more than a comment by the president, but an officially sanctioned Justice Department operation, and yet Obama remains the media's darling while the press continues their smear campaign on Trump. You will never see Holder in court for lying. But that's par for this rotten course. You will never hear a media company say they should be impartial. They use the constitution both ways, saying they can report on whatever they like, and then hiding behind the first amendment when it suits them. For a corrupt media, there is no check-and-balance. As soon as they endorse a candidate, all bets are off. We know where you stand. The motivation to pander to a political ideology and further the leftist agenda trumps (all pun intended) any idea of objectivity or fairness. If you look at the record of achievements without factoring in anything else, Mr. Trump is outperforming Mr. Obama in every category. This sort of objectivity however, will never be observed when the media is hell-bent on supporting the liberal cause. Just like how the media reported today that the state of Florida "will have a budget surplus for the next governor," without giving Governor Scott any credit for it. It's far easier for them to misdirect, impugn, throw the "race card," practice hero worship, and generally run afoul of the actual truth. Now here we are with an "anonymous" source in the White House, if that source even exists, and the New York Times is adamant about the credibility of their story, saying it's in the national interest. No, it's in their interest. The national interest is served by objectivity and truth, not bias and disinformation. If it was someone in the prior administration, they would never have run the article, and they would smear anyone that did. They support a 93% negative average on stories regarding the president, support blatantly anti-Trump books like the one coming out today called "Fear," and act like petulant children who forgot their manners. What's really in it for them? Thomas Jefferson said "I have sworn upon the altar of God, eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man." While I don't have that same level of fervor going, I am compelled to call it as I see it.

When Lies aren't Lies to Liars, or, "When Liars aren't Liars to Liars."

He "told viewers erroneously?" He "aired an erroneous Trump report?" Bullshit. He lied. Call it that. When will someone with any sort of balls say "he purposely lied so we fired him. He's a liberal puke jackass and he made us all look like idiots so he got shit-canned." The sniveling liberal media is a big fat problem in this country. When you sling mud on someone and stoke the flames of hate and discontent, you put ideas in people heads. They think they can talk however they please about the elected leader of our country. They spark the urge in the weak-minded democratic drones out there to take shots at conservatives at a baseball game, cry "resist" from the rooftops, urge their stupid followers to confront the opposition party when they're out with their spouses and children, and it all creates a world no one is very proud of or even wants to live in. Stop it. Enough! You assholes don't speak for anybody. Do you really think everyday people think like Maddow, Matthews, Hayes, Acosta, any of those dipshits on the View, or anyone at CNN? Do you really think ordinary Americans don't see the incredibly poisonous and completely unfair bias? Do you really believe that regular Americans believe Weiner, Abedeen, Clinton, Podesta, Comey, Lynch and all those various idiots are pure as the driven snow and Trump is to blame for everything from the Tide Pod challenge to rising Ocean levels? Sure. And Vince Foster really did die from two self-inflicted gunshots to the head!!!!  Go away Brian Ross. Don't let the door hit you in the ass.

When Racism Reduces Itself to Who Said It

https://www.theroot.com/white-people-are-cowards-1826958780
Now here is some truly moronic shit. Yep, dressed-up as a black man with writing skills, I acknowledge he is talented as a writer. That aside, this article is an enormous pile of racist bullshit, sadly condoned and kept online because of who wrote it. Imagine an article entitled "black people are cowards." People would go out of their damned minds. Sure, every white person on earth could stand up and do something about racism, but why should people with no blame for slavery have to do anything? Is it about your idea of required shame? Would anyone recognize the effort anyway? Probably not. If I offered a black man a job, would he take it, or call me a racist and want some sort of reparation hand-out? My family wasn't even in the country before 1900, so what do I have to do with it? If racism really is the all-consuming aspect of your every day, you're doing something wrong. White people are cowards? When will blacks acknowledge the highest crime rate is blacks against other blacks? Then when will they do something about it? Why is it a tragedy if a cop kills a black kid, but not when a black kid kills another black kid? Why did they protest in the shopping district on the Miracle Mile rather than in the neighborhoods where all the crime is happening? White people are cowards? White Men Can't Jump. Imagine a movie entitled "Black Men Can't Swim." People would go out of their minds over that shit. And get your history straight. Muslims started slavery. Blacks in Africa sold-off those they conquered to white slavers. That's right, white men didn't just land in Africa and go rounding people up. Yes, slavery was some vile, repugnant shit that never should of happened, and it did, but guess what...we don't have to live with it. It's over. There is no yoke on you or anyone else. Drop it already. Clean your own house. Straighten-out your own life. Tell people to pull up their pants and work hard, try to get along, and stop blaming ancient history for present day problems. Blame is easy. Stop waiting for Whitey to do it for you. Do you think shaming people will get them to do something? Most, like me, don't feel shame for slavery in America because we had nothing to do with it. White people actually think about race far less than you think. The NFL is over 70% black  but no white people are sniveling about it. It's not a big deal. You can try to paint me with a white brush and say I'm just like the rest but you would be wrong. You were the one that threw the first insult and I can tell you it's not okay. See, in my world, there are two types of people; good people, and assholes. That's it. Which category are you? And stop trusting democrats. They enslave people every day. See for yourself. They give out just enough to keep people dependent on them, but not enough for people to get ahead, climb out of poverty, start their own business, or really be free. That's real evil.
