Pathetic White People

Honestly...



Makes me so embarrassed to be white.

Heads Versus Books

From Larry Elder via Robert Spencer. The beginning gives you the basic gist:

What happens when an Australian Muslim cleric calls for the beheading of a Dutch politician?

Not much.

What happens when an American pastor no one ever heard of threatens to burn a Koran?

It ignites an international outcry.

Well honestly, what media outlet wants to report a "dog bites man" story? A Muslim threatening to behead someone is just that.

Maybe it has to do with absorption. Those Dutch people can absorb the loss of a politician like Geert Wilders, but the Muslims cannot absorb the loss of a few books which the Saudi government gives away for free.

Red Hot

I don't often feel compelled to post, but I want to post today about something I saw on "Meet the Press", NBC's entry into the Sunday morning major network Tower of Babel fest. Former Obama administration honcho Anita Dunn was on the round table...remember her? Her favorite political philosopher is Mao Tse Tung:

Anita got fired by the administration after that clip showed up on youtube. Still, Anita is apparently one of the very few people in the country whose insights into the political process are valuable enough to be included in NBC's round table. She certainly looked the part of Washington insider, with expensively cut and colored hair and pearl jewelry. She even managed not to stick her tongue out every 5 seconds, perhaps having dialed down on the psychotropic meds.

Except the color of Anita's suit was notable ... it was solid RED. Anita was wearing a solid red suit. Anita, whose claim to fame is that she was fired for praising Mao, chose to pull out of her closet a SOLID RED SUIT to wear on national television. NBC apparently didn't have a problem with that. It's interesting, because in all my years of shopping for women's suits, I'd have had a really hard time finding one that was solid, fire-engine RED. And given the chance to wear one on TV, mere months after I had been excoriated for fetishizing Chairman Mao, I probably would have refrained from doing so ... unless I were a bottomless pit of seething, unadulterated, hostile, Mao-loving rage inside, that is.

That kind of rage leads to interesting places, as I'm sure any survivor of Mao's RED China could tell us.
