The Morning Rant

"The point is, they're not arguing their case, they're attempting to not have to actually argue their position. Just as terrorists have no courage and no honor, progressives have no argument and no case. They don't want to discuss, they just want everybody else to shut up. This is the basis of #MeToo and #BlackLivesMatter. Using Hoff and Thunburg as proxies is an attempt to bypass rational discussion. Progressives really like the concept of Absolute Moral Authority and they love to bring out their Absolute Moral Authorities to tell you to shut up. In a way, they're like Catholic saints. They're holy and unassailable. Of course, Catholic saints were usually humble and lived lives of service and self-denial, neither of which apply to Thunburg or Hogg, who are being packed into airplanes and jetted around the globe to recite words that others have told them to say.

"I suppose it would be bad manners to ask about what kind of carbon footprint all of these airplane flights are leaving behind. Or, more importantly, who is paying for them to run around wielding their Absolute Moral Authority like a club.

You know, I think what we need is a group of people whose job it is to ask such questions, investigate them, you know, dig deep and get to the truth of the matter, and then report what they find out, so we could stay informed. Wouldn't that be great?"

For the 'Ettes:

Monday's celebs: This weekend, Mrs. Muse and I were watching the Bogart/Bacall film To Have and To Have Not (1944). Bacall was, of course, the main love interest, but Dolores Moran had a small role, and I think she was way more beautiful than Bacall. I had never seen her before. Also appearing in THATHN is George Bailey's bartender who, in the alternate universe town of Potterville cooked up by Clarence the apprentice angel, served hard drinks for men who wanted to get drunk fast, Sheldon Leonard.
