Ronald Wilson Reagan Resurrected in Boston

QUOTE OF THE DAY: The time is now to resolve that the basis of a firm and principled foreign policy is one that takes the world as it is and seeks to change it by leadership and example; not by harangue, harassment or wishful thinking. The time is now to say that while we shall seek new friendships and expand and improve others, we shall not do so by breaking our word or casting aside old friends and allies." - Ronald Reagan, in his nomination speech in 1980. Doesn't it sound a lot like what you're hearing in Boston?

Guess who...?

Goshdarnit, now even I'm thinking of voting for John Kerry! Two days ago, I thought he was the most liberal senator in congress and a tough-talking, flip-flopping kneejerk pacifist on the war on terrorism; but jeepers, now I find out that he's Reagan's True Heir.

Which will be his next column.

Okay, I'm knocking off for a bit. Several of you think I'm getting too hot and that I need a drink; who am I to argue with such advice? Take care.

No you're not getting too hot ... look at what Matt Yglesias has to say about Sully:
"Christ. Andrew Sullivan's really drunk the kool-aid and become a kind of partisan leftwing hack masquerading as a conservative."

See...this is why you can't kill Johnny Coldcuts. He is perfect for situations like this one.

I could imagine ol' JCC getting all hacked off and saying something that might be a little "blue" (the pros don't need to work blue, says Mr. Paul Anka)saving you from having to do it, Ace.

For example, in referring to the Human Eclipse (feel free to use that) old JCC might say:

"Hey Oliver Walrus, if your nuts ever drop you might realize you aren't really a walking, talking,typing pussy who spews out illogical and barely literate ramblings on a monthly cycle that puts Auntie Flo to shame. You limp-dicked, filet-o-fish cramming, gravitationally-challenged, elastic waste band wearing, water-retaining, douchebag. Yeah, thats right. Like 'Kryptonite to Stupid'? I wish I could be like a Ham Sandwich to your Mama Cass. Uh-huh. Whatchu talkin' bout Walrus?

Aw, did I hurt your feelings? Take it to the UN, you tweezerdick. Fuckin' fat ass pant-load.

I will give you credit for one thing, though. You have helped me to figure out the answer to the question of how long it would take an infinite amount of monkeys sitting in front of an infinite number of typewriters to type out the entries in your blog. In your case, in between the time the monkeys spent urinating on the keyboard and eating the fleas off each others balls, it would only take one monkey about one minute to duplicate yuour efforts. Asswipe."

Of course, you probably couldn't get away with a stream of invective like that Ace. JCC could though.

Senator? I think you made me pee a little bit with that response.

Good thing I was wearing my Poise Pad™, huh?

Thank you. I so needed that.

I aim to please, Ms. Emma. :)

And look what one of Yglesias' commenters had to say about Sully:

Why does anybody pay attention to Andrew Sullivan? He's only serious about one thing: men fucking other men in the ass. Period. He will blather about conservatism and the war on terror until he finds out that most conservatives are tres uncomfortable with gay marriage. Well, flush that conservatism down the hopper. He will bloviate about religion until he hears that Il Papa isn't down with men getting jiggy together. Oops! Time to toss holy mother church over the rail.
And this latest discovery of the inherent conservatism of Kerry/Edwards? This particular revelation (with all the smoke and mirrors of how he never knew they could be so centrist)oddly has come about...just as Bush gets on board with the FMA. Get real.
I suppose if one has an interest in men fucking other men in the ass, one could profitably read Sullivan's screeds. On any other subject, forget it.

Succinctly put, almost good enough to have come from Johnny Coldcuts or the Senator.

Funniest thing I've read about the Virginia mess. Back when they were hustling the referendum through the assembly both Senators, Warner and Kaine, advised them to go slow and play by the rules. Louise Lucas said she respected them but didn't need advice from the "cuck chair" in the corner. The gerrymandering was overturned and Louise is heading for the big house. Edward G. Robinson voice "where's your cuck now?"

"It's f**king f**ked."
-- reportedly a genuine comment offered by a "senior Labour source"
Correction: I wrote that Labour is losing 88% (now 87%) of the seats it is "defending." I think that's wrong. The right way to say it is the seats they are contesting -- that is, they don't necessarily already hold these seats, but they have put up a candidate to run for the seat. It's still very bad but not as bad as losing 87% of the seats they already held.

🚨ED MILIBAND [a Minister in Starmer's government] SAYS KEIR STARMER WILL RESIGN AS PRIME MINISTER

He has reportedly reassured Labour MP's that Starmer will be resigning following the disastrous results tonight

It's over
"The end of the two party system in the UK" as first the Fake Conservatives and now Labour chooses political suicide rather than simply STOPPING THE INVASION
Incidentally, the only reason this didn't already happen in the US is because of the Very Bad Orange Man (who is right on 85% of all policy calls and extremely, existentially right on 15% of them)
No political party that is NOT also a doomsday religious cult would EVER choose a cataclysmic loss -- and possible extinction as a party -- to support a toxically unpopular favoritism of NON-CITIZEN ILLEGAL MIGRANTS over actual citizen voters.

Only a cult does this.
Now they've lost 84%.
Annunziata Rees-Mogg
@zatzi
If this continues Labour loses 2,148 seats tonight.

That is much worse than the worst case predictions I’ve seen.

Cataclysmic

Update: They've now lost 88% of the seats they're defending. As I mentioned earlier, I think I heard that London will not bail them out, as many of those Labour seats will probably flip to "Muslim Independent" or Green. Detroit's 5am vote will not save them.
Yup, Labour is losing 80% of its seats...

@TheBritLad

🚨 BREAKING: Labour have lost 80% of all seats contested as of 2:25 AM.<
br> If this continues, Keir Starmer will be out of office next week.

Reform has surged and projected to pick up between 1700-2100 seats.


Wow, up to 1700-2100 seats. It's not incredible that this is happening. It's incredible that the Davos crowd is so absolutely determined to privilege Muslim "migrants" over the actual native population who elects them, no matter how loudly the natives scream that they want to be prioritized, that they will gladly self-extinguish as a party rather than simply representing the interests of their own voters. Astonishing.
Remember, when they call other people "cultists" -- they are the ones so imprisoned in their social reinforcement and discipline bubbles that they will choose political death rather than dare upset the Karen Enforcement Officers of their cult.
Update: Now they've lost 83% of the seats they were defending.

@DPJHodges

Reform are basically wiping Labour out in the North. It's not a defeat. It's not even a rout. Labour are simply ceasing to exist.


Nick Lowles
@lowles_nick

Tonight’s results are calamitous for Labour. Not just for Keir Starmer's leadership, but for the very future of the party
STARMERGEDDON: In early returns, Reform gains 135 seats, Labour loses 90, the Fake Conservatives lose 36 (and I didn't even know they could fall any further), the Lib Dems lose 4, and the Greens gain 6. Note that the only other party gaining seats is the Greens and they're only gaining a handful of seats.
Update: Reform now up 145, Labour down 98.
Labour projected to lose Wales -- where they've ruled for 27 years.
Fulton County Georgia just discovered 400 boxes of ballots for Labour
Update: REF +156, LAB -107, CON -45
Brutal: In four out of five council seats where Labour is defending, they've lost. 80%.
I'm sure it's not this simple, but Reform is straight taking Labour's and the "Conservatives'" seats. They've lost almost exactly what Reform gained. If understand this right (and warning, I probably don't), all of London's council seats are up for election, and Labour might lose hugely there, as their old voters abandon them for Reform, Muslim Indenpendents, and the Greens.
REF +190, LAB -134, CON -56.
Updates on the Labour collapse in council elections -- which wags are calling #Starmergeddon -- from Beege Welborne. There are about 5000 seats up for grabs, Labour is expected to lose 1,800, Reform will probably gain 1,580, up from... zero. So this would be more than that.
People claim that while Labour has adopted the Sharia Agenda to appeal to the million Muslims it allowed to migrate to the country, those voters are ditching Labour to vote for the Muslim Independent Party or the Greens. Delicious. This shadenfreude is going straight to my thighs.
Oh, and if Starmer loses about as badly as expected, Labour will toss him out of a window Braveheart style and replace him. He will announce he is resigning to spend more time with his Gay Ukrainian Male Prostitutes.
Media bias and senationalism are as old as, well, the media:
spidermanthreatormenace.jpg

That was written by Denny O'Neill and illustrated by, get this, Frank Miller. Editor to the Stars Jim Shooter was in charge at the time.
I always thought the gag was original to the comic book, but in fact the "Threat or Menace" headline was a satirical joke about media bias and sensationalism for a long while. The Harvard Lampoon used it in a parody of Life magazine: "Flying Saucers: Threat or Menace?"
