New York Times to Fire Fighters: Drop DeadThe New York Times is in a spitting snit over NY fire fighters being used to "sell" programs, issues, and candidates: It's time to wonder whether New York's Bravest are overexposed and overexploited. You can imagine my shock and suprise, then, when I noted that the Times had dutifully reported the so-called "Jersey Girls" liberal claque's endorsement of John Kerry, and yet, for the life of me, I have not yet been able to find Gail Collins telling them to mind their own business and go back to their real jobs (vacuuming, bakin' cookies, watching Dr. Phil, etc.) I'm sure that the New York Times editorial page will chastise the Jersey Girls for using their public sympathy to influence debates in which they have no genuine expertise. Any. Minute. Now. posted by Ace at 03:21 PM
CommentsFirefighters and cops have jobs that involve medium to low-hazard deadly risk. Less risky than truck-driving, traveling salesmen, commercial fishers, ironworkers, loggers, helicopter pilots, farmers, oil rig workers, heavy construction, and so on. And get huge "line of duty" benefits denied soldiers and others in gov't and private industry. Even the NYTimes gets it right now and then. It is as wrong for firefighters to whore themselves out advertising for store promotions, restaurants where they get freebies as it would be for an active duty soldier trading in on his uniform to sell used cars in battle gear. I blame long-time cop-worshipper Giuliani for creating a 9/11 Victim's Heros vs. Zeros mentality. "They rush towards danger, while cowardly ordinary zero citizens trying to flee can only genuflect in awe of their heroism". As for the "Jersey Girls", Dorothy Rabinowitz gave a good essay on how they are really perceived in the NYC metro area - self-promoting media whores out to push their personal agenda, shouldering aside other victim's families. The two worst are Kristin Breitweiser, Monica "Bush and Giuliani are Murderers" Gabrielle, and Sally Regenhard, also known as Sally Blowhard. http://www.opinionjournal.com/medialog/?id=110004950 Does the Times care how deeply these few self-promoting bitches are reviled in the NYC Metro area, and by many of their fellow 9/11 families? Of course not! Journalistic integrity in impartial reporting 3 years after 9/11 is outside the NYTimes political agenda sphere. Hence their promotion of Kerry, claiming the Jersey Girls (5 of 2,782 victims) are the true spokespersons of 9/11, firefighters as America's Greatest Heroes, and David Libeskind as the "Healing Architect of America". The NYTimes is as trustworthy as CBS...no maybe more, since they lie daily.

Oh no! Hamas' de facto press agent at the UN complains that she can't use her credit cards or rent a card now that she's been sanctioned as a terrorist operative
Why does this keep happening to members of the "political organization" (per Tucker Carlson) of Hamas?!?!
Tucker Carlson claims that it's weird that Ted Cruz is interested in the massacre of Christians by Nigerian Muslims, because he has "no track record of being interested in Christians," then blows off the massacre of Christians by Nigerian Muslims, saying it might or might not be a real concern
Tucker Carlson enjoys using the left-wing tactic of "Tactical Ignorance" to avoid taking positions on topics. Is Hamas really a terrorist organization? Tucker can't say. He hasn't looked into it enough, but "it seems like a political organization to me." Are Muslims slaughtering Christians in Nigeria? Again, Tucker just doesn't know. He hasn't examined the evidence yet. He knows every Palestinian Christian who said he was blocked from visiting holy sites in Bethlehem, but he just hasn't had the time to look into the mass slaughter of Christians in Nigeria that has been going on since (checks watch) 2009. He doesn't know, so he can't offer an opinion. Wouldn't be prudent, you know? Don't rush him! He'll sift through the evidence at some point in the future and render an opinion sometime around 2044. Of course, if you need an opinion on Jewish Perfidy, he has all the facts at his fingertips and can give you a fully informed opinion pronto. Say, have you ever heard of the USS Liberty incident...? You'd think that the main issue for Tucker Carlson, who pretends to be so deeply concerned about Palestinian Christians being bullied by Jews in Israel (supposedly), would be the massacre of 185,000 Christians in Nigeria itself. But no, his main problem is that Ted Cruz is talking about it, "who has no track record of being interested in Christians at all." And then he just shrugs as to whether this is even a real issue or not. Whatever we do we must never "divide the right," huh? Tucker is attacking Ted Cruz for bringing the issue up because he's acting as an apologist for Jihadism, and he can't cleanly admit that Jihadists are killing any Christians, anywhere. There is no daylight between him and CAIR at this point. One might conclude that Tucker Carlson himself isn't interested in the plight of Christians -- except as they can be used as a cudgel to attack Jews. Just gonna ask an Interesting Question myself -- why is it that Tucker Carlson's arguments all track with those shit out by Qatarian propaganda agents and the far left? That if Jews crush an ant underfoot it is worldwide news, but when Muslims slaughter Christians it elicits not even a vigorous shrug?
Garth Merenghi is interviewed by the only man who can fathom his ineffable brilliance -- Garth Merenghi
From the comments: I once glimpsed Garth in the penumbra betwixt my wake and sleep. He was in my dream, standing afar, not looking my way, nor did he acknowledge me. But I felt seen. And that's when I knew I was a traveler on the right path. I'm glad he's still with us. Now that's some Merenghian prose. Garth Merenghi on the writer's craft Greetings, Traveler. If you still have not experienced Garth Merenghi -- Author, Dream-weaver, Visionary, plus Actor -- the six episodes of his Darkplace are still available on YouTube and supposedly upscaled to HD. (Viewing it now, it doesn't appeared upscaled for shit.) I think the second episode, "Hell Hath Fury," is the best by a good margin. Try to at least watch through to that one. It's Mereghi's incisive but nuanced take on sexism.
Update on Scott Adams:
Scott Adams had approval for this cancer drug but they hadn't scheduled him to get it. He was taking a turn for the worse. Trump had told him to call if he needed anything, so he did. Talked to Don Jr (who is in Africa) , then RFK Jr, then Dr Oz. Someone talked to Kaiser and he was scheduled. Shouldn't have needed it but he did and he says it saved his life.
Funny retro kid costumes, thanks to SMH
Good to see people honoring Lamont the Big Dummy
Four hours of retro Halloween commercials and specials
The first short is the original 1996 appearance of "Sam," the dangerous undead trick-or-treater from Trick r' Treat.
ICYMI: Australian journalist actually presses Kamala Harris when she repeatedly dodges questions about Biden's mental fitness
Kamala admits she didn't have the stamina to run for president, while continuing to insist he had the mental capacity to serve as president. He was too frail to run but perfectly strong enough to govern. Yeah sure whatever lying whore.
On Wednesday, we'll see the "Beaver Super-Moon." Which sounds hot.
Full Episode: The Hardy Boys (and Nancy Drew) Meet Dracula
I don't remember this show, except for remembering that Nancy Drew was hot and the opening credits were foreboding and exicting
According to Grok, Latrine John-Pissoir has never failed to mention she is "black" (or "queer") during her book interviews
She may not know what the hell her book is about, but she definitely knows that "every day I wake up black and queer." Join the club, sister!
Schmoll: 53% of New Jersey likely voters say their neighbors are voting for Ciattarelli, while 47% say the cheater/grifter Mikie Sherrill
The "who do you think your neighbors are voting for" question is designed to avoid the Shy Tory problem, wherein conservative people lie to schmollsters because they don't want to go on record with a likely left-winger telling them who they're really voting for. So instead the question is who do you think your neighbors are voting for, so people can talk about who they themselves support without actually having to admit it to a left-wing rando stranger recording their answers on the phone.
