Hypocrisy – is a part of being human. Human nature is immutable. So occasional lapses into hypocrisy are understandable. That doesn’t entirely excuse hypocrisy. Nor does it inoculate those engaging in it from criticism. 17th Century French writer François de La Rochefoucauld wisely noted: “Hypocrisy is a tribute that vice pays to virtue.” To wit: […]
Imagine you’re mugged. The thief takes all your cash – and vamooses. The police (God bless them) catch the guy. And off to court you go – to ensure the larcenist receives what he’s judicially due. And in court, in his defense, the thief asserts: “If you punish me for stealing money – people will […]
There are very few things in life more annoying than someone who is at once condescending and wrong. Included therein are people who pretend they are helping us – while they’re screwing us. Or even worse: They know we know they’re screwing us – and they continue to pretend they’re helping us while they screw […]
And that means the government participating – where it ordinarily should not. We less government types are loathe to see government do anything on anything of a private sector, commercial nature. The private sector does just fine all by itself, thank you. In fact, it does better and better the less government involves itself. Where […]
The Marxist morons burning, looting and destroying large swaths of our nation – are a lot of really awful things. One thing on which they are absolutely awful? Respect for private property. A flaw they share with many elected Democrats. These masked marauders can’t destroy private property – and/or steal it to establish myriad CHOP/CHAZ […]
Very few people dislike Communist China as much as do I. At least amongst those who haven’t had first-hand experience with its utter brutality. Communism is antithetical to human nature. Thus – Communism is anti-human. Which is why Communism spent the 20th Century murdering 100 million people. Because Communists won’t admit Communism and humanity are […]
I just engaged in said Web search. (Though not using Google’s nigh-monopoly search engine, I’d like to point out.) And here’s what I found: “(In US copyright law) the doctrine that brief excerpts of copyright material may, under certain circumstances, be quoted verbatim for purposes such as criticism, news reporting, teaching, and research, without the […]
Leftists promulgate a whole lot of lies – to advance their anti-Constitution agenda. They have to lie. Because their agenda is awful – and most people hate it. We are inundated with their lies all day, every day. Because the Left controls all the major sectors of American learning and messaging. Government schools, colleges and […]
Even as we type and read, Leftist criminals (please pardon the redundancy) are destroying cities all across our country. Their pattern of operation appears at least in part to be: Break into stores Loot the stores Burn down the stores How very pleasant. The Leftist media – are on the side of the robber-arsonists. How […]
A thought exercise: Someone jacks your car. After tooling around for a bit – the police catch up with him. The cops inform him the government will charge him with Grand Theft Auto. The cops then…release him on his own recognizance. AND let him drive away…in your car. You show up at police headquarters – […]
