“As a Buddhist, this is beautiful. Christians really do need to stand up and reclaim Christmas because big business and human greed have transformed a spiritual beautiful day into a month long binge eating and booze fest, and its quite simply very sad, and I say this as a Buddhist.”
I’m thinking (with slight apology to my Tribe Readers) that the slogan for this reclamation effort should be: “Next Year In Bethlehem”.
And I say this as an atheist.
From the CEOs of Southwest and American, testifying during some Congressional hearing:
“I think the case is very strong that masks don’t add much, if anything, in the air cabin environment. It is very safe and very high quality compared to any other indoor setting. High-grade HEPA air filters on planes capture virtually all airborne contamination and air quality is helped by how frequently cabin air is exchanged with fresh air from outside the cabin.”
So much for masking policies on airliners.
From Taki:
When the commies blew up my father’s factories following the war—he had shut them down for four years—he came to America and became a shipowner. Little ole me followed a few years later.
The place was paradise for the haves and close to paradise for the have-nots. It now reminds me a bit of immediate postwar Europe.
A place full of violent men seeking retribution, displaced persons complaining of having gotten a raw deal, and opportunist politicians seeking to gain an edge.
And it’s all Thomas Jefferson’s fault.
Sounds about right.
Some asswipe college president said this, when his whales wealthy alumni hit back at his university’s woke agenda:
“We’re living in an environment where people on both sides, right and left, are engaged in a culture war and they want to use universities,” he said. “I don’t find that beneficial to our mission and I’m not interested in being a participant in it.”
Whereupon Insty’s Bob Shipley responded to this bullshit with our quote of the day:
“Universities have been waging a one-way culture war on free speech, due process, and other fundamental rights (along with many other things) for decades. They don’t get to pretend they’re not part of it when the other side finally starts firing back.”
And there are a couple links at Insty’s for other alumni of similar mind to join in the fight.
Tsk, tsk… so young, and yet so cynical.
From Jed Babbin:
“The only reasons [Kyle Rittenhouse] was acquitted are because the system is racist and because America needs stricter gun control laws.”
Do they need any more? Iniquity as far as the eye can see…
…not that far, considering their Leftist myopia.
