Jewish Comedy In The Confederacy

OK, I'm spoiling something I wanted to post en toto, but I just have to do it.I've been playing around with the new version of ChatGPT and I absolutely love it for writing goofy fiction. Wife kitteh had a sleepover with one of the grandkittens, so while she slept with the grandkitten, I took 90 minutes and wrote what started out as a horror story, but turned into a comedy.The setting is Sherman's army in January 1865 near Savannah. The Union soldiers wake up one morning to find that everything is back to the way it was in 1860. There are no Confederate soldiers and, in fact, no Confederacy at all. Everyone is friendly and welcoming except the slaves. The white southerners act like nothing ever happened. Southerners who the[...]

Rational Vs Irrational

Many on the right, particularly Tucker Carlson, are fully convinced that the migrant crisis across the West is being driven by them. They are the oligarchs, the globalists, the shadowy cabal of multinational corporation leaders and they are motivated by profits.Tucker and the others are wrong. The globalists may at one time have been leading the charge, but now the movement is dominated by crazy cat ladies and their cultural simps.I asked ChatGPT why a globalist motivated by profit might want to encourage mass migration from the Third World to the West. I asked what metrics might be used to see if it was working. Here's its summary. Its long form was excellent, but I won't excerpt it here. If you want to see the full[...]

A very difficult April 1980 for President Carter

Silvio Canto, Jr.

        If you remember late April 1980, then you recall two huge front page stories that rocked the Carter presidency.    First, it was Mariel and the arrival of 100,000 Cubans to the US. It was a boat-lift like no other and became very controversial, specially with then Governor Clinton of Arkansas who faced very hostile voters.    Second, it was Iran and the on-going story about US diplomats held hostage when the US Embassy was attacked the previous November.    On another front, President Carter approved a mission to go into Iran and rescue the hostages.    Unfortunately, he had to address the nation a few days later to tell us what went[...]

What Ails Us - But First Some Background

Someone close to me asked me to give an overall take on the current state of politics and the prospects for our future. I thought to answer, but first want to explain how I analyze the political landscape.Here are some key principles that are worth repeating because we seem to forget them.1. A chicken is an eggs way of making another egg.      To influence the the size and numbers of your chickens, manage egg production and consumption. Demographics are destiny.2. Eggs are rare, sperm is plentiful.      Combined with 1 above, the most important variable component of demographic destiny is female reproductive behavior and strategies.3. Testosterone confers greater strength and aggression[...]

Bezos vs Burnham - Robber Baron vs Managers

 Well not really; and not just because Burnham isn't a household name. James Burnham authored key insights on "managerialism" and predicted its eventual triumph over capitalism in his 1941 book "The Managerial Revolution," summarized here, but skip ahead 5 minutes (this is a great podcast). George Orwell provided this summary in 1943.Capitalism is disappearing, but Socialism is not replacing it. What is now arising is a new kind of planned, centralized society which will be neither capitalist nor, in any accepted sense of the word, democratic. The rulers of this new society will be the people who effectively control the means of production: that is, business executives, technicians, bureaucrats and soldiers,[...]

Depopulation

I meet a lot of very cool 30-ish people who dont seem to be on the path to having kids. Huge mistake. Kids are awesome.Its the circle of life. Its meant to be. Whether you believe in God or not, nature wants you to have kids.All your ancestors had children. Youre going to end a family tradition of millions of years because its inconvenient for your current lifestyle?

Natural Born Citizen Definition

Doo Doo Econ
1/19/2016 6:08:58 PM

    Once again Americans are facing questions about the definition of a Natural Born Citizen (NBC).This is the simple and indisputable definition: Two citizens who have a child, naturally create a new citizen. This is a Natural Born Citizen.There is absolutely no expert either legal or historical who will argue to the contrary. They may argue to include additional citizens, but this is the core of the definition.Two people who have a child in a location, have a citizen who is native to that land. This is a Native Born Citizen. Thus, terms like "Native American" which imply a location and not an allegiance to a country.A person can be both Natural Born and Native Born, or in the United States we also have Naturalized[...]

Obama Fuels Eternal Islamic War on America

                Do you remember the headlines when Obama apparently declared America a Muslim country on French television?    Taken from an Islamic perspective this statement is dangerous. It sounds as if the President of the United States sees America is a Muslim nation. When you consider translations, this may presented to the masses as exactly that, American President Hussein (an exclusively Islamic name)  Obama declares America to be Islamic. Thus America would be "al-Islam", or territory which may never be ceded to non-Muslims.Semantics, right? Over-reaction, right?Except, this is a long standing meme from not only the President, but also his staffers.   [...]

And Where a Salon Scribe Gets a Tad Out of His Swim Lane

Over the weekend, Salon writer, DAVID MASCIOTRA, caused quite a dust-up on social media with his own salute to the troops ahead of Veterans Day . Here is the headline, followed by the sub-headline and then followed by the first paragraph of the piece:You dont protect my freedom: Our childish insistence on calling soldiers heroes deadens real democracyIt's been 70 years since we fought a war about freedom. Forced troop worship and compulsory patriotism must endPut a man in uniform, preferably a white man, give him a gun, and Americans will worship him. It is a particularly childish trait, of a childlike culture, that insists on anointing all active military members and police officers as heroes.If you desire, you can read it[...]

Football rules changes...? You've come to the right place

Dean
1/31/2015 2:04:56 PM

    Theres no denying that over the last few decades most all on-field rules changes made by the NFL have been exercises in increasing offense and scoring. This has created an arms race in a sense where the pendulum swings back and forth between the NFL offenses and NFL defenses whereby the offenses get aided by rules changes and the defenses counter with a combination of innovative schemes and superior athletes. To wit, for years, its been conventional wisdom that the best athletes in the world were in the NBA. Now days, we would add NFL defensive backs and possibly outside linebackers/rush ends into that mix (you dont think dudes like Richard Sherman, Darrelle Revis and J.J. Watt can ball a little?).But[...]
