Another one out

What a flaming smug idiot.  I regret ever promoting him.
Sailer and his bigoted demagogic cohort… Really, so called conservatives will be the death of this country.  With friends like this …&;  yes really.
He actually think he’s the first who thought of this [monumentally stupid]  idea. Ha.
Oh, and P.S., a tiny aside: to have me on [...]

On this Labor Day…

…, through few connected clicks, I came to this telling quote by a rabid dog of socialism K. Olbermann:
This becomes necessary [...] to remind everybody to walk softly and carry a big popsicle, and most particularly to save this nation from the Oligarhy of The Stupid (bold is mine-ETat).
Charming. Now we know what our benevolent [...]

In the breadline

[in response to Perry's post here]
You reminded me of the time my family was on public assistance. It was 4 months after we immigrated into the country, 17years ago, our hosting agency’s [charity] assistance was over, and both me and my then husband were occupied at re-training courses. Our whole capital ($600 that we were [...]

From comment to previous post

I started to write a reply to a friend’s comment to previous post, then it became too long and I decided to make a post out of it.
[First, the comment itself].

Mrs. Crocodile

Да что ж это, гражданки,  делается?
Тяжела жизнь Шахерeзады: мало что выскрёбываешь горсти сверкающих историй из душевного ручья, для услаждения бесталанного собрания, ещё и образу соответствуй.  Какое восхитительное лёгкое дыхание надо иметь, чтобы простить и посмеяться! Завидую. Дыханию.

Voluntary surrender

There is a definite pattern in the way women on the left talk about Obamas – both of them, but especially about Michelle O. They call her”accomplished”, “successful”, even “educated” (as if it some sort of a marvel…sounds a bit condescending to me…one might even say-gash-racist! But I digress).

High school politics

Sonic Charmer made a series of illuminating observations lately, in the last post especially. A pleasure to see the working of mind used to mathematical abstraction applying itself to political reality: no rhetorical obfuscation allowed, no demagogy. Unexpected connections – of a kind that once showed, you can’t believe you didn’t see before, they are [...]

“Whatever it takes”

There is a peculiar rhetorical weapon used in situations that – logically – would have an observer to expect a curse instead. It’s sanctimony – used in lieu of an insult.
Today’s loot from my online architecture group on LinkedIn (summary):
Participant M:  certified architect, registered in 5 states, licensed by national professional organizations as Contractor and [...]

Netiquette

The need for rules of engagement often evolves with development of the human activity. Internet interaction is not an exception. In some venues the realization comes earlier, in some – later; newbies are often baffled at the reaction they get to their unreserved rants – especially the ones that came to think of the net [...]
