It's Fraud-O-bots All The Way Down

Is Obama Using Anti-Gun Spambots? | Power Line: "Stockman said that in response to Obama’s call for people to tweet their congressman in support of gun control legislation, he received just 16 tweets. But he said all of these messages were identical, and that a closer look at them revealed that only six were from real people.

“The other 10 are fake, computer-generated spambots,” his office said in a press release. As evidence, he said these 10 tweets use default graphics and names, and have not engaged in any interaction with other people. Two of the tweets were sent at nearly the same time, and both follow just one person: Brad Schenck, Obama’s former digital strategist."

COTD: Is Tae Kwon Do Really The Solution?

Colorado Governor Isn’t Sold on Magazine Capacity Limit After Huge Public Fallout:
"UnapologeticallyAmerican PERMALINK
February 23, 2013 12:18 PM EST
My daughter was attacked on the campus of UCCS. Her dorm room should have been considered a “safe zone” until someone forced their way into her room. She didn’t have a gun, but did have 3 years of Tae Kwon Do, and the would-be rapist elected that the fight wasn’t worth it and left. But not before he ripped her shirt/bra and exposed her breast. Campus police didn’t do anything either since he actually didn’t rape her, and it would be his word against hers. Within one semester, she left school. She wasn’t raped, but the attack did affect her. She never did finish school. Rep. Joe Salazar, you obviously don’t have teen/adult daughters and are totally clueless."
Umm, no. But some different leaks from the perp than he was planning would have been.

It's Not Gun Control They Want, It's PEOPLE CONTROL

Why Is This Month-Old Clip of an Ex-Secret Service Agent Suddenly Going Viral? | TheBlaze.com: "Dan Bongino lost his race for the U.S. Senate last Fall and the former Secret Service agent was finally closing up shop on his campaign offices when his phone started ringing like crazy. Television and radio shows were calling to ask Dan if he was free… free to talk about this brief speech he gave on January 19th at a Guns Across America rally in Annapolis Maryland.

Summer Skiing

The world's first wave skier | Orange UK: "A Californian man has invented a new extreme sport, surfing on waves up to 30ft high - on a pair of water skis.

Chuck Patterson, 43, has combined his talents as a professional skier and surfer to become the world's first 'wave skier'.

In contrast to water skiers, who are always towed by a speedboat, wave skiing invoves being released at the peak of a wave to ski 'freestyle'.

After letting go of the rope from the jet ski, Mr Patterson reaches speeds of around 30mph as he drops off the huge waves."

Golfing For The Children

For the First Time in My Life, I Am Ashamed of My Country - The Rush Limbaugh Show: "Because "in any enterprise, the chief executive is ultimately accountable for success and failure. Sure, blame Congress -- castigate all 535 lawmakers, or the roughly half you hate. But there is only one president. Even if he's right on the merits, Obama may be on the wrong side of history. Fair or not, the president owns this mess." Mr. Fournier, I disagree with you. He doesn't. That is the whole point. The president does not own this mess. His approval rating wouldn't be 55% if he owned this mess.  
 He is not governing, Mr. Fournier. You've stumbled into this and I'm here to alert you how right you are. You don't even know it. He's not governing. It's all about politics. Congress is being blamed for this. The Republicans are being blamed. Obama is just the outsider trying to fix it all. He's the guy trying to compromise. He even went out and played golf to try to compromise! He even went out and played golf with Tiger Woods to try to compromise, and still the Republicans resist."
And why does everyone think he's golfing for the children? Why because we live on Planet Epsilon:
Expecting Deltas to know what liberty is! And now expecting them to understand Othello! My good boy!
Marooned here in fact...

And you know things are bad when Rush seems to be catching on.  Of course, there' a different Rush that has understood it for a very long time.

Related: David Hogberg: Can We Be Really Hard-Headed About Pre-School? “What if there is nothing the government can do for low-income children to improve their educational performance? That’s a question that needs asking. . . . In short, the practices that endow children with lasting educational benefits begin at home. Low-income families are less likely to engage in those practices. And the research on Head Start shows that there is not much these programs can do to overcome what isn’t present in the home.”

More Colo. Dem Rape Defense Advice: Just Learn Judo!

More Colo. Dem rape advice: ‘Buddy system’ is a better alternative to guns | Twitchy: "Is there something in the water out there in Colorado? Is it the altitude? Last Friday, Rep. Joe Salazar moronically suggested that women are too emotional to be trusted with guns for self-defense and recommended protection like whistles and call boxes to potential rape victims. As it turns out, Salazar isn’t the only Colorado Democrat guilty of speaking while stupid. At that same debate, Rep. Paul Rosenthal proposed some grade-A, surefire alternatives to shooting a rapist:"
After the first Colorado Democrat moron said this kind of crap I resolved to figure out how to defeat the Democrat morons who voted for these infringements on the 2nd Amendment. After further thought, I'm instead going to start an initiative to require every year of "service" in elected office by anyone who infringes on the Bill of Rights in any fashion whatsoever to be accompanied by a matching year in prison with a cellmate named "Tiny".

Perhaps then they might gain some perspective on how they truly live in a "bourgeois illusion bred of money and security". It's clear to me that some true "real world" experiences are the only way they will ever learn.

But, in reality, we live in what may best be called the Age of Bernanke. Essentially, Obamaism increasingly serves as a front for the big-money interests who benefit from the Federal Reserve’s largesse and interest rate policies; progressive rhetoric serves as the beard for royalist results.”"

Nothing New Under The Sun -- Including Othello

Ace of Spades HQ: "There is nothing, nothing new under the sun. Note the plan of action, and the approval of Stalin.

And yes, that Harold L. Ickes, FDR's Sec Interior, is the father of Harold M. Ickes, Bill Clinton's Deputy Chief of Staff. Bill Clinton isn't the focus of big government evil in the world today, it's just pedigree and stuff regarding Democrats."

Go here and scroll down so you can read it in detail.

Gotta luv those low information voters. They're the stuff the cycles of history -- and recurring collectivist power grabs -- are made of.

And yes, the bankers should be in jail too since they're the one's who keep funding this recurring garbage.  The bankers are only too happy to be part of history's ongoing "high and the low against the middle" nightmare.

I recently finished re-reading "Brave New World" for the second time as well as "1984" for the Nth and "Atlas Shrugged" from the speech to the end for the umpteenth time (I've "only" read that one four times cover to cover).

One of the core unappreciated themes in all of them -- and one our "betters" have skillfully worked to bury -- is that of the "high and low against the aspiring middle".  The "high" brainwash the "low" ("proles" in 1984 or Deltas/Epsilons in BNW) to the point where rational argument about reality from individual thinkers and innovators (who most often rise from the ranks of the "low" of course) bounces off of the "low" like pebbles off of armor.

My favorite quote on this from BNW is when "world controller" Mustapha Mond scofs at John "Mr." Savage: "Expecting Deltas to know what Liberty is! And now expecting them to understand Othello! My good boy!".

And I'll pass over the opportunities for comparative analysis of Othello and our current God King for now...
