— Gabriel Malor

Happy Monday.

On Friday, while almost nobody was around to see it and object, the cowards of the WaPo editorial board played the race card to the max. Not only did they lack the stones to do this on a day when people actually read the paper, but they decided that they couldn't really call opposition to Amb. Rice racist, so they added a question mark to soften the accusation. And, of course, because it was written by "the editorial board," no one had to sign their own name to this garbage. Convenient.

3 Good Morning Morons.  Today is Monday, November 26, 2012.  On this day in 1922 Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon became the first to enter the tomb of King Tutankhamen (Tut) since it was sealed in 1323 B.C.

4 More Republican Senators ready to sell us out on tax increases.  What is the problem with understanding we did not get here by decreasing taxes.  Just reset the budget for all departments to 2008 levels or shut it down.

16 Are Senate Republicans growing some

I'm a little unclear on this whole thing.  While it usually takes 67 votes to change the rules, if Reid really means this, can't he just get all Dems to vote for it?  IOW, the Pubs can't really stop this can they?

At the beginning of the term when rules are initially set it can be done with 51 votes.  Once set though and the term begins it takes 67 votes to change it unless they employ the so-called "nuclear option".

23 16 Posted by: pep at November 26, 2012 07:04 AM (YXmuI) Obamacare was passed in the Senate via budget reconciliation which required only a simple majority and, as I understood it, was completely against the rules. You will also recall the so-called Slaughter Rule in the House where they almost got away with passing it there the first time by voting on an amendment and deeming the rest of the bill passed by that vote. A long-winded way of saying that the Dems view is that whatever we say the rules are in order to ram something down the peoples' throats is what they will be. They are now openly without any restraint or scruples and we are in a post-Constitutional country.

24 The race card has no max. It has no limit and will never be maxed out; it is only growing more powerful.

It must be aggressively challenged and cut up. Otherwise things are only going to get worse and worse.

I keep saying this because it keeps being true. There are so many liberal mass media uses of the race card current now that it would probably be impossible to link even a fraction of them without being banned for spamming.

Obviously the experts in the Democratic / liberal mass media machine that just won the election think that increasingly anti-White hate speech plays to their advantage. I see no reason to assume they are wrong.

I agree completely.  I'm just trying to ascertain if there is really any hope of stopping this.  I assume there isn't, because Reid wouldn't have raised such an inflammatory suggestion otherwise.  He's really into displays of his power, and doesn't care a whit about anything else.

Obamacare itself was passed Dec 24th while the Dems still had 60 votes in the Senate.  The "fix" which involved budget matters was passed with "reconciliation". 


Reconciliation can ONLY be used for budget matters which decrease the deficit. However, since this one increases the deficit it will automatically expire in 10 years.  This is why the "Bush Tax Cuts" were set to expire originally and have had to be renewed every time.


Google the "Byrd Rule".

It's a good thing that the government doesn't use the two things that would really tell the story of inflation - Food and Fuel.

Since Obama has been elected food prices on most of the items I buy have risen 25%. The weekly bill which was around $60.00 four years ago is now over 80.00.

The price of fuel has risen  nearly 50% since Obama has come to power.


This country is heading for a grand fall and we will be lucky to survive it.

Politically, words hurt you. The sticks and stones follow. Whites didn't flee Detroit because they felt safe there. Liberal mass media anti-White speech is the theory; riots, rapes, muggings and murders are the practice.

27 Everybody talks about how biased they are, and how their time is coming, but then they still genuflect in front of their pronouncements.
-
They must be aggressively challenged as anti-White, which they are.

Also, it's important to repeal the Hollywood tax cuts, get ride of the "endless free money" intellectual property laws, and generally follow Instapundit's advice on the media. Everything he's saying is good sense.

Predicting that the mass media's day will end, or shutting up (which is what ignoring it amounts to) does nothing.

27 Either ignore them, or acknowledge that they still hold sway over your lives and your opinions.
-
Of course they still hold sway. They always will till they are aggressively and continually challenged as the anti-White bigots they are, and until they are deprived of their state monopoly free money.

42 I, for one, welcome the recognition by the WaPo that all people are now to be judged solely by their skin color, their perceived gender and the place of their birth.   I mean, it's so messy and difficult to consider each person as an individual and make icky icky icky value judgments about that person based on zir's actual abilities, actions and accomplishments.   The WaPo Method makes things much, much easier.  Now, all I have to do is look at a person and I can make instantaneous determinations as to said person's worth.  How simple!   How convenient!   What could possibly go wrong!

Thanks for the news, Gabe and Vic.  Yeah, just keep screaming that IÂ’m a racist, Democrats.  Keep fucking that chicken and see where it gets you (unfortunately, as weÂ’ve seen, it gets them everything).

 

 

So I hear on the local propaganda channel that “Black Friday” sales were up from last year.  Where are all those people who swear theyÂ’re cutting back on expenses and only spending money on the necessities?  Please donÂ’t tell me the spending is from the Obamaphone Nation.

 

 

And the same channel had a “cute” story about the fiscal cliff.  “We talk about it like you understand it,” oozed the reporter.  “But do you?  We went to the intelligent folks in the Fenway (not the park, the section of Boston) “to ask.”  And of course, the answers ranged from “a mountain range?” to “I donÂ’t know” and “I canÂ’t explain it.”  I wish theyÂ’d caught up to me:  “HereÂ’s a better question, you hack – why didnÂ’t we hear a thing about the fiscal cliff until your chocolate boyfriend got safely back in the White House?  Why donÂ’t you answer that first?”

 

 

Sorry about that.  LetÂ’s move on to Hollywood.

 

 

Seventy years ago today, Casablanca premiered.  IÂ’ve already told a couple of stories about it, Bogie and Bergman, but I might as well give you the straight dope on one urban legend – that Ronaldus Maximus was set to play Rick before Bogart.  Yes and no.  ReaganÂ’s name was part of a list, as was standard for any property that didnÂ’t have a star attached to it from the beginning – “so who can play this Rick character, the guy who runs the place?  WeÂ’ve got Bogart, Raft, Reagan, Cagney. . .”  As it happened, Warner Brothers knew, by the time serious casting decisions were made, that Reagan was going into the Army, so he was never seriously considered.

 

 

IÂ’ve noticed here and there some complaints about my stories, usually sadness that IÂ’ve spattered a bit of mud onto one of your idols.  I do apologize.  I never meant these little bits and pieces to make anyone sad; I only wanted to share some of the good and not-so-good anecdotes and tales IÂ’ve collected over the years.  So for anyone who thinks less of (say) Bette Davis, Ingrid Bergman or Grace Kelly because of my stories, please accept my sincerest apologies.

 

 

As a change of pace, then, hereÂ’s a happy story.  The hero is Paul Bern, the MGM producer now best known, sadly, as Jean HarlowÂ’s suicide-bent husband (though a sober reevaluation of the case makes it pretty clear he was murdered in 1932 by his common-law wife Dorothy Millette):

 

 

Jeanne Williams was a Ziegfeld Girl who went out to Hollywood to seek her fortune.  A stunning blonde, she was repeatedly turned down by talent agents who told her that blondes were a dime a dozen in Tinseltown.  So, desperate for work, she dyed her hair midnight black, changed her name to Sonia Karlov and faked a Russian accent.

 

 

By a series of lucky breaks, she came to the attention of C.B. DeMille, at that time beginning the filming of his 1928 silent The Godless Girl.  He was so taken with “Karlov” (she must have had very pretty feet) that he dumped Lina Basquette, the actress already cast in the lead, in favor of Williams.

 

 

Now, at this time, Bern and DeMille were working as independent producers at the Pathé studio in Culver City.  Bern was known to have a talent for writing, so he was asked to look over the scenario of The Godless Girl in order to revise it to include Sonia.  Needing to speak with the actress, Bern began with the few bits of Russian he knew; Sonia, of course, was ready for this.  In a broken accent, she explained that she wanted to learn English quickly, so would Bern please speak to her in that language?

 

 

All seemed to be going well until DeMille held a press conference to introduce Sonia to the public.  He was in the middle of a long oration about how she would take her place among the greatest stars of the silver screen when Lina Basquette – who had been silently winding her way through the crowd – jumped out in front of everyone, pointed a finger at Sonia and yelled, “This bitch is as Russian as I am!  Her nameÂ’s Jeanne Williams and she was in the Follies with me!”

 

 

A furious DeMille fired Sonia on the spot and rehired Basquette.  Bern gently reminded the director that only an hour before he had claimed Sonia was born to play the Godless Girl, but DeMille was adamant.  He had been tricked, and Sonia Karlov – or Jeanne Williams or whatever her name was – would never work in this town again.

 

 

Later that night, WilliamsÂ’ phone rang.  It was Bern.  “Forgive me,” he said gently, “but I wonder if you can use a friend?”

 

 

He came over to her small apartment and they talked.  Bern explained that DeMilleÂ’s influence meant she would probably not be able to find work in Hollywood and that it might be best for her to go back East.  When Williams told him she didnÂ’t have the money to leave, Bern pulled out two hundred dollars and gave it to her.

 

 

“I could only think of one way to show my gratitude,” she later remembered.  “I knew he was a man of the world. . .so I asked him to stay with me that night.  He shook his head, and when I begged him, he ran out the door.  After he died I read that he was impotent, but I knew he had had affairs with flashy women like Pola Negri and  Barbara LaMarr.  He told me, ‘My dear, if we have an affair it will change everything and take away the enjoyment I get by just helping you.Â’

 

 

“I always believed he said exactly what he meant to say.”

 

 

And I hope you all have a wonderful day.

48 Some former friends who are libs (spit be upon them) had a house built in a Chicago suburb about 12 years ago. Talking with them one night, they said how they wish that their area was more culturally diverse. I said "shit, instead of tearing up some prime farmland to build you 3500 sq ft home, you could have bought one in some already diverse area 25 miles to the east, and still not been in a DMZ". They didn't like me much after that.

I didn't and still don't care.

49 24 >> A long-winded way of saying that the Dems view is that whatever we say the rules are in order to ram something down the peoples' throats is what they will be.
 
JJ, as another example -- If Kerry is appointed to a high post in the fed gubmint as is widely expected, MA Dems (with a virtual lock on state gubmint) are proposing changing the rules ONCE AGAIN to have Deval appoint a replacement for Kerry rather than have one of those nasty ole special elections as current law calls for.
 
Back in 2004, MA Dems changed the law to prevent Mitt from appointing a replacement for Kerry when he won the presidency (oops). Then in 2009, they changed it back when Kennedy was dying to allow appointment.
 
So basically, they change the law each time to their advantage. Hugo Chavez is proud of these bozos, I'm sure.

Yes but the Dems blatantly cheat.  The Obamacare fix was a "tax bill" that was written in the Senate.  They got around the Constitutional requirement by taking a veterans affairs bill that had already passed the House, deleting every word in it and writing in the Obamacare stuff.  They called it an amendment.

CNN

- CNN Poll: Two-Thirds say fiscal cliff poses a major problem

Â…Two-thirds of people questioned in a CNN/ORC International survey
say that the U.S. would face a crisis or major problems if the country went
off the "fiscal cliff" at the end of the year, and if that happened, Republicans in Congress would probably receive the greater share of the blameÂ…



We haven't had a budget in 4 years but everything is the fault of the Republicans you see.

59 #59,  #48   Yes,  they were fallible.  The interesting thing is that most of this stuff wasn't known at the time,  because people had standards.

You might have been a trashy slut or a complete cad,  but no one put it in the papers or on radio.

Now some might think this is hypocritical,  but my personal belief is that things were much better when bad behavior wasn't thought of as commonplace,  and when the public had an actual sense of shame,  not to mention a sense of guilt.

Oh, well.  I know I am old-fashioned.

Right.

In Zimbabwe, Robert Mugabe blames Whites for the lousy economy. There may only be a single figure of thousands of Whites left in the country, but the hatred doesn't let up.

In South Africa, where Whites also surrendered power, the "farmer murders" go on by the thousands, and all the anti-White laws and rules are still in force.

Giving up power to anti-Whites just means things get worse, and worse and worse till there is nobody left. And after we're gone, we can still be blamed, the way that some Christians still see "paganism" in every vice, as though Nero and his persecutions were current events. This need never end, and if we do nothing it won't.

46 And we will destroy ourselves by our own hand.

Republican Rep. Peter King has officially announced he will step down as chairman of the House Committee on Homeland Security.

The New York congressman must resign because of party rules that limit committee chairmanships to six years, and King has already had a one-year extension that he is now finishing.

Should Attorney General Eric Holder resign and Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano take his place, as speculated, King would appear qualified for the post.

I always enjoy the Hollywood stories. As far as getting mud on some of the tinseltown idols - there is a reason why, until very recently, theater people were regarded with suspicion and disdain by decent middle class folks.

66 Also Jeff Hauser a spokesman for the AFL-CIO who seems to inexplicably be involved in the fiscal cliff talks has a message for you:

Not a single day more of the Bush tax cuts for the two percent" and protect Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid.


Here is why the GOP is a steaming pile of junk.

The "Bush" Tax Cuts were passed 12 years ago, and have been
renewed.

They should be referred to as "the current tax rates" but the GOP allowed
the opposition to continually define them  as "Bush" tax cuts, tax cuts for the rich, etc.

Fight you fuckers learn how to play this freaking game would you already.

And it would be helpful for the GOP to point out that Obama stole 816 billion from Medicare to dump into Obamacare.

67 Railing about the commies in DC and the classrooms is unproductive. Crony capitalism and governance by bureaucratic fiat is the new law of the land. Regulation is applied unevenly, Federal money is used to reward donors and punish the unfaithful.
The distinguishing characteristic of a successful republic is the law applied evenly to all. We are post-republic at this time.
Get over it. We are descending into the tribal state again. Get your tribe together, as well-armed and well-funded as possible.
I'm thinking that the Jews have been through this decline into tribalism so many times in different lands that they naturally stay in their tribe always. I'm thinking I don't really blame them. They understand the base nature of Man far better than me.

115 I have a pet theory about McLame. His maverickyness is a direct result of his being a prick who gets his jollies from being contrary for the sake of being contrary. No surprise there of course. But I'm now pretty well convinced that his resistance to the NVA in prison was more due to that contraryness than to any sense of honor. He was constantly in trouble with the Navy before he was shot down, and was lucky that he got the chance to redirect that prickliness to the enemy before he'd worn out his welcome in the Navy.

No, eman, never saw that.  I don't know if we even got 22.  My introduction to silents was, oddly enough, through PBS channel 2, which for some reason in the late '60s would show Chaplin shorts in the afternoon just when I'd come home from school.  Frankly, one reel of Dough and Dynamite would teach kids today a hell of a lot more than a week of Sesame Street.

"We haven't had a budget in 4 years but everything is the fault of the Republicans you see."

I've told this story before, but it perfectly illustrates what we're up against.

I live in the Lincoln Square neighborhood of Chicago. A few years ago, I went to a comic book store that was located on the NE corner of Lawrence and Western to buy a Christmas present for my son, who at the time was very into comic books.

Although the that is a prosperous commercial district, the buildings on that corner were slated to be condemned by the city and turned over to a developer for condos. Condos would yield more revenue for the city, you see. The local merchants and community led marches to city hall and generally stirred up enough trouble that the city put its plans on hold. (Later, the housing crash put an end to them, but that's another story.)

In the store, I congratulated the owner on keeping his shop open. The guy launched into a monologue, in which he blamed for his trouble ... the Republicans!

Mind you, the city is run by Democrats. The county is run b Democrats. Every statewide office in Illinois is in the hands of Democrats. Every single official involved in this mess was a Democrat. Yet he blamed the Republicans - and why? Because the Republicans, according to him, "passed some law that let the city do this."

It was only after I'd left the store that I realized that he was referring, through the dimness of his consciousness, to the Kelo decision ... which was returned by the liberals on the Supreme Court.

Against ignorance this profound, with minds this warped by ideology, we have no chance. None.

As the Wall Street Journal noted, Obama did best with "low-information voters", of whom my comic-book-store owner is a fine example. And the Democrats and the media plan to keep them as low-information as possible as long as they can.

Until we can begin to penetrate the popular "culture", we're fighting a rearguard action.
