Happy Wednesday.

Kurt Schlichter writes over at Breitbart that conservatives ignore Lena Dunham's 'Girls' at their own peril. His point is a good one: you can't retake culture if you can't discuss it. My related point: even if conservatives don't like current state of culture, setting ourselves up as nothing other than unengaged critics is unlikely to win any friends (or voters). We don't have to like Hollywood, but we should recognize that most other people do and they're not going to be very receptive to conservatives or conservative ideas if all they hear from conservatives is knee-jerk opposition. This is the second time this issue has come up in the context of 'Girls' and both Ace's and NakedDC's takes on the 'Nazi Republican' issue illustrate it well. It's okay to come at these things sideways.

Washington Post says the sequester cuts are probably going to happen and that's making Sen. Graham a sad panda. I'm down with it.

If you didn't get to hear Sen. Rubio on Rush Limbaugh yesterday, here's the transcript. El Rushbo was much less critical of the proposed bipartisan plan than he was the day before.

It's mindless bullshit.  What's to discuss?

Why are big media cultural fads more irritant then those in the real world, like Truck Nutz or Tenakw? and I am not hooking up the TV again to find out.

Posted by: Jean at January 30, 2013 06:41 AM (3f/jH) Rush was more than polite; he was positively gushing over Rubio afterwards. Look, I like Marco Rubio and there is a certain reality that has to be faced vis a vis those illegals already here. That's not to say that I want to grant them instant citizenship or validated membership to the Free Shit Army (which they are in already anyway). But I did not hear a really good answer as to how Rubio intends to defend/prevent the broken promises of border security in exchange for amnesty. I also wish Rush would have brought up his amnesty without being able to vote for 25 years idea. Oh well.

21 - "Kurt Schlichter writes over at Breitbart that conservatives ignore Lena Dunham's 'Girls' at their own peril." Schlichter is a gentlemen and a scholar, but on this point he's out to lunch. The whole problem is that for decades conservatives have obsessed over "the culture" at the expense of the mechanics of politics. "The culture" doesn't vote on legislation, or nominate judges, or appoint agency heads, or issue executive orders. Politicians do. Taking back "the culture" doesn't win elections. The GOP needs a new voter base. One that's not irrational. One that actually votes. - "Washington Post says the sequester cuts are probably going to happen and that's making Sen. Graham a sad panda. I'm down with it." I don't know that we necessarily want to gloat over indiscriminate cuts to the military. Keep in mind whom they have as their CIC. - "If you didn't get to hear Sen. Rubio on Rush Limbaugh yesterday, here's the transcript. El Rushbo was much less critical of the proposed bipartisan plan than he was the day before." Obviously. It's a lot tougher to be a jackass when the object of your derision can defend himself. And Rubio is a lot smarter than Limbaugh, far better educated, and even though he's so much younger Rubio already has far more real world experience.

Posted by: Dark Ages at January 30, 2013 02:57 AM (+kznc)

33 We will not win back the culture or anything else without winning back the schools and the family. As a stealth conservative in a the ultra-leftist entertainment industry, we have no shot at equal time. If we are not at the level of Clint Eastwood or David Mamet, we will be blackballed. The schools are the key. And the only way to take those back is to get on the school boards and de-fang the AFT and NEA. And since that is an unlikely scenario, then homeschooling en masse is the best option in the short run at least. That is until the government determines homeschooling detrimental to children's mental health and mandates public schooling. It's on page 1,435 of the Obamacare edict.

Posted by: Tsar Nicholas II at January 30, 2013 06:53 AM (r2PLg) Oh, i'm going to respectfully disagree. Rush is an old school gentleman. Also, a multi millionaire businessman that could buy and sell Rubios whole family and make a profit. Rush is good to his guests thats why they come to him when important stuff happens. They request to talk to him, he doesn't have to look for them.

61 Rush and Levin each made the point that it doesn't really matter what laws are passed since SCOAMF will selectively choose which ones he wants to enforce. And the circuit decision the other day about the non-recess recess appointments notwithstanding, he is behaving like a dictator. He has the press, a willing half of congress, a neutered other half, a corrupt DoJ and an unreliable Judiciary that is now mostly activist. Again, I like Marco Rubio but I wish he was much more strident in defending the rule of law. He'd attract a hell of a lot more people to his side in anticipation of 2016. Rookie or not, you would have to be blind to not see what team SCOAMF is doing every day. I suppose he thinks he has to be all collegial and diplomatic, but that died with the Bork hearings. If the left can be scum, it's time to take the gloves off as well. The MFM are going to rip us anyway, so why not lay into the leftists with both barrels now????

74 >>I hear what he saying, but really, do I need to watch this show? Well, no, you don't. I certainly don't. (What, you think I'm made of money? That shit is on premium cable or whatever it's called.) What I'm saying (and what Kurt is saying) is that unreasoned criticism doesn't help our side. You can dislike Hollywood without spending all your social capital disliking Hollywood. Lemme put it this way: remember how ya'll thought Speaker Boehner was acting stupidly for picking a fight with the most popular folks on the conservative side and ya'll thought he should be picking fights with the least popular folks on the GOP side? This is the same thing, only subsitute "conservatives" for "Speaker Boehner" and "Hollywood" for "the most popular folks on the conservative side." Why must we always lead with knee-jerk criticisms of something that most Americans like a lot? It puts us crossways with most Americans, who, if you hadn't noticed, we kinda need to convince that conservatives aren't freaks.

Look around Gabe. Convincing others that we aren't freaks by engaging in the institution that's decrying us is a long hard slog. I'm not saying that it's impossible, but the very institutions that we should involve ourselves in want us to FOADIAF. Quite literally. Being able to talk around the water cooler about "Girls" or "Abbey Road" or "The Biggest Loser" will not for one second stop them from eviscerating us when the subject of gun control or taxes comes up.

105 I get what Schlicter is trying to say - that conservatives should be familiar with current trends so that you can discuss and deride them with/to your liberal coworkers. However. Calling Girls a "trend" is a fucking stretch. I just looked up the Season Two numbers and it's averaging 860,000 viewers. That's fucking dismal. Episode 1 - 870,000 viewers. Episode 2 - 570,000 viewers. Episode 3 - 760,000 viewers. Rachel Maddow numbers. Cooper Anderson numbers. I could air a fucking ALF reunion 4-parter that would average more viewers. The "critical acclaim" is what is keeping this shitburger on life support. If this whore had to compete on a non-cable network, the advertisers would dump her like... well, every man would dump her. If she could get a man. Return to your posts. Nothing happening here.

Hello, ‘rons and ‘ronettes.  Sorry to be late.  Thanks for the morning briefing, Gabe, and hereÂ’s a prayer for Vic and Mrs Vic as she goes to the doctor today.  LetÂ’s have a happy story – letÂ’s talk about another of my favorite movies, Stanley KramerÂ’s 1963 epic ItÂ’s A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World.

 

 

The shoot – over 160 days -  took place in various California locations, from Cathedral City (where Smiler Grogan kicked the bucket), to Palm Desert, Yucca Valley, San Fernando, Long Beach, San Pedro. . .and the list goes on.

 

 

One location, near Palm Springs, was on the property of composer Jimmy Van Huesen, who, with lyricist Sammy Cahn, wrote many of Frank SinatraÂ’s best songs - the Ray and Irwin gas station (“Service with a Big, Broad Smile!”).  The station was a specially constructed set, which Van Heusen first saw on his weekly drive from LA to his Palm Springs house.  Now, you or I might stop and wonder about it if a gas station suddenly appeared on our property, but Van Heusen drove right on; he figured his business manager had leased the property to a real service station.

 

 

That weekend, Kramer shot the scenes involving the station; first, when Milton Berle, Ethel Merman and Dorothy Provine try to rent the stationÂ’s tow truck, and then, the fight between Jonathan Winters, Marvin Kaplan and Arnold Stang which turns the station into a pile of rubble.  The shooting complete, Kramer and crew packed up, just before Van Heusen drove by again, on his trip back to LA.  When the composer saw the wreck, he whipped his car around and drove back to Palm Springs, frantically calling his manager; he figured some terrible accident had happened to the station over the weekend and was deathly afraid he might be sued!

 

 

If you watch the fight, youÂ’ll see that StangÂ’s left wrist is held limply inside a thick glove; it turns out the actor had broken it earlier and the glove was being used to hide his cast.  Surprisingly, for a film containing such mayhem, only Stang and Phil Silvers (who pulled a groin muscle)* were injured during the shoot.

 

 

There was one close call with death, however.  Stunt flyer Frank Tallman was directed to fly Tyler FitzgeraldÂ’s (Jim Backus) twin-engine Beechcraft D-18 through a Coca-Cola advertising sign.  A fake sign was set up for practice, made of Styrofoam and balsa wood, and Tallman flew through it several times a day for three weeks, in order to get the speed and angle correct.  When the time came for filming, however, the paper sign reading “The Pause That Refreshes” had been replaced – no one ever admitted who did it – by linen.  When Tallman flew through the sign at over 160 mph, the resistance killed the right engine, shattered the cockpit windshield and tore back the leading edges of both wings.  Tallman said it was the closest heÂ’d ever come to dying, and he refused to ever perform a similar stunt again.

 

 

One last note: many, many more comedians and actors were considered for inclusion in the Mad World cast than ever made it to the final cut, including Stan Laurel, Judy Garland, Bob Hope, Red Skelton and Groucho Marx (who was originally offered the role of Mister Marcus, Milton BerleÂ’s father-in-law, but he asked for too much money and the role was recast for Ethel Merman).  You remember one of the funniest cameos in the movie, when Dingy Bell (Mickey Rooney) and Benjy Benjamin (Buddy Hackett) are trying to land at Rancho Conejo Airport – the camera catches a milling crowd and an ambulance preparing for casualties, then slowly pans left to reveal the airportÂ’s firefighters: Larry, Moe and Curly-Joe.  Well, there was actually a fourth Stooge set to be in the movie: Joe Besser was to play either Ray or Irwin in the gas station, but his TV producers wouldnÂ’t give him time off to make an appearance.

 

 

OK, I lied, one more:  there never was such a place as the Santa Rosita Beach State Park, where the Big “W” was.  The land was private property on Palos Verdes Drive in Palos Verdes, converted over by United Artists at a cost of $80,000 and left as seen in the movie after shooting wrapped.  You can still hike to the beach and look into the large yard, but the palm trees no longer exist, victims to years of neglect.  Only one stump of one tree remains.  The current owners promise to restore the Big “W” to its full glory, but theyÂ’ve also been promising that since the 1980s, so donÂ’t get your hopes up.

 

 

And thatÂ’s it for today.  Hope you enjoyed that.  And donÂ’t forget about my book, The DirectorÂ’s Cut: A Theda Bara Mystery, available on Kindle and from the Amazon and Barnes and Noble websites, or through your local bookstore.

 

 

*the injury happened while the cast was chasing Captain Culpeper (Spencer Tracy); watch as the men pursue him up the stairwell of an abandoned building near the end of the film and youÂ’ll notice itÂ’s SilversÂ’ stunt double, keeping his face turned away from the camera, whoÂ’s doing the scene.

You should recognize that you're a sucker.

Despite endless, endlessly repeated, across-the-spectrum all-media hype, from the day of the show's announcement to this morning on this very blog, one third of one percent of Americans watch Girls. All of them chumps.

The illusion of being where the action is--of being the site of Culture, of unity, of moral peril, etc.--is the spectacular illusion.

I mean "spectacular" in the Society of the Spectacle sense. You guys should know that stuff. The "dead object in spectacular contemplation" (e.g., Lena Dunham) is a defensive bulwark of the ruling class (which isn't you), yo. If you look, you lose.

138 I agree with Gabe's general point, but I don't think it applies in this situation. "Girls" has practically zero audience. It's very tiny demographic is young, rich, urban, single white girls who fancy themselves to be a helluva lot smarter than anyone else on the face of the earth. The "arts" media gets wood over this, but more people watch the lowest rated network show than watch "Girls."

154 From Schlichter's piece: "Girls is about four young, aimless college grads living in New York. Think of Sex and the City, except Sarah Jessica Parker has doubled her weight, dresses like a potato sack and fancies herself the voice of some undefined generation. There’s sex and nudity – just not hot Homeland sex and nudity. This is the first show in the history of cable television where male viewers actively root for the heroine to keep her clothes on." Well, he certainly sold me. I'm as un-prudish as you can get about this kind of stuff, but I don't watch "Girls" or "Sex and the City". Not because they're eevilll Hollywood subversive culture or anything but simply because they're boring.

I'm not sure that will ever take hold.  Bob Dylan has taken some pretty conservative stands going back to the 60s and either people were too fucking dumb to figure it out or they just chose to ignore it.  Electing the JEF twice has given me a pretty jaundiced view of mankind that ultimately the dumb and lazy fucks will prevail.  I'll need some real evidence to the contrary to believe otherwise.

170 Been slowly reading as I drove to school. Since about 7:07 eastern. Seated and waiting for the professor. Fuck HBO. Until we start calling every leftist out as a racist murderer instead of "engaging" them, we won't be in the correct mindset for this fight. Hey, remember how everyone used to make jokes about Ryan Seacrest being really short? He was the butt of the joke for quite a while. Then, he started making the short jokes first and beat everyone to the punch! The short jokes dried up; it wasn't any fun anymore. Sure he still has a side job posing for trophies, but the jokes stopped. The point is, until we beat the left to the punch and decry everything they do in the harshest, most irrational terms possible EVERY SINGLE TIME, they will continue to pwn the culture and pwn us as well. Stop trying to be the "cool dad" and go fucking serial killer on their vapid, soul-crushing trash. It's not even trash. It's like the yellowish-brown water that collects at the bottom of a trash can-- the refuse of refuse.

173 Some more contrast: Duck Dynasty, an obviously scripted "reality" show about a family of Louisiana shitkickers, got 2.36 million viewers last week on a Wednesday night. That's four times the viewership of Girls. And yet no one talks about the overwhelming continued popularity of a kind-hearted family that pretends to be stupid to pull off some self-deprecating, but not cruel humor. A show that always ends with the family around the dinner table while the patriarch thanks God for their blessings. I guess it's just not "important", like the self-defeating travails of a pack of vapid whores who pretend to be smart. Then again, I thought the purpose of television was entertainment.

175 Re: Zimbabwe, aaand yet another resource rich, hopelessly mismanaged central economy chokes on its own vomit. Much like South Africa, Zimbabwe was rocking along mining diamonds and plutonium (who doesn't need those?) until around 2000 or so, when the world decided it was OK to let a nativist backed governments overthrow the whites who had set up a functioning economy, and redistribute their shit to violent, uneducated freeloaders who were only looking for a hand up, not a hand out if I recall correctly, though maybe that last part was someplace else. Anyway, a scant decade later they are printing trillion dollar bills (I have one, courtesy of a sales call from our Jersey Isle foreign associates who handle my African filings for oil companies; it's crazy looking with all those zeros) and the their entire society has been utterly destroyed (hence the associates setting up shop in islands off the coast of England rather than locally). In South Africa, they are down to around seven-million white taxpayers who live nice enough lives in armed villages hoping the locals don't rise up and kill their guards, which they could easily do if they got drunk and angry (which happens all the time) and decided to face the machine guns with machetes human wave style. Ah, progress. Coming to a theater neighborhood near you.

177 Female murderer on TX death row for killing two kids was to be given the juice last night. Stayed for 60 days. Reason given by inept judge because she was black and jury all white. In today's America, what is the mathematical probability that 12 white jurors concerned with the murderer's skin color could be assembled? Why would her lawyer allow such a racist jury to be created? Frankly, I'd believe the probability more if the skin colors were reversed.

183 The “framework” says that “illegals” presently in the US could get a visa, which wouldn’t allow them access to welfare services, until some lamebrain federal judge (most likely in the Ninth Circuit) says otherwise.

I pointed out on Monday that we need to keep in mind that the GOP can lose this in too ways .. it can pass a bad bill or walk away from a good bill

After listening around, I’m beginning to get the feeling that this “framework” may .. I stress may .. become a fairly decent bill.

IÂ’m also beginning to sense that the Democrats are now trying to convince the GOP that it is a bad bill (since when has David Frum been right about anything). This allows them to show that they care more about Hispanics (but not those Mexicans that Fast and Furious helped get killed) and keep this thorny issue alive that pays dividends for Democrats at the polls.

But I also agree with Sen. Sessions ...
"We would be in a much better position to achieve immigration reform if the Obama Administration had spent that last four years enforcing federal law rather than dismantling it. Brave immigration agents have been left with no recourse but to sue their own Department head, simply so that they—like any other law officers—will be allowed to do their jobs. Just last Friday a federal judge made an important preliminary ruling in their favor. The ICE union also held their own agency head, John Morton, in no confidence with a unanimous vote. The first task for every media agency in the country ought to be to study this lawsuit, to listen to the long-documented complaints of ICE agents, and to review the record of stymied attempts at congressional oversight of DHS."

Our Dear Leader would be just as happy to kick this can down the road because the status quo works for him right now, so he has no problem using immigration as a weapon for his personal political fetishes.

So far this is merely a “framework” not a bill. I suggest that we find out what it really is before forming a judgement, and yes, stay skeptical.

Had dinner with my daughter and her hubby last night.  We were talking about TV shows.  The wife and I are catching up on The Walking Dead (almost done with season 2 - Netflix is wunnerful!) 

Anyway.. We were suggesting shows to each other and my daughter mentioned Girls.. but added "You may not like that one.."  ya think?  I have HBO and Showtime and I had never even heard of it until it won some awards recently!

I have never considered cable shows to be indicative of anything..  HBO did that Sarah Palin movie and it also got all kinds of awards.. I don't know one person who watched it.

Broadcast TV shows - that actually try to sell you stuff through commercials - are probably a lot better barometer for pop culture..  but we're still doomed.

What is to be feared is whatever Schumer and those guys will turn it into, keeping Rubio's name on it, which will tarnish him forever. Which is their plan, to play politics with it, and Rubio doesn't get that. If they are going to play politics with it, then fine, make it hardball. Menendez and his sex offender illegal alien office worker. Menendez and his underage Dominican whores that his biggest donor takes him to play with on his private jet. And I also see that Harry Reid won'r endorse Feinstein's bill. Because whatever else about that dumb shit, he knows what he can get away with, and what he can't. Get them all on record.

A group of friends were huddling under a canopy in the park because it was raining hard here.  There had been words exchanged before this and the one kid comes back with a gun and starts shooting.  I imagine these retards shoot like in the movies with the gun sideways and not aiming, because they never hit the intended target.. always some little kid or promising student.

Then, in the same newscast we get the fucking idiot chief of police Garry McCarthy fresh from his gun conference with King Baraka spouting off about how guns on the streets are the problem.. and we need to be tougher on people who lose guns..  The newscasters didn't get the obvious irony.

FFS, it almost reads like he's a PR flack for the show. Meanwhile, the season 4 premiere of Justified had 5.3 million viewers, the show is critically acclaimed, and one of its stars is an AoSHQ Moron. Yeah, let's talk about "Girls".

218 We're quickly becoming the Ed Morrissey Party, a bunch of whiny eunuchs who babble about "fairness" and suck up to the Choom Boy Brigade so they don't miss the cocktail parties and all those affectionate little pats on their shiny heads from Our Betters among the liberals. Sorry. I think "becoming" has nothing to do with it. It has always been this way. What changed is that with the Clintons and now Obama and his gang of thugs, the left went far enough off script that the RINOs can no longer hide the fact that they really play for the other side. As the left's behavior gets more and more outrageous, the tepid RINO opposition is finally starting to look as ridiculous as it really is. There is no engagement or debate possible with the left. The differences between what they represent and what the USA is supposed to be are irreconcilably at odds. Anyone claiming to be not of the left telling you that debate or engagement with the left is possible is either deluded or an infiltrator.

219 206 Golan Globus,

It is what it is.  The Democrats held all the cards for half of the damn Amnesties this nation has had and we were told in 1986 that this PRECISELY would not happen then the donks keep importing them.

We do not have "rescue boats" for Cubans, and I do not get to import Right wing EUropean reinforcements.

Only Team Donkey gets to weaponize the immigration patterns of the US.

220 Late good morning,  morons.  I am still under the weather.

1. Agree we should engage on some of the culture.  I suggest not this show,  which requires spending actual money to watch.  Also,  it's only talked about in the press because it's "edgy."  Much better to start in by forcing oneself to watch and seriously critique Beyonce's Super Bowl half time.  You could probably go to the trouble to watch "Girls" and then discover brining it up at the water cooler would only get you labeled more of a weirdo.

2. Sven, sirens were probably tornado warning downin Batholomew County and Edinburgh.  The tornado warning went off when I had the radio on last night.

there are reports that an old photo of a "young Arnold" performing a sex act has come to light.

The photo is reportedly part of a treasure trove of artifacts that have been discovered in a storage space owned by late Penthouse founder Bob Guccione.

According to the New York Post, the Arnold pic -- along with a bunch of other VEERRRY interesting items -- were discovered by a guy who went all "Storage Wars" and bought up a bunch of the lockers after Guccione went bankrupt.

231 I get where Rubio is coming from. He says the first thing we need to do is fix the LEGAL immigration system. Its true, I have been saying it for a long time (that means its better than true, its right!) but the reason why it remains broken is that there is no real constituency there. His proposal is actually pretty good. We need to stop eating Rubio alive, you are acting like the Preezy is right when he says "If a Republican member of Congress is not punished on Fox News or by Rush Limbaugh for working with a Democrat on a bill of common interest, then you'll see more of them doing it." Great, like we want TFG to be right about something. Just like entitlements, either we fix immigration - legal and illegal - or it will fix itself in a way we have no control over. So let's not eat our own for GOOD IDEAS. Remind Rubio who he is working with. Tell the truth about the Dems.

237 "His point is a good one: you can't retake culture if you can't discuss it." This is one of those little platitudes that goes over well with the leftist mindset. Right up there with "Change is progress" and "Diversity is power". The people with whom you want to discuss this are incapable of actual discussion. The proper course is to mock, because that's all these people understand.

291 Oh, now I get it.  It's a signalling device.  "Yes, I saw that episode where FUPA misplaced her new silicone dildo and hilarity ensued, leading to a deep conversation about meaning of silicone as it pertains to a young tattooed womyn's place in society" signals that I'm not some antique fuddy-duddy who read a book last night. 

So I've made a connection with someone who will still recoil in horror when they learn that I really believe that it's better to shoot your attacker than to be raped.  And the world is a better place for conservatism.

295 Rubio is unqualified to be a political leader for at least one reason: (1) He trusts the Dems to enforce the border, or to keep their word, which means he is hopelessly naive; OR, (2) He doesn't actually want to enforce the borders, which means he is lying to his and might as well be a Donk.

307 One of the true geniuses of the past twenty years has to be the person who first came up with reality tv shows. Zippo production costs compared to, say, a sitcom. I think in most cases the director is taking care of script as they go along. Minimal set expenses. Use of archived footage saves tons. That Alaska show, Gold Rush, had a little blurb that 120 people participated in last season's production. Now that is among three sites, remotes, studio dubbing, the whole works. Kaching.

314 282 Golan Globus,

I'm not anti-immigrant, I am anti illegal immigrant.

Jedi hand waving away the fact that under their own laws they are felons by their very illegal presence here changes nothing.

Ba-Rahn-Ko is fixing the economy so that the only folk wanting to come here are hammock dwellers and refugees.

I'll start angsting over the "plight of the Mexopolitans" when the donkey party starts exerting pressure on mexopolis to take down the berlin wall on their southern border.

There is ONLY one nation on Earth expected to play this game and only one side of the aisle expected to let its enemy get reinforcements every 8-16 years.

so the dumbest nation on the Earth on immigration has us the dumbest party on earth as Charlie brown to Schuck Shumer's lucy van pelt.

We could have cornered the South African refugees had they not been made politically toxic and had an influx of english speaking college graduates.....

Like I said only one side gets a weaponized and slef-admittedly so by tedster kennedy INS....

not us.

337 324 Golan Globus,

The problem is that Menendez wisely is NOT Donkey prime! and most folk of hispanic orgin would probably take trying to point out that a teen sexual relations guidance counselor(allegedly)is a specious attack.

I have not savaged Rubio as anything other than either a naive idiot or a person who is lying to us.

That would be because those are the "choices."

Maybe if Rubio kept himself contained on wagging his tail and saying..."COME ON GUYS I KNOW THEY WON'T FUCK YOU THIS TIME! I CAN FEEL IT!"

he wouldn't be getting the heat he is?

Do you understand how pissed off a lot of us are that the GOP leadership felt that:

1) negotiating on this behind closed doors for 4 years was "a great idea"

2) that John fucking McCain who can't get his mouth of Zombie Ted kennedy's co*k is front and center

3) they launch into this bullshit rather than using the early stage of the game to lay the groundwork for an endless barrage of "where's you fucking budget harry?"

The GOP needed this chat like it needed a hole in the head....

Let Ogabe bring it up and remind everyone he is a fucking retard who is blocking this.

If the GOP takes more than one step forward without HARD action on the border it is finished.

I'd rather have INS abolished and the US declared an open city than this targeted Democrat voter recruiting effort going on in 2027 again when they really do outnumber us forever.

346 " We don't have to like Hollywood, but we should recognize that most other people do and they're not going to be very receptive to conservatives or conservative ideas if all they hear from conservatives is knee-jerk opposition." Then the only answer is to not talk about it. It's nothing to actually like, if you're conservative, and faking that you're interested is going to be worse than consistently criticizing. The best alternative is to discourage TV watching in favor of other activities, and if you can't shut it off, get into shows like Mythbusters, Iron Chef, World Poker Championships, Deadliest Catch, etc, that are about people doing things other than boinking, shooting, and covering it up.

349 Conservatives are never taking the culture back, so there is no point in watching or discussing shows like "Girls."

Posted by: Capt. Obvious at January 30, 2013 12:53 PM (oyQVv)

350 Kurt, if you really want us to watch "Girls", you might start by not writing a description of it that makes us even less interested in watching it after we read it than before we read it. If we really want to watch frumpy women insult Republicans, we don't need "Girls". We don't need HBO. We don't even need premium cable. We already have "The View". (All apologies to Elisabeth Hasselbeck, because she's pretty and not leftist, but it's true.) And if I want to watch vapid modern women, "The Bachelor(ette) is on ABC and the Kardashians are on E! and they're more attractive.

It's not, or at least not simply, a matter of not wanting to go outside the conservative bubble. It's about not wanting to go outside it for crap. There's stuff on HBO and AMC and other networks that's not strictly speaking our message, that's in some cases really not our message, that's nonetheless good art, entertaining, and that in least some cases provides food for thought and discussion of our message. I'm supposed to care about "Girls" instead of that stuff? Life's too short.

And "Lena doesn't think Republicans are like Nazis, Hannah does" might fly a little bit better if Lena had never done "Your First Time". There's a certain point where Lena is Hannah is Lena. Trying to tell the difference is like trying to tell the difference between Aaron and Roy in "Primal Fear". You'll get the same answer either way, and for the same reason. It's like saying that Aaron Sorkin or Rod Lurie don't really think liberals are good people and conservatives are evil bastards. So it's just a coincidence that it works out that way in their movies/shows? Really?
