Pathetic. Just pathetic.
I realize that in today’s political environment, that word could easily refer to damn near everything. And, honestly, it should. The people, places and things in politics are just the worst; truly the worst.
It’s almost impossible to differentiate which is worse, they’re all just, well, pathetic.
While I could cast aspersions across the entire political spectrum – lord knows there’s enough stupid, exploitative, opportunistic grifters on our side in elected office, on televisions and behind microphones – but no one appreciates the ugly truth reflected in a mirror, they’d much rather hear how age as impacted everyone else’s looks, not theirs.
Maybe another time.
Right now, I want to talk about this ridiculousness about the flag.
How in the hell did the flag become controversial?
The reality is that it did not, one side of the political aisle has lost so much of its mind that the thoughts they used to only entertain alone at night, are now the currency of their wing of humanity. Twenty years ago, hating the United States would’ve gotten you excommunicated from the Democratic Party. Now, it’s a requirement for membership.
Who attacks the flag? Democrats.
It started with the Gadsden flag – Democrats declaredthe concept of “Don’t Tread On Me” to be controversial, undoubtedly because they desperately seek to tread on everyone. At least the Confederate flag was associated with something negative – granted, it was something negative Democrats did and desperately wanted the world to forget they’d done it.
After burying their shame as best they could, they turned to shaming everyone else. Like the bad parent lecturing about how their kid isn’t allowed to smoke with a Pall Mall hanging out of their mouth, Democrats declared everything that wasn’t nailed down to be “extreme.”
Suddenly, the American flag would make some people “uncomfortable” because of what it represents in their heads. Their heads, of course, have plenty of vacant space in which things can easily be misrepresented – space and echoes make for confusion.
Democrats are now on the warpath, targeting Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito because his wife used their flag as the equivalent of a middle finger to a neighbor she’d been fighting with. Of course, Democrats can never be accused of flying a flag in a way anyone could spin as “offensive” because they’ve already burned all of theirs. The only flags a Democrat respectsare the Ukrainian flag and the Palestinian flag: corruption and terrorists, the conjoined twins of the progressive left
Oh, and the seizure inducing, vomitus rectangle called the “Progressive flag,” where every form of degeneracy is celebrated and human beings are reduced to a color. Democrats really notice color, just any black person who lived under their control in the south 150 years ago.
Now the “Appeal To Heaven” flag is the latest “extremist” flag. It was designed by an extremist: George Washington.
Washington was so extreme that he walked away from political power for the first time in human history. Actually, he was so extreme and love the country so dearly he’d despise Democrats and may well advocate for their trial and execution for treason.
Alito, it turns out, flew this Washington flag, too. If anything proves someone is an extremist it is holding the greatest Founding Father in anything other than contempt. Just ask anyone condemning the existence of Jews in their commencement address to a bunch of new minted unemployable lesbian history studies majors and they’ll yell you all about it. Er, tell you all about it…yelling.
Democrats Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, who literally belongs to a “whites only” beach club his wife helps run, had the balls to declare Alito too extreme to serve. That takes an incredible amount of gall, or at least the knowledge that the people of Rhode Island really don’t like black people either, so why bother to keep your campaign promise to resign? Hell, those morons reelected him three times, and are poised to do it again. There’s little daylight between how Sheldon conducts himself and how KKK Grand Wizard would.
Hell, Democrats elected a leader of the KKK to be their lead two times in the Senate in the 80s and 90s, do you really think they’re going to let a little racism keep them from their exclusive swimming club?
Now the San Francisco Chronicle is writing stories about how dumb people are now afraid of this flag, seemingly having gotten over the concerns around piles of human feces and used junkie needles all over the street. Also, having forgotten that the flag flew at SF City Hall at the same time that evil Alito had it at his house. And the New York Times, which praised an art exhibit with the flag in just a couple of years ago.
But no one noticed it at Alito’s house back then, now they have, and for stupid people, history begins when they first notice something they can complain about or exploit.
It’s actually a sign of desperation that Democrats are will to make themselves look this stupid rather than engage on the issues. Once they get done promising an abortion in every uterus, they’ve pretty much run out of issues where they enjoy anything close to majority support. That gives me hope that voters will throw their worthless asses out of office in November. What it does mean for sure is they’re only going to get more desperate before then.
