Noted in Passing: Everybody Knows

This Guy Is Senile and Can the Media Stop Pretending He’s Not?
The best part is when Biden just goes and gives away the scam, whether announcing that he’s been ordered not to answer questions or that he’s got a list of pre-approved questions he has to follow. Imagine the faux outrage if Kayleigh McEnany or Sarah Huckabee Sanders approached the White House correspondents/apparatchiks and demanded to prescreen their queries. “BUT MUH JOURNALISTIC INTEGRITIES!” they would huff and puff.
Today? “Pre-screened questions? Yes, Mistress Jenn! Might your worm have the privilege of licking your vinyl boots? Slurp, slurp, slurp.”
He’s angry and shouts, or he whispers like he’s offering passing kids a chance to see the puppies he’s got in his van. And whatever dope they pumååp him up with to get through the list of scripted questions lasts maybe ten minutes, and then you can see the wheels coming off. Out comes the shepherd’s crook to drag him off-stage to be wrapped in a shawl, handed a bowl of mush, and set in front of the tee vee to watch his stories.
I don’t know about you but I have had it with the marching morons who, even now, looking down the barrel of international ruination, overwhelming national inflation, and a vast excess of fornication flatulation wafting from the White House still, STILL, claim they are seeing in their savior Biden a man in full possession of his mental faculties. Since nobody can be that blind and that stupid I have to think they are in league with this shambolic demented droolcup.
Hey quislings, stop pretending. Don’t be one of those people we’re going to remember.
50 yrs of loosing. What I see is Biden IS solidifying his position in history. Biden’s a narcissist, motherfucker should be in prison with his son, his brother his sister, his wife, their dog and the other daughter we never hear about.
Afghanistan’s old news, their on to much bigger and better things. Be surprised if ANYONE lost their job over the past twenty year shit show.

Nah, 57+ years of losing. Since, at least, 1964.

Everybody knows. Leonard Cohen did it best. And before everyone else.
Really. I wasn’t always a fan of his musical arrangements but this isn’t an improvement.

You get more of what you tolerate, and since the citizenry of this great nation of ours have been shrugging their shoulders for the past fifty or more years at the crimes of the ruling class, not surprisingly the ruling class has committed more of them and crimes of every-greater severity… and then dared the rest of us to do anything about it.
Any number of inflection points could be selected, but a good one is when Ted Kennedy – that’s Senator Edward Kennedy (D-MA) of the famous Kennedy political dynasty – got away with murder for killing for Mary Jo Kopechne in summer 1969, without suffering so much as a slap on the wrist.
The incident at Chappaquiddick Island saw Kennedy’s negligence kill his young female passenger, an act which – had he been a normal person and not a member of the ruling class – would have seen him charged-convicted at a minimum with some sort of felony man-slaughter or wrongful death, followed by a prison term. But Teddy’s dad, political king-maker and family patriarch Joseph P. Kennedy, called in every favor he had going, and managed to extricate his son from the crisis of his own making.
The fix, as they say, was in – all the way in. Kennedy went on to be celebrated by the political left as “the lion of the Senate”in his later years, and poor Mary Jo was forgotten. The Kennedy clan probably paid some hush money to the family of the victim to make any difficulty there go away. See, no fuss and no muss. It’s nice to be rich, powerful and connected, isn’t it?
The real harm the incident did, apart from the needless death of the victim, is how it exposed the rule of law in this country as de facto a two-tiered institution, instead of the de jure single rule of law for all we are supposed to have. It told the rich and powerful members of the ruling/protected class that they had a “Get Out of Jail Free” card, that they could use anytime they wanted.
And thus the Clintons, Obama, the Bushes, you name it… right up to the present. None of them even remotely subject to the same laws the rest of us are supposed to follow. And all of those broken and ignored laws down the years and decades acted like a green light at an intersection to all of the would-be tyrants out there, saying in effect “Go right ahead…. no one will stop you!”
The media will say and do anything to protect democrats. The media lambasted trump daily and extolled the virtues of biden during the campgain. The media is the enemy of democracy

You are the epitome of a pathologically stupid DumbFuck.
Without question, it’s obviously the basis of your decision to post this talentless, hipster, steaming pile cover of a Leonard Cohen masterpiece. No matter, I am a kind and charitable person and believe in helping the retarded and handicapped.

Speaking of “vast excess of fornication flatulation”… Indeed everybody knows about Joe, and now Gringo.
I get mocked and scorned for continuing to call Massachusetts my home. But in fifty years I’ve cast my vote against some of the worst of the Democrat scum in every election they ran in.
Some examples; Ted Kennedy, Barney Frank, “Lurch”, “The Squaw”, Ed Markey … etc.
Unfortunately, to be honest, I’ve also voted for Mitt Romney. Sorry about that.
Oh, and ‘fake’ Republican Charlie Baker.

…and I’m 50 more years (give or take), you’ll probably be voting reliably Democrat (from the grave yard, of course). Isn’t it amazing how reliably (D)emocrat the dead vote?
Unless those evil Republicans manage to get those election reforms they want passed – and disenfranchise the dead! 😉

I had a man in politics tell me:
“you get the government you deserve.”

Nope.
You only get to vote FOR.
He does a good job of acting senile, but on a couple of occasions, at the end of a presser, somebody has shouted out a question and he comes back with a pissed-off unscripted – not reading from notes – perfectly lucid answer, addressing the question in detail. He’s had a life-long problem with stuttering and screwing up scripted questions – so the thing to watch for is when he goes off script. It’s not often, but it happens. Of course, if he’s senile and non compos mentis, he’s got no responsibility for his actions – but if he’s not senile, then there’s conscious intent behind what he does, or tries to do. I think the reality is that the elected government is secondary to the unelected permanent government and has been that way for decades – see https://www.fff.org/2020/12/11/the-national-security-establishment-is-in-charge/

Who Am I? by Carl Sandburg
My head knocks against the stars.
My feet are on the hilltops.
My finger-tips are in the valleys and shores of universal life.
Down in the sounding foam of primal things I reach my hands and play with pebbles of destiny.
I have been to hell and back many times.
I know all about heaven, for I have talked with God.
I dabble in the blood and guts of the terrible.
I know the passionate seizure of beauty
And the marvelous rebellion of man at all signs reading “Keep Off.”
My name is Truth and I am the most elusive captive in the universe.
Duty, Beauty, Liberty, Country, Honor, Family, Faith — Plus a few simple easy to follow rules for guys
Men saw the stars at the edge of the sea
They thought great thoughts about liberty
Poets wrote down words that did fit
Writers wrote books
Thinkers thought about it
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
Many’s the road I have walked upon
Many’s the hour between dusk and dawn
Many’s the time
Many’s the mile
I see it all now
Through the eyes of a child
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
And close your eyes
Leave it all for a while
Leave the world
And your worries behind
You will build on whatever is real
And wake up each day
To a new waking dream
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Change, change come over
Change come over
Talkin’ about a change
Change, change
Change come over, now
Change, change, change come over
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light

Old tradesman, I stand corrected. How are things?
