Why Kathy Griffin Isn't Responsible For Her Actions.

I’m going to do something I never thought I’d do. I’m going to help Kathy Griffin in her bid to assign blame for her current predicament. At first glance, one would make the assumption that she alone is responsible for what is happening to her. I made the same assumption myself but after careful consideration, I have come to understand that this conclusion may in fact be incorrect. There are larger forces at play here. Forces that may indeed have driven her to do what she did and thus suffer the consequences for it.

Follow along as we delve deep into the rabbit hole of madness that drove Ms. Griffin to her descent into insanity.

There is a larger cause that explains why she did what she did but it is not Mr. Trump and his family who are responsible as she appeared to claim in her recent press conference.

She is wrong in that belief but in her defense, she is not far wrong.

If we examine the recent past and put it into context, her actions begin to make a sick sort of sense. We need only to start with Trump’s inauguration to see where the seeds for her actions were planted. You  remember the scene, don’t you? The images of people, mostly women and millennials, crying and flailing about as if being subjected to electroshock therapy. The scenes of violence and rioting that nearly engulfed the streets of DC were ubiquitous that day . Cameras panned to the images of a burning limo, broken storefront windows and people running through the streets as if possessed by demons. The ensuing weeks brought more images of violent protesting. It was if someone had cranked America’s violence level up a few notches and then stepped away from the controls. It seemed the whole country was gripped by a madness that was not to be controlled. Well, not the whole country to be honest but half at least to be sure. The side that lost was simply unable to cope with defeat. Not just defeat but defeat at the hands of man who, by the time of the election, had been denigrated and compared to Hitler and even Satan himself.

Hordes of the unhappy descended on DC to march and protest in a never ending bid to both deny Trump his rightful victory and deny reality. The “Resist” movement cranked into high gear and began to spread like wildfire spurred by the inaccurate and deceitful reporting of media organs who had previously spent the months preceding the election assuring the country that there was no way Hillary could lose. Trump was too extreme, too damaged and too imperfect to ever be elected by a thinking electorate.

In the aftermath, it was clear their predictions had been wildly wrong on so many levels that the truth of all their polling and prognostication had been 180 degrees out of phase with reality. In truth, Hillary had run perhaps the worst presidential bid in American history. Beyond that, she was easily the most flawed candidate ever proffered by a political party.

There was nearly a 70 day period when she simply vanished from the campaign trail. She held no rallies, made no speeches and ignored huge swaths of America that she would ultimately need to be victorious. Trump, on the other hand, was a dynamo of political energy, crisscrossing the country, pressing the flesh and making speech after speech to anyone and everyone who would listen.  His campaign was unorthodox, to be sure, but it resonated with average people who felt tuned into his “Make America Great Again” message.

The rest is now history as the resident of the White House now proves.

Usually so good at political post-mortems, the media chose instead to ignore the truth revealed in the election results and engage in a non-stop, daily hate-fest for all things “Trump”.

They didn’t merely make mountains out of molehills, they invented molehills and then went into overdrive to morph them into mountains. They claimed that smoke was everywhere while throwing matches onto the dry brush of everything Trump said or did. The Russian “meddling” story began to fall apart almost immediately despite their best efforts to keep it alive and relevant.

The lack of proof seemed to have the opposite effect on the media. Instead of backing away gracefully, they doubled down on the lies with more lies. Somehow, the lack of proof was actual proof of wrongdoing. The lack of evidence was evidence of a massive cover up and all they needed to do was keep digging to find the “real” truth.

Except, it wasn’t there.

What they did find ultimately was proof of the illegal use of intelligence agencies by the Obama administration and the illegal umasking of subjects of a probe that sought to influence the outcome of the election.

There was in fact an attempt to meddle in an election but not by the Russians. The meddling was done by a sitting president and others who sought to deny Trump a victory because he represented something that the DC elite feared most of all. Real, tangible change to a system so corrupt it could not afford to be exposed to the light.

I’m telling you what you already know and you’re probably asking yourself how Ms. Griffin fits into this little political morality play.

I believe she too was swept up in the Trump hate promoted by the media, the left and the professional protestor class. Her own network, CNN, was perhaps most culpable in the constant barrage of negative press coverage. While not alone in their journalistic malfeasance, they lit the torch and held it aloft for all to see and became the banner that everyone who hated Trump could flock to and find comfort.

No one, in that climate of hate and intolerance, could be unaffected for long.

When one is fed a steady diet of sugar in excess, diabetes is sure to follow. When one is fed a steady diet of cholesterol or fat in excess, heart disease is the ultimate result.

Ms. Griffin was fed a steady diet of hatred, fear and intolerance and irrational action was the result. She may not have actually believed that the picture of a beheaded Trump was funny but she certainly thought it was well justified. It’s the age old battle of nature versus nurture on public display. No one, who is sane or rational, wants to behead someone and hold the head aloft as some sort of disgusting trophy. One must assume then that this hatred of Trump and her desire to portray him beheaded to his family and the rest of America is the result of being nurtured by  forces outside of herself.

One need only to look at liberal television shows like “The View” and others to see the seeds of Griffin’s actions.

It is perfectly acceptable to wish violence on Trump and his supporters these days. Actors and media stars across the country have openly advocated the deaths of anyone who voted for or supports Trump. The cacophony of Trump hate is daily trumpeted by nearly every media source in America including social media.

Griffin was merely channeling that hatred believing that it was completely justifiable to mainstream America. If your entire circle of friends and associates all think Trump is a monster, it is impossible to be objective about your own feelings.

My guess is that Griffin simply doesn’t know anyone who doesn’t hate Trump. Armed with that knowledge, her actions begin to make a perverted sense. We all know how deeply liberal Hollywood is and what it does to those that step outside of the mindset they all seem to live under.

So who, ultimately, is to blame for her actions? Let’s start with Hillary Clinton herself. She has openly advocated for the “Resist” movement and keeps up her claims that the Russians colluded with Trump to deny her the head seat at the table of power in America. Let us also call to task CNN and the NYTimes for their roles in stoking this irrational hatred. In fact, there are few media outlets who can escape a part in the blame. MSNBC itself has morphed into the “Hate Trump” network with endless screeds and tirades devoted to exposing him as some sort of monster. Since there is plenty of blame to go around let’s also save some for Obama himself. Most former presidents simply leave DC and blend into the woodwork to allow the country to get on with its life but not him. He has remained in the spotlight in order to contribute to Trump mania and to hide his own misdeeds before the election I suspect.

His narcissism is legendary by now and true to form he sees his chance to once again “save” the country from its own bad decisions while in truth he may just be trying to save the legacy he sees Trump dismantling with alarming rapidity each and every day.

Griffin had no choice but to act as she did. It was simply the inevitable conclusion to the amount of hate she has been receiving on a daily basis. She has been inculcated into the cult of denial that currently grips the left. She is bombarded on every side by a madness that still has not found its bottom. Until now it seems. She plumbed the depths and found the bottom when she posted that picture of a bloody head. Her career is in complete freefall now with her appearances being cancelled and her public persona being burned in effigy. Even CNN has decided to cut ties with her. That alone speaks volumes about the depth of her depravity. When the network that holds its viewers in sway with a never ending diatribe against Trump has to cut you loose then you have finally gone too far. What she did cannot be called scathing political commentary nor can it be called comedy. It was neither. It was a vicious attack on the office of the President of The United States, not on Trump himself. Let’s leave aside the fact that Trump’s son Barron, was nearly traumatized by the image of his father’s head, covered in blood, being held gleefully by what can ostensibly be called a member of the media and just focus on the act itself. In no sane mind is that kind of thing ever acceptable in a world threatened with the spectre of terrorism and images of beheadings in the news almost every week.

The media has glorified and promoted the violence surrounding Trump’s win not only to increase viewership but because they truly believe it is justified. Their role in Griffin’s actions cannot be downplayed or ignored. They managed to convince half the country that there was no way Hillary could lose. Why then would those same people not believe them when they spend every single day preaching a litany of hatred towards a man who has made them all look like the fools and charlatans they really are.

Their hatred of him is not based in actual reality of what kind of president he might be though. They are part of the DC elite and their corruption is being exposed as well and they hate him for it. The media has in recent times because just as important as the politicians they cover. They see their own seat at the table of power being pulled out from under them and they are deeply frightened of being left out in the cold and marginalized.

Griffin thought herself to be an important voice in the media and she too was threatened. She simply posed for a picture that everyone in the media secretly hopes could actually happen. While they may not come right out and say it, they all wish him ill will if not a painful death.

Her reaction is one of self preservation from some terrible predator. Her mistake was in believing that Trump was going to destroy her and her tenuous hold on relevance in America today. That belief was borne out of the hate she saw every day from everyone she knew. It is not surprising really to see her lash out as she did when you factor in the wave upon wave of intolerance she was subjected to.

This does not absolve her of the final responsibility for her actions to those her found her picture horrifying but according to the left, she had no choice but to do what she did. She is a victim of her circumstances after all and not really guilty.

Trump is guilty of being Trump. He forced her to act as she did. The media is guilty because they showed her the path she eventually found herself walking. If one applies liberal logic to her actions then she is not guilty at all. Society is guilty but only insomuch as the society she sees every day is decidedly liberal. Her friends are guilty. Her employer is guilty. Everyone is guilty but Kathy herself. The cult she joined is guilty. The cult that taught her that there are no lines to worry about crossing when it comes to political dissent. The same cult that now seeks to distance itself from her and acts horrified at her actions.

Griffin is the poster child for the rage and hatred that the media tried to instill in Americans. She shouldn’t be held up as some sort of “worst case scenario” but should instead become the symbol of what can happen when the liberal media and the left seek to cause unrest because they cannot handle losing.

She is ultimately what can happen when unchecked fear and hatred are constantly reinforced.

She is the endgame that the media has been hoping for. She is the culmination of a campaign to undermine and discredit a man they all hate and fear.

How can they now act as if it was unexpected? They wanted this, didn't they? They have been inciting violence and protest since the election results were made known.

Hypocrisy, thy name is journalism.

Offended Nation

“The first Amendment is designed to protect speech from people not to protect people from speech.”

That is a quote of my own that I often use to help those who do not fully understand the basic nature of free speech. The modern idea of “hate speech” obviously flies in the face of this basic principle. The fundamental problem with the concept of hate speech is this, “Who gets to decide what actually is hate speech?”

In modern America, the “offended” get to make that decision and therein lies true crux of the problem. It is nearly impossible these days to find someone who is not offended by something. What I hope to do in this missive is to make clear what offended truly means and how to combat the ever increasing numbers of people who can no longer handle the idea of truly free speech.

Those of you reading this probably already know that the first Amendment was really designed to allow unpopular or uncomfortable speech a place in society free of recrimination.

This is no longer the case in modern America due primarily to a growing sensitivity to unpopular or uncomfortable speech. This sensitivity is most apparent on college campuses where “free speech zones” had to be created because it narrowed an area where truth might be present thus offending those who were unused to it or found it frightening. One can easily avoid a small area where truth may exist. Instead of college being a place where those attending could have their beliefs and ideology challenged by opposing viewpoints, the college campus became a place where nearly monolithic group-think became the norm. With each passing year, the concept of independent thought becomes less and less desirable in favor of falling in line with the “ideology du jour”. It's arguable that peer pressure is worse in college than it is in primary and secondary schools. The old adage, “Go along to get along” is a way of life in college. This is, of course, not something that happened recently to be sure. It's been growing worse for nearly 2 decades and what we are left with as a result is a generation of young adults who can no longer distinguish between something they may not like and something that truly is offensive. By this point, everything they don't like is offensive simply because they have not been sufficiently challenged enough intellectually to know the difference. These young people have spent their college years immersed in an environment that teaches them that to be “offended” is the most egregious thing that can happen to them.

What these young people have never been taught is that being offended is a personal choice, not an action that has been done to them. What they often say is, “What you are doing/saying is offending me.” while never realizing they have made a personal choice to be offended.

Personally, I don't get offended any more in my life. I get angry or frustrated about certain things but learning either to deal with those things by either removing myself from a situation that angers or frustrates me or by simply ignoring it altogether. Getting pissed off is something that happens to me occasionally from either external sources or decisions I have made. Being pissed off does not surrender my own personal power in any way. Being offended surrenders all my power to an external force that may or may not acknowledge or even apologize for the offense. Without acknowledgment or an apology, one cannot get the closure to an offense that is required by the person who is offended. The very real problem with acknowledgment or apology is the subjective nature of what is considered offensive. One man's joke is another man's offense such is the flimsy nature of offense.

If I tell a joke that some find funny and others do not, who is to say the joke is offensive? Usually, the person who finds the joke not funny renders a judgment that not only is it not funny, it is offensive. The person who laughs at the joke does not consider it offensive at all. The line between offensive and not funny is so fine as to be nearly invisible to some.

What we are currently experiencing is the rise of the “some things just aren't funny” army. Valiant warriors are they, determined to decide for the rest of us who may not be aware or enlightened enough to know what's funny and what isn't. They have determined for the rest of us that anything that is not funny is also offensive in some way. A joke that wasn't funny in the old days was met with complete silence. These days it's met with howls of derision and the wailing and gnashing of teeth of the offended. A-list comedians are beginning to be a scarce commodity on college campuses because the idea that some things aren't funny is blossoming into the belief that nothing is funny. Humor, by its very nature, most often comes at the expense of someone else to truly be funny whether that be a personality type or a group of people. I make jokes about my own OCD tendencies constantly because while they can be a slight burden at times, they are still quite funny when viewed in the big picture. People who are also OCD to any degree do not find those jokes offensive, at least not that I've been made aware of. I make jokes about being Italian, bald and other physical and personality quirks but those are excused because I am talking about myself.

This is the root of the subjectivity problem. If a joke about my own OCD is funny because I'm talking about myself, one must draw the conclusion that it is funny regardless who I'm speaking of. Such is not the case today though. It is perfectly acceptable for me to make light of my own quirks but the instant I step outside the line and speak of someone else's quirks I am branded offensive. A joke is either funny or it is not. Offense comes from inside the listener but not from the joke.

Thus also is truth branded offensive when used at the expense of a person or group of people. Simply saying, “Radical Islam is a serious problem both in the U.S. and the wider world.” will bring shouts of racism, an entirely inaccurate statement on it's surface, xenophobia and worse on the average college campus. Simple truth has no place in college any longer. One must instead be so nuanced as to be completely incomprehensible in the end. This is evident by the less than warm reception that speakers like Milo Yiannopolous and Steven Crowder receive when they speak at a college campus. They both speak often of the dangers of radical Islam and it's effects on our culture, our way of life and their brutal treatment of women. As a result, they are often met with protests, harsh treatment and in one recent instance, a violent mob burned and looted parts of the Berkely campus in reaction to a scheduled appearance by Milo. Disagreement with a point of view is also thought of as offensive by those with no faculty to either accept it or understand it. Once again, they chose to be offended when cold indifference would have been a much harsher criticism of Milo and his beliefs.

Offense comes from within not from without. Being offended requires you to surrender your power of self control and that too is an underlying problem with this generation. They possess no self control to allow a point of view or an uncomfortable truth they may not agree with be allowed to cross their paths. It must be emotionally exhausting to spend every day finding and pointing out all the things that are offensive in life.

The easier path for them is to become offended simply because they are no longer required to think rationally or logically when offended. Thinking rationally and logically requires a modicum of self control and intellectual discipline that they just don't have. Their immersion into the waters of “everything I don't like is offensive” is the baptism by which they have been saved. Much like religion, their belief is unshakable and immutable but also requires no hard evidence to be considered fact.

You just have to believe you are offended and that is all that is needed to change the world.

If one wished to remove everything offensive from the world there would be almost nothing left. No art, no truth, no beauty and no humor.

Ultimately, who would want to live in a world like that?

Doing Something

Doing Something

  A sad thing happened the other day: a sad thing, in a sad place, in our sad world. Another sad thing, in a long, neverending list of sad things. This sad thing, in a sad place, far, far away is "The Saddest of All Things" and demands are being put on us to stop all the sadness. We must Do Something.

  It's always, WE MUST DO SOMETHING!. Doing Something! is Who We Are. Not Doing Something! is not Who We Are. Look at this Sad Picture!, Do Something!. If you don't Do Something!, there will be more Sad Pictures!, and it will be your fault. 

And, absolutely, the pictures are sad. They are meant to be.This is how propaganda works.

Sad picture, sad parent. We simply have to do something. No, indeed,WE don't. 

  There are many reasons why Doing Something! is worse than doing nothing. Our country, for nearly a century, has been "doing something". The people, now calling for us to "do something", are the very people who hate our country for its years of "doing something".  When we, as a nation, "do something", we are blamed for everything. 

 These people, these countries, do have agency. It is simply not our place to take over for them. Their struggle, while ugly, is not ours to fight for them. We are neither a Superman - a hero to save them from themselves, nor are we Jesus - a wise all-knowing provider of Salvation from on high. Indeed, regarding ourselves as either of those is the height of hubris: we would do well to consider the craftsmanship of our pedestal.

  Finally, and probably, mostly, "Whatever it Takes" is probably, a very, very ugly thing. What is the solution to this problem? Our sons and daughters dying, for a confusing cause that no one understands? Dropping bombs, from on high, like gods again? Isn't that why ISIS is angry at us in the first place? Calling action there a national security necessity, flies in the face of the evidence that our bombs are why they are bombing us.

 Truman, did something: Oh yes, indeed-rightly so- but the people saying WE MUST DO SOMETHING, hate Truman for doing The Something that he did.

 We are being expected to play a parental role ( again hubris) and there is no one side with discernible clean hands. Our choices are ugly; we let them do ugly things to each other or we do ugly things to them, in order to stop them from doing ugly things to each other. Either way, everyone gets mad and decides to do ugly things to us. 

  If sad pictures are not motivation enough, the powers that be-while very disappointed with us-will then remind us, we must fight this battle over there to Keep Us Safe At Home. We will spend billions in a war over there-under the guise of National Security-while being afraid to do the bare minimum to stop terrorism here, for fear of offending terrorists. Stopping innocent people from flying here is abusive; bombing them all to hell is just hunky dory.  

  But if  "motive unknown" is the cause of terrorism, how is going to Syria gonna fix it? We can't even say the name of the cause, for fear of offending, but we can bomb the crap out of it?

 We don't know what the hell is going on with our government, but we are sure what is going on in Syria...please... (this our source for what is happening in Syria) .

 So you want a smaller government, conservatives? Quit nation building and sending our military everywhere. Liberals, you want a smaller military? I will tell you the same. That, right there, is something you all can reach across the aisle and agree on-if you really wanted to. Of course we know there is more to it: the beast is hungry and it needs to be fed. Our countrymen should be more than it's fodder; blood to grease the machinery.  American citizens are not Marco Rubio's troops for his personal moral crusade.

Setting The Example

Hello and welcome to the inner recesses of my mind, a place filled with questions, answers and wild assertions. As a new contributor to this blog, I thought I might dive in with both feet and take you on a tour de force of what's pissing me off this week. Together you and I, gentle reader, will explore the phenomenon of “snowflake syndrome” that has recently manifested itself in society since the election of Donald Trump. Although this piece has very little to do with politics per se and even less to do with Trump, all of that is tangentially related and will be made clear as we go along. To be honest, the roots of the problem extend far back into the Obama years and can be traced directly to the entitlement mentality he not only promoted but encouraged for 8 years. Let's just say that the seeds sown during those years have borne evil fruit that currently threatens to spoil the entire crop of young people on the cusp of adulthood. This is not simply a case of “one bad apple”, this is an entire generation of hearts and minds having been spoon fed a steady diet of how special and unique they are finally flowering into spoiled little brats with no real contribution to make to society apart from their ability to synthesize outrage at a moments notice.

Those of you reading this are well aware of the past and most likely, acutely aware of how the present is shaping up so what I thought I'd like to focus on instead in where I see the future heading.

I need only use the phrase, “snowflake syndrome” and instantly, a specific image comes to mind whether it be a physical image, a personality type or a combination of the two but regardless, you know exactly what I mean when I use it.

A few words that spring easily to mind like, spoiled, entitled, outraged, offended and soft are most often associated with this syndrome.

This particular missive was inspired by a video I saw float across my Facebook feed of a young woman berating a couple for displaying affection in public. While so much of what passes for truth on the site is often exactly the opposite, this one seemed genuine and real.

This young woman was deeply outraged that a couple would express affection in a local eatery as she ordered her food. Her disgust and outrage was real. She virtually radiated waves of hatred from her person like steam venting from a New York City sewer grate. Her eyes flashed as she breathed fire at these two for the sin of being in love. Her language was vile and coarse with vulgarities being tossed about like alms for the poor.

I watched this video dumbfounded at the the level of anger being expressed about something so benign as a public display of affection. In mute silence, I watched as the angry woman called the man's girlfriend a whore, a slut and a prostitute for daring to show affection in public. For the sake of expediency, let's call the angry woman TCB(that crazy bitch) and the other young woman IV(innocent victim).

TCB called IV a slut, a whore, and a prostitute because she was demeaning women by “sexualizing” herself in public. Possible shades of SJW in that statement but it didn't stop there. TCB was so violently upset that she threatened numerous times to call the police because their display of affection was a form of “sexual harassment” and “stalking” and she wanted them arrested.

The young man who had posted the video was the beau in question in this couple and he claims that they were embracing each other as they waited and he kissed her on top of her head setting TCB into action.

TCB was so completely overcome with indignation that within moments, most of what she claimed made no sense. She made wild accusations that the two were “fucking in public” and they should “get a room” so the patrons in the establishment would not have to be subjected to their vile actions.

Sidebar, your honor.

Like you, right now I'm asking myself how TCB didn't see her own actions as possibly disturbing to said patrons. I actually screamed that at the video as I watched it, “What about your behavior, you psycho hosebeast? Is that not offensive as well?”

The moment the words shot from my mouth I knew the answer. Well, to be perfectly honest, I had two answers that seemed equally plausible. The first option is that this woman is certifiably insane and currently not taking her meds. Essentially a younger version of the bag lady that you sometimes see screaming at lamp posts or pigeons or small paper cups on the sidewalk in any large city.

The other possible option was that she was a snowflake out to rid the world of offensive people by, well, by being offensive. Her generation believes it is perfectly acceptable to shame and insult anyone they see as “stepping outside the narrow boundaries of acceptable behavior” irrespective of the setting or venue.

That same generation can no longer make the distinction between an epic rant on Facebook and a deeply offensive display in public. They are performing a public service and woe be unto you who get in their way.

While it may be true that “snowflake syndrome” isn't actually a recognized mental disorder there can be little doubt that it is indicative of potentially dangerous mental instability lurking just below the surface.

It can only be a matter of time before that instability manifests itself in some manner of physical violence. Too many studies have linked severe emotional outbursts to physical violence for this problem to continue to be swept under the rug as merely young people being young people. That sort of thing has already happened with the Black Lives Matter movement and the “Hillary should have won” crowd that rioted in DC on inauguration day. Emotional distress leads to violence. Now, whether that emotional distress is justified or not is immaterial, it must be dealt with before the worst can be allowed to happen. It needs to be dealt with swiftly and harshly but the media refuses to believe that this burgeoning level of emotional hysteria is anything more than children behaving badly. Peaceful Tea Party protests are treated as armed rallies of radicals bent on mass murder but riots in DC are merely the venting of the fragile of spirit and should be overlooked and excused.

Like the drumbeat of “lone wolf terrorists”, this phenomenon threatens to blossom into something of far larger consequence unless it is somehow shown to be the cancer it truly is.

Imagine for a moment if TCB had simply waited outside the establishment and then shot the couple out of anger and extreme emotional distress. Or perhaps waited for them to cross the street and used her car to run them down “for the greater good”.

Mock if you will, laugh if you must but that is exactly how terrorist movements get started. All it takes is one member of the faithful to encourage others to act and before you know it, dozens of people are killed because someone forgot to show the proper respect for a transgender individual, or a Hillary voter or some other protected group that feels slighted in some way.

It is my firm belief that the current generation suffering from “snowflake syndrome” are the next potential terrorist group in the country for the simple fact that they are legion, they are angry and they can mobilize enormous numbers of like minded people at a moments notice. To me, there is no question of if, only a question of when and what weapons they will choose to wreak their vengeance on an unsuspecting society. The sheer volume of videos and the like of public shaming, protests, outrage and abuse seems to be growing in number not decreasing. It really is only a matter of time until shaming and verbal abuse no longer satisfy their need for justice and they turn to more concrete and sadly, more violent ends to prove whatever point they are attempting to make that day.

If there is a revolution in this country it will be sparked by this generation and their inability to accept that their demands are not coherent enough nor even possible to actually be met. The revolution will start when they realize they have demands but no solutions, anger without a hope for resolution and a need for justice that is too vague and ill defined to be put into practical application.

We will look back at the video of “that crazy bitch” and say, “Remember when all they did was scream obscenities? Those were the good old days.”

Fair Share

Fair Share

  A lot of angst has been expressed over Vice President Pence's tie breaking vote to defund Planned Parenthood.  The banshee screeches of "How dare MEN decide what we do with our bodies!!" ironically over the fact that these men have decided that not everyone needs to be funding what goes on with their bodies.

  Why buy the cow, when you can get the milk for free is an old proverb that recognizes the commodity that is female sexuality. The literal sale of sex is not meant, but instead the social contract of marriage, in which the female historically was provided for in a mutually beneficial relationship. Her needs, her health care, her housing, her medical care, and all costs provided. Women held on to that commodity until the contract was official. Now, thanks to the sexual revolution, women give away, no strings attached, what every man on earth wants. So, indeed, why would he sign up for a life long financial burden when he can get those same fleeting benefits for free.

  Of course modern feminism has declared marriage outdated and patriarchal. Women don't need men, marriage, or family to be successful or happy in their daily lives. They have unchained themselves from the institution and declared themselves free agents, which is all well and good, until the bills associated with such freedom start piling up. Suddenly they too, become Henny Pennys, wondering who will pay for their maternity care or prevention. How ever will they obtain the magic baby stopping beans, if society won't provide them free of cost.

Which brings us back to the notion of cows.  A cow share agreement is one where consumers of the commodity, in this case, milk, pay a monthly or weekly fee to the owner of the delivery system (cow) of the commodity, for the costs associated with keeping and caring for it. Vet bills, feed, housing, etc, split up evenly among those participating in the share system. The owner of each share obtains a prearranged  portion of the milk the animal has produced in that time period. ( selling raw or home pasteurized milk has been outlawed in most areas in the United State, the practice of cow shares is one creative mechanism for getting around restrictions) Since exchanging sex for money is frowned upon ( illegal) I propose the lady in need of funds to pay for the prevention of the products of conception make a similar agreement with those she intends on sharing her bounty  (booty) with.

I agree that it is completely unfair for her to bear this burden alone. My quibble is with the concept that everyone should be on the hook.  A woman should enter into each and every incident of sexual activity with the cost in mind beforehand. No cost sharey, no sex sharey. Simple.as.that.

Bawk Bawk.

This part sticks with me sideways...

"Contraceptive care and counseling that helped women avoid 904,000 unintended pregnancies, which would have resulted in 439,000 unplanned births in 2014."

Let's look at this for a moment.

First - If you git to fucking, there's a pretty good chance that the baby batter is gonna result in a bun in the oven, I thought this was covered in Fucking 101. Apparently 1,800,000 idiots can't wrap their heads around this. On the upside, we are a population of 33M, so statistically the percentage is pretty small.

Second - Less than half (and how the fuck are they even coming up with these numbers) of fucking is resulting in an inconvenient womb fruit. "Unplanned Pregnancy" has to be the dumbest fucking mashing of two words together out there. Yah, I get it, fucking is fun, duh. I hear tell that porn is a thing. Here's the rub, (No pun intended) no matter how and why you fuck, there is a fair to middlin chance that you are going to be chasing spittle, shit, and puke for a while as a result of that making of the beast with two backs. "What? Fucking can result in a baby?! When did this happen?!"

I can't even wrap my head around how hard to mock you for that level of being a dipshit.

Third- You are a simple asshole. You want to get your rocks off, you want to walk away afterward without a thought, and it is somehow my responsibility that you do not procreate. And I'M THE DICK for not agreeing to this?

Fuck you.

I have had no part of your wayward ways and means, but when the shit hits the fan It's my job to cover your ass?

Fuck off.

I have plenty of bad decisions of my own to deal with, a backlog actually, that I never have and never will ask you to be involved in, let alone ask you to open your wallet to ameliorate.

You getting knocked up is on you and that asshole that you let shove his meat stick up in your hoo-haw, that, resulted into a needy snot factory that you are the keeper of, like it or not.

    I wasn't in your uterus, nor will I ever be. (I'd like to think of this as a mutual unwritten contract) so don't try to drag me there.

     You fucked. The two of you own it. I don't.

Don't give me this community responsibility horse shit. If I had my way, I'll gladly drive your weed addled sponge out into wolf country and drop their shit ass off. That, I can participate in.

Jesus and Chelsea Clinton

  President Trump released his budget draft, and the left has suddenly gotten religion. What Would Jesus Do is no longer gauche, but instead the question dripping from every media pundit's quivering lip. All day on the news, on Twitter, and other social media wealthy busybodies in sackcloth and ashes, crying to the heavens "Who will feed the grannies" upon hearing that the 3% that the fed funds for Meals on Wheels is being targeted for cuts.

  Of course no national moral crisis is complete without the left's new favorite spokes model for righteous living, Chelsea 10 Million Dollar Condo Clinton, piping up on cue. She persists in popping up like a perpetual whack a mole, to dispense trite, moral, cliched wisdom. Did she suggest starting a foundation to raise funds to feed the poor? Ha HA, it's almost like she has never heard of such a thing. Did she organize a charity $30,000 a plate dinner, did she call upon her other trust fund pals and celebrities?

  No, she called upon you. Chelsea Clinton is basing her future political aspirations on her being too miserly or lazy to find private ways to fund these projects. She sees the country as an endless trust fund to be accessed at any time for any need that SHE, and other liberals, deems necessary.

 Our betters need our cash. After her mother and the rest of the media have called half of the country deplorable, suddenly she wants to appeal to our better natures. That's the crappiest part of it. We are all stupid backwoods peasants till the check comes due. Your moral code is a joke to them. Your family values sneered at. Your Jesus religion, archaic, barbarism, till they can use it to control you.

  Jesus did not tell Herod, Pilate or Caesar to feed the poor. He told you to do it. He told the rich man to voluntarily give ALL he had to the poor.  He did not tell them to stump for higher taxes. It's ALMOST amusing to me that people with means, insist on ignoring THAT bit. Using your platform to remind me that Jesus says do such and such for the poor, while you sit on a bundle of your own cash, does not fly. You can be rich and Christian, but you don't get to force others to be charitable in the name of Jesus for you.

  Render unto Caesar what is Caesar's?  Caesar is dead and we have no king.

 The government should not be our training wheels. Learning to ride a bike after riding too long with training wheels to support you,makes it harder to do without. When you see something that needs to be done, do it. Don't lean on government for it.

Our country is paralyzed to inaction... Who will feed the poor... Well you Henny Penny.. You will do it.

 Because, damn it, if it's not important enough for you, Famous Person Of Means to do, it sure the hell isn't important enough to force me to do it for you.
