I will bet everything I own, The Washington Post will NOT run an article on Inauguration Day - explaining ways to impeachPresident Biden - the way they did to President Trump.
If anyone thinks such things will soon be forgotten - or forgiven - you, too, "have a dream" we will NOT be reaching, anytime soon.
Two mature takes, on President Obama's 2009 Nobel Peace Prize nomination, we did NOT hear regularly in the news: 1) it was like giving an Academy Award to a Director in the hopes he'll make a great film one day (which he never did) and 2) Obama became Jimmy Carter faster than Jimmy Carter became Jimmy Carter.
The newspapers said just the opposite.
Here's Hitchens in 2009, noticing Obama and Hillary Clinton's "unbelievably patronizing attitude toward the Heartland" - one of the very things that led to President Donald Trump's win in 2016 - which is a long time for Obama to have been an asshole,...without him, his supporters, or the media, noticing.
They didn't notice Hillary's first, real political act was to actively humiliate a black guy. So, they also did NOT notice, it wouldn't be the last time the Clintons decided ambushing a black person could earn them a ticket on the road to riches.
American newspapers don't print anything, the way it is, anymore.
Before it was fashionable to call people "cult members", Hitch was already saying the Clintons knew how to create them, but the media, generally, hasn't ever been reporting that.
Especially not this cult member.
I pity poor Francis Wheen, who wrote his great books on it, nobody (else) read.
Think about it: She's the NYT's example? That obscure woman is the one who's gonna show us all how hard it is to bring people back to reality? Really? All because she's a NewAge Republican? Oh. My. God. In no particular order:
Guess who else is a NewAge Republican?
And he's the real thing, too - a true NewAge quack - dragged before the U.S. Congress, once, for selling "magic beans" on American television.
But while the NYT complains of message-spreaders, and how hard it is to bring people back, they haven't devoted one inch of space to worrying one minute that, over all these years, nothing has gotten through to this man - who has an internationally released TV show hawking quackery - and no one has ever seriously tried to get through to him. Not Oprah. I never expected it of the NYT.
If they did, they'd have reported his wife, Lisa Oz, also has a little untreated problem recognizing "up" from "down" - as evidenced by Wikipedia listing her credentials as "Author, radio and television personality, Reiki master" - as though "Reiki master" was a real thing, and not the acknowledgement she's a kooky cult member. Which, in that, she's not alone nowadays.
Today, the Democratic Party talks about American politics, and American history, like it began, and ended, all with Donald Trump. But that's not true.
The levels of "sordidness" their supporters have been nudged into accepting over all these years - whether it's Bill and Hillary Clinton killing Ricky Ray Rector to distract from Gennifer Flowers, all the way to the media's hiding Democratic donor (and Hillary pal) Ed Buck, and his murder spree during the Trump administration, while relentlessly accusing the President of racism - it's all extraordinary. But absolutely will not be spoken of.
The party lies (not one man, like Trump is usually accused, but the entire party) lies, and lies, and lies - about everyone and everything - but, as if in a NewAge trance, their supporters accept it all, as though there's some virtue to be found in it. With the press playing along.
Consequently, what effect all those gurus and life coaches and "spiritual advisors" are having on the Clinton's integrity - and that of the Democratic party - has probably been greatly overlooked.
I mean, we've all heard Marianne Williamson by now - a so-called "spiritual advisor" to both Hillary and Oprah Winfrey. Listen to this clip and see if you can understand why two supposedly-super-intelligent women would be listening to this fruitcake. How did she make it on the Democrat Party's big stage?
She's a fruitcake who oversaw a lot of a gay deaths as she spread misinformation and pseudoscience during the AIDS Crisis. But, even with THAT morally-atrocious background, she's still accepted by the Democrat Party in the age of the COVID pandemic. Sex and death - and still pitching themselves as "the party of Science" with her in it - all meeting again.
Does anyone remember the Clinton's bombing of an African asperin factory, to distract from Bill having sex with Monica? It's funny how the ANTIVAXX promoter, Robert de Niro, should remember, but - with his NewAge antivaccine clique - he, too, seems more intent on protecting the Clintons, instead.
It's pretty amazing.
Somehow, even trying to remind people that Bill raped multiple Democrat women - women Hillary harassed for years, and even killed their pets - gets overlooked under the media's relentless crush of Trump hatred.
But, it's interesting how, in the Christopher Hitchens clip above, he discussed the Clinton's now-historical propensity for mixing sex and death, whether it's hurting people (Ricky Ray Rector, African villagers) to cover-up an affair, or Hillary laughing hysterically when Gaddafi got a butcher knife up his ass. Seeing Kamala Harris was sleeping with TV's talking-to-the-dead-scammer makes you wonder if the whole party's not infected with their sexual morbidity today. They'll definitely do anything to see it carry on.
11.40am/2016 Clinton tells supporters: “We must accept this... Donald Trump is going to be our president,...we owe him an open mind and a chance to lead.”
“Within 24 hours of her concession speech, [campaign chair John Podesta] assembled her communications teamto engineer the casethat the election wasn’t entirely on the up-and-up. For a couple of hours, they went over the script they would pitch to the press and the public. Already, Russian hacking was the centerpiece,...”
More psychological "projection" from the Democrat Party:
Here are Eric Swallwell and James Comey in 2017, pretending to discuss and attack President Trump (by publicly outlining all the ways a politician can be compromised by a foreign government) right after - we now know - Comey had already privately warned Swallwell that it was Swallwell who had been compromised by a Chinese spy. That conversation was never mentioned, here, except in this oblique, and totally dishonest, fashion.
Because, as they prove over and over again, the Democratic Party respects their voters - and the American people - and the truth, so very much.
"The whole country has turned into bitch-assed niggas."
And those bitch-assed niggas just stole an American election. So, now, they're not just being a buncha bitch-assed niggas, but they're also back to being unjustifiably SMUG about being a buncha bitch-assed niggas. And, somehow - they think - that's gonna translate into "unity" with an administration featuring a woman who'd sleep with Montel Williams. They've completely lost the plot.
If you'll watch this CONAN clip, above, you'll learn Professor Brian Cox thinks the greatest danger we face is "stupidity", which he defines as an interest in A) Deepak Chopra B) homeopaths, and C) astrologers.
Well, what do you know? Three aspects of The NewAge Movement, still promoted (for no good reason) that no one else is particularly worked-up about.
Wikipedia: "Most Wednesdays (and sometimes on Fridays as well during the summer), self-proclaimed psychic Sylvia Browne was Montel's guest, and performed psychic readings of guests as well as discussing her ideas about spirituality and the afterlife. Her predictions have been the target for much criticism, and her psychic abilities explained as cold reading by critics such as Robert S. Lancaster. She [chickened out of] the One Million Dollar Paranormal Challenge from James Randi, a prominent skeptic."
President Jimmy Carter (who once claimed to have seen a U.F.O.) was used by San Francisco Supervisor and People's Temple member, Harvey Milk, to steal a child for Jim Jones, before the cult leader murdered 900 black American citizens, including that child. This was left out of the Sean Penn film, Milk, which - along with unrelenting Democratic Party propaganda - turned that totally despicable creep, who shouldn't be remembered by anyone, into "Harvey", the beloved gay icon, worshipped by progressive children and parents today.
President Bill Clinton, along with sexually exploiting an intern, raped four other Democrat women, lying about all of them, without punishment to this day. (He's also studied under Ken Wilber, a "guru" who shares his practice with a known rapist, Marc Gafni, of Whole Foods fame). Then-First Lady Hillary Clinton harassed the women Bill raped, consulted "psychics" (including recent Democratic Party Presidential Candidate Marianne Williamson) and destroyed healthcare as we know it.
Despite going to the White House anyway, President Barack Obama immediately lost all credibility by campaigning with Oprah Winfrey (America's #1 promoter of frauds, quacks, and con men) before making Hillary Clinton his Secretary of State (where she was so good, she brought slavery back to Libya) and, finally, by using the President's bully pulpit as a stand-up comic's mic - to roast his successor - President Donald J. Trump. Obama now has NO political legacy beyond being the nation's First Black President.
These two, together, are just the Democratic Party's latest embarrassment - on a national or international scale - to come.
