You can’t deny it, even though, during this past Presidential campaign and beyond, even many so-called conservative men claimed they wouldn’t mind it: Men don’t like being the income “also-ran” in a marriage. Read the rest of this entry »

Hmmm . . . maybe they ought to change the name of the NBC show to “America’s Got Girlie-men Islam Pimps.” After all, the only “American” judge on the show, aging Baywatch lifeguard, King of Cheese and hero to Euro-trash, David Hasselhoff, is the newest volunteer pimp for Islam and the burqa. He’s also the latest D-List celeb to recognize “Palestine.” Read the rest of this entry »

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know the global warming cultists will tell me it’s not about “global warming” anymore–that they’ve adjusted the false theory of their cult to accommodate the refutative, unseasonally cool temperatures, and that it’s now “climate change.” BTW, climate change is normal–it’s called “weather.”
Ignore their BS and check out these temps from from the latest exhibit in “global warming.” Read the rest of this entry »

I swear I’m not making this up. It’s just more of the reality show called Detroit that’s all pure comedy and–unlike other reality shows–doesn’t need scripting to be entertaining . . . and sadly hilarious.
On Friday, four Detroit Police cruisers provided an escort to two hearses carrying stuff animals to a cemetery in tribute to Michael Jackson. Yup, Detroit isn’t just a dying major city with a ton of crime and a shortage of cops. It’s a dying major city with a police department that has zero common sense and a total lack of comprehension of the absurd. Read the rest of this entry »

In my commentary, Thursday, on the 40th anniversary of the launch of Apollo 11, which resulted in the first manned landing on the moon, I said we should go to Mars, or at the very least, go to the moon again. Interviewed yesterday in a rare appearance, astronauts Neil Armstrong–the first man on the moon, Buzz Aldrin–the second, and Michael Collins (all of them in their late seventies) said much of the same: Read the rest of this entry »

The choice of an avowed liberal partisan to head up a Super Bowl organizing committee is a big mistake . . . especially in a traditionally red state.
Is James “Serpenthead” Carville really the most well-known, most powerful New Orleans resident (who is actually a Washington, DC-area resident)?
Apparently so . . . in the thinking of National Football League bigwigs and the New Orleans hoi polloi.
Carville, the “ragin’ Cajun” and major Clintonista, announced on his Sirius XM radio show that he’s going to be named chairman of the New Orleans host committee for the 2013 Super Bowl. I guess they couldn’t find anyone left who still lives there to take up the job. Read the rest of this entry »

And you thought the mainstream media and a vast swath of the populus had an inflated sense of Michael Jackson. Check out this painting Michael Jackson commissioned and which sat on the wall behind his bed at Neverland Ranch. Talk about an inflated sense of self-worth. If he really “hated himself,” you can’t tell from this painting of himself in place of Jesus at his own version of “The Last Supper.”
The only people from this photo with whom he deserves to be at the same table are fellow entertainers Little Richard, Elvis Presley, and Charlie Chaplin (and perhaps JFK). By the way, I wouldn’t put it past someone like Donald Trump to also commission something like this, featuring himself as Jesus with American History’s greats (and no, I don’t consider JFK to be a “great”).

Rhetorical Exit Question of the Day: Is inventing “the Moonwalk” equal to discovering electricity and the theory of relativity or freeing slaves?

**** SCROLL DOWN FOR UPDATE ****
As you know, today is the 40th anniversary of the first manned landing on the moon. I wrote my tribute, “America Failed to Advance in Space in 40 Years Since Apollo 11: Real Science & Imagination Replaced by Junk,” on Thursday, the anniversary of the launch.
But you knew that some celebrity would use the TV airwaves to put forth the loony conspiracy theories that it never happened. And, predictably, that loon is Whoopi Goldberg, resident Communist of ABC’s “The View,” who revealed herself a Moon Landing Truther on this morning’s show of the hour-long waste of TV air. Yup, she’s an Apollo 11 Truther. Also predictable, airhead faux-conservative Elisabeth Hasselbeck had no response (because this Ms. Vacant hasn’t a clue), and we had to rely on Baba Wawa to refute Goldberg’s bizarre questions.
Goldberg cited a Hollywood movie starring O.J. Simpson and Mr. Barbra Streisand (James Brolin) as astronauts, “Capricorn One,” to tell us that she wonders if the moon landing is real or faked, as it was in that fictional movie. Read the rest of this entry »

I already wrote my tribute to the 40th anniversary of the first manned landing on the moon–America’s manned landing–last week: “America Failed to Advance in Space in 40 Years Since Apollo 11: Real Science & Imagination Replaced by Junk,” which I posted on Thursday, the anniversary of the launch.
But let’s not forget what else happened 40 years ago over the weekend. Today’s Detroit Newsistan features a reprinted front page from the paper that appeared on July 21, 1969. It harkens back to a day when that paper actually reported stories, instead of being a birdcage liner held captive by fabricators and Islamo-panderers (but I repeat myself).
And at the bottom of the page is a story of a murderer–perhaps a murderer of two, since as the late Leo Damore reported in “Senatorial Privilege: The Chappaquiddick Cover-Up,” Mary Jo Kopechne was pregnant, perhaps with Ted Kennedy’s unborn child. Today, we celebrate that murderer and are told to feel sorry for him because he has cancer, even though his victim(s) never lived to see life beyond the torturous death in water. Yes, today’s Republicans, like Marc Sanford and Jon Ensign are lowlifes and narcissists who should resign. But at least they never murdered anyone. . . and got away with it.

I just heard the news that former CBS anchorman Walter Cronkite died. And perhaps I will be one of the few with the guts to be real and say it: I’m not sad to see this overrated liar go. Buh-bye.
At 92, Cronkite enjoyed a long and glamorous life, unlike many of our late teen and 20-something American troops against whom he editorialized on a nightly basis. They died on the killing fields of Vietnam in no small part because he contributed to the video demoralization of America and the resulting lack of commitment to help our boys win the Vietnam War.
I’m sure that Cronkite will be remembered gushingly by all of the liberal mainstream media robots whom he spawned and who idolize him (and probably many gutless idiots on the right, too). In so many ways, he is their Michael Jackson, minus the creativity and talent. In life, they already exalted Cronkite far, far beyond what he deserved and completely ignored his awful transgressions against our country.

Walter Cronkite Defeated America on TV
But the man they called “The Most Trusted Man in America” was really something far different: The Most Destructive Man in America. And that is how he should be remembered. He had the blood of thousands of American men–some of them really just boys–on his hands.
We may have lost the Viet Nam War on the ground because of half-hearted bureaucrats and politicians, not least among them Defense Secretary Robert McNamara who also recently passed away. But, well before that, we lost the war in a far more important theater–domestic America–because the Viet Cong’s top media general on TV, Walter Cronkite, led many offensives against our troops, every single evening.
Cronkite fought against America while in Vietnam, where he covered the Tet Offensive and lied about it to American wives, parents, and siblings of our boys on the battlefield. While the 1968 Tet Offensive was actually a victory–a tactical defeat for the Communist Viet Cong–you’d hardly know it, since Cronkite covered it as an incredible loss and gave fuel for the anti-war movement’s fire and its allies in the Congress and in Hollywood (Hanoi Jane, anyone?).
And it is in Cronkite’s coverage of Tet that America lost the Vietnam War. Most military historians regard it as the decisive battle in the war because it shifted American public opinion against the war. And Cronkite is the head atop that rotten fish.
A month later, instead of just “covering the news” in this constant lying manner, Cronkite began editorializing and delivered a scathing commentary against America’s war efforts.
Cronkite’s slogan was, “And that’s the way it is.” But if it came out of his mouth, you could be sure of one thing: that’s the way it wasn’t.
The left idolizes this man because they credit him with helping end the Vietnam War. But let’s be honest. He didn’t help end it. He helped lose it. We eventually lost it on the field because we lost it on television, first. Vietnam was the first American war shown nightly on television news. And Cronkite was the Just Lose It crowd’s Commander in Chief in that theater.
Our half-hearted efforts in Vietnam, in large part because of Walter Cronkite’s on-air attacks, have had long-lasting effects, decades later. Even Osama Bin Laden has cited them in his lack of fear in attacking America. He studied our military history, with Vietnam as its cornerstone of cutting and running. That is Walter Cronkite’s legacy. So are the generations of liars who modeled themselves after him and have spent decades on TV news tearing and dumbing down America from within.
I can’t be nice and say that Walter Cronkite should “rest in peace.”
To do so would be to ignore the posthumous wails of the restless ghosts of over 58,000 dead Americans who lost their lives so that Walter Cronkite could be a star and Vietnam could solidify its communist tilt. That’s not to mention our 153,000-plus wounded.
It is the souls of these proud Americans that I pray rest in peace, not that of the man who helped perpetrate their loss. He is soulless.
Only they–Walter Cronkite’s tens of thousands of victims–can forgive this evil man for his transgressions and journalistic crimes against them. Sadly for Cronkite, they’ve gone to a better place.
And he’s rotting somewhere else.
