Pajamas Media has a long list of notable and obvious terrorists, who, as moderate Muslims, were invited into the highest reaches of the US government. They only tell stories of high terrorists in the bosom of authority, simultaneously in authority in the US government, and in authority in Al Quaeda, neglecting to mention lowlier foot terrorists who actually carry out the killing, for example Hasan: the first terrorist to give an academic lecture with Power Point – to an Army …
Julian Assange’s “rapeâ€
Roissy has the details: The Assange “Rapeâ€: A Case Of Spurned Groupies: These girls, excited by his internet fame, pursued him, stalked him, and jumped his bones.
Julian Assange is a hero
Yes, he is a leftist, but he is an enemy of the regnant left, an enemy of the state, an enemy of my enemy. Why are all these rightists complaining when Assange makes Obama look like a dangerous lunatic and the state department look like deluded religious fanatics? Are these rightists loyal to a government that is at every level composed of men who hate them and regard them as enemies? Apparently so. What took down the Roman Catholic theocracy …
about one third banksters, two thirds …
The crisis is about one third theft by banksters, one third theft by rude, arrogant, and uncivil civil servants, and one third theft by the bastard spawn of welfare moms. The split is not between rich and poor, but between tax consumers and tax payers. I have emphasized the role of affirmative action loans in this crisis, and on the evidence, the great majority of the American dud loans were made to Hispanics – though it was highly profitable for …
If Keynesians believed what they say they believe …
Nobel prize winning economist Krugman tells us we need stimulus, that is to say, more deficit spending. Government needs to spend more to stimulate the economy, he tells us. Government spending puts money in peoples pockets. Then they spend stuff, so people get hired to produce stuff, so the newly employed get money too. Being employed rather than unemployed, they will produce and spend. So when the economy is in recession, government spending on pretty much anything is the best …
Anthropology stops pretending
Anthropology stops pretending to have contact with reality, and positions itself as pure brainwashing.
This wikileak good for the US
Pajamasmedia argues the leak is bad for the US The fact is, the WikiLeaks drop gravely hurts the U.S., not so much in what’s in the documents but in the disclosure itself. Imagine the U.S., China, Iran, Russia, North Korea etc etc all around a high-stakes poker table. WikiLeaks just took America’s cards out of her hands and plopped one of them on the table, while keeping the rest of them for its own use.  WikiLeaks has not done the …
Hurray for wikileaks
We need to spy on the state. The state is our enemy.   The government reads our emails. We should read theirs. I notice a lot of conservatives weeping big salt tears and calling for the assassination of Julian Assange because Wikileaks stole a pile of letters from the US government and made them public,   Yet most of the letters in the latest leak reveal that the US government is run by leftists at every level from top to bottom, and …
The war with Islam was lost on the playing fields of Sidwell Friends
Roissy reports how when the Washington school to which the elite send their children made a poor sporting performance, their response to losing was childish, unsporting, and unmanly. Pajamas Media reports how unsportsmanlike attitudes are inculcated, and masculinity treated as a mental defect caused by testosterone poisoning. If the Battle of Waterloo was won on the playing fields of Eton, America was lost on the playing fields of Sidwell Friends. The childish and unmanly response of the kids from Sidwell …
Decline of the west
The last man on the moon left in 1972 The tallest building in the united states was finished in 1974. Cars are becoming humbler. US electricity production was growing exponentially until 1972. After 1972 it grew more slowly. Per capita electricity consumption seems likely to have peaked around 2007 or so. Supposedly GDP is still growing rapidly, just as supposedly inflation is zero, but it seems improbable that GDP is growing when per capita electricity consumption is not. One could …
