The rumor is that George HW “Read My Lips” Bush has been telling people he’s voting for Norwegian Blue.  Apparently, the guy who repealed Reagan’s tax cuts and appointed David Souter to the Supreme Court, and whose son not only botched an unpopular (but eminently winnable) war, but also massively expanded domestic spending and entitlements, doubled the national debt, and left the border wide open while 20 million illegals entered the country… thinks that Donald Trump will be the death of the Republican Party.

But the “Oh, Good Lord, You Have Got to Be Kidding Me, Bring on SMOD, Our Culture Is Too Weak to Survive” story is this: The University of Houston is Handing Out “Emotional First Aid Kits” to college children who suffer from microagressions.

“The stress of school gets to them. Like a bad grade, a missed class, being late, a microaggression, uhh whatever,” (University of Houston psychology department advisor Bobbie Sue) Schindler said to O’Keefe about the emotional distress University of Houston students face.

This emotional first aid kit ended up containing a baby blanket, chocolates, a plush kitten, a bag containing the smell of lavender, ear plugs, a genderless pastel teddy bear, hand written notes, and a pacifier. Schindler did think students would take the pacifier the wrong way and instead said they could suggest students suck on their thumb instead.

According to PPP, 13% of voters would prefer an Extinction Level Event to a Hillary or Trump presidency.

“It’s a simple reality that both of this year’s Presidential candidates are unpopular. Clinton’s favorability is 39/54, and Trump is even worse off at 35/58. This has given rise to the ‘Giant Meteor for President’ movement, and we find that the Meteor would poll at 13%- far more support than the third party candidates actually on the ballot- with Clinton at 43% and Trump at 38%. The Meteor is particularly appealing to independent voters 27% to 35% for Clinton and 31% for Trump,”

If you spend any time on Twitter, DailyKos, or the comments section of any left-leaning website, the complete annihilation of the human race starts to look pretty good.

Oh, Good Lord

When Thinx launched their line of absorbent underwear for periods, they used a slogan that seemed to make sense: “For women with periods.” But as they heard from more and more customers who felt left out by that branding, they realized that women aren’t the only ones who menstruate.

People who can believe that “women aren’t the only ones who menstruate” can pretty much be made to believe anything.

ICYMI, Sports Illustrated — a sports themed left-wing social propaganda publication — is going to put an old naked transsexual on its cover.

Caitlyn Jenner will appear on a summer cover of Sports Illustrated wearing “nothing but an American flag and her Olympic medal,” a source reveals in the latest issue of Us Weekly.

Because society (at least the left-wing elites who run the media) are so detached from reality that they think a 66-year-old with a penis is a beautiful woman.

Mother says sex with her son is ‘incredible’ as she reveals they’re planning marriage and trying for baby.

Kim West, 51, has been in a relationship with her biological son Ben Ford, 32, for two years and believe they are ‘meant to be’ after she was forced to give him up for adoption just a week after he was born.

But the couple, who say their sex life is ‘incredible’ and are planning to get married, insist their relationship is not incest, the New Day reports.

Instead they claim it is ‘Genetic Sexual Attraction’, a term used for relatives who feel sexual attraction for each other after meeting as adults.

It’s the pseudo-scientific euphemism that makes it legit.

A single mother in what was once Great Britain did porn in order to buy Christmas presents for her son.

Megan Clara spent the last year starring in porn movies so she could afford everything on her 5-year-old son Ashton’s Christmas list. The 20-year-old UK resident says she was devastated last holiday season when Ashton complained he didn’t have the same expensive presents as his friends.

“Ashton has wanted a bike for over three years and I’ve finally been able to make his dream come true. It’s an amazing feeling. The only downside is that he now bribes me into buying him toys for being well-behaved,” she said.

There is so much ruin in this story I don’t know where to begin. Commercialized sex – check. Empty materialism – check. Passing on those values to the next generation – check. Defending all of these bad choices – check.

THE YEAR WAS 2081, and everybody was finally equal. They weren’t only equal before God and the law. They were equal every which way. Nobody was smarter than anybody else. Nobody was better looking than anybody else. Nobody was stronger or quicker than anybody else. All this equality was due to the 211th, 212th, and 213 th Amendments to the Constitution, and to the unceasing vigilance of agents of the United States Handicapper General. – HARRISON BERGERON by Kurt Vonnegut, Jr.

In America, the Government schools are actively confiscating school lunches prepared by parents that don’t conform to the edicts of Queen Michelle. Parents are being issued notes and warnings not to supply their kids with lunches.

Let the State feed your children, because when everyone eats the same (terrible) food, no one is “privileged” over anyone else.

In Australia, some social justice warriors have suggested that since children perform better academically when their parents read to them at night… parents shouldn’t be allowed to read to their children at night, because it makes some children “privileged” over others.

The State alone should be in charge of educating children, because the State will assure that everyone gets the same (terrible) education, and no one is “privileged” over anyone else.

There is also an unconfirmed report of a community college Composition Instructor who refuses to grade based on proper grammar and punctuation. Proper English is “privilege,’ you see, and no one should have the privilege of being able to communicate in English better than anyone else.

As the deranged social left taked over more and more institutions, what was once outrageous satire is increasingly becoming reality.

Man, did I pick the right time to GTFO Maryland. When people loot their own neighborhood, commit acts of violence against police and innocent bystanders, set buildings on fire, and then hack the firehoses when firefighters try to put them out… maybe they should have their “member of civilization” cards revoked.

Apparently, they don’t need no water, and left to their own devices, would let the MFer burn.

I also cannot help but wonder if this isn’t a foretaste of what will happen when America’s unsustainable fiscal and economic policies finally implode.

Update: Johns Hopkins University on lockdown; not sure if it’s because of riots or because someone was spotted on campus carrying a bag of Chik-Fil-A.

Commemorating the lives lost on the beaches of Normandy through… interpretive dance.

Bing did its usually fine job marking the D-Day anniversary with a tasteful Normandy-themed cover page. Dogpile did a nice job, too.

Google chose instead to honor Honinbo Shusaku, a Japanese Go player who was born on this day in 1829. Then, they took it down and went with a generic cover page.

Man-Hating Radical Feminist Dingbat says all sex is rape.

Intercourse is the very means through which men oppress us, from which we are not allowed to escape, yet some instances of or PIV [Ed: penis in vagina] and intercourse may be chosen and free? That makes no sense at all.

First, well intercourse is NEVER sex for women. Only men experience rape as sexual and define it as such. Sex for men is the unilateral penetration of their penis into a woman (or anything else replacing and symbolising the female orifice) whether she thinks she wants it or not – which is the definition of rape: that he will to do it anyway and that he uses her and treats her as a receptacle, in all circumstances – it makes no difference to him experiencing it as sexual. That is, at the very least, men use women as useful objects and instruments for penetration, and women are dehumanised by this act.

I am betting that the chances she makes a decent sammitch are nil.

And if you’re saying, “Surely I am excluded from her lunacy because I am a ghey,” sorry. She’s says teh buttsecks is bad too because it SYMBOLIZES the immoral penetration of a vajayjay. Masturbation … also wrong. In fact, anything that could possible make a man feel happy in any way is wrong because men suck.

She does have advice for men who want to repent of their evil rapist ways: Become a eunuch and give up all of your possessions, property, money, and rights away to women. (Check the link, I did not make that up.) Note, don’t expect forgiveness, much less gratitude, if you do give up everything you own to The Sisterhood. She will still hate you because you’re a hated penis-bearer.

But remember, to the left, what she proposes is not lunacy. Fiscally responsible and Constitutionally restrained Government as advocated by the Tea Party… *that* is considered lunacy.

Hat Tip: Jawa by way of Ace

Reports are coming into Twitter at this hour, from mainstream reporters, that Al & Tipper Gore have told friends that they are ending their 40-year marriage.

I have also heard through one of my underground sources that Tipper found Gore screwing Mother Earth in their 28,000 foot mansion in Nashville. I’m trying to see if there is a sex video.

You do realize that the Gore’s pending divorce is Bush’s Fault(tm) right??

UPDATE (From Nick): Good Grief… How I dread the thought of having to go to his house to be told what to drive, and her house to be told what music to listen to. The Holidays are going to be a HUGE pain in the ass. Of course, as always, it’s the kids who suffer the most.

Dang.  I’m surprised scientists hadn’t figured this out long before now! (h/t - Lucianne.com)

TEHRAN: A senior Iranian cleric has claimed that dolled-up women incite extramarital sex, causing more earthquakes in Iran, a country that straddles several fault lines, newspapers reported on Saturday.

“Many women who dress inappropriately … cause youths to go astray, taint their chastity and incite extramarital sex in society, which increases earthquakes,” Ayatollah Kazem Sedighi told worshippers at Tehran Friday prayer.

Maybe Algore & Co should simply cover up all the women around the world to stop Global Warming, too!  It has to be related.

Hmmm, I’d like to know what is going on in Iceland that has caused their big volcanic eruption.  Put on some clothes ladies of Iceland!  You are killing air travel in Europe!!!

This is devastating news…. for Al Gore.

Barring an about face by nature or adjustments, it appears that for the first time since 2001, Arctic Sea ice will hit the “normal” line as defined by the National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC) for this time of year.

Uh oh.

On the good side of Global Warming, here’s the forecast for Charlotte, NC this week.  Lots of sunny GW coming my way!  Yaaaay!

I mean this…. (h/t – UrbanSurvival.com)

…. is obviously Bush’s Fault ™.  What other possible reason could there be?

So clearly I intended to write this posting a LONGGGG time ago. I’ve been saving it because both of these books are two of the best I’ve read in a long time. I strongly suggest them as immediate reading. (And in case the FTC is monitoring blogs now, I did not receive any compensation to make these recommendations!)

The first is a work of fiction (I hope) and the second is non-fiction/history.  Both are related to a potential catastrophe facing the United States of America and how its citizens do (or might) respond.

“One Second After” by William R. Forstchen tells the tale of a North Carolina mountain town that struggles to survive after a massive EMP (electromagnetic pulse) attack on the USA.  The science behind the fiction is as fascinating and disturbing as the storyline.  In brief, if you explode a nuclear weapon in the atmosphere (as opposed to at ground level), the EMP will fry every type of electronic/transistor in every piece of modern machinery. I don’t want to give away much of the plot — but involves a complete breakdown of civilized society because we are so wed to modern electronics to get through each day.

How serious is the EMP threat you might ask? Chillingly real.  There has been at least one Congressional hearing on the subject each of the past several years.  Here is a link to an account of the most recent (July 2009).

If you want a great “future is now” thriller that will keep you turning pages and crapping your pants wondering when this might happen for real — definitely buy “One Second After“.

My second recommendation is a relatively “old” book (1997) that just came to my attention recently.  It is called “The Fourth Turning” by William Strauss and Neil Howe.   Here’s the Amazon.com review which sums it up nicely:

The Fourth Turning continues the project of mapping out the place of generations in history, a project begun in the authors’ earlier books Generations and 13th Gen. If millennial fever takes hold, The Fourth Turning may be only the first of an impending wave of pseudo-scholarly tracts prognosticating future (but imminent!) doom as we collectively close the books on this millennium. Those expecting a serious or dry tome might be put off by the authors’ taste for bulleted text and catchy phrasings, but can you blame these guys for wanting to make impending peril as exciting as possible? After all, they think we are headed toward “events on par with the Revolution, the Civil War, or World War II” in the next 20 years. Mixing solid understanding of present generational divisions, with some fairly broad generalizations, Strauss and Howe promise to move from history to prophecy.

Their other two books are now on my list as I’ve become fascinated with the different dynamics of generations, especially as it impacts American history and its future.  Many of their predictions from1997 are today’s headlines, so perhaps it is more impactful to read it now than when it was first published.

So there you go.  Two long overdue book recommendations from me — he who rarely has time to read a magazine!!  I read both of these quickly earlier this summer.  They are both engaging and terrifying at the same time.

My reading habits will hopefully improve since PatriotPartner got me an Amazon Kindle for my 41st birthday last week.  Yay!

Wait, I thought liberals claimed you would be committing crimes against humanity or the equivalent of denying the Holocaust if you questioned the religion of Global Warming?

I guess the BBC decided to depart from the Earthist Scripture this weekend:

For the last 11 years we have not observed any increase in global temperatures.

And our climate models did not forecast it, even though man-made carbon dioxide, the gas thought to be responsible for warming our planet, has continued to rise.

<…>

So what can we expect in the next few years?

Both sides have very different forecasts. The Met Office says that warming is set to resume quickly and strongly.

It predicts that from 2010 to 2015 at least half the years will be hotter than the current hottest year on record (1998).

Sceptics disagree. They insist it is unlikely that temperatures will reach the dizzy heights of 1998 until 2030 at the earliest. It is possible, they say, that because of ocean and solar cycles a period of global cooling is more likely.

One thing is for sure. It seems the debate about what is causing global warming is far from over. Indeed some would say it is hotting up.

Aside from the bad grammar, this is quite a liberal media breakthrough.

It also kinda sucks when the ACTUAL WEATHER gets in the way of the environmental talking points, eh?

UPDATE (from Dan): Gateway Pundit reminds us of another scientific fact: Brrrr… Antarctic Ice Melt at Lowest Level in Recorded History.

First, I give you the headline:  STUDY: Air Pollution Dimming World’s Skies (as published in the Charlotte Observer’s print edition on 3/13/09)

Now the lead paragraph:

The skies are dimming, for most of the world. Increases in airborne pollution have dimmed the skies by blocking sunlight over the past 30 years, researchers report in Friday’s edition of the journal Science.

And now the most ridiculous statement from the Associated Press that I have seen in quite some time (which doesn’t take much).

They reported that dimming is occurring everywhere except Europe, where declines in pollution have resulted in brighter skies.

REALLY?  So declines in pollution have brightened Europe’s skies, but the non-industrialized continent of Africa has higher “global dimming” than Europe??   That stretches the logic of man, weather and physics.

If Europe has been soooo good in reducing their polution, then the skies over Moscow should be experiencing brighter skies.  And what about Africa?  Is non-existent industrialization in Africa resulting in an increase in “global dimming”?   That should shoot to hell the Global Warming fanactics, eh?

The study does note brighter skies in Europe, but the AP is the one that editorializes as to the reason being “Europe’s declining pollution.”

MSM Bias — Always on display.   Global Warming Scaremongering — Never too far behind.

New research seems to strongly suggest it. (h/t – Instapundit)

The male gender is in danger, with incalculable consequences for both humans and wildlife, startling scientific research from around the world reveals.

The research — to be detailed tomorrow in the most comprehensive report yet published — shows that a host of common chemicals is feminising males of every class of vertebrate animals, from fish to mammals, including people.

And…is one study suggesting that chemicals are leading to gayness?  That’s the impression I got from this coyly-written paragraph in the news article.

And a study at Rotterdam’s Erasmus University showed that boys whose mothers had been exposed to PCBs grew up wanting to play with dolls and tea sets rather than with traditionally male toys.

Yikes.  This whole story is yet another demon to populate our nightmares in an already scary world.  And here I thought Harry Reid was enough….
