Yes, the Left is that Stupid

Original Article

Posted By: Magnante, 9/2/2021 4:03:50 AM

We’ve been hearing a lot of speculation that the Afghan debacle is more than it seems – that rather than being a typical outcome of activity by some of the dumbest, most ill-informed, and most blinkered individuals ever to occupy places in the U.S government, it is instead a dark, convoluted conspiracy aimed at some goal sinister beyond words. Some of this is from the usual suspects who see conspiracies every time a cat falls out of a tree, and some by more reputable people. The core concept here can be expressed simply: “There has to be something else going on. Nobody could be that stupid.”

Disagree, J R, on the basis of (Michael) Savage’s Razor which states: Never ascribe to STUPIDITY what can be accounted for by MENTAL ILLNESS. The Left is simply mentally Ill.

First, the author failed to list the key players in the Afghanistan abomination - Blinken, Sullivan, and Rice. Austin and Milley failed to assert the military position in a military matter. Second, my first job after undergraduate school was as an underwriter for a major insurance compoany. And I lit my desk on fire. I was a legend.

Not buying it either. The hatred by this "administration" of America and Americans is palpable. He referenced Occam's Razor. To me the simplest explanation is the most obvious, they intend to destroy America. If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, it's probably a duck.

Obama and the million muslims that he inserted in all levels of the government may have a little something to do with the current support of muslim terrorists. Just pointing out the obvious. It is in Mohammed's playbook after all.

No. The Left is that EVIL! They coordinated to STEAL an election.They cancel every pro-American policy put in place by PDJT, to the detriment of this country. They flood our streets with illegals and now Afghans. They intentionally surrender to an enemy we had in check and they leave hostages behind so they can fork over tons of money to support the Caliphate. The Left is cunning and evil and Obama's fingerprints are all over this!

Every day I say I am surrounded by stupid people. Case in point is the latest from the CDC. Unvaccinated should not travel even though the vaccinated are the sink for the mutations leading to new strains and carry a large load of the virus if infected (and themselves are not highly affected). The vaccinated have nothing to fear from the unvaccinated, the unvaccinated are the ones who have evaluated their situation and may be at risk for a disease that in most healthy people is no worse than a cold. The phrase "follow the science" infuriates me to no end since the emitters of that phrase are usually, as this article refers to it, STUPID.

No they are not stupid they think we are stupid. And those classic "stupid" acts were the byproduct of hubris and a complete lack of concern for the consequences of being wrong which happens with concentrated unchallenged unbalanced power.

I sorry to say, but the author, Mr. Dunn is absolutely right. The left thinks stupidly and as result, everything they touch turns to excrement. The Dems have not had a good president since Harry Truman, even though he was a steadfast New Dealer. Biden must be removed and we take our chances with Harris. By the way, what has happened to the audit in Arizona and the proposed audits in the other states that had close races like GA, PA, MI, WI, etc.? And where’s Durham?

That's bull. This was planned, this was carried out by Biden because he is compromised by the Chinese. The Chinese own Joe Biden. Have you heard anything recently about Hunter Biden, didn't think so. Why, the Chinese own our media and the Bidens. Biden's corruption and Hunter Biden's sick lifestyle are all in the Chinese hands. They expose it and Biden falls in total disgrace. No military will leave their people behind and no military will leave the enemy 90 billion dollars worth of military equipment. Trump said it years ago, if Biden got in the Chinese will own this country. He was right.

Kamala Harris has been the undisputed champion of syllable salads since her inauguration as vice president in January 2021. But in recent times, her admirers have begun to lose patience. It had been four long months since she has delivered her characteristic verbal devastation. She had almost faded away into oblivion, making few public appearances. It led many to wonder if she had it in her to deliver her infamous alphabet soups again. On January 31, Harris shut down all those wagging tongues as she made an ignominious comeback.

The narrative about "free, safe, secure elections" changed 180 degrees since November 2022. Almost nobody is crazy enough to say America has free, fair elections. After Kari Lake and Adam Laxalt, the most wimpish George Bush RINO hesitates to say "elections are fair." Since our team processed billions of election roll "snapshots" taken since 2020, we run the largest election database in the world. We concluded that U.S. elections are rigged by both parties, and they are rigged with the active help of election officials or their acquiescence.

Bloomberg, which exists to serve active traders on Wall Street, is throwing shade on the January jobs report that “surprised” a lot of people with its positive numbers. Before addressing the technical factors used to produce the rosy numbers, consider the buried lede hundreds of words into the piece. Stripped of all the technical jargon is this stark reality: "On an unadjusted basis, payrolls actually fell by 2.5 million last month."

Tucker Carlson began his top-rated Fox News program with a startling and disturbing comparison of the treatment of Joe Biden’s family with the way that children of dictators are treated in places like Iraq under Saddam. (hasty transcription by me) You know you’re living in a non-democracy when it’s dangerous to displease the ne’er do well children of the supreme leader.

What's the celebration all about in Minnesota? (snip) The answer is a celebration about abortion, or "reproductive rights" as they call it these days. After Roe was overturned, we knew that states would decide the issue on their own. And so they did. Elections have consequences as we see in a 34-33 party-line vote. And in Minnesota they had a huge celebration to go with it. Not one Democrat had the guts to stand up and look at the abortion fanatics and say: This is too much. You can't go this far.

Mark Steyn has been lamentably missing from his regular appearances and occasional guest hosting of Tucker Carlson’s Fox News show, having signed on for a weekday program at the UK’s GBNews. Thus, many of his American fans including me had no idea that he was on “medical leave” recently. It turns out, Mark has just revealed, that he has suffered 2 heart attacks. Looking perhaps a bit thinner than before, he returned to the air with a characteristically whimsical announcement that he is “still alive.” The two-minute video is essential viewing for all Steyn fans

Let’s cut to the chase: Did Joe Biden remove classified documents from the National Archives that would incriminate him in the influence peddling racket he and his family were running?

Pete Buttigieg Says Biden Is TOO Successful

Transportation Secretary and Chasten’s wife — er, husband, Pete Buttigieg, went on NBC’s Meet the Press on Feb. 5 to preview Joe Biden’s State of the Union address. During that appearance, Buttigieg claimed that Joe Biden is just so wildly successful as president that his accomplishments cannot be easily distilled — hence Biden’s low approval ratings. Yes, Mayor Pete actually said Biden is extremely unpopular because he’s too good at his job. Buttigieg rambled out a justification of the Biden administration allowing an apparent Chinese spy balloon to cross the U.S. before shooting it down over the ocean (where, quite conveniently, no one can pick up tell-tale debris as enlightening evidence).

The art dealer representing Hunter Biden said the president's son had the potential to be one of the most influential painters of the modern era, but declined to say whether he'd cooperate with a congressional investigation into sales of the art. Georges Bergès, who has been overseeing the sale of Biden's paintings, said the 53-year-old would 'become one of the most consequential artists in this century.' His comments came as the New York Post pressed him on whether he would comply with requests from the House Oversight Committee, which asked to see the names of individuals who purchased Biden's artwork and the price they paid for it.
Top general says previous spy balloon

The military did not detect previous flights of Chinese spy balloons over the U.S. that took place during the Trump administration, a top general said Monday, due to a "gap" in the Defense Department's ability to track certain airborne objects. Gen. Glen VanHerck, head of North American Aerospace Defense Command, cited the issue as the reason that at least three spy balloon flights were not briefed to senior Trump officials at the time. "So those balloons, so every day as a NORAD commander it's my responsibility to detect threats to North America," he told reporters at the Pentagon. "I will tell you that we did not detect those threats.

Rep Waltz says current Pentagon officials briefed him over the weekend and said Chinese spy balloons crossed over Texas and Florida during the Trump years. Waltz then dropped this bomb. Rep. Waltz said that General Mattis was Secretary of Defense at the time and decided not to inform President Trump because the Pentagon thought Trump was “too provocative and aggressive!” This is a treason if true. Mattis put the US in danger, offered comfort to the enemy, allowed Chinese spying on US installations, and then hid this from his superiors, including the President of the United States.

"Nonbinary" singer Sam Smith's duet with transgender artist Kim Petras for their song, "Unholy," featured Smith wearing Devil horns, while Petras gyrated in a cage against the backdrop of flames. Dancers dressed as demons bowed and crawled around Smith. "This…is…evil," Cruz wrote in response to a tweet of the performance shared by conservative commentator Liz Wheeler. "Don't fight the culture wars, they say. Meanwhile demons are teaching your kids to worship Satan. I could throw up," she remarked.

America's Civil War, which raged from 1861 to 1865, was by far the bloodiest conflict in our history. Original estimates put the death toll at about 620,000, including some 360,000 Union and 260,000 Confederate dead. More recent estimates of the carnage are even higher: 750,000 to 850,000. The Battle of Antietam on Sept. 17, 1862, at Sharpsburg, Maryland, still ranks as the bloodiest day in U.S. history, with nearly 23,000 casualties on both sides, including 3,675 killed in action. How does a country possibly recover from a calamity so huge?

The president will be delivering his first speech to a divided Congress, tasked with bringing a unifying message to a Republican-controlled House of Representatives and a Democrat-held Senate. But before he even begins, Biden's address is already likely to be overshadowed by the recent diplomatic incident caused by a suspected Chinese 'spy balloon' floating over multiple U.S. states
