If you listen to social justice warrior, and actually believed them, you would think our problem is too many dead white males. Well the Treasury Department has announced plans to ease one despicable dead white male, and democrat Andrew Jackson off the face of the twenty dollar bill and replace him with a gun toting, freedom fighting republican woman, Harriet Tubman.
As for myself, I figure Tubman is about as good as we going to get from the Obama regime. For their part, you’d think the social justice warriors would be happy. As always, they are not, from Steven Hayward, Power Line:
Leftists Lose Their Lunch Over the Tubman 20
After years of complaining that America’s paper money featured only dead white guys, a lot of folks on the Left are in a snit that Harriet Tubman is going to replace Andrew Jackson on the face of the twenty-dollar bill. You can practically hear them: “We didn’t mean a gun-toting, Bible-believing Republican black woman! We meant Angela Davis!”
Moral honesty and consistency are too much to expect from a social justice warrior.
You know, I can’t help but Wonder, Ben, if the reason Al Jazeera signed off was because given what laughingly passes for mainstream media in this country, it wasn’t a duplication
Restrooms have traditionally been segregated by sex, to wit men’s rooms and women’s rooms. Public restrooms are either designed for males or females. Hint, men’s rooms have urinals. Further, sex is an immutable god given trait We were conceived as either a male or female and will die as such.
The idea that we can freely choose or change our sex, like changing a pair of socks, is pure rubbish. Curt Schilling dared to offend the speech police by making the common sense suggestion that me not be permitted to use the women’s room, image:
Is this the type of person whom you feel should be sharing a girl’s room with your daughter?
Reax, Right Wing News:
Transsexuals are of course sacred to liberals, who regard it as so intolerable that anyone would not encourage male deviants to use private facilities intended for women and girls that many musicians who are past their prime and struggling to regain relevance (Bruce Springsteen, Ringo Starr, Pearl Jam, Bryan Adams) noisily refuse to perform in states like North Carolina where this is not allowed
Yet is the left which accuses conservatives of waging a War on Women?
You let your country down. I will not forget.
That is all
Let’s Ponder this one for a minute. Donald Trump, according to the reports I’m seeing this morning got something like five hundred thousand votes in New York City. Wheres, Hillary Clinton got over a million. Think….Bad as she is she got over twice the number of Voters.
Will someone please explain to me how in the name of Sanity anyone expect Donald Trump to win in the general over Hilary Clinton?
If Donald Trump wasn’t running for president himself, what candidate would he be supporting, do you suppose?
If history is any guide, he’d be supporting the leading candidate from both the Democrat and Republican parties.
Ponder the implications.
I’ll let this internal Memo from the Trump campaign explain to you what this is all about
So much for making sure that all votes count
The Snark of the Day, Donald Trump:
“I wrote this out, and it’s very close to my heart,” he said at a rally in Buffalo on Monday night. “Because I was down there and I watched our police and our firemen down at 7-11, down at the World Trade Center right after it came down.”
Hat tip: Dan Spencer, Red State.
Will this be the day they stop picking on Donald?
Me, elsewhere….
If the truth is insulting, maybe the problem isn’t the truth teller.
But let’s examine these New York values were talking about? Are these values the same that caused New Yorkers to elect Hillary Clinton and Chuckles the Clown Schumer consistently? The cause them to elect the Socialist mayor Bill de Blasio? That caused them to vote overwhelmingly Democrat in every election since Reagan? Yes, I believe we are. Any more dumb statements you’d like to add?
There’s an awful lot being made just now reports that Donald Trump is doing very well in New York Pennsylvania and California.
( Leaving aside the fact that the majority of the reports that I’m seeing coming out of those states show Trump at less than 50%.)
But, let’s try a little thought experiment, you and I.
Here goes….Why would Donald Trump be doing extraordinarily well in the traditionally liberal stronghold of New York Pennsylvania and California?
Seems to me that what we’re looking at is a tacit admission that Donald Trump is not a conservative, hmmm?
Edit: side note to David. Noticed your addendum and liked it. Not quite sure why it disappeared though I suspect it’s because I forgot to refresh my database on this end. My apologies
Words of wisdom from Hips to Big to Fail, New York Daily News:
Gun violence and killings by police are “part of the same threat” that faces young African-Americans, Hillary Clinton told a congregation in Westchester Sunday.
“Guns are not the answer to anything,” Clinton said while stumping at Grace Baptist Church in Mt. Vernon. “They are the answer to nothing except pain and heartbreak and ruined lives.”
Clinton has made a group of mothers whose children were killed by gun violence or in police custody a core part of her campaign, and was joined by three of them Sunday.
No word yet on when, or if, Mrs. Clinton plans to give up her armed Secret Service protection.
It is silly world in which we live. New York State co-ed asks the Mummy, John Kasich, how to avoid sexual assault. Kasich tells her, in part, to obey the law. Social Justice Warrior fit to tied. video. Note the co-ed was circa eighteen. The legal drinking age in the Empire State is twenty-one. Evidently the idea of minor women staying sober and not getting sexually assaulted offends social justice warriors.
Comrade Bernie
Team Bernie is not happy with the T-Shirt and related merchandise.
The idea of private property anti-revolutionary, capitalist. It is the collective Bernie. Practice what you preach.
Playing the trump card on Donald, from
Leon H. Wolf, Red State:
The only problem is that it requires Trump supporters to remember way back, back to the days before the primordial ooze was formed, six whole months ago, which is farther back than any Trump supporter can recall at all. At the time, Trump was being pressed gently about two facts: 1) that his companies tended to go habitually bankrupt, leaving his creditors in the lurch and 2) that he once attempted to use eminent domain to screw an old woman out of her home so he could build a limousine parking lot for one of his casinos.
Trump’s response to these undoubtedly true charges was “I took advantage of the laws of this country and did what any businessman would have done.” There was no justification offered for why these actions were right or fair; they were legal and they helped Trump get ahead, so his minions actually used them as evidence that Trump was a brilliant business man possessed of great foresight.
Now comes Ted Cruz, and he is showing Donald Trump how ruthless calculation is done.
When Trump screws investors he calls himself a smart business man. When Ted Cruz reads, understands, and uses the political system, Donald complains the system is rigged. No Donny, the system isn’t rigger. You are lazy.
I don’t know about you guys but I’m getting damn tired watching drug prostitute himself and his organization for the Donald.
Earlier I compared Donald Trump to Phineas Taylor Barnum. My analogy was in error. P.T. Barnum at least knew how to run a circus. A better comparison to Trump might be Jesse Ventura who run for Governor of Minnesota as a joke but won and got stuck in office.
The Trump campaign is stuck on stupid, video:

Mean while back in the land of the sane, Ted Cruz is making reasonable sounding comparisons, video:
Cruz may not ooze charm, but he is both polite and reasonable. That would put him two up on Dim Won.
Over at National Review online, Rich Lowry puts together is good analysis of what’s happening on the ground as I have seen yet:
Maybe the Trump campaign will radically improve its delegate-selection game or perhaps Cruz hurts himself in some fundamental way in coming weeks, but barring those things or some unforeseen event, it is going to be a Cruz-friendly crowd on the floor of the Republican convention in July. It is a mistake to think of delegates as insiders as we usually think of the term. Yes, some of them are state party officials, but many more of them are activists. Very few of them will be naturally inclined to share the hostility to Cruz of Washington and certain parts of the donor class. On top of this, the Cruz campaign is out there doing all it can to make sure supporters are selected as delegates. This is why if Trump is a good distance away from 1,237 — say, short 50 delegates or more (100 would be safer) — you have to favor Cruz at a convention.
The indications I’m seeing now suggests it isn’t even going to be that close. For all of this whining and carrying on that the Trumpkins are treating us to about how they’re going to shove Romney or John Kasich, Jeb or somebody down our throats again, the fact of the matter is there’s no way that’s going to happen. Slow the GOP maybe, but it’s not suicidal.
And before you start in about how NR is the house organ for the GOP, and that Rich is swinging the bat for Ted Cruz, let me set you straight. The GOP establishment is scared to death of Ted Cruz and rightly so. Moreover, Rich Lowry the last I looked was no major fan of Ted Cruz, either.
Ted Cruz will be the nominee.
