For the first time in history, there are 4 company’s that have Trillion dollar valuations: Microsoft, Amazon, Google and Apple.
And together they present the acronym…
Lastly, if further proof were ever needed the crazy uncle in the Dimocrats’ attic has completely lost it, here it is:
In the past, Biden has repeatedly claimed this idiotic response is a quote from a John Wayne movie, though the Duke himself would beg to differ. When asked whether Hairplug Joe’s highly questionable assertion was accurate, he tersely responded…
As for what thought Biden was trying to convey, you’ve got us by the gonads.
Now, here’s The Gouge!
We lead off the first edition of February with another piece of Progressive propaganda posing as precise reporting, courtesy of Tucker Carlson:
What Tucker inexplicably omitted was Mara Gay suggesting to serial liar Brian Williams she was the daughter of a man who lived in Jim Crow Detroit:
FYI, Mara Gay was born in 1989; our three boys were born between 1983 and 1989, and during and since that time, Detroit has had nothing BUT Dimocratic mayors.
We were born in 1955, and with only 12 years of respite, Detroit has been under Dimocratic governance since 1948. So PLEASE, tell us again about the impact of Detroit’s Jim Crow laws on your father?!? Besides, if memory serves, Jim Crow laws were created by Dimocrats!
Next up, as promised and courtesy of Steve Boss, we present Walt Meisen’s chilling tale of the deadly, dreaded Beast of Arkansas, which has claimed almost as many lives as the H1N1 virus:
Dear Jonah Goldberg: NOW do you understand why we voted for Trump…and will do so again in November?!?
Since we’re on the subject of useless parasites who feed off the body politic, courtesy of NRO, Michael Brendan Dougherty asks and answers…
“…If Romney really believes that Trump is acting akin to a “tinhorn dictator,” as he claimed in his explanations, he would logically be obliged to overcome his policy differences with Trump’s rival Democratic candidate in 2020 and endorse him or her, or explain why Mayor Pete Buttigieg or Bernie Sanders is worse than a tinhorn dictator. I suspect he won’t. And when he doesn’t, he’ll once again have found a public persona and identity at the cost of candor and coherence.
At the risk of alienating any readers who have stuck with me, perhaps this is the downside of all the things I admire about Mitt Romney’s Mormonism.Romney takes grave and costly moral stands and reverses them with unsatisfying and incoherent explanations. His Church does the same — on polygamy and on the admissibility of black people to the universal priesthood of his Church. The Church digs in, firing thunderbolts at its critics. And then apolitical opportunity (statehood) or a political cost (boycotts led by the Reverend Jesse Jackson) comes into view. No coherent explanation is given for the change; no rational account of God’s provident change is offered. A revelation just comes from on high. (Just like Joseph Smith’s original “revelations”!)
In one of his rollout interviews, Romney was asked if this vote signaled his ambitions for higher office. According to the report: Romney “erupted in laughter. ‘Yes! That’s it! They caught me!’ he proclaimed. ‘Look at the base I have! It’s going to be at least 2 or 3 percent of the Republican Party. As goes Utah, so goes the nation!’”
Well, there it is, the great revelation. From his 2012 campaign, we know of Americans, he holds 47 percent in contempt. Now we know that of Republicans, the percentage rises to 97 or 98. He doesn’t seek the esteem of the New York Times, which is fickle. And he understands that he will be subject to the sustained and sometimes hysterical criticism of his party. His moral and political beliefs shift constantly, and may yet shift again. And though they do not cohere, I credit his deep sincerity, a sincerity which is in its way uniquely religious.
Mere mortals think their actions define them. And if he were judged by his actions outside of politics, Romney would rank as one of America’s greatest men.(No…not really.) But he always conceived of politics as a low business and so tried to make deals with himself and his audience about what he “could” say, rather than what he should. From more pro-choice than Ted Kennedy, to severely conservative, from Trump’s greatest scourge to his potential senior diplomat, and back again, from consuming ambition for high office to indifference to it, Romney’s actions never really meant anything or made a difference. The futility of his impeachment vote was the point, the rebuke of the other 97 percent of Republicans. But taken together, all of Romney’s political actions bear witness to the one sincere, consistent, and abiding truth: He has always esteemed himself as the real elect.“
Which, when you think about it, explains him flying his wife’s horse…
…to the London Olympics, or continued to vacation at Lake Winnipesaukee over the 2012 4th of July weekend…
…while the battleground states of Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia and West Virginia…
…dug themselves out from under the debris of one of the worst thunderstorm systems in history.
To borrow a phrase from only legitimate Ghostbusters…
Speaking of the consistent inconsistency of Mormons, the WSJ details how…
“…Mr. Clarke said he believed church leaders were concerned that public knowledge of the fund’s wealth might discourage tithing. “Paying tithing is more of a sense of commitment than it is the church needing the money,” Mr. Clarke said. “So they never wanted to be in a position where people felt like, you know, they shouldn’t make a contribution.”
Some members are now asking why details about the fund have been tightly held for so long, what the money is for, and whether tithingso much to the church should still be the standard practice…”
Clarke’s reference to “Paying tithing” is akin to Trump quoting from “Two” Corinthians: the terminology is simply dead-ass wrong. The word “tithe” literally means 1/10th in Hebrew; and one “tithes”; one does not “pay a tithe”.
As recorded in Leviticus 27:30, Proverbs 3:9 and Malachi 3:10-12, and Christ himself stated in Matthew 23:23, tithing isn’t neither intended to demonstrate a “sense of commitment”, nor is it subject to the whims of and personal beliefs of church members.
Rather it is an explicit expression of a CHRISTIAN’s commitment to honor God with the “firstfruits” of their income, prior to doing anything else with the money, as well as signifying faith in God’s promises.
As The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is a cult rather than a Christian denomination, Clarke’s ignorance of actual Scripture comes as no surprise.
