America Today: “Easily Duped and Way Off Course” but Getting There Anyway
Gavin McInnes, the Master, the Scottish-born, ex-Canadian, punk rock maestro, devoutly Catholic family man, the doctor of post-hipster analysis of the American condition, has written an excellent opinion piece in Taki’s Mag about the Trump phenomenon and some of the signs of why it’s a good thing in the crazy, screwed up, cultural hash that America has become.
McInnes’ insight is that you have to look at the “crybaby generation’s” take on things, because they determine the outcome of elections, like it or not. People like the idiots who write for Rolling Stone magazine, for example. “The crybaby generation is driving this boat and they don’t know how to drive. This is what’s so great about Trump. In an era where dupes are easily led, you need a great leader.”
Gavin McInnes
And by “great leader,” McInnes is talking about a leader who doesn’t put up with the whining classes’ bullsh*t. That’s Trump all over. The magic of this is that after years of conservative leaders being too timid to stand up to the spoiled babies on the left, and getting nowhere, Trump is exactly the “strong daddy figure” that the millenials and assorted lefties really want, even if they won’t admit it. Read the article, and you’ll see examples of how the hip, young pundits are writing about Trump with the thinly-disguised admiration of trust-fund brats who are finally ready to go to work for Daddy’s business. McInnes explains this in the politically-incoherent way that only he can:
The Democrats, the mainstream media, neocons, liberals, and college kids are all part of the same hive. They want to fight but they don’t want to win. They’re like that crazy Latina girlfriend in a screaming panic who won’t shut up until you grab her by the wrists and say, “Shut the f*&k up. I got this.” We need to throw her onto the couch, grab a beer, and get back to work. That’s ultimately what she wants too. She just doesn’t realize it yet.
And the best part? “I still believe Trump is a snowplow who is paving the way for Ted Cruz. At the last second, he endorses Cruz and we get all the bravado of the former with the brains of the latter.” I concur. Fingers crossed. Cross-Posted and Bowdlerized from Blog of Monte Cristo.

I Forget; Who Was Supposed to Be POTUS During These ATROCITIES on US Military Bases in Afghanistan?
Well, let’s see, this New York Times article mentions the height of child rape on US bases in Afghanistan being between 2010 and 2012. That makes it that guy whose tenure also includes the most suicides by deployed US military personnel in HISTORY. I wonder why? And it seems to me one of the women running for President right now was US Secretary of State at the time these atrocities were being labeled “cultural things” that we had to accept in our allies.
This is what Barack has done to us in his shadow crusade to build an Islam-friendly America. I just went outside and yanked the Stars and Stripes down off my front porch flagpole and put the yellow Gadsden (Revolutionary War) flag back up. If anybody asks me why, Imma tell them to go talk to this guy.
But I encourage everyone to read this entire article in the NY Times – not something I do very often.
Meantime, I fully endorse this message to Mr. Obama from Sean Whalen, which I just shamelessly stole from the Feral Irishman.

Double-Oh-Socialism
For the backstory on Daniel Craig’s embarrassing twist on a contribution to Bernie Sanders, go to Breitbart. His wife is Rachel Weisz (pronounced ‘vice’), and she has a more established acting career, in addition to being brighter in the real world, than her husband. Even though Jane Dough has never heard of her. 😉

Is Chrissie Hynde Right About Women Sometimes Being Responsible for Rape?
Short answer: No. But the feminist response to her common sense words were just as ridiculous as her claim that she “took full responsibility” for being gang raped decades ago.
Rock and roller mom, Chrissie Hynde, has been interviewed several times recently about her controversial assertion that our culture has become overly pornographic and that women need to pull the plug on that by changing their behavior and “stop acting like prostitutes.”
That seemingly common sense position has provoked a stinging backlash from feminists on both sides of the Atlantic. As Julia Hartley-Brewer from the Telegraph put it, “Chrissie Hynde has committed the ultimate sin for a former feminist icon: She has offended the sisterhood.” That is certainly true, and for that, I applaud Hynde. The feminist notion that the behavior of women can never be criticized, either for local incidents or for more widespread degradation of the culture, is bizarre, and it needs to be confronted.
Furthermore, many of the things she’s stated recently in her interviews are very reasonable. When she criticized pop performers like Miley Cyrus and Rihanna, for example, for behaving like “sex workers” and doing “a great deal of damage,” that can hardly be refuted.

Top Ten Most Unlikely Contents of Hillary’s Mystery Box
Gruntington Post – When the Hillary Clinton campaign announced their latest gimmick to attract donations from misguided individuals willing to add their pocket cash to that of Saudi sheiks, shady arms dealers, Planned Parenthood, union thugs, various terrorist groups and about half the third-world dictators on the planet to help Hillary get what she wants, it started a frenzy of speculation about what useless token was being sent out in the ‘ThxBox.’ Here at the Gruntington Post, we have no idea, and really, really don’t want to know.
However, we have a super-computer capable of running the statistics and determining the objects that you can bet your grandmother will almost CERTAINLY NOT be in any of the boxes. Here’s the top ten.
Top Ten List of Objects LEAST Likely to be in a ThxBox:
1. Comprehensive list of Hillary’s accomplishments as SecState.
2. The half-gallon of Vince Foster’s missing blood that should have been at his death scene if he’d really shot himself in the head at Fort Marcy.
3. Complete collection of futures market investing books that Hillary used to become an expert before she made her cool $100,000 on the only transaction she ever made.
4. Complete collection of endearing and romantic handwritten letters sent between Bill and Hillary during the White House years in the 1990s.
5. Thoroughly convincing autographed photo of Hillary convalescing under doctors’ care for the concussion that prevented her from testifying before Congress about Benghazi.
6. Replica of the ethics medal Hillary was awarded for her truthful and courageous work during the Watergate Hearings in the 1970s.
7. Framed and autographed photo of Clinton advisor Sid Blumenthal and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu with Sid’s inscription: “Sorry about all those anti-Jewbag epithets over the years, Bibi. We love yah, and aren’t actively working toward the annihilation of Israel. We swear!”
8. Actual human teeth collected from the Bosnian snipers captured after firing on Hillary’s diplomatic entourage on the tarmac at Sarajevo.
9. Authentic pair of Huma Abedin’s panties recovered from somewhere in the Scooby Van that may or may not have been laundered since the Iowa State Fair. You have to contribute to find out!
10. A copy of Dr. Alma Bond’s new book about Hillary being poised to be America’s first Narcissist Lesbian President.

Et tu, Dick Lugar?
Today marks the day that President Obama achieved critical mass (heh) in getting his Iran Treaty bomb-proofed against its massive resistance in Congress. Outgoing Democrat Senator Barbara Mikulski announced her support, giving Obama the 34 Senate votes he needs to sustain any veto of the deal.
While she was announcing her support this morning, SecState John Kerry was in Philadelphia giving a technically unnecessary speech to reassure the public that the deal was actually a good thing. Sitting in attendance, and prominently mentioned by Kerry, was former US Senator Dick Lugar, who is one of the very few Republicans supporting the administration in this potentially catastrophic sham agreement.
I’ve met Lugar, a fellow Hoosier and Eagle Scout, back when he was mayor of Indianapolis, and I supported him for years, completely unaware that he would eventually travel to Russia in 2005 with a young Barack Obama, apparently lose his mind, and decide to throw his lot in with that treasonous sack of shit. Little did anybody know how complete that fresh allegiance would be for the Senator, who is now an object of nearly universal contempt among still-sane conservatives, and probably a future resident of the Ninth Circle of Hell, which is reserved for the treacherous. That’s appropriate, perhaps, given his tenure as mayor of the Circle City in Indiana. I really don’t have anything else to say about him, except “Bon voyage, Lugar.” What a dick.

Maybe They Need Another Vacation?
The Obamas are finally back from Martha’s Vineyard, and everyone looks rested and happy… Well, at least the Marine One honor guard is going to a happier place. With the economy and the stock market tanking today and the world falling apart, I can’t say I don’t envy him a little.
Original, unaltered photo stolen from Comrade Whoopie over at BlurBrain. No faces were altered in this classic image of family vacation bliss. Apologies to Pete, who posted the unaltered pic earlier in his daily post.

Ben Carson Performs First Involuntary Brain Transplant
Still anonymous Bad Lip Reading dude seems to have received a mouse brain. At his own home. While tied up and sedated. Local sheriff says no charges filed. Action was ‘justified.’
Gruntington Post – Shortly after releasing the Bad Lip Reading video for the recent GOP debate, the anonymous man behind the popular videos, who has nonetheless been interviewed by a few publications, was found by neighbors resting comfortably at home in Nashville after apparently being the world’s first successful – and involuntary – brain transplant recipient.
Davidson County Sheriff Ron Blurthy told the Gruntington Post that neighbors observed Dr. Ben Carson, who is also a GOP candidate for President of the United States, knock on Mr. BLR’s door early this morning. When he answered, Dr. Carson shoved an ether-soaked rag in Mr. BLR’s face and proceeded to prep him for surgery right there on the front porch. “Aside from periodic re-application of the ether rag, he performed the whole operation without anesthesia,” said long-time neighbor Amanda Richardson. “And I can’t say I blame him. Have you seen the video? It makes all the debaters look pretty silly, but what he did with Dr. Carson was just mean. He was lucky to get a mouse brain, frankly. I think he probably deserved something more of the invertebrate variety. But Dr. Carson is just like that. He always gives more than people expect.”
