Today, we’re borrowing from legendary radio broadcaster Gabriel Heatter and his famous sign on phrase “There’s good news tonight.”
There is a lot of good news, of various stripes, on this Sunday Sept. 25 evening.
In Italy, despite threats from European Union tyrants, exit polls indicate the Italian voters have ushered in a right-wing group of politicians who have vowed to move things in a conservative direction and away from the hard-left, socialistic policies that have turned Italy specifically and Europe at large into an economic and social mess.
I’m presuming there will be no overnight vote-counting shenanigans as occurred here in our banana republic in the last presidential election and the indicated results will hold in Italy.
Back home, Botox Queen Nancy Pelosi made a surprise visit Saturday night at the Global Citizen Music Festival, in theory a safe venue of leftist climate alarmists and generally leftist-leaning residents of New York City.
But, surprise, Pelosi was booed long and loud as she tried to take credit for climate legislation. No doubt she flew to New York on a private jet and rode a limo to the event. Carbon footprint, be damned, I’m Queen Nancy!
So, maybe the crowd was booing her hypocrisy, or maybe just Queen Nancy in general. Regardless, it warmed the cockles of my heart to see video of the ongoings.
The CEO of Pfizer, one of the big-pharma purveyors of those COVID vaccines that don’t live up to the hype, has come down with COVID for the second time in two months. He’s had FOUR doses of his company’s vaccine and also was treated with a Pfizer antiviral drug when he got COVID the first time.
Now that clueless Joe Biden has pronounced the end to the pandemic – to the horror of his handlers who quickly walked back that claim by their figurehead mouthpiece – isn’t it about time we stop frothing at the mouth over the need to take vaccines that don’t live up to promises and are increasingly being outed for negative side effects?
Hypocrisy in general is being outed worldwide.
Finland, which would not close its borders to refugees that were politically correct to accept, won’t be taking in any Russians fleeing that nation’s conscription of young men for military purposes.
Back home, hypocrites from Martha’s Vineyard to New York City, to Washington, D.C., think it’s just fine that Clueless Joe’s open borders are flooding immigrants into Texas, Florida and other states, not to mention making it easy for illegal drugs to flow unchecked throughout our nation.
But send a few immigrants to their towns or cities and the NIMBY (not in my back yard) screaming is deafening.
It is amusing to hear their strained attempts at justifying their conduct and passing the blame elsewhere.
Hope and Change Obama probably could have handled all 50-something migrants just by opening up the grounds to his $12 million estate in Martha’s Vineyard.
Funny, one-time Dial-An-Opinion Obama was mute on this point. It hit a little too close to home – literally and figuratively.
So it is with hypocrites.
