This is the day Punxsy Phil didn’t see his shadow, government estimators came out with another surprisingly large increase in the job report (no doubt subject to downward revision in coming months as is almost always the case), Clueless Joe met protesters at each stop of his journey, and the military heat was turned up in the Middle East.
It is a backdrop for contemplation, best expressed in the form of questions.
When do white men get to play the race/victim card, joining various racial minorities, women, gender-confused types and other protected groups in calling for unfair advantages from society?
When do whistleblowers implicating Democrats for wrongdoing get their fair hearing and protection from retaliatory witch hunts against them?
Why does a Democratic staffer who videoed and posted online a gay sexual encounter in a Senate meeting room, escape punishment while ordinary citizens – presumably Republicans – are jailed and otherwise penalized for being in The Capitol on Jan. 6?
Why do investment markets react so strongly in kneejerk fashion to government statistics that are mere estimates and frequently prove to be incorrect?
Why are illegal immigrants both here and abroad able to commit crimes with impunity, escaping punishment even as their liberal apologists labor to explain away those misdeeds?
Where is the outrage over alleged serial indiscretions by Atlanta Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, who has been accused of hiring a married lover to prosecute/persecute Donald Trump and now is said to have fired a whistleblower for alleging a misuse by Willis’ office of Federal grant money?
Why is Nimarata (Nikki) Randhawa (Haley) still hanging around in the chase for the Republican presidential nomination?
Is she a Quisling?
Is she a stalking horse?
When do traditional Americans, from either major political party, say enough to the ongoing bastardization of our laws, traditions and customs of this once-great nation?
Does anyone think it is mere coincidence that most of the major U.S. cities facing mounting crime, declining quality of life and massive impending commercial real estate crises are led by Democratic administrations?
