Sipsey Street Irregulars: Forget the birth certificate, the burning question of the media day for Obama now is: "Do you, or do you not, know who Snooki is?"

Forget the birth certificate, the burning question of the media day for Obama now is: "Do you, or do you not, know who Snooki is?"

I kid you not. Heck, I still don't know who Snooki is after reading a couple of stories about how she voted for John McCain and is upset about the tax on white people's tanning sessions. I'm not sure I want to know.

I looked up at the television and there was Jersey Shore, in all its puerile glory. I felt my brain atrophying as I listened to these idiots brag about their sexual conquests. I started to hyperventilate, so I started reciting my mantra over and over again:

The M16A2 service rifle is a 5.56mm shoulder fired, magazine fed, gas operated, air cooled weapon.

The M16A2 service rifle...

Sean said...: If such a woman, totally devoid of intellect, morals, and propriety did not exist, she would have to be invented. Either that, or call in the U.S. Secretary of State.; July 30, 2010 at 11:22 AM

As for Snooki, the Jersey shore or the mindless bullshit....the regime wants us to watch, so they can coninue on unfettered..; July 30, 2010 at 11:33 AM
Defender said...: And THEN... and THEN... later that night, Joy Behar of "The View" on her own show on HLN Network, had Ben Stein as a guest. He said Obama really shined, was a wonderful speaker, very personable. He made a very few allusions to Obama taking credit for things that were done before he was elected, but I was amazed how this brilliant conservative/libertarian thinker gave them a pass for their fluffery and mediocrity. Stein DID note that Obama was so relaxed because "he was among friends," which may have been a subtle dig at those vacuous liberals.
It reminded me of the burning question a COLLEGE STUDENT asked Clinton: "The world wants to know. Boxers or briefs?"
Even people who should know better, like Hannity, were discussing "Sex on TV: where do we draw the line?" last night.
As for Jersey Shore and all those movies glorifying gangsters, grifters and gutter trash... that's really the best that many people seem to aspire to, and the entertainment industry wouldn't provide such rotten fare if people did not eat it up. It's telling that one way to keep dangerous, low-functioning people away from your place of business is to play Mozart.; July 30, 2010 at 11:37 AM
Rhodes said...: I wonder if during the midst of the revolution a segment of the population was more concerned with who Ben Franklin was bedding than how Washington's army fared.

Somehow I doubt it...

Folks its things like this, insignificant though it may seem, that speaks volumes on how far our civilization has sank.; July 30, 2010 at 11:49 AM

parabarbarian said...: Honest to gosh, when I saw the headline I thought to myself does he mean "Sookie" and what the hell does Anna Paquin have to do with Obama? Then I saw the picture and realized I had no idea who MV was talking about.

So I looked her up an found out she is a character on a TV show named "Jersey Shore". I still have no idea who she is.

Maybe I need to get out more...; July 30, 2010 at 4:01 PM

Dedicated_Dad said...: It looks to me like a "snooki" is essentially the result of miscegenation between a plus-sized guidette and an oompa-loompa.

Why Dear Reader -- or *I* for that matter -- should care is beyond me...

"Progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress."

I believe that liberty is the only genuinely valuable thing that men have invented, at least in the field of government, in a thousand years. I believe that it is better to be free than to be not free, even when the former is dangerous and the latter safe. I believe that the finest qualities of man can flourish only in free air – that progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress, and of no permanent value. I believe that any man who takes the liberty of another into his keeping is bound to become a tyrant, and that any man who yields up his liberty, in however slight the measure, is bound to become a slave. -- H.L. Mencken

"The Fate of Unborn Millions. . ."

"The time is now near at hand which must probably determine, whether Americans are to be, Freemen, or Slaves; whether they are to have any property they can call their own; whether their Houses, and Farms, are to be pillaged and destroyed, and they consigned to a State of Wretchedness from which no human efforts will probably deliver them. The fate of unborn Millions will now depend, under God, on the Courage and Conduct of this army-Our cruel and unrelenting Enemy leaves us no choice but a brave resistance, or the most abject submission; that is all we can expect-We have therefore to resolve to conquer or die." -- George Washington to his troops before the Battle of Long Island.

"We will not go gently . . ."

This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can't be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won't be done. The Founders' Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.

But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.

And when we are gone, the scattered, free survivors hiding in the ruins of our once-great republic will sing of our deeds in forbidden songs, tending the flickering flame of individual liberty until it bursts forth again, as it must, generations later. We will live forever, like the Spartans at Thermopylae, in sacred memory.

-- Mike Vanderboegh, The Lessons of Mumbai:Death Cults, the "Socialism of Imbeciles" and Refusing to Submit, 1 December 2008

"A common language of resistance . . ."

"Colonial rebellions throughout the modern world have been acts of shared political imagination. Unless unhappy people develop the capacity to trust other unhappy people, protest remains a local affair easily silenced by traditional authority. Usually, however, a moment arrives when large numbers of men and women realize for the first time that they enjoy the support of strangers, ordinary people much like themselves who happen to live in distant places and whom under normal circumstances they would never meet. It is an intoxicating discovery. A common language of resistance suddenly opens to those who are most vulnerable to painful retribution the possibility of creating a new community. As the conviction of solidarity grows, parochial issues and aspirations merge imperceptibly with a compelling national agenda which only a short time before may have been the dream of only a few. For many Americans colonists this moment occurred late in the spring of 1774." -- T.H. Breen, The Marketplace of Revolution: How Consumer Politics Shaped American Independence, Oxford University Press, 2004, p.1.
