08/02/23: May I nominate Maureen Dowd?

"NYT's Maureen Dowd was unhappy..."

Haven't heard from Howdy Doody Dowdy in quite some screech.

Funny how she now pops up once a year, in August... come to think of it, like a virus... pretty soon, they'll name a "vaccine" after her...

At any rate, here we go again with two of my all-time favorite columns...

--- Fred Reed (no relation) on Maureen Dowd (11/22/05)

I read with ashen resignation that Maureen Dowd, the professional spinster of the New York Times, will soon birth a book, no doubt parthenogenetically, called Are Men Necessary?

The problem apparently is that men have not found Maureen necessary. Hell hath…. Clearly there is something wrong with men.

I weary of the self-absorbed clucking of aging poultry.

Why is Maureen hermetically single? For starters, she is not just now your classic hot ticket. She’s not just over the hill, but into the mountains, to Grandmother’s house we go. She probably gets more daily maintenance than a 747, but she still looks as though a vocational school held an injection-molding contest and everyone lost.

That leaves her with only her personality as bait. The prognosis is grim.

*****

--- Is Maureen Dowd Obsolete?

The Evidence Speaks, Loudly

December 22, 2013

"Without men, civilization would last until the oil needed changing"--Federicius Aurelius Superomnem, 345 B.C.

Oh god, oh god. Death, taxes, migraine, sinus drainage, beriberi, and Maureen Dowd, the resentment columnist at the New York Times.

On the web I find her at some feminist bitch-in, called Are Men Obsolete. She has this to say to men:

[Maureen apparently has the creepy cravings of Joe Biden. Do not admit children of a certain age into her office!]

“So now that women don’t need men to reproduce and refinance, the question is, will we keep you around? And the answer is, ‘You know we need you in the way we need ice cream….you'll be more ornamental.”

I was delighted to think that I might be ornamental, no one having suggested the concept until now. I could have used it in high school.

Maureen herself is beyond being ornamental, having that injection-molded look that follows the seventh face-lift, probably accomplished by the surgical use of a construction crane.

But I will say this to her:

Listen, Corn Flower. Let’s think over this business of obsolete men.

Reflect. You live in New York, in which every building was designed and built by men. You perhaps use the subway, designed, built, and maintained by men.

You travel at in a car, invented, designed, and built by men—a vehicle that you don’t understand (what is a cam lobe?) and couldn’t maintain (have you ever changed a tire? Could you even find the tires?), and you do this on roads designed, built, and maintained by men.

You fly in aircraft designed, built, and maintained by men, which you do not understand (what, Moon Pie, is a high-bypass turbofan?)

In short, as you run from convention to convention, peeing on hydrants, you depend utterly on men to keep you fed (via tractors designed by men, guided by GPS invented, designed, and launched by men, on farms run by men), and comfy (air conditioning invented…but need I repeat myself?)

I do not want to be unjust. It is not in my nature. While men may be obsolete (unless you want to eat) I cannot say, Apple Cheeks, that feminists are obsolete. They are not. Obsoleteness implies having passed through a period of usefulness.

(continued next box)

(Continued from above)

I do get tired of your hissing and fizzing about the noble sex to which I belong. Mercy, I cry. It is not my fault that Michael Douglas didn’t marry you. He didn’t marry me either, but I don’t hate men because of it. (In fact I am grateful to him, and doubtless he to me).

Don’t misunderstand me. I have nothing against ill-bred viragos—feminism has its place, though I’m not sure where.

But let’ me be clear, Buttercup. I don’t want to seem rude—nothing could be more alien to my character—but I do think that you and your littermates might essay a civility exceeding that of menopausing catamounts.

[Continued below]

In fact, Sweet Potato, if it were not for my innate courtesy, I might say that [men] being at once useless and insupportable is stretching things.

A jot—an iota, a tittle, a scintilla—of gratitude might be in order. Should you look around you, you will note that everything that keeps you and the sisterhood from squatting in caves and picking lice from each other’s hair was provided for you by—the horror—men.

Is it not so, Rose Bud? Can you name one thing, with a moving part, that was invented by a feminist?

It seems to me that you gals are like African bushmen, but without their dignity.

A bushman looks at a television (Invented by Men: IBM) in astonishment, and says, “Wah! Bad juju! Spirits inside!” He knows he doesn’t understand it and does not presume. His degree of understanding, I suspect, is exactly yours.

But I suppose the shrewery are so busy honking and blowing about socially-constructed this and gender-roles that and patriarchal the-other-thing that you don’t understand that there is anything to understand. Is it [this] not so?

When you sit at your computer spewing bile like a legged gall-bladder, are you aware of 2500 years of mathematics, chemistry, solid-state physics, engineering, information theory—all invented by men, the bastards—that go into the blinking screen? Your vituperative ingratitude, Sugar Britches, is undignified.

But perhaps, you might say, I am being ungentlemanly—though I would hardly know how. Perhaps, as we said in Alabama, you ain’t got the sense God give a crabapple.

Maybe, Petunia, you and your frothing friends could profitably come to terms with realty.

Women make perfectly good dentists, surgeons, reporters, lawyers, musicians, editors, and all sorts of things. They can do some things better than men can. (Dentistry: smaller hands, better fine-muscle control)

In Latin countries they do these things civilly (consult your dictionary). And I applaud anyone making headway in this world on his, her, or its merits.

Yet as a matter of observable fact (a category apparently having no place in feminism), we men—patriarchal, capitalistic, macho, immature, savage, testosterone- poisoned, et cetera—seem to come up with everything important that comes up. (I won’t touch that one with a pole.) (Wait, I meant….)

For example: The transistor, William Shockley and his group.

Microsoft, Bill Gates. Intel, Gordon Moore and Robert Noyce.

Apple, Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak.

Dell Computer, Michael Dell.

Public-key encryption, James Ellis, Clifford Cookis, and Malcolm Williamson at GCHQ in England and later Rivest, Shamir, and Adelman of RSA Security.

The World Wide Web, Tim Berners-Lee, a Brit at CERN.

Google, Larry Page and Sergey Brin.

Yahoo, Jerry Yang and David Filo.

Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg.

The list could go on for another yard or so.

It will stay that way, Lotus Blossom, for the same reason that women will never be offensive linemen in the NFL. They can’t. If they could, they would have. If you disagree, I suggest you apply to the Redskins. They need any talent they can get.

Now, if I were left alone, I would say none of this, having no desire to make women feel bad. But you and yours will not leave me alone, Maureen.

I am perfectly happy in a world of female doctors and techs and what have you. When women act like what used to be called “ladies,” I act like what used to be called “a gentleman.”

It used to be that if at the airport I saw a woman struggling with too much suitcase, I would say, “May I give you a hand?,” and put the suitcase where it needed to be. The woman would say, “Thanks,” to which I would respond, “Happy to help.”

And that would be that. It should have nothing to do with machismo, and much to do with a suitcase. Now, I’m not sure I would do it.

OK, I’m bluffing. I would do it. But, Sweet Pea, I hope you have mastered parthenogenesis. It is your only hope.

(End. See you next August, Maureen!)

“Trump has the power of an innocent man falsely accused of nonsensical crimes with serious penalties for corrupt judges to impose. Americans back him as never before.”

Biblically speaking, has anyone had more false witness borne against him than POTUS DJT?

Et tu, “Christian” Mike Pence?

“The nation should have faith in God, not government. In God we trust not the FBI, CDC or FDA.”

“It is money well spent because we need Trump again to bring down the loathsome, corrupt and fascist people in the federal government who use criminal justice as a blunt instrument.”

@ this point fighting World War II was a complete waste of lives, $$, & time. The Fascism we fought against has taken root here & become modus vevendi of our “ruling class”.

08-28-23: Witness the sad spectacle of Mike Pence, the taxidermist touched-up "Penguin," plagiarized from the Batman TV series (1960s).

His political demise needed no assistance from his turncoat role in the "Who Wants To Be Vice-President in 2025?!" debate (hosted by Meredith Vieira), but he had to go and do it anyway.

Next career move: The driver (if he can fit behind the wheel) in the remake of "Cash Cab" on the Game Show Network, having rehearsed the role in "Cash Grab" in the 2023-24 Republican (they'll take anybody) primaries.

Perfectly summed up. The tragedy is that the victim / perpetrator of this degenerative mental disease imagines that he alone is the most rational person in the room.

It is hardly a new phenomenon. I'm reading Patrick Fermor's Letters*, and this derangement perfectly described both the ranting of the British and the Greeks on the issue of the island of Cypress in the 1950s (both sides horrifying Fermor, whose military service in the 1940s involved surviving a brutal two-year stint as an undercover agent in Crete, assisting the Cretan resistance to the German military occupation, a very dangerous occupation).

That is an interesting question. I believe it is held by those who were classic Bushies. For a while that persona of Republicanism was secure, safe, honorable, noble, pro-wealth. They can’t wrestle with the notion that it has corroded away to rust - and the Bushes aren’t for America - never were. It was a facade.

It’s like trying to hang on to the girlfriend that broke up with you and has moved on - but you can’t.

It is no coincidence that when Alan Coren --- the funniest man (writer) in the 20th century, as far as I can tell --- left Punch magazine, it did not have long to live, afterwards.

Start with The Essential Alan Coren [1938-2007], Edited and Introduced By Giles [1969- ] and Victoria Coren [Mitchell, 1972- ], with further Introductions by Melvyn Bragg [1939- ], Victoria Wood [1953-2016], Clive James [1939-2019], A.A. [Adrian Anthony] Gill [1954-2016], and Stephen Fry [1957- ]; Canongate Books (paperback 2008-2009).

The Introduction by Giles and Victoria is far superior to anything else written about Coren, and ditto for about 75% of anything I've eve read.

These are additional anthologies, previously published and notably flawed:

1) The Alan Coren Omnibus, Robson Books (1996 paperback);

2) The Best of Alan Coren, Robson Books Ltd. (1980 hardcover).

The problem is that Robson was a schlock outfit that spent next to nothing on quality book materials (paper, etc.).

And of course, if you read Giles and Victoria first, you'll run into the same stories that first appeared in the Omnibus and The Best Of.

Take your time reading them. As they say about rest estate, they're not making any more of it, Alan having passed away, fortunately before he could witness what an ideological successor to Hitler's totalitarianism the UK has become.

One thing that they're responsible for, to the good (way back when), and highly recommended if you like "grouchy wit":

"STET, Damnit! The Misanthrope's Corner, 1991 to 2002, The Complete, Unabridged Collection," by Florence King [1936-2016], Jacket and book design by Luba Myts*; National Review Books (2003 hardcover).

A sample:

"Bob Dole's habit of referring to himself in the third person is having such a disconcerting effect on the primaries... the camera pans over Russell, Kansas, following the candidate through his formative years ...

"To his mother: 'Bob Dole's hungry.'

"To his father: 'Can Bob Dole have a quarter?'

"To his teachers: 'Bob Dole didn't do it.'

"To nice girls: 'Would you like to go to the pictures with Bob Dole?'

"To bad girls: 'If you did it with all those other guys, how come you won't do it with Bob Dole?' "

*Someday, this will be the answer to a trick question on an exam:

Not related to "The Kingdom of Luba ... (1585–1889) ... a pre-colonial Central African state that arose in the marshy grasslands of the Upemba Depression in what is now southern Democratic Republic of [The] Congo."

There have been at least 4 killed in early morning FBI raids in the last couple months. Only one really hit the news. The others not even the conservative sites are covering much. In one of them, the FBI hit a mom of a disabled vets house. She answered the door and they pulled her out, proceeded to fill it with tear gas and flash bangs. Killed her unarmed 100% disabled son as he was trying to get out. She is asking why like any person would. They told her it was NONE of her business. It was HER house. Her son had PTSD too.

None of the raids have any info on them. They are coming after anyone they think they can get away with.

To the extent that this action on Trump wakes up people to the reality that the democrats are fascist thug totalitarians who will come after you for the crime of thinking for yourself, great. That includes all you leftist progressives who think you are safe. To the extent it locks in Trump as the GOP nominee, well, as I have said before, the cheat is still in place, and Trump has done nothing to stop it. Zilch, nada, zero.

This is all theater, and the Fulton County DA is at more risk than Trump actually is, which I do hope she feels with full force the furor she has unleashed. If you are in a purple state, your total job is to fortify your election process, much as RDS did in purple Florida, which is now deep red. He didn't do it by snapping his fingers, he did it by finding like minded people in his state to make it happen. Be one of those in your state. Then find an AG who will start arresting democrat politicians and bureaucrats. Only revoke bail after it is offered, put them in jail, and refuse them any opportunity for release until their trial - scheduled in 2026 or later.

We need a lottery for whichever state puts Fauci in jail. And there should be a long line of states to press charges next. Ruin him and his family. Total war. Time to destroy people, since those are now the rules. Now fill in the blank for the next dem politician. Rinse and repeat.

The takeaway for me, and what interests me the most, is the reaction of black Americans on X (Twitter) and TikTok. It's mostly black men, but some black women, too. From what I saw, and I watched as many as I could find because I was facsinated by their reaction, is that Trump is now one of them. They relate to him, despite his position and his wealth. Trump has been crowned "Gangsta," and "My Ni--ga." Did you see blacks in Atlanta cheering Trump's motorcade? They know it's bullshit and it's not far from the bullshit that some of them have experienced with the two-tiered justice system. The 'hood says it has his back. If they vote, Trump is going to be re-elected. (Even my kids, who live in French Canadian culture, know what's going on. They know it's bullshit.

Good luck with that and prayers that they see reality sooner than later. My Gma was a die hard Dem all her life. The worse arguments between my Dad and her were politics. Of course she thought the Dems had stayed the same as they were way early when they were helping the 'poor'. I came from dirt farmers and coal miners. Dad went to the Navy and saw Vietnam. He saw what the UniParty was doing and became a conservative. All of us kids are conservatives. The rest of the family, cousins and all, are mostly liberals. They drive me nuts but at least a couple of them actually have discussions. Although one never brings up wind farms since I kept poking holes in how 'green' and good it was.
