The governor I hate the most this week is Oregon's Kate Brown, who's fine with left-wing violence, but thinks a mere right-wing protest is practically some kind of Putsch.
Kate Brown. Gavin Newsom. Andrew Cuomo. This is why we have an Electoral College, so that the neurotics and imbeciles and ideologues who put people like these in charge do not get to impose their mad dystopian societies on the rest of us.
All of a piece with new TV mini-series in which martyr Comey has to face a brutal Trump:

Poor Comey was just trying to do his job, when this evil dictator took over. (The rest of us know Trump as the world's most successful stand up comedian, but we don't see his daaaark side!)
It was front page on Tim Blair's Telegraph or I'd not have noticed.
I keep holding out hope that these dictatorial governors and mayors will be kicked out of office, but it may be futile.
ReplyDeletebruce,
ReplyDeleteEven some Democrats think that Comey hagiography is absurd, since many of them still blame the World's Tallest Soyboy for Hillary's defeat.
The good news is, since she declared an emergency the state troopers have been federally deputized . Any attacks against them now are federal crimes. The corrupt DA can't catch and release.
ReplyDeleteOff topic, but thought Paco might be interested.
ReplyDeleteShorpy: This color transparency from the Ford Motor Co. archives is our first in a series of automotive publicity photos.
Oh, brother! How James Comey, Hero, Defied a Dictator and Single-Handedly Saved America - by James Comey.
ReplyDeleteHaven't seen the flick, and not likely to join the ranks of the thirty or forty people who have. Comey's actions are bad enough, but his character and temperament make my skin crawl. What a histrionic twit he is.
Mike: Great pics. I wouldn't want a contemporary Mustang in black and coral, but something from the fifties in that combination would be sweet.
Btw, check out this 1951 Indian lawn mower. Who knew?
ReplyDeleteI believe that lawn mower is a one-off, custom job, but still...nice.
ReplyDeleteMeanwhile, here in The Great South Land, ASIO (Australian Security Intelligence Organisation) is talking about a rise in far-right extremism.
ReplyDeleteThey're using the MSM definition of 'far-right', which begins here at one inch the wrong side of Malcolm Turnbull.
Yeah, Governor Brownshirt is beloved by the residents of Oregon --- NOT. Except for the lefties who swoon at her feet. The Americans in that state tried to recall her, but failed -- by a very slim margin, alas.
ReplyDeleteAnd let's not forget Governor Jay "Scooter" Inslee of Washington State. We hope to boot his arse out of office, but that's an uphill battle as well, between the liberal sheep in the urban areas, and the people who don't vote because "their vote doesn't matter".
