Colorblind College Admissions

 The Supreme Court ruled today that race is not a valid basis for deciding in whole or in part college admissions.  The amendments passed to the Constitution after the Civil War make this clear.  Fifty to sixty years ago, the courts allowed consideration of race to make up for years of racial discrimination against blacks.  Remember, Joe Biden was actually elected to the Senate from Delaware on a platform that forcing blacks and whites into the same schools would create "jungles" that would hurt the sturdents.

It has been more than 50 years when race was allowed to be considered.  It has been long enough.   We've had a black President, a black vice president, many Congressmen, many black Senators, black business leaders and the like.  The point is that not all black students deserve a benefit.  Not all Hispanics or Asians or Native Americans deserve to be placed ahead of other students.  Indeed, white males are underrepresented in Colleges.  Does that mean they should get preferential treatment.  Who is to make that decision.  Is it just statistics?

Clearly, the rule in the Constitution is that no one - NO ONE - should get preferential treatment based upon race, religion or national origin or gender.  

Remember that all the hysterics who are screaming about this ruling are basically worried that their favored group will lose preferences.

Hey --It was only abit over a million dollars in taxes

 Hunter Biden has now admitted that he filed tax returns that knowingly and intentionally understated the amount of taxes he owed by more than one million dollars.  ONE MILLION DOLLARS!!!!!!!

T hink for a moment what would happen to you if the IRS found out that you had cheated by filing false tax returns that cheated the government out of more than a million dollars.  Think you would get a sweetheart deal that let you avoid prison time?  The Federal Sentencing Commission sets the minimum penalties for such a crime.  The specified minimum - even with all sorts of mitigating factors - is still more than 10 years in prison.

Hunter Biden is not going to get ANY time in prison.  NONE.  I guess it really helps to have a President as your daddy.  

Look, Joe Biden was involved with some of the places where Hunter got huge amounts of cash, and Joe didn't report any of that income either.  He's the president so he can't be indicted while he's in office.  

I'm disgusted by the obvious double standard applied

So Who Will Fox Pick to Replace Tucker Carlson

 Last week Fox News dumped Tucker Carlson.  Yawn.  Does it really matter?  Yawn.  Who will Fox pick to fill the hole in the evening programming?  Yawn  Does anyone really care?  

I don't.  

In the last three years, I probably watched Tucker's show twice.  That still puts Tucker ahead of MSNBC and CNN.

Dems Blatantly Suppressing Voting Rights But No Media Mentions It

 Over the last few election cycle a constant refrain from the main stream media has been that Republicans havee been trying to take measures that would suppress votes by minorities.  I'm sire you've heard my favorite (and by that I mean the most ridiculous) complaint by the Dems and their supporters in the media, namely that new laws in Georgia prohibit anyone passing out water to voters standing in line at the polls.  For some unknown reason, it is just assumed that minorities are dissuaded from voting due to thirst while Whites in Georgia are more like camels, able to go for long stretches without water.  How ridiculous,  Still, it's just another phony claim by the Dems and their media allies.

But have you heard that the Democrats have passed new rules that will bar any delegates at the 2024 convention from New Hampshire.  That's right, the Dems are barring votes to the entire state of NH.  That's voter suppression on a grand scale,  The Dems have done this to New Hampshire voters because the DNC wants the first primary to be in South Carolina instead of NH because Joe Biden doesn't do well in NH.

Imagine for a moment what the media reaction would be to a move by Republicans to bar convention delegates from DC having a say at the 2024 convention.  It would be denounced endlessly as racist voter suppression.

Rights For Me But Not for Thee

 In general boycotts don't work.  It's really impossible to get a sizeable group to boycott a product for a long time.  Even so, boycotts remain a big tactic  of "social justice" groups.  Just a few weeks ago, the NY Times wrote a lengthy article applauding how certain advertisers would not place their ads on the Tucker Carlson show.  That's why it's so funny to watch the left wing media outlets condemn as unAmerican the current boycotts against Budweiser for its use of a prominent trans personality to promote Bud Lite.  Similarly, the same media is apoplectic about a proposed boycott of Disney for its support of extremist gay activists.  

Look, the reality is that Disney and Budweiser are free to use anyone to promote their products, just as other advertisers could chose not to use Tucker Carlson to promote theirs.  Consumers are also free to use whatever criteria they want to decide what products to buy.  It's ridicuous and hypocritical, however, for media like the Times or NBC to applaud one side and to condemn the other as unAmerican.

Lies vs Lies

 Beginner Ny in 2016 and continuing for at least 3 years, CNN and MSNBC reported every day about the ties between the Trump campaign and Russia to fix the 2016 election. By May of 2017, the special prosecutor knew that there was no such conspiracy. In fact, the dossier that was the primary “evidence “ of the conspiracy was a total fraud paid for by Hillary Clinton’s campaign. By August of 2017, MSNBC and CNN knew the claims of Trump Russia collusion were totally untrue. They kept reporting the lies anyway


I mention this because of the reaction today by these two networks to the Fox settlement with Dominion. Oh the horror!  Fox reported lies!  


Don’t get me wrong. I’m not in favor of tv networks reporting lies. I just can’t take the hypocrisy of the left wing networks feigned my upset at Fox when what they did was 100 times worse.

MSNBC: Mostly Silly Needless BS Coverage

 I happened tonight to tune in for a bit to MSNBC. 

What a waste of time. As has been the case thff we last 4 times I tuned in, they were discussing ghecoverage of the 2020 election results on Fox News. Really?  Is there really an audience that wants to hear nonstop coverage of an event from over two years ago?  Even stranger is that much of the MSNBC coverage of supposed lies on FNC consists of nothing more than innuendo and half truths from the gurus on MSNBC. 


No wonder the ratings on MSNBC just continue to be in the toilet. Even their core audience must be bored with this
