Politicians Are Not Patriots; Prostitutes, On The Other Hand…

Crime, Ethics, Etiquette, Government, Labor, Media, The State

If regular visits with prostitutes kept the political class from launching trillion-dollar war- and welfare programs, and financing Fanny, Freddy and the Fed—I would personally contribute to a prostitution fund.

These prostitutes would be patriots.

(I mean no offense to prostitutes in this post. They are self-reliant, tough people who provide a necessary, if unsavory, service. I use “prostitute” here purely as a convention.)

A million here and there for a good time; that’s nothing in the grand scheme of the crimes committed by the Empire’s foot-soldiers and stooges and the cost of these crimes.

I’m referring to the latest storm in a C-Cup over which big media is having a conniption. It is the scandal at Hotel El Caribe in Cartagena, Colombia, last Saturday, currently being finessed as an “alleged misconduct” and as a mere “incident.”

“The Secret Service sent home some of its agents for misconduct that occurred at the hotel before President Barack Obama’s arrival on Friday for the Summit of the Americas.” The scandal involves at least 10 members of the U.S. special forces, no less.

Wouldn’t you like to be “sent home” when you blow an assignment at work and leave the tab for the boss?

Note that not once did Dana Bash of CNN or Bret Baer of Fox News float the concept of firing the oink-sector scum. All share an understanding that no one who serves Uncle Sam and his agencies ever gets dismissed or disgraced. TSA pimps have license to fondle a crippled child or feel up the scarred breast tissue of a cancer survivor at the nation’s airports–and their identities and jobs remain protected.

Yeah, “It’s Hard Out Here for a Pimp.”

Another minor scandal, where dismissing the detritus involved does not seem to be an option, is the General Services Administration’s $800,000 Las Vegas orgy at our expense, with GSA official Jeffrey Neely at the helm. Wouldn’t you know it? Mr. Neely “just invoked his fifth amendment rights and refused to answer any questions in the committee’s inquiry.”

As to the safety of the parasites and whether it was compromised by the prostitutes: I hope so. I want working for government to be one of the most dangerous jobs ever (unfortunately, the honest work of fishermen earns that distinction).

UPDATED: Legal Low-lives

Crime, Ethics, Etiquette, Justice, Law

The putative attorneys for George Zimmerman (Treyvon Martin’s shooter) demonstrated their professional bona fides by holding a press conference in which these publicity whores—these legal low-lives—impugned a client they have yet to meet in person, and announced to the world they would no longer represent a man who, rumor says, has yet to hire them.

Never seek the services of Hal Uhrig and Craig Sonner; they’re unethical and should probably be disbarred.

Kudos to Natalie Jackson, an attorney for the (Treyvon) Martin family, who condemned this kind of conduct:

“These attorneys continue to make irresponsible statement to the media,’ [and] “now they have throw their own client, George Zimmerman, under the bus by alluding to his possible flight from justice.”

Increasingly—and where they see the opportunity—members of the legal system put media appearances and promotion before the case and the client.

UPDATE (April 11): Florida Special Prosecutor Angela Corey will kick off her publicity campaign with a press conference scheduled for 6:00 p.m. ET in Jacksonville, Fla.

Now it is indeed possible that charging George Zimmerman (will it be man slaughter?), as Corey intends to, in the killing of Treyvon Martin is the right thing to do. Still and all, when the Special prosecutor Corey dismissed the Grand-Jury option, yesterday, it occurred to me then that, like her colleagues discussed in the post above—who’re dancing on a defendant’s grave—we were witnessing a publicity stunt. Or a political move, since state attorneys are always looking for a leg up to the Beltway.

Tailored Truths About South Africa

Crime, Pseudo-history, Race, Racism, South-Africa

Craig Seligman’s Bloomberg column—it’s not worth reading—is about South African “Nobelist Nadine Gordimer,” known for her impenetrable prose, having “channeled her rage” over the reality of the “Rambo Nation” in yet more obscurantist prose.

(“Rambo Nation” is the title of the Introduction to “Into the Cannibal’s Pot: Lessons for America from Post-Apartheid South Africa.”)

Permissible rage over the new South African mobocracy has to be a mixed-race affair. After all, you can’t tell the story of the dispossessed white minority (Afrikaner farmers), currently “being culled like springbok in a hunting safari.”

That’s a quote from “Into the Cannibal’s Pot,” a tract that tells it like it is.

This is the level of truth that tired and tiresome mainstream writers can tolerate—and are willing to transmit—about the New South Africa.

UPDATE II: @Twitter, Trayvon Was “NO_LIMIT_NIGA” (The Latest, Feral, 10-Against-One Assault)

Crime, Criminal Injustice, Law, Political Correctness, Propaganda, Race, Racism

“Trayvon’s Tweets and Black Hate Crimes” is my latest column. Here’s an excerpt:

“Hoodie on the Hill’ blared the Drudge-Report headline, as the street theatre playing out over the shooting death of Trayvon Martin crossed over to the House floor. There, concealed by the by-now iconic hood and “gangsta” glasses was one Bobby Rush, a Democratic representative. Rush blessed Trayvon Martin’s departed soul.

The name Trayvon is soon to be a trademark. It may yet spawn a franchise, as the youth’s grieving mother has had the presence of mind to file with the US Patent and Trademark Office.

If you’ve managed to miss the news, Martin was a 17-year-old black youth, shot dead last month by a Hispanic man with a Jewish surname. George Zimmerman—who, for the purposes of the “Racism Industrial Complex” is being considered white—was patrolling a Florida gated community, as part of his neighborhood-watch duties.

Other than that Martin was unarmed and that George Zimmerman has not been arrested, the facts of the case have yet to be established. Since then, the “Racism Industrial Complex (RIC)” (columnist Jack Kerwick’s coinage), has galvanized on behalf of Trayvon.

The Hollywood faction of the RIC sicced its followers on the wrong Zimmerman, after tweeting out an unverified address in the hope of getting the shooter lynched. Somewhere in the Sunshine State a retired Jew is on the lam. …”

UPDATE I: (March 30):

To me, what stands out in this “Media Mash” featuring the “Racism Industrial Complex (RIC)” is the sub-intelligent level of it all. Via NewsBusters:

Reacting angrily to selective editing by NBC that suggested racial animus by George Zimmerman, NewsBusters publisher Brent Bozell complained to Fox News’s Sean Hannity last night that NBC News was engaged in an “all-out falsehood.” The story in question was a March 27 Ron Allen report on NBC’s ‘Today’ in which 911 audio was edited to make it sound like George Zimmerman said “he looks black” immediately after saying “this guy looks like he’s up to no good.”
In the actual 911 audio, Zimmerman only described Martin’s race after the dispatcher asked, “And this guy: is he white, black, or Hispanic?” “To edit that out is so distorting,” Hannity complained. “Sean, it’s not distorting, it’s advancing a falsehood, it’s worse,” Bozell corrected the Fox News anchor. [see video below page break]
What’s more, with Al Sharpton in the NBC family on cable channel MSNBC, the network has been ginning up another Tawana Brawley-like atmosphere where passions are whipped into a frenzy before all the facts are laid out on the table.
“The radical left has already acted as judge, jury and executioner in this. This is another Tawana Brawley moment we’re looking at folks,” Bozell noted, reminding viewers that “Sharpton never apologized for that” incident.
“Every single person who hung this person [Zimmerman] without knowing the facts has got to respond to this,” Bozell complained.

To pick up on the aforementioned sub-intelligent themes in the cognoscenti’s one-sided “conversations” about race, I just heard a black commentator advance the following on MSNBC: A white girl dying at the hands of a black is sad, but devoid of the significance that attaches to the crime when visited on a black. I paraphrase the moron.

The pundit didn’t seem a malevolent man, just deeply stupid, for the non sequitur he was advancing was that black-on-white crime can never spring from endemic and epidemic racial hatred. Thus is it devoid of social and symbolic significance. “Casualty of racial hatred”: This is a construct that exists (in the abstract) for blacks alone.

MSNBC’s Tamron Hall, who is unburdened by brains, tweeted her affections for the guest (from Freedom Watch we know that these shows are more often about entertaining the host’s “good friends.”)

UPDATE II (March 31): The Latest, Feral, 10-Against-One RACIAL Assault:

Seven black teens have been arrested on suspicion that they committed a hate crime when they attacked a 15-year-old Hispanic boy while he was walking home from school in Southern California, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Office.
The March 14 beating in Palmdale was captured on video and posted on YouTube, but has since been removed from the site. The seven boys, ages 13 to 16, were arrested Wednesday for investigation of assault and committing a hate crime, Lt. Don Ford said.
The attack happened near Cactus Middle School, but Ford didn’t know if any of the teens involved were students there.
The video shows as many as 10 boys surrounding the victim and challenging him to a fight. The suspects then began hitting the teen while others watched.
During the beating, the teens made racially derogatory statements that were captured on the video, Ford said.
After the victim fell to the ground, the assailants kicked him multiple times in the head, knocked out several teeth and left shoe impressions on his skin, Ford said.
