It is really more of a “Monty Python” / “Hogan’s Heros” kind of Nazi name … or one that Mel Brooks would have assigned to one of the prancing Nazis in “The Producers”
… probably has the same talent agent as that “straight off the set of Rocky & Bullwinkle” moose & squirrel chasing ass clown … “Sebastian Gorka”
Good point. There CAN’T be an Italian military satellite because nobody’s ever figured out how to make a satellite leak oil.
Relax. KellyAnn was just commemorating the Revolutionary War airline stewardess outfit.
Elevation 6,969 feet. A little cannabis should help with the hypoxia.
The very best authors of intrigue and the absurd could not conceive of such twisted material. Maddow did an extensive piece on this fiasco last evening…More effective education with emphasis on critical thinking has got to be a priority …this stuff is beyond Barnum…
He was Sherlock Holmes. Too bad the studios didn’t have the budgets for real movies with scripts and sets to build around him.
And I thought I was a purist about the cannon until I saw the Cumberbatch Sherlock which was so well written, edited and acted.
If you really read his stories with a fresh eye, he opens many of them just like a film script would. Draws you right into the world and settings.
I bet her finances could use some looking into.
Someone do a safety check on George Will.
CPAC
Her bizarness it really on an elite level…
Suspect that she holds the
Sante Kimes Chair of Grift and Fraud.
I’ve written some really good satire. People like Ballarin are satirical characters who have come to real life.
Well, at least she wasn’t holding a wedding.
I’m fascinated by this. I’m pretty much persuaded that a lot of them simply don’t have any clinical form of mental illness that makes them delusional. But something—identity fusion comes to mind—makes it possible for them to easily believe stuff we normies think of that way. The idea that Trump in particular and the hard right in general must be right about everything and can never be at fault requires them to grasp at any straw, no matter how absurd. It’s preferable to facing what they’ve done to themselves and the society. We view them with a contempt we might not feel for a mother who can’t believe her child committed a heinous crime that he or she obviously did commit, but the mechanism is the same. The reality is too painful, so you leave it behind. Don’t take that as sympathy, by the way. They can all go fuck themselves.
who says she didn’t ?
just like …
is there anyway to be sure that it was also not used as the location for “BOOGIE NIGHTS II”?
My son and DIL wrote a great twist on “The Wedding Crashers” by crashing their wedding in four unauthorized public venues in one day including an art museum and a bowling alley.
“High Bob!”
Drink!
Perhaps but I tend to think of the mechanism as more dissociative, a detachment from the consequences of reality but more for emotional release than self-defense: like the fans at a wrestling match, yelling at the heel while belief is suspended and reflection minimized so the actual consequences in policy and lives are effectively ignored rather than actively denied.
They are (mostly) clinically sane I suppose but what gets me as much as their indifference to the suffering of people-not-like-them is the utter vulgarity of their beliefs. My reaction to them as much as anything is sheer astonishment that an adult could not only find but give public credence to the idiocies of a Trump or Q and not be institutionalized.
