We approach the tail end of summer already. September has long been my second favourite month of the year (the first being May). Anyhow, here are your cartoons for this weekend with an emphasis on South Africa and the reaction of the Lefties, willing to do anything to harm the President, is to attack him and his message, not see the true dangers faced by the Boer people who are, after all, just White folk trying to deal with an ongoing genocide which is denied by governments around the world. It is funny, but not amusing, how these Communist actions have taken place over the past century (think Bolshevik, Mao, Pol Pot, Ukraine, etc) and been ignored by the mainstream media of the era ~ or misrepresented, painted to fit the international agenda.
Get out there and sop up the remaining days of summer. We will be cooped up soon enough. I have been cooped up due to the heavy smoke, although I had the pleasure of of a baby to keep me occupied; this slightly cooler weather has cleared the air a tad.
She looks pretty white to me, but she could be (((something else))). Whatever, she is hateful.
Within the next few hours, we'll know if Hawaii has been devastated by
its worst hurricane in decades, or if the fates have smiled once again
on the islands and steered Hurricane Lane back out to sea.
If disaster is avoided, however, it certainly won't be because of
anything the local government and emergency preparedness agencies have
done (specifically on the island of Oahu, the home to Honolulu, Waikiki,
and Pearl Harbor). To put it delicately, the officials' preparations
would feel right at home on a pupu platter...because those plans are
pupu from top to bottom.
A quick bit of back story: for many years, Stilton's parents lived on
Oahu (a sibling still does), and so we were frequent visitors. The
island is unquestionably spectacularly beautiful, but anything
government has touched has gone straight to hell. Pretty much nothing
works right in Hawaii, in part because the island's culture encourages a
lackadaisical attitude toward anything like efficiency, responsibility,
and basic competence. When visiting, our day-to-day mantra was "Nothing
is easy in Hawaii."
It's among our most socialist states, with almost everyone
getting some kind of handout from the government. It has the highest per
capita homeless population of any state. Prices for everything are sky
high. Their medical system has been described as that of a "third world
country" owing to doctors fleeing the state because of unsustainably
small payments from Medicare and Medicaid (a canary in the coal mine
that we on the mainland had better pay attention to). And for many
years, building standards were so lax (and builders so casually inept)
that a significant percentage of homes offer no protection at all in case of emergency conditions. Frankly, Gilligan's Island had a way better model of sustainability in all ways.
Which now brings us to Hurricane Lane. Considering hurricanes are pretty much a known threat to Hawaii, you'd think they'd have emergency plans out the wazoo. But no, their plans remain firmly in their wazoos along with the residue of a lot of macaroni salad and Spam.
Residents are being warned to head to shelters for safety, but there are a few little problems with that. For one thing, no bureaucrats have bothered to keep a list of official shelters. In reviewing the shelters they can find, it seems that exactly none
of them have been hardened to stand up to even a Category One hurricane
(the weakest and most cuddly sized). But having the roof collapse on
their heads may be the least of people's problems, because many of the
shelters are located in flood zones. Apparently, the emergency preparedness folks never considered the likelihood that a hurricane just might be bringing along a buttload of rain.
If people do go to one of these unsafe shelters (and there's only
room for about one fifth of the population), they're being told they'll
have to survive in a 3 foot by 3 foot space for up to two weeks, they
need to bring their own bedding and anything else important, and - oh
yeah! - bring their own food. Because it never dawned on Hawaiian
officials that people in shelters might actually need to eat. Although
it being Hawaii, there's a fairly good chance that the waves crashing
though the shelter doors will bring fresh fish, and coconuts will
regularly be exploding through windows at 100 mph. So there are some benefits to living in Paradise.
We're obviously hoping the best for the people of Hawaii, but think this
should serve as a graphic (and hopefully not deadly) reminder that there's a great danger in putting too much faith in government bureaucrats to watch after your safety, welfare, and future.
Which is, of course, exactly what those on the Left are shooting for. And if they get their way, we'll all be saying "Aloha" to our very way of life.

I see that the man in charge is Scott Weiner, the deviant San Francisco senator who produced the legislation making it unnecessary to tell your lover, or even those to whom you donate blood, your HIV+ status.
I would say Trudeau's virtue signalling has led us to this pass. Canada should NOT play the victim card!

Tonight's waxing August moon is quite yellow; there is a gap in the smoke that has lain so heavy upon us for the past weeks.
Two years in a row they have turned down international offers of assistance to put out these fires, the product of deforestation, electric storms and, I firmly believe, terrorism. Read:

McCain has decided to end treatment and die. I hope he passes swiftly and as painlessly as possible. Then let him head straight to the hell he so richly deserves.
Every few years another atrocious pedophile scandal in the Catholic Church is exposed and the media does an excellent job of attacking the Vatican. No one mentions pedophilia in Islam or Judaism to this extent when such charges arise. This is just an observation. Christianity and Islam are reviled for pedophilia, yet somehow, in the public eye, Judaism gets a media pass almost every time. But then, to be honest, this latest scandal is on a horrendous scale. And the people will be expected to make the reparations, not the Vatican, as was done in Los Angeles a decade ago.
This absolutely floored me!
This is not a joke. Tourists wear these.

ReplyDeleteYeah, McCain won't be missed.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chart of poker hand ratings. There was a time when I played a lot of poker and knew them all by heart, but that was a long time ago.
Hey, he's gone already! Read about it this morning. Alhamdu lillah!
DeleteWas that not very obliging of McCain? The Press have been lauding him to the hilt not one mention of his very dark side.
