Today’s Book Quote: Putting “Good Morning America’s” Spin in perspective 18 from Fitchburg vs 18 from the entire US

One of the disadvantages of going to my favorite breakfast place locally is having “Good Morning America” on in the background with it’s constant spin. Today’s spin was trying to declare the Iran war a disaster &to overestimate the power of Iran vs our own.

This is quite understandable when you consider that an American victory before the election is the last thing that media wants. If the choice is between our defeat & Iran getting the bomb or the Trump administration having a GOP congress for their final two years they will choose our defeat every single time because Orange Man Bad.

Ironically as I was hearing this spin I was, as I do when I go to breakfast alone reading a volume I didn’t know existed a few weeks ago. As the spin was going on to my right I read the following lines:

Of the eight hundred (more or less,) of Fitchburg [MA] who have served in the army at different times during the war, one hundred forty-two, or upwards of one in six, have fallen by the bullet or by disease contracted in the service.[emphasis mine]

Fitchburg in the War of the Rebellion Henry A Willis 1866 P 148.

I would like to note that at the time of the Civil War or as Mr. Lewis calls it: “The War of the Rebellion” Fitchburg Mass was still a town with town meetings and such and would not become a city for another decade.

The civil war lasted four years and if you take those 142 deaths and divide by four you get 35.5 a year, half that and you have 17.25 every six months.

Think about that math for a second.

During the civil war the town of Fitchburg Massachusetts averaged the loss of just over 17 men every six months.

In the six months that we’ve been fighting the Iran war the entire United States Military has lost 18 servicemen and women.

Yet today’s media declares this war a failure, that a nation of 360 million people is reaching the breaking point due to 18 dead in six months barely over one death for every three states.

I suspect the townsfolk of 1860’s Fitchburg whose young men died would be shocked by the conclusion of the media & even more shock that they’re on the other side.

I close with the following screenshot from a question I asked as I was finishing this post:

:

Maybe it’s just me but if we were losing this war I would think that the number of servicemen Iran managed to kill in six month might just be over the amount of people who accidently drown in the US every two days.

But that’s just me.

UPDATE: Here is a more damming figure for the “Iran is winning” narrative:

So let’s put this is perspective.

225 US service men & woman die annually in accidents.

18 US service men & woman have died in 6 months of war with Iran.

That means that the number of deaths that Iran has inflicted on our service personal in six months of war is about 16% of the number of service men and women who die accidently.

I’m sorry if that’s winning a war I’d hate to see what losing is.

Repeats Under the Fedora: Fauci diaries, DeSantis v Fauci, 4th Doctor Remains Undefeated on the Powerful & the Stupid, Biden’s Tapes and let’s say it one more time

It never ceases to Amaze me that people write things down that incriminate them. The Fauci diaries reveal him to be everything that people have claimed he was for quite a long time. It’s also worth noting he didn’t know that he had a pardon coming when he did.

This is what happens when folks assume their allies will have power forever, it also illustrates the difference between an “Italian” and a “Sicilian” and also an old saying that nobody does good like a good Catholic and nobody does harm like a bad one.

The diaries also not how much Fauci detested Governor Ron DeSantis who apparently was too smart to fall for a lot of his stuff.

This is one of the reasons why I supported DeSantis in the Primary over Trump as I believed that the COVID stuff and the Fauci stuff would be tied to Trump like a scarlet letter while DeSantis would be able to use the COVID business against Biden or whoever the nominee for the Democrats was.

Trump was of course able to deal with this by simply not discussing Fauci during the campaign, he learned quickly it was a loser & dropped the subject. In fairness to Trump on this subject he was born into a culture that held medical doctors in high esteem, a culture where the Hippocratic Oath had not been edited and one where the idea that a Doctor or any medical professional would give false advice to harm the nation & the people in it for fame, wealth & power was practically unthinkable.

There has been a lot said on Twitter/X about the Fauci situation but the thing that is most true is that those who have worshiped Fauci (and let’s not pretend it isn’t worship they have friggen Fauci votive candles) will completely ignore the diaries because to acknowledge them would violate their worldview & they can’t have that.

This is also why the left/media can be outraged by Donald Trump jokinkly comparing Kathleen Collins to Dylan Mulvaney without being able to say WHY they’re outraged because to say why is to admit that men who pretend to be women are not.

The 4th Doctor’s line about the very powerful and the very stupid changing the facts to fit their views remains undefeated.

Speaking of facts and views the Biden tapes are now out and it’s rather clear that the President had classified documents in his possession, knew that the items were classified and discussed them with his ghostwriter.

Look for the same media that went after Trump and supported the Mar-a-lago raid to completely ignore this or pass over it quickly, in fact I think they already have.

(see 4th doctor reference above)

Finally let me repeat something I said a long time ago on the subject of Transgenderism that I’ve been repeating for years and still bears repeating:

If a person decides they are Napoleon & decides to talk, act, & dress like Napoleon even to the point of surgery or even chemical use to make them more closely resemble Napoleon that’s on them, their problem, their delusion, none of my business.

The moment that person insists that I shout: “Vive L’Empereur!” & then tries to use local state & federal law & or cultural pressure to make me do so, then it transforms into my problem to defend my rights & I will defend those rights & not submit.

Are the Democrats REALLY that Stupid on EBT? (The GOP Ads Write Themselves)

Can’t anybody play this game?

Casey Stengel

As all of you know by now the GOP has offered not only a clean continuing resolution to fund the government but has offered individual bills to pay for the troops and for government workers, ALL of which Democrats have voted against keeping government closed.

Meanwhile the anger is building in EBT land:

I particularly love the lady who complains she can’t get lobster

Now Democrats are fueling this anger because they think that the potential for violence in blue cities is going to move the GOP to give in to their demands. An example:

I included the Date and Time in case they pull it but that’s not the point. The REAL point is how badly they’re setting themselves up.

If I’m the GOP this is what I do

  1. Pass a stand alone vote to fund EBT & the Troops in the house Make sure it’s a roll call vote.
  2. Bring up this bill once passed in the Senate, again MAKE SURE IT’S A ROLL CALL VOTE.
  3. Then watch what happens
    • If the Bill passes then the Dem plan is foiled and not only is EBT funded but the Troops are funded.
    • If the Democrats filibuster the bill and it fails immediate cuts ads like this:

President Trump and the GOP want to make sure that our Military and those dependent on food stamps get their payments on time and they brought up a bill to cover them.

But Senator <name of dem senator> voted no: (video of the roll call of the clerk calling Dem Senator’s name voting no.)

Donald Trump wants to make sure your kids are fed but Senator <dem senator> votes no. (video of roll call of Senator voting no)

Call Senator <Dem Senator> and tell him/her to vote the money to keep your kids from going hungry.

I would cut an ad like this for every Democrat senator and use some of that giant GOP cash advantage to start running them in every state where a Democrat Senator is up for re-election (and maybe a few that aren’t). The ads practically write themselves.

I don’t have access to an AI program to make an example ad but I’d bet a few people out there do.

So please Democrats keeps stalling because once Trump cuts those ads, it will be your offices in your home states that the mob storms.

That the Democrat’s have not thought of this amazes me.

Five Fast Under the Fedora Thoughts Abnormal Speed as the New Standard, Not a Devil or an Angel, To Troll or To Troll Harder, I think Kennedy Dodged a Bullet and the most basic reality

There is one headwind that a lot of Trump fans don’t understand. The speed at which all of the things that Donald Trump has accomplished in not even nine months in office is completely abnormal.

That speed is akin to Tom Brady’s run with the Patriots. Brady made dominance of the opponent so much the norm that when he was gone New England fans consider the need to build a winning team against other worthy opponents practically an insult.

Trump is winning when he can and pushing forward to keep things going but even with a better team than last time expecting miracles every single day is self defeating. Keep things in perspective.

Another characteristic of the Trump years that I’ve found VERY annoying has been the two extremes. The “all Trump does is evil” extreme that the entire Democrat party has seemed to adopt and the “Trump is God personal representative on earth” extreme meaning we must always be in lockstep.

While the first is considerably worse to the point where people are actually defending crime and murder both are tiresome. I understand a fair amount of people make their living either by trashing trump or by worshiping him loudly but that’s not for me.

For me Trump is the best president of my lifetime and if his term ended today it would be a toss up if I would rank him ahead #2 or behind Lincoln as #3.

But in the end he is simply the president who will not be president in four years and the various grifters will find another way to grift once he’s gone.

There is one simple rule concerning Trump that when I mentioned it to DaWife had her laughing out loud.

Trump lives to troll his foes (I have a brother like this, he loves to wind up people especially those who are asses)

When given the choice between doing the right thing OR doing the right thing while Trolling his foes, Trump will ALWAYS choose the latter.

When doing a neutral thing Trump will ALWAYS troll his foes.

While a lot of this comes from how they treated him his foes have enabled this by hanging on his every word.

Trump has the advantage here because for decades many of those he trolled approached him on bended knee for cash or to be invited to parties etc, and only turned when he was a threat to their power. He knows them for what they are which is why he will always have the advantage.

On a similar vein Robert Kennedy is having a field day with his foes and there are many and he’s doing it in a very simple way.

He’s speaking the truth openly, and not caring what they say because like Trump, many of those who are attacking him were fans in the past when they thought they could use his wealth or name for their advantage.

So he confronts them directly, speaking plain truth to folks who have gotten rich off of lobbyist money and deals, he knows how the system works and answers with plain factual answers because he actually believes his job is not to protect the CDC but to protect the people it is supposed to serve.

He’s lucky the Democrats did not nominate him, they would have assassinated him by now if they had and elevated a deep state VP to power.

If you really want to understand why so many people are fighting so hard to preserve the deep state, or crime or to destroy Israel etc etc etc it really comes down to one thing.

There were an awful lot of people who made an awful lot of money out of all the grift that was and is going on.

Every single NGO, every single admin, every single “influence” who was and or is getting a piece of everything from China money, to Cartel money, to Qatar money to taxpayer money knows that clearing things up means they are of no use to the elites who are getting the lion’s share of this stuff when means that the days of wine and roses are gone.

This is why it’s smart to live modestly. Once you get used to the very high life it becomes difficult to go back to the norms of life, even norms that are fairly comfortable. Such people will do anything and clutch at anything to keep themselves at the current social level even if it means debt and disgrace or worse.

Hundreds of thousands have been stealing from hundreds of millions and those hundreds of thousands will fight for the right for their cut to the end because the alternative is to see themselves as they are not special, but a regular human being.

Cue Ray Liotta as Henry Hill:
