A Red Dawn in New Yorkistan...

 

"Do you know the hallmark of a second-rater? It is resentment of another man's achievement. Those touchy mediocrities who sit trembling lest someone's work prove greater than their own ...They bare their teeth at you from out of their ratholes, thinking that you take pleasure in letting your brilliance dim them...They envy achievement and their dream of greatness is a world where all men have become acknowledged failures..." - Ayn Rand, "Atlas Shrugged"

On Flapping Rectums

 "'Flapping Rectums' is a term I had coined some time ago, although, so far as I know, no one but me ever uses it. I use it as a substitute for the term 'Talking Heads' because it was apparent a long time ago that these people were certainly talking out of their anuses and the product was always either shit or a blast of hot air with a distinct and unpleasant aroma" -- The Overlord

 "And what sort of lives do these people, who pose as being moral, lead themselves? My dear fellow, you forget that we are in the native land of the hypocrite." -- Oscar Wilde, "The Picture of Dorian Gray"

Make it Stop...

 "The object of terrorism is terrorism. The object of oppression is oppression. The object of torture is torture. The object of murder is murder. The object of power is power. Now do you begin to understand me?" -- George Orwell, "1984"

James Burnham Warned You...

 "Where there is no alternative, there is no problem..." -- James Burnham

"There is no one force, no group, and no class that is the preserver of liberty. Liberty is preserved by those who are against the existing chief power. Oppositions which do not express genuine social forces are as trivial, in relation to entrenched power, as the old court jesters..." -- James Burnham, "The Machiavellians"

Your Government At Work...

 


"The Government" is an amorphous blob of about 5 or 6 hundred faces that are the visible pustule that signifies the presence of the underlying disease, and literally millions of nameless, faceless, anonymous, nose-picking morons who only have a job because they managed to pass a watered-down civil service exam with a 62." -- The Overlord.

Authenticity?


The political left has a strange relationship with the word "Authenticity".

Generally speaking, when a Leftist refers to something as being "inauthentic" what they really mean is "This is the Real McCoy, however, admitting so makes me look stupid, so we'll just pretend otherwise".

Defeating the Left, Part Three: The Endgame...

 "Sure I am this day we are masters of our fate, that the task that has been set before us is not above our strength; that its pangs and toils are not beyond our endurance. As long as we have faith in our own cause and an unconquerable will to win, victory will not be denied us..." -- Winston Churchill

The Obligatory "Get Out The Vote Post"...

 

"Elections belong to the People. It's their decision. If they decide to turn their backs to the fire and burn their behinds, they will just have to sit on the blisters..." -- Abraham Lincoln

"When one with honeyed words but evil mind 
Persuades the mob, great woes befall the state..."
-- Euripides, "Orestes"

"The Government consists of a gang of men exactly like you and me. They have, taking one with another, no special talent for the business of government; they have only a talent for getting and holding office. Their principle device to that end is to search out groups who pant and pine for something they can't get and to promise to give it to them. Nine times out of ten, the promise is worth nothing. The tenth time is made good by looting A to satisfy B. In other words, government is a broker in pillage, and every election is an advance auction sale of stolen goods..." -- H.L. Mencken

A Majority of One (An Open Letter to "The Resistance")

"You think I'll weep?
No, I'll not weep. Storm and Tempest.
I have full cause of weeping, but this heart
Shall break into a hundred thousand flaws,
Or e're I'll weep. -- O Fool, I shall go mad."

William Shakespeare, King Lear

Mueller and Tilting at Windmills....

"The truth may be stretched thin, but it never breaks, and it always surfaces above lies, as oil floats on water" -- Miguel Cervantes, "Don Quixote"
