HALF-FULL REPORT 10/16/15

Download PDF

Warsaw, Poland. I’m here for briefings and consultations with my Polish friends very concerned about the state of affairs in the only country that stands between them and the omnivorous Russian bear.

“It’s very hard for us to comprehend how fast America is deteriorating under Obama,” one of them commented. “We all saw that report this week (10/12) that leaders of an EU government believe Obama is ‘quite mentally unwell.’ We don’t know what government the report is quoting because we know of several EU governments who feel this way.”

“They probably saw that 60 Minutes interview of him the night before,” another chimed in, “where he said, ‘My definition of leadership would be leading on climate change’.” Everyone laughed – until someone said, “Actually, that isn’t funny, that is crazy.”

My response: “Well, believing that we’re creating global warming with a tiny trace of a trace gas[i] is no crazier than believing that Marxism creates prosperity and freedom. You guys know first hand that Marxism is just a rationale for government tyranny. Climate Change-ism is exactly the same. Obama may be nuts, but he’s always nuts in the same way – expanding government power, whether it’s expanding US government power over Americans, or expanding supra-national government power (like the UN) over America.”

“Whatever mental problems Obama has,” noted one of my Polish friends, “must be contagious because it’s sure infected Merkel.”

This elicited loud agreement. “I was in Germany last week – Berlin, Hamburg, and Dresden. It’s important business for me, but I won’t be going back – not until Germany gets a new government that stops the Moslem Invasion and sends these Moslem invaders back home.”

Invaders – that’s exactly what they should be called, not ‘migrants,’ much less ‘refugees.’ Most of them are young men of military age with I-phones and clean decent clothes. They are all funneled to Europe through Turkey – all part of (Turkish Prime Minister) Erdogan’s plan of conquering Europe for Islam like his Ottoman ancestors tried and failed to do.”

“That’s so true – Erdogan is always telling Moslems in Europe “not to assimilate.” You know, there were already 3 million Turks in Germany before this current invasion. Germans are calling it “Merkel’s Invasion,” because she’s letting one and a half million Moslems into Germany this year.”

“And you won’t believe the crime! Women are afraid to walk in the streets of Berlin, Hamburg, and Dresden now for fear of being gang-raped. Police are giving up trying to control the Moslem crime wave. Now the invaders are even suing the German government for more welfare handouts! So, Jack, if you think the US is going crazy, go to Germany where it really is!”

I told them I far preferred being right here in Warsaw, the sanest country in Europe.

That a country in Europe is now crazier than ours’ is of little solace, however, as Zero’s craziness never lets up. On Monday (10/12), he issued a Columbus Day Proclamation which, after paying lip service to Italian Americans, denounced Western Civilization for bringing “previously unseen disease, devastation, and violence” upon the “indigenous peoples of North America.”

White man evil, noble savage good. The same guilt-mongering claptrap that’s been around since Rousseau. So now we’ve got this libtard effort to replace Columbus Day with Indigenous Peoples Day.

Personally, I think conservatives should embrace the idea – as you couldn’t ask for a better opportunity to have more fun exposing liberal hypocrisy. For obviously, the absolute ideal way to celebrate the moral and practical superiority of Pre-Columbian cultures over White Man’s genocidal war-mongering culture-destroying earth-murdering capitalistic imperialism would be to abandon every vestige of the civilization liberals hate as evil.

To live, just for the 24 hours of Indigenous Peoples Day, as did the inhabitants of North America prior to 1492. Not just every material benefit – electricity, the wheel, and all post-Stone Age inventions. Every psychological vestige as well – starting with the very concept of American Indian or Native American or any other collective term.

The concept of American Indian is a modern one, not possessed by any Amerindians until they learned it from Europeans. An Indian’s pre-Columbian identity was that of his or her membership in a particular tribe.

This is why there were no Indians in America when Columbus discovered it. There were Chippewa and Iroquois and Mohawk and Miwok and Powhatten and hundreds if not thousands of others – but there were no Indians, because none of them possessed any sort of pan-tribal notion of common humanity and cultural identity.

Further, these tribes were in a state of constant warfare with each other. Alliances were ephemeral and temporary. The fantastic level of violence perpetrated by pre-Columbian Amerindian tribes upon each other is documented by anthropologist Lawrence Keeley in War Before Civilization: The Myth of the Peaceful Savage.

For Zero to claim Europeans brought “unseen levels of violence” to these tribes is sheer historical ignorance. How much Pre-Columbian violence would liberals have to engage in to authentically celebrate IP Day?

One thing they couldn’t do is pretend to be a Sioux or Comanche, for those Great Plains cultures were made possible by horses introduced by Europeans. So libs on IP Day can’t get around on a horse – in addition to cars, trucks, motorcycles, bicycles and any other form of transportation except their feet. Of course they can’t communicate with anyone except via their unaided voice and smoke signals.

Further, libs would have to relinquish all products of European psychological imperialism, Eurocentric concepts such as the earth goes around the sun, reading, writing, mathematics, physics, chemistry, modern medicine, and all other educational oppressions.

Imagine how much fun you can have demanding libtard lovers of the Stone Age act as they preach. So let’s welcome the opportunity their IP Day gives us – while we give thanks to the Admiral of the Sea, one of the great heroes of history, Christopher Columbus, and the blessings of Western Civilization that his discovery bestowed upon America.

That Zero’s rabidly left craziness has infected the entire Democrat party was on ample display Tuesday night (10/13) during the debate of its prez candidates. The PIAPS was ecstatically declared the winner by the Enemedia because she was better than the pathetic losers she was up against.

Bernie Sanders is a geezer crackpot shouting Marxist slogans he memorized 50 years ago. Martin O’Malley showed how truly stupid he is in the first five seconds, introducing himself as “the former Mayor of Baltimore” – like he wants to govern all America as he did Race Riot City. Lincoln Chaffee is a wallflower. Jim Webb kept whining to Anderson Cooper about not being asked more questions.

Yet it was Webb who gave the best answer to any question. The question was who’s your greatest enemy? Chaffee: the coal lobby; O’Malley: the NRA; Sanders: Wall Street and pharmaceutical companies; PIAPS: NRA, pharmaceutical plus health insurance companies, Iran and Republicans.

Jim Webb: “The enemy solider who threw the grenade that wounded me, but he’s not around anymore.” Webb was referring to an engagement in Vietnam as a US Marine, in which he won the Navy Cross. It was a breathtaking comparison of his pro-American genuine heroism with the despicable anti-Americanism of his opponents.

Sadly, otherwise Webb wimped out, like saying he supported Obamacare for illegal aliens. Here’s a guy with the undiluted bravery it took to win that Navy Cross, and he whines about not being given more debate time when he should have simply taken it and commanded the podium.

As usual, Ted Cruz nailed it. The Dem debate was “a recipe to destroy a country… It was more socialism, more pacifism, more weakness and less Constitution… We’re seeing our freedoms taken away, and last night was an audition for who would wear the jackboot most vigorously.”

This has been a good week for TC. He stunned the psephologists when his campaign announced he’s raised $26.5 million since March and $12.2 in the 3rd quarter, doubling Rubio’s $6 million. In the latest poll (Fox’s) he’s in 3rd place behind Trump & Carson who are in a tie.

Which explains why Cruz made his move this week on Trump. In race car lingo, he’s been drafting behind the Donald and is now ready to slingshot past him. He senses Trump has plateaued, that the guy to team up with is Ben Carson.

Now may be a good time to read George Will’s Ted Cruz’s Audacious Plan to Win the GOP Nomination.

************

I hope Will is right. On the other hand, I think Charles Krauthammer is wrong when he says Hillary’s got the nomination in the bag after debating “an unmoored old man and three ciphers” on Tuesday night.

One reason is apolitical. The media may be crowing over the PIAPS’ “victory,” but the buildup for Biden will begin again soon enough if only to avoid the unbearable boredom of months just waiting for her coronation.

The other reason is Zero and his hatred of her and her husband. He wants SloJoe. The latest Beltway rumor is that he’ll submarine Hillary for sure if Joe will have Deval Patrick for running-mate – the (of course) Black former governor of Massachusetts. It’s a dream ticket for the GOP, for Patrick was a miserable failure and Biden is a joke.

Admittedly, it’s also terrifying, for the only possible way the Dems could win with a ticket as bad as that is by cheating with voter fraud and rigging the e-vote machines. As the Dems would know this, the ticket would mean they have the cheating baked in the cake.

FYI regarding the House Speakership: No way it’s going to be Paul Ryan. First, he really is happy running House Ways & Means. More importantly, several of his colleagues have told me that his being Speaker would be, in the words of one, “a disaster – he’s a champion of total amnesty.” Total. So the fight against him would be total as well.

So who? How about a smart and conservative hot blonde? A lot of her colleagues want Marsha Blackburn to go for it. Let’s hope she does.

************

Speaker Blackburn would be great news. Really good news right now this week? How about the most communist pro-amnesty anti-American union in the country – SEIU – is hemorrhaging members.

************

This will be shocking, but the HFR has decided to advocate gun control. It’s thanks to this report (10/10) that the EPA spends millions on military weapons for its hundreds of armed agents. Enviro-Fascists with “guns, body armor, camouflage equipment, unmanned aircraft, amphibious assault ships, radar and night-vision gear?”

Gun-control in America should start with disarming the EPA and Congress repealing its “police powers.” It’d be a start.

************

We close with the HFR Hero of the Week. The HFR has been pumping up Ted Cruz for a while now and continues to. However, there’s a fellow in the race that said exactly what’s needed today and has the entire Enemedia in cardiac arrhythmia.

Ben Carson Declares War on the Press is the hysterical headline. He told the Washington press corps straight to their faces: “The reason I expose the press is because I want the people of America to understand what they’re doing… your level of insincerity is embarrassing… I gotta tell you guys, that’s why people don’t trust you anymore. I mean you’re down there with used car salesmen.”

A delightful read is Carson Says Media Can’t Stand a Black Conservative.

The Enemedia “can’t stand the thought of a black person who is a conservative, who hasn’t had to make it on their handout and be at their beck and call and doing the things that they want them to do. It just infuriates them,” he said on Breitbart News Sunday (10/11). “They don’t seem to be bright enough to realize that the more they attack me, the stronger I get. People expect them to do that.”

Ben Carson is a mensch. Cruz-Carson or Carson-Cruz. Against SloJoe&Deval (as in devaluation)? It would be a walk – if we can block Dem cheating.
