America's deep divide

America's geographical divides are usually high, not deep, as they determine which way the water flows downwards. Each side is a different major watershed. There's the Pacific Crest in the Sierras and Cascades - water falling west of it flows to the Pacific Ocean eventually and that falling east of it evaporates in the great basin or makes it (as a trickle) to the Gulf of California*, the Continental Divide - water falling to the east of it makes it to the Gulf of Mexico, and a more vague divide in the older Appalachian Mountains - water falling east of it heads to the Atlantic Ocean.

America's political divides are thought of as troughs, not ridges. Those at the bottom, with no power, are in the shitshed, if I may. Shit flows downhill toward them from both sides.

Now, Zhou Bai Dien has been saying during his 3 years as President that he is a Uniter, not a Divider. His goal, I guess, is to have all Americans together in the same shitshed, with it flowing at us from all sides. Many of us are not enamored with the idea and are climbing out. Congresswoman Majorie Taylor Greene (MTG) who Peak Stupidity has been highly enamored with as of late, represents the foothills of Georgia, a good place to start a climb.

(For the life of me, I can't find a version that doesn't bleep out the key part!)



This video is a heartening example of American patriots who've had enough, saying so. MTG had had enough of this lefty Brit twit, I guess not interested in the ruin in her own country, trying to embarrass and belittle her rather than doing, like, journalism. (Even like it would be a big step up.)

The title of the video includes, "rage", but that's a lie too (in the Gateway Pundit sense, I gotta admit.) Nobody was screaming - it was a simple remark to get someone to STFU. MTG had been patient and nice enough. She tried to move along nicely, as the lady hounded her. That wasn't working. You've got only so much time in the day, so you have to shut these people up somehow, right?

It's the comments below this video, though, that show this very great political divide between adherents to the Potomac Regime and actual Americans. When I read them, anything that I think MIGHT be written in sarcasm is something I agree with without sarcasm. Anything I'm sure is said in earnest I strongly disagree with.

@johnandrews3568:
MTG doing her Georgia constituents proud again. Man, I wish I WERE one. I'm proud enough of her from where I am.

@bybynewdeal:
Foreshadowing : Illustrates the manner a Republican win will treat journalists AND our allies world wide. One can only hope. This very manner is one thing I appreciate about Donald Trump.

@matthewjohnston3195:
Real classy lady, MTG. There were a number of comments about the class or lack thereof. It this because it's all a class struggle? I'm in MTG's class.

@bortroad5740:
What an embarrassment.
This is the best the US can do.
Those embarrassed by MTG are more concerned with fitting into the Regime than the truth and America. Indeed MTG is one of the best I know of. 500 more of her, and that'd surely MAGA!

@quesadilla79:
Trump quality VP material right there. no composure, no dignity or self respect. Huh? I'd have lost my cool quite a bit earlier. I truly LUV MTG's smile, accent, and style.

@merked1980:
And you're expecting the rest of the world to treat you seriously?)))) Whatever that is could be in a very powerful position this time next year... I believe she once called the gestapo "gespacho". Dark times..
This isn;t about left or right. This is about someone who isn't mentally equipped to be a politician.
Could this commenter have considered comparing MTG to, say, a Bai Dien or Kamala? Talk about your ill-equipped...

Oh, and I wouldn't care about the rest of the world treating us seriously. MTG, just as I do, considers all this "caring" about the rest of the world as part of the problem.

@radic888:
MTG is the epitome of every Orange Man supporter. Agreed! Thank you!

Yes, the divide is deep. The quick take on Geography above has put a song in my head from an old folk duet out of Georgia too, but from southeast of MTG's district, the town of Athens.

Yeah, The Indigo Girls - Emily Saliers and Amy Ray - made it known that they were lesbians after their first album. There was a little too much hype, yet 35 years ago we actually were united enough for it not to cause a deep divide - not for me - they wrote and played some good stuff.

Up on the watershed, standing on a fork in the road... you can stand there and agonize, till your agony is your heaviest load ...



Watershed is from the band's 1990 album Nomads, Indians, Saints.


PS: The reader can check out our post MTG v AOC and others to see what we think of the Congresswoman AOC. I'll give her some credit today, in that, in another recent video clip, she can be seen having had enough of a hounding agent of the press and having the very same reaction as MTG.


* The Columbia River is an exception, I'd say, as that rainfall from the west side of the Rockies long ago busted through the Cascades in the gorges between Washington and Oregon on to the Pacific.

PS: "The corporate media are professional liars. Lying is what they do. No sensible person engages with them."

I think what the astute politicians know, whether they are good people or not, it that you take their questions and just steer the answer towards what you were going to say anyway. No need to answer the question or anything.

MTG is a decent person, and she tried to disengage in a friendly manner. I like her style and see nothing at all wrong or even declasse about telling the annoying newshound what's what. Trump could learn a thing or two from MTG, even.

PS: Peter, I got these comment off of the youtube comments section under this specific video. People there talked about bots too, with the same old crap. I assume you mean the comments on the NY Post web site, right? I didn't look there.

That's too bad about the NY Post comments section. Things always seem to go to shit after a while.

I wrote "they are usually on our side" because it was the NY Post that got on that illegal alien flying into White Plains and Newburgh, NY stuff (no space lasers involved, just aliens) story. They've broken lots of other stories against the Regime narrative, I guess the biggest one being the Hunter laptop story in late Summer of '20, which was quashed by the Regime. Have they learned their lesson to just play ball? (News for them: it won't help you.)

PS

A note on the New York Post comments section. It is FULL of paid DNC or Fed sock puppets. EVERY article remotely about Biden or Trump is stuffed with the same stupid comments. I call them out on it all the time. So don't take them for real, because 90% of them are not actual people.

BTW, my comment handle at the Post is BobbyUgatz. Also, in the past few months the Post, which once had an almost totally open comment system, is now doing a considerable amount of censorship.

PS: Thanks for the links, Adam. That rods from the gods article was interesting. It seems counterproductive to boost a 12 ton telephone pole piece of tungsten up into space just to drop it back down. It takes energy, hence more mass in fuel to get something OUT of orbit too.

I'll put my money on space lasers, designed and built by high-IQ Jewish slave labor - hello, Dieter!

PS: Good afternoon, Gentlemen!

Happy beautiful day (and evening) to you all.

I'm pretty skeptical by nature. (Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof.) I don't believe in any (alleged) moon bases, Jewish or otherwise.

On the other hand...
Jewish Space Lasers???

Well...

PS

Nah, the RoW would be all the countries that don’t matter. The UK and Germany are rapidly approaching membership in that club because they refuse to defend their heritage ethnic nations while at the same time foolishly defending degenerate causes like Ukraine and the state of Israel (as opposed to Jews in general ... the two are not synonymous).

Jewish Space Lasers? Are these in addition to the Jewish Moon Bases?.

PS: Dieter, she meant "Jewish space lasers", and as I don't follow every little he said/ she said part of politics, I can guess it's about something MTG said that is somewhat of a far-fetched "conspiracy theory". From the comments under that youtube clip, I have a couple of possibilities of what MTG and (at this point) the Brit were talking about - what happened in Hawaii or weapons being developed in Israel.

Either way, whether MTG was "out there" whenever it was she made the comments about Jewish space laser or not, this "reporter" was trying to make fun of MTG using that. That's all she was after.

Later on today, I'm gonna substitute in a slightly longer clip later that better showed that MTG was very reasonable during the pop "interview".

PS: "The Rest of the World", as used by the commenter who used this phrase first here, usually means the wide world of countries out there that "matter". To me, that brings up what one would hear all the time 40 years ago and beyond, when America was distinctly less Socialist and more free than the "developed" world - "The rest of the world does THIS. America is so behind" or "a pariah" for doing things differently.

"Who cares?" is what I figured then. Right now, I mean that this country better take care of its own problems, for economic reasons if nothing (a LOT) else, and "avoid foreign entanglements", as the man said, that make it matter what the rest of the world thinks. It would help to be more self-sufficient too, cough, China, cough, cough ...

PS
Mod. - just a sidenote - - the term The Rest of the World is much wider than the use you make of it above.
Put differently: It is rather wrong to think that the Rest of the World would think like this Brit reporter.
Btw.: I think the way she handled the Jewish Slave ? Labor* meme works against her intentions: Because she touts it out.
*she might have wanted to use the term Jewish Slave Trade but was already quite confused/exited** when she said what she said.
**in Yerkes/Dodson's zone of declining mental/intellectual fitness via arousal
