Seems like there’s an endless supply of stupid from the alt-left hate spigot. As no doubt everyone is aware, many in the shrill alt-left community are not amused by their candidate’s loss in the last election and more specifically, with the ascension of Donald Trump.

We’re almost 2 months into the aftermath of the election and the snowflakes are still holding their breath and pounding their fists. Self styled ‘celebrities’ have vociferously come out in protest over the result.  Like an infested boil, they feel the need to constantly scratch and poke at it and worst of all, are compelled to share this with others.

Nobody cares. They may be yelling into an echo chamber, but normal people look at these ‘brave’ culture warriors in a new light; as entitled deniers of a democratic process.  I can’t recall the last time my plumber needed to foist his views of immigration upon me.  Nor do I recall my mechanic lecturing me on Roe vs Wade while performing an oil change.  We seldom need to direct our waiter to bring us the bacon mushroom burger but hold the political sanctimony.  Because despite their possibly strongly held views, nobody else cares what they think. It’s always been unclear to me why people whom are fortunate enough to make a living off of some marketable talent, think that their expertise and wisdom extends past their guitar pick or stage deck.  It’s the height of arrogance.

In 2003, The Dixie Chicks chose to enter the political fray with their negative sentiments on George Bush during a concert in the U.K.  That seems to be the model for Springsteen’s recent declaration of embarrassment of being an American at a concert in Australia.  Way to be brave Bruce, go for the low hanging fruit.  It would be a tad more impressive if you were in Saudi Arabia or China criticizing human rights.

The fact is, he could have just as easily revealed that he collects furby porn or prefers to wear string underwear.  It’s irrelevant.  Artistes of all stripes should get involved politically if they don’t like things by doing what regular folk do.  Write articles, be an activist, run for office, but don’t invade the sensibilities of paying customers with vapid rants.  Take the advice of the aptly named Dixie Chicks concert tour years ago… Shut Up And Sing.

There’s diddling your lips crazy, there’s talking to yourself  crazy, there’s yelling at the moon crazy, there’s cutting your own hair with garden shears crazy…and then there’s Nancy Pelosi.

Pelosi is the long time, and we do mean long, San Francisco based leader of the now minority Democratic House in Congress.  Despite a career of utterances of truly bizarre logic, she continues to be elected into office by her constituents.

Here’s but a smattering of her nuggets of wisdom over the years, many of which would embarrass Yogi Berra:

But we have to pass the bill so you can find out what is in it, away from the fog of the controversy.

Don’t underestimate your opponent, but don’t overestimate them, either.

Every month that we do not have an economic recovery package 500 million Americans lose their jobs.

I was pampered in the fact that I had five older brothers, which I highly recommend to anyone.

America must be a light to the world, not just a missile.

Americans deserve a better tomorrow, today.

Think of an economy where people could be an artist or a photographer or a writer without worrying about keeping their day job in order to have health insurance.

There’s a storehouse of these bon mots at Brainy Quotes.

Many of these recorded utterances are amusing, but many are simply sad.  Her most recent accusations against the incoming Supreme Court justice are vintage Nancy.  Would anyone other than her constituents really swallow the notion that Judge Gorscuch will be opposed to air, food, water and medicine? I suppose it’s possible that her constituents may only understand things in block letters and primary colors, but at what point does someone decide that perhaps medical professionals should be involved?

Pelosi is not alone in her delusional utterances; she leads an entire party prone to making accusations and declarations that not only defy credibility and logic, they cast doubt over the entire education system from which they were exposed.  Maxine Waters is exhibit B. They of course will always find a support base.  Even crazy people need representation.
