Starbucks VP-Communications deletes Twitter account

A Starbucks executive just deleted his Twitter account after backlash over the company’s new ‘race together’ campaign[*1] .

Also, Starbucks coffee sucks. That’s why you need all the cream and sugar in it to choke it down.

* “Social Justice Warrior”: An officious, overbearing, busybody of a mindless knee-jerk leftist twit who has an overwhelming need to feel superior to others by being more “sensitive” or “tolerant” than the next guy, or gal . . . and expresses that sensitivity and tolerance by being astonishingly intolerant and insensitive. They treasure “respectful conversations” which they then define as agreeing with them 100%. If you do not, you are a racist, sexist, homophobe, “worst person in the world,” etc, etc.

The long climb, the sudden fall

It has saddened me beyond words to realized that most people have looked at that better place and said “No, thank you, we prefer the dank darkness of the pit.”

We have a President who truly believes that “because I said so” is a valid governing principle.

We have a media whose fondest wish is to be thought kindly of by that President, and so has absolutely no interest in investigating any of his administration’s transgressions and illegalities.

We have an opposition party whose fondest wish is not to oppose that President, but to be thought kindly of by that media.

We have paid shills among us who try their damnedest to shout down anyone who says an untoward word about the President.

We have fellows among us who mindlessly mouth the bromides of the paid shills because that is all they’ve ever heard, and take visceral offense at any person who dares to utter an “offensive” thought in their presence. And they find nearly everything offensive, and attack the “offender” in the most vicious manner they think they can get away with.

The climb was long. The fall has been sudden. It seems that the only hope now is that we don’t fall all the way down to the bottom.

A Vote For Exploding Trains

Obama has vetoed a bill, passed by Congress, to authorize the Keystone XL pipeline.

Eight days ago, a train carrying crude oil exploded in West Virginia.[*1]

Moving oil by rail is more risky than moving oil via pipelines[*2] .

The only reason for Obama’s veto is his radical, far-left “progressive” ideology of forcing Americans to pay higher prices for energy because of their unshakable belief that “the environment” is more important than actual, living people.

Missing the point of Christmas

I do believe that the current occupant of the office of President of the United States, and all of his supporters, have perhaps misinterpreted the spirit of the season.

Peace on Earth. Goodwill towards Men. Crush and destroy Republicans wherever you find them. Merry Christmas! Happy Kwanzaa! Death to Conservatives! Fight the Power (ignoring of course the fact that the so-called “progressives” ARE “The Power”.)

Here’s an idea. For one day–for one hour–for one minute, give it a *censored* rest, okay?

Ferguson

The current question, vis-a-vis Ferguson, is: Who killed Deandre Joshua?[*1]

“I’m still stunned because he never had any problems. He was a good kid,” relative Brian Joshua, 45 said, as other family members sobbed. “It’s like somebody just hit us with a brick.”

DeAndre Joshua graduated from high school and worked at Walmart, he said.

Walmart said Joshua had worked at Walmart as a stocker for more than a year.

“We are deeply saddened to learn the news that one of our Walmart family members tragically lost his life,” Dacona Smith, senior vice president for operations at Walmart, said.

And the corollary question: Why is the death of Deandre Joshua not as worthy of outrage to the “progressive” media, let alone our disastrous President or his allied mob of racist/Marxist/anarchist/progressive protesters there as the death of Michael Brown?

I fear the answer can be found in a deep and unreasoning racism. And not the racism of white people, either.
