Rand Paul Opposes Giuliani and Bolton, Trump and Political Correctness, Hero Hillary: P.M. Links

• 

  Todd Krainin

  Sen. Rand Paul is totally opposed to both John Bolton and Rudy Giuliani as secretary of state candidates.

• But Giuliani is apparently the leading contender.
• The Wall Street Journal likes my theory about how political correctness explains Trump's rise.
• Trump voters: Yep, we hate political correctness.
• Horrifying video footage of a violence aganst an anti-Trump protester at Ohio State University.
• Lenny, the Lena Dunham newsletter, describes Hillary Clinton as "light itself":

Hillary Clinton did everything right in this campaign, and she won more votes than her opponent did. She won. She cannot be faulted, criticized, or analyzed for even one more second. Instead, she will be decorated as an epochal heroine far too extraordinary to be contained by the mere White House. Let that revolting president-elect be Millard Fillmore or Herbert Hoover or whatever. Hillary is Athena.

I blame the super moon.

[Rufus The Monocled]

Hello.

They finally found violent Trump footage.

[bacon-magic]

And I don't see them linking the Trump voter getting the fuck beat out of him. If these are the only two cases so far, I'd say it is not very prevalent.

[Rufus The Monocled]

Oh, they'll milk it though. They're put it on t-shirts, it will be a rallying cry, it will become a leitmotif, it will...

...bites into cherry pie.

[PBR Streetgang]

such a sweet surprise

[BigT]

My FB feed had a photo of a gay who had been beaten bloody by a group of 'Trump supporters'. Any confirmation? The local PD (San Bernadino?) had no record of it.

[Chip Woodier]

He left the bar alone, so how did anyone from inside get to the alley? I wonder if his wallet is missing.

[Emmerson Biggins]

I've read he is just some guy with Aspbergers. Like real Aspbergers, not the kind we pretend to have here, and this had nothing to do with Trump or Hillary.

Of course it's just some guy on twitter (@lucabreu96), but I find that more credible than a CNN story.

[Zeb]

I know there were times at college where I wanted to put my head down and ram trough some group of activists or other. But having some notion of what is socially acceptable, I didn't.

I think this guy is an aspberger with cheese.

How the fuck was that supposed to be horrifying? ENB needs to grab Robby by his pussy and slap some sense into his hysterical ass.

[Zeb]

Maybe he meant "hilarious"?

Or is easily horrified.

[Half-Virtue, Half-Vice]

Robby has too much power over us with these PM links -- it needs to be scaled back. Had us here begging like dogs and you know he was watching. This is all because of you jealous cuck-callers who can't get over the hair. I blame everyone but me!

[AlmightyJB]

Robby is the best PM links person ever. You all need to so being so needy. You're like a bunch of crackheads.

[Fist of Etiquette]

Trump voters: Yep, we hate political correctness.

So insult us all you like!

[Fist of Etiquette]

Hillary Clinton did everything right in this campaign...

By losing it.

[LynchPin1477]

It's not like elections are about persuasion and popularity. It's our fault. We're failed her.

[Aloisius Kohalich]

Is Hillary really a slapstick lesbian?

[Deli-bro]

Complaining about losing the election while winning the popular vote is like complaining you lost a capture the flag match despite getting the most kills

[bacon-magic]

Fuck, Robbo, do you want an intern to do your work for you?

[Mr. Dyslexic]

Best link EVAR!

[bacon-magic]

That is Injun from India's finest creation right there.

[Pope Jimbo]

Seconded. Either Obama should send Injun his Nobel Peace Prize, or Amanda Marcotte should send him her Columbia J-School diploma. He deserves both more than those knuckleheads.

So, Hitler really is the answer to every question.

[Hitler]

#Hitler 2020.

[But Enough About Me]

Always and forever, world without end, Amen.

[Wizard with a Woodchipper]

that was so fucking satisfying for so many reasons. The Jezebel comment as the camera panned the crowd was hilarious.

[BigW]

That should be the only video that plays every time Robby pulls up YouTube.....

[Crusty Juggler]

Lovely alt text, sir.

[Chipper Morning Wood]

What does it say. I am on mobile.

[Fist of Etiquette]

It reads, "Anti-Trump protesters need to be beaten like Chipper Morning Wood."

[Chipper Morning Wood]

With a ping pong paddle?

[bacon-magic]

Needs more Robbyhorses.

[Col. Chestbridge]

"Needs more Robbyhorses".

Thus definitively establishing that Soave does indeed read the abuse (and hair-related compliments) we hurl at him.

[Zero Sum Game]

Gillespie probably reads the comments directed towards him, but The Jacket won't let him mention it.

[Brochettaward]

Good time to mention what a cunt Nick is.

[Tonio]

Lovely alt text, sir.

You are so easy, Crusty.

[Half-Virtue, Half-Vice]

I larf'd.

[PBR Streetgang]

But the alt-text...

[Bobarian (Would Chip Her)]

Took him a half hour to come up with it?

/Actually only took him 15 minutes and another 15 to get the intern to show him how to do alt-text.

[Fist of Etiquette]

But Giuliani is apparently the leading contender.

How can he match up to the dynamo that is John Kerry?

[BakedPenguin]

15 mg Valium, one shot Dimplepinch, and one helper to point where he should be looking when cameras are around.

Yep truer words have never been spoken

Creepy: echoes the Nazi idea that Hitler was too good for the German people.

Voila! John Bolton.

The Wall Street Journal likes my theory about how political correctness explains Trump's rise.

I'd say Taranto was a voice of sanity among conservative pundits throughout the election campaign.

[Enough About Palin]

Yup. I read him every weekday.

Best Taranto speak: "former Enron advisor Paul Krugman"

[Pan Zagloba]

Fuck you Americans, Leonard Cohen died for your sins

Leonard Cohen, it turns out, died the day before Donald Trump was elected president. His family chose to keep the death confidential until his remains had been buried in Montreal.

That several-day delay in publicly acknowledging Cohen's passing transformed it from ordinary news ? he was, after all, 82 years of age ? to a portent of almost unbearable dread, at least for progressives, who, by the time the death was confirmed on Thursday, were struggling with the fact that a sneering, misogynistic braggart was about to become the most powerful man on Earth.

Then, to top it all off, a beloved poet and singer who personified thoughtful humility ? a man who thanked his audiences on his knees ? was gone.
...
No less a conservative firebreather than Glenn Beck used his talk show Monday to call Bannon a "terrifying man" who "has a clear tie to white nationalists."

But mainstream reporters dutifully went on to quote Trump supporters who described Bannon as an honourable, decent all-round good fellow.

Because my colleagues in the old media are being cowed; they know that the noisy demonstrations will die down, and Donald Trump will be President Trump, and the loopy far right, with Bannon down the hall from the Oval Office, will be exercising vast power for the next several years.

[You ARE a Prog (MJG)]

Jesus, people, he was an old man ready to die. Enough with the Cohen angst.

[John]

And enough time has passed, he was wildly overrated. Even his good songs were not that great. They would have a few lines of really clever and profound lyrics and then a bunch of esoteric shit that didn't mean anything as best I could tell. And he had a voice that made Bob Dylan sound like Sam Cooke by comparison.

[Crusty Juggler]

And he had a voice that made Bob Dylan sound like Sam Cooke by comparison.

[TapDancingXenomorph]

I never cared much for the original "Hallelujah" -- John Cale made it a gem.

When you can so easily bring to life a heartbreaking analysis of divorce AND the botched lobotomy of a transsexual, that's talent.

[Not a Libertarian]

I have admittedly extremely bad and prosaic tastes in music but I have to fully admit, I only vaguely knew who Mr Cohen was and I can't say with conviction that I have ever heard a single one of his songs.

The apparent loss felt at his death (voiced online, I have yet to meet an actual person who has ever even uttered his name) has taken me aback.

Am I the outlier here?

[John]

No. He was always a music nerd thing. He is was the cool kid answer to a question. Before Jeff Buckley covered Hallelujah and they used the song in Shrek, no one outside a very small group of people had ever heard of him.

[Juice]

I dunno. Everybody knows that everybody knows song.

[Zeb]

And Bird on a Wire and Suzanne and Famous Blue Raincoat and Hey, That's No Way To Say Goodbye and The Future and Closing Time.

He was great and wrote lots of well loved and frequently covered songs, get over it. If you don't like him, it's no skin off my nose, but stop trying to out-hipster the hipsters in your head.

[Zeb]

Sorry, the last bit was mostly directed at John.

[Yusef Adama]

He wrote Closing Time by Semisonic?

[BakedPenguin]

No, it's a different song.

[Rufus The Monocled]

It's a Montreal/Canada thing.

I personally don't get it but then again, I don't worship anyone for the arts.

[Rufus The Monocled]

And most of the people gushing over him now don't even know what they're talking about anyway. They just know his name and image and feel they have to do go 'full MacDonald'.

Posers.

EVERYONE LISTENS TO THE MONKEES IN PRIVATE.

[BigT]

EVERYONE LISTENS TO THE fucks MONKEYS IN PRIVATE

[John]

Come on Rufus, you know you love Ms Dion. Just be honest. It's okay.

[Zeb]

Worshiping an artist is always dumb. As is acting like their timely death is a big deal. My relationship to his music is exactly the same as before he died. Though I have been listening to him a lot in the past few days just because it seems fitting.

[Rufus The Monocled]

My buddy is a big fan. I was being a bit obtuse; he does have great work.

[grrizzly]

I heard of Cohen because his song Everybody Knows was in Atom Egoyan's Exotica (1994). Am I hipster enough?

[Yusef Adama]

Not at all

[Zeb]

I'm not bothered that he died. He was old.

I do think he is rated just about right though.

His voice in his later years was pretty beat. But earlier stuff I'd much rather hear Cohen sing than Dylan. And Dylan's voice is way more fucked now than Cohen's ever was.

[Zeb]

I am sick of Hallelujah, though.

[cavalier973]

At least we still have Lou Reed.

[Anomalous]

He better be careful. 2016 has been a bad year for musicians.

[John]

I am sure Mr. Cohen wherever he is appreciates a life time of work being reduced to a cheap mawkish appeal for a horrible Presidential candidate from a country he wasn't even a citizen.

[Zeb]

I like to imagine that he would be amused and perhaps slightly annoyed by it.

[Chipper Morning Wood]

That does not sound very Canadian. I thought Canadians thought Americans were great.

[BakedPenguin]

They like to pretend they hate us. The amount of butthurt they show when they see we don't care what they think gives lie to that.

[John Titor]

400 years later, two armies clash in the radioactive ruins of the Old World as one preaches the Gospel of Leonard, which calls for peace and unity, while the other follows The Church of the Blue Raincoat, which teaches humility and compassion.

[Bobarian (Would Chip Her)]

Does it look like this?

[Rufus The Monocled]

Firebreather Beck? Man, that guy died a long time ago and has softened up quite a bit.

http://www.glennbeck.com/2016/.....n=homepage

[Rufus The Monocled]

I don't understand this.

Please explain.

[Pan Zagloba]

Trump is evil. Leonard Cohen died. I have to draw you a picture now?

[Rufus The Monocled]

Ah. I clicked and saw Neil MacDonald. No wonder. I want my tax money back.

[Not a Libertarian]

But mainstream reporters dutifully went on to quote Trump supporters who described Bannon as an honourable [sic], decent all-round good fellow.

Trump supporters might be saying such about Mr Bannon, but it is not as though the mainstream press has simply been nodding their heads in agreement.

[Pan Zagloba]

It has actually come to this: Beck, former Fox News wildman, is more courageous than the mainstream media when it comes to calling out an extremist.

Everything has changed. A slight minority of American voters saw to that.

This is a reality that can only be coped with, not changed.

Yes, he's saying that mainstream press has been nodding heads to this because they are no longer telling the truth, just repeating Trump's lies.

Bannon formerly presided over Breitbart, a news site with un-exquisite headlines like "Birth control makes women unattractive and crazy" or "Bill Kristol ? Renegade Jew" or "Trannies 49Xs higher HIV rate."

Note that "Renegade Jew" article was written by god damn David Horowitz, that famous Jew-hating neo-Nazi.

[CatoTheChipper]

On the way home, NPR explicitly stated as a matter of fact that Breitbart is racist, sexist and anti-Semitic.

NPR represents the very best of American journalism, and would never state an opinion as a matter of fact.

I don't follow Breitbart, so I went over there to see just how bad it is. Frankly, I didn't see much evidence of NPR's assertion other than its favorable coverage of Donald Trump, but that's enough for me. If Breitbart supports Donald Trump, it must be as racist, sexist, anti-Semitic, Islamophobic, homophobic, and white-privileged as a basket of deplorables.

[Raven Nation]

No less a conservative firebreather than Glenn Beck

Umm, Beck was pretty solidly anti-Trump.

[John]

Beck also lost his mind and is last I saw Peter Suderman level nuts.

[Raven Nation]

Not disagreeing but, example?

[C. Anacreon]

He did that stupid song about two turntables and a microphone.

[Zunalter]

Instead, she will be decorated as an epochal heroine far too extraordinary to be contained by the mere White House.

Anyone else reading that as a cankles commentary?

[BakedPenguin]

No, from the overall fawning. "get-some-fucking-self-respect" tone of that letter, I think Dunham really, really wants a date with Hillary.

NOMB. But if I'm right, I'm really glad it's unlikely they could ever procreate

I am not condoning violence, but going to a shopping mall with a bullhorn is a pretty dick move.

It was in the Student Union. I presume political "discourse" is common there.

Who knows what horrific triggering words were being spoken by the guy with the bullhorn ?

He was probably inciting violence.

Horrifying video footage of a violence aganst an anti-Trump protester at Ohio State University.

Some dude tackled him. Not good but horrifying? Please tell me Soave was being sarcastic here. And since Reason refuses to cover any of the violence committed against Trump supporters, some of which really is horrifying, this is a bit rich.

[Acosmist]

Spiders horrify him. And those house centipedes. Can't say I blame him. Imagine if they got in his hair!

[Douchey defeats Trumpman, Jr.]

He was tackled!? Someone get me crayons and a coloring book, stat!

[The Hyperbole]

More accurately, he was shoved from behind off the second or third step of a flight of stairs, not horrifying in my book but you could definitely break some bones that way.

[Mad Scientist]

Is the horrifying part the shoving? Or is it the crowd chanting "Shame! Shame!" as the guy is led away?

[The Hyperbole]

"not horrifying in my book" , also didn't listen so not scared by chanting either.

[You ARE a Prog (MJG)]

Or suffer brain damage or something.

[Diane Reynolds (Paul.)]

Yes, the guy that got tackled risked some nasty injuries. Guy who tackled him is a colossal asshole and should have gotten his ass kicked. Be better than that, Trump supporters, even if the speaker had that awful neck scarf.

[Timon 19]

The tackler was not a Trump supporter and the tackle-ee is seeking to drop all charges and pulled a tremendous 180 in the press.

[Sir Digby Chicken Caesar]

Speaking of that awful neck scarf, I'm almost of the opinion the guy was tackling him for his atrocious wardrobe.

Seriously; wasn't Mr. Socialist in a Taco Bell commercial?

[DEG]

I haven't watched the video. Some guy tackled an anti-Trump protester and that is horrifying? That's bad, but not horrifying. The video of the white guy getting beat by black guys in Chicago is closer to horrifying.

[Chipwooder]

15 minutes of fame my ass - what's Dunham up to, 175 minutes? How much longer is that talentless bag of fat going to hang around?

[TheZeitgeist]

...what's Dunham up to, 175 minutes kilograms?

FTFY. And the answer is 'yes.'

[BakedPenguin]

She's an lesbian "entertainer" with the right politics. Hollywood keeps people like that around so they can invite her to parties to show off their correctness.

[Not a Libertarian]

Say what one will about her boyfriend Jack Antonoff, lead singer of group ffun he ain't a woman.

This would lead me to assume that Ms Dunham is perhaps not a lesbian.

[Sir Digby Chicken Caesar]

he ain't a woman

I'm not so sure about that.

[C. Anacreon]

His actual name is Jack Anoff?
Show me the birth certificate.

I guess if Lena Dunham was your gf you'd probably have to be jackin off a lot, usually when she's away.

Reposting from the PM Links*: Good to use anytime Tony shows his face in any thread for the next four or eight years.

If I were worried that Trump had a shot at winning I would be well on my way to my bungalow in New Zealand.

With any luck, he'll get sick of our badgering and go away forever. But probably not.

* - Yeah, I went there.

[The Last American Hero]

There's no way we rid ourselves of Tony. He thinks the commentariat is chock full of enthusiastic Trumpers, and will take delight in laying every gaffe, policy fuckup and freedom infringement at our feet, like a senile feral cat that brings dead mice home to the wrong house.

[Pope Jimbo]

This made me laugh and mist up a bit. Reminded me of my own stupid cat who passed on a while ago. He would come to the right house, but he would forget if he left his trophy at the front or back door and spend hours looking around for his missing mouse. Then his joy at finding it when he finally got around to using the other door.

[Brett L]

Aww.

[BearOdinson]

Funny thing I was a very reluctant Trump supporter once he got the nomination. Still considered voting Gay Jay until about 4 weeks out. The more the left kept speaking, the more enthusiastic I got. When I woke up Wed morning, all I could do was sing "Ding Dong the witch is dead."
I still have a number of areas that we will certainly have to fight on. But every day that goes by makes me happier and prouder that I did my (admittedly insignificant) part to keep that fucking cunt from the White House and I still don't think Trump is going to end up being all that bad.

[John Titor]

Pointless, Tony's already spewing the 'but but popular vote' nonsense. Because apparently the social contract is important until he gets fucked, then it's time the throw a temper tantrum.

[Tony]

I'm good. I'm white and have some money in the bank. Sucks to be a Muslim girl about now, though.

[John Titor]

Especially when you're a single mother who can't afford health insurance thanks to Obamacare.

*standing ovation*

[Pan Zagloba]

I know! Honor killings, arranged marriages, dress codes, inability to mix with other people without male approval...

[John Titor]

On top of that, even if you're lucky enough to have fairly moderate Muslim parents, guess what? You drop out of the faith you're completely disowned. Had a couple people I know experience that. One had her father scream whore at her over and over again for having a non-Muslim boyfriend.

Fun times. All I get is my Catholic mother calling me once and awhile to try and guilt me into church 'for my soul'.

[Pan Zagloba]

Tell her "Only if I can appoint an anti-pope. No? Then to marry a woman with claim on East Francia. Until then, no!"

[John Titor]

"Can't go back til I'm done my Penance Crusade mom, Pope said so, and Afghanistan's pretty much done."

You joke but once I almost got her to convert to Anglicanism after she got upset about the church 'flip-flopping' on fish on Fridays. THEN I got the angry phone call from my dad.

[SimonD]

actually it sucks to be a Muslim girl anytime. Have you seen the way women are treated in Muslim countries?

[Rufus The Monocled]

Sure it sucks to be a Muslim girl....in Arab countries run by terrorist-killers.

And gays I might add.

You poor, poor man, Tony.

When will we know the panel's findings?

The panel will have to report back to the government by November before legislation is introduced in spring 2017.

Is possession of marijuana for personal use going to be decriminalized in the meantime?

Doesn't look like it.

Then, Mexicans.

Canada will lift its controversial visa requirement for Mexican visitors before the end of the year, while Mexico has agreed to end long-standing restrictions on Canadian beef imports, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Tuesday.

Now, ass sex.

The Liberal government is repealing what it calls a "discriminatory" law that makes it illegal to have anal sex under the age of 18, unless it is between a husband and wife.

So, you guys wanna immigrate yet? I'll put in a good word for any of you over Lena Dunham.

[The Fusionist]

"Canada will lift its controversial visa requirement for Mexican visitors before the end of the year, while Mexico has agreed to end long-standing restrictions on Canadian beef imports, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Tuesday."

You mean Canada got something in exchange for loosened immigration policies?

You're supposed to unilaterally do what they want!

And also, does NAFTA allow those sorts of beef restrictions?

[Dick N. Bimbose (n?e Cooper)]

I have no beef restrictions, if you know what I don't mean.

Repealing that ass sex law spikes the "appeal to rebellion" angle enterprising young Canucks are surely using to get a little dirty.

[OBJ FRANKELSON]

Okay, it was a pretty low metric to start with, any change would be a significant increase. I would be curious to find out what these incidents of violence were. Because, given the history, I would not be at all surprised if they were mostly non-crimes like 'hate speech' or 'bullying.'

[Enough About Palin]

[Pope Jimbo]

Ooh, I know this one! Muslim hate crime has increased by more than 500% and scared leaders. Of course that means, that it went from 2 to 11 (and those start/stop dates were cherry picked).

It is also interested in how local law enforcement is begging people to come forward with stories of being harassed.

So we've had 11 incidents this year of people hate criming on muslims and just convicted 9 muslims of trying to go to Syria to join ISIS. About even I say.

[Pan Zagloba]

Hillary Clinton did everything right in this campaign, and she won more votes than her opponent did. She won. She cannot be faulted, criticized, or analyzed for even one more second.

It's so easy right now to whip themselves up into a fury. One of them gets a can of spray paint, the media turns the result into something a Trump supporter did.

Wear your "Make America Great Again" hat and say a few favorable things about Trump and the media will eat it right up.

Jessica Valenti has written an autobiography. And yes, it reveals her to be even more hideous than you could have dreamed she was.

Every time I see a dirty cup on the kitchen counter, my face gets red. The level of disrespect feels . . . as if Andrew has hopped on the counter, pulled down his pants, and taken a shit there for me to clean up. My husband is lovely. He is a feminist. . . .
He tells me to leave the cups on the counter and the socks on the floor. He'll get to them eventually. But I can't. I don't believe him. And I can't write in a house where something is wrong.???S

Trump transition team eyeing Teachers' Union Enemy Michelle Rhee

The Donald Trump transition team is eyeing former Washington, D.C. public school chancellor Michelle Rhee for Secretary of Education, multiple sources close to the transition tell the Daily Mail.

The appointment of Rhee ? who has been dubbed 'Public Enemy No. 1' of the teachers' unions -- would be a bold move by the Trump team, and a signal that his administration is gearing up to take an aggressive stance on education reform.

It would also cut across partisan lines. Rhee is a lifelong Democrat, and a proponent of Common Core, a set of federal education standards that is opposed by many conservatives and Donald Trump.

[DesigNate]

Was she the one that was ousted from the DC schools because she wanted to do school choice?

[John]

She wasn't ousted, the mayor who appointed her was. And she didn't want choice so much as accountability in the DC schools.

[John]

Rhee is a seriously smart woman. She did a lot to fix the DC schools. And the Progs hated her for it. We can't have black kids learning anything and getting uppity you know.

Iowa lawmaker to colleges: 'Suck it up, buttercup'

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) ? A Republican lawmaker in Iowa says he'll introduce legislation that would cut the budgets of state universities that spend money on students upset about the presidential election.

The Des Moines Register (http://dmreg.co/2fRd0W5 ) reports that Rep. Bobby Kaufmann calls the planned legislation the "suck it up, buttercup bill." It would target state universities that use taxpayer dollars to fund election-related sit-ins and grief counseling above and beyond what is normally available to students.

I am guessing Iowahawk has something to say about this.

[Cdr Lytton]

Excellent. High school kids around here are being allowed to skip class to "protest". I want a refund for those missing hours.

The sad part is one of the papers quoted one whining about how Clinton won the popular vote and therefore should be president.

France Insists on Perpetual State of Emergency

PARIS (AP) ? French President Francois Hollande says he wants the country's state of emergency prolonged until its presidential election next spring.

Hollande said in an interview Tuesday with three French media outlets that France is "at war" in three places. Those are in Iraq and Syria as part of the coalition carrying out airstrikes, in Mali where French soldiers are still trying to rout Islamist extremists, and Hollande says "we are confronting people, very regularly, who want to attack us here, on our soil."

He says "I want to prolong the state of emergency until the presidential election" in April and May, noting that parliament must approve the measure.

Surely that will help him come election time? Sounds stupid to me. Its de facto acknowledgement you aren't in control.

[Pan Zagloba]

To quote the World's Most Deplorable Canadian from yesterday

I've spent much of the last six months in France, and there was both an absurdity about it - the soldiers patrolling the nude beaches - and also a grim passivity, especially in a drab and diminished Paris of canceled events and a noticeable absence of tourists.

No formal challenger has surfaced to Pelosi, but Ohio Rep. Tim Ryan has emerged as the de facto leader of a younger group of House Democrats looking for new direction.

But even if Pelosi stays, the source acknowledged a need for change elsewhere among the Democratic leadership.

"Our caucus needs a change, but it's not at the top. Replacing a woman with a white male would mean that the next time our nation's leaders meet -- the President with Senate and House leaders -- will look like the first time our nation's leaders met," the member added, referring to Tim Ryan's possible candidacy.
