The pond had to mark down the Oreo this day, and relegate her to the specialist late afternoon slot.
Discovering that Farrakhan really hates Jews is a bit like discovering the Pope is a Catholic or that David Dukes really hates Jews and is in love with Donald Trump …
Oh and Stephen Miller is Dukes' favourite Jew, or so it said here …
But enough, the trap here for young players that the Oreo is setting is to defend Farrakhan, or do the Donald - whom the Oreo once loved - by saying that there were some very fine people on both sides at Charlottesville, as good a way as whistling to Jew-hating neo-Nazis as any American politician has managed in recent times …
No, the way ahead here is just to run the Oreo, note a few contradictions, and move on …
But first a note to concerned readers … the pond can't guarantee it's entirely safe … questions have been asked …
Well the pond has done its duty, and it's on with the read …
As always there's comedy with the Oreo, especially when she talks of dusting off her tinfoil hat, and shouting "it's woo-woo time", when really she shows all the signs of being a total woo-woo permanently blessed with appropriate head gear …
Meanwhile …
Here, and elsewhere at the time back in 2016 … because there's something ineluctable and mysterious about the way that the Donald managed to appeal to the very mixed bag of the Oreo, Farrakhan, Netanyahu, Steve Bannon, Duterte and David Dukes …
There's something almost magical about the way this snake oil salesman peddles his wares …
The pond of course, devoutly atheist, has no time for any of the nonsense, from the gibberish that Farrakhan preaches to the theocratic state that Netanyahu runs (and don't get the pond started on Saudi Arabia, we could be here all day when there's another gobbet of Oreo to read) ...
Truth to tell, the pond only trusts those who eat bacon - exemptions for heart conditions are available, but still, there's always a chance to eat your shellfish, munch on your cloven creatures, or mix your fabrics in fine heretical style ...
That way, you might get yourself around the arrant hypocrisy of saying that something is an academic piece of crap, followed by a disclaimer saying that any assessment of the quality of the academic work is a matter for the relevant university and regulatory bodies …
Did the Oreo read the work for herself? The pond hasn't and isn't about to indulge in mealy-mouthed hypocrisy of the Oreo kind, and so must move on to the final gobbet ...
And at this point, the pond must point out politely that if you're against theocracies, then you must take them as you find them, whether Iranian or Israeli, and state a preference for secular democracy, and let the Oreo's spitting chips fall where they may …
And now as somehow the snake oil salesman yet again wangled his way into the story, a few cartoons …
