The pond decided it would race through the Oreo this day …
Everyone knows the song, and the lyrics, so why not just speed up the tempo? Do a Gergiev with the toothpick, and it would be done and dusted in no time …
Remember, UN and two legs baaad; nation states, international disputation, world wars without amelioration and four legs good …
Oh, and oh how we fear the Islamics, though there are some good Islamics, like the theocrats that get along with other theocrats ...
What struck the pond in that first gobbet? Well surely when the Oreo hit the "print the diatribe" button, or pressed "regurgitate the usual bile" key, something went wrong …
"… a wringing of hands and gnashing of veneers in the upper echelons of lowbrow culture."
Say what? Highbrow ponces and wan effetes and inner city 'leets and lawyers and cardigan-wearing bureaucrats and academics - you know, of the kind that boast of their UN connections - have suddenly been downgraded to "lowbrow"?
Now on to those dangerous Islamics and their ghettos … and all the usual paranoid ranting and raving, perhaps with a bit of theatrical spittle dressed in ...
Was it only a short time ago that the Oreo was boasting of her UN credentials?
Indeed it was, but now quickly, more a gallop than a saunter through the final gobbet of paranoid fear and loathing because the Donald calls...
Phew, that's done and dusted and the reason the pond is pleased is that it had a few spare cartoons to use up, and the reptiles thoughtfully provided an opportunity …
Ah, another attempt to reassure the pond that the United States will continue its quick decline and the Donald will stick around to guarantee late night entertainment from stand-up comics … and by the looks of it, the Oreo had been passed over, and it was Loosley who had been blessed with the Lobbecke cult offering of the day …
By rights, the pond should have featured the Lobbecke at the top of the page …
Splendid stuff, and in the spirit of the Lobbecke, the pond offers a cartoon of hope …
Now the pond has already reported this day on the Major Mitchell brooding about McCarthyism and completely missing the McCarthy-ist point, as the Major is wont to do, and Loosely had another go, linking the Donald with good old Joe ...
What was that about truth and lies being interchangeable commodities?
In 2016, Trump led Clinton among women voters by 20 points?
In 2016, Trump led Clinton among women voters by 20 points?
You'd think the reptiles would have enough space for a little nuance. The pond certainly has the space for another cartoon …
And so to a little Trumpish boosterism ...
Happily it seems that Loosely thinks the Donald can go on implementing great and important and useful policies from the bunker, so that perhaps in due course we might have a new flurry of Downfall memes on YouTube ..
And that would mean more cartoons celebrating the Donald's policies …
But then the pond was alarmed to read that Loosely was actually deviously heading towards the notion that the Donald might be vulnerable ...
The pond is a sentimentalist, and sentiment is formidable. What would the world, waiting expectantly for the complete collapse of the United States, do without the Donald? Where would the laughs come from?
Whenever the pond is feeling down in the dumps, there's the Donald, or Donald-related issues, and they're always available to help out stand-up comedy and cartooning …
Never mind, if he must go, he must, but there will still be years of jokes and laughs to follow … (and for those unaware of the real McLovin, Greg Hunt here)
Oreo: "The UN has learned nothing from the EU's failed experiment in mass migration from the Islamic world to the West."
ReplyDeleteI wonder if it will ever be even vaguely possible to get through to the Oreo and her ilk that back in the 1960s Germany imported a large number of Turkish "guest" workers such that today there is at least 2.5 million residents of Germany with Turkish origin. Do we hear about them ? Have they imposed sharia law ? Has there been a rash of terrorist actions in Germany since the 1960s ? Any 'no-go' zones (other than in Fox News' febrile imagination) ?
No ? I wonder why. Especially when we remember that the Turkish immigration occurred into only half (or less) of today's Germany, since the Turks were not admitted to the Communist East.
In the three years 2015-2017 inclusive, approximately 1.35 million Middle Eastern immigrants and refugees came to Germany - and that's into the combined (East+West) Germany of today, so they're a much smaller percentage of the German population now than were the Turks back 50 and more years ago.

So what exactly is this "failure" that she claims ?
And Oreo again: "...it set off a wringing of hands and gnashing of veneers in the upper echelon of lowbrow culture."
Oh wau, she's really waxing poetically polemical now. How soon before Jenny adds a 'modest but impressive' tome of ratbag racist verse to her Curriculum Vitae alongside her UN credentials ?
Actually GB, she said "from the Islamist world to the West.
DeleteNow I've been rifling through my atlas all day, and cannot find such a world.
Islamic or Islamist ? Hmm, is there a difference ?
DeleteBut either way, Merc, you won't find it in an atlas because all atlasses are merely skin deep. You need to be able to penetrate to the depths of Jahannam to trace the connections of the Islamic World.
