Are We Living in the Matrix? The Con in the Conservative Movement

Conservative or Conman?
Some days I wake up feeling like we're all living in the Matrix. How much of what we read in the press is real? How much is manipulation? Who are the movers and shakers doing their best to exercise mind control over the masses? How many of the violent protesters on campus these days are really students at the universities and how many are paid puppets recruited by mob organizers. Who can we trust to tell us the truth? What is the truth anyway, like Pilate asked?

This morning I read an article about William Buckley at Lew Rockwell. 

The Phony Legacy of William F. Buckley, Jr.

I never liked Buckley. He always came across to me as a pompous blowhard. We took National Review for awhile, but it became obvious it was run by neocons whose conservatism was as phony as the red nose on a clown. Many of its writers are warmongering elitists. No regrets over cancelling that rag.

Wait for It: Boots on the Ground in Ukraine are Coming! You Can Bet the Farm on It.

Let's face it. Not only is Joe Biden demented, but his puppet masters are determined to get us into an all-out war with Russia. To date, Uncle Joe has promised the American people that he will not send...(fill in the blank) to Ukraine...and then he proceeds to do it. The recent decision to arm Ukraine with cluster bombs is just the latest escalation in the dirty war, an escalation using particularly evil weapons banned in many countries.

What's a cluster bomb? Here's a brief definition from INews:

Nancy, Nancy, your nose is starting to look like a flagpole

It's getting clear as the nose on your face that Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, and her staff knew about torture, including waterboarding, and didn't object until it became a political hot potato. These days she needs to carry around a flour canister to powder her nose which grows longer by the minute. But who could be surprised? Nancy already threw out the fifth commandment, Thou shalt not kill, and the eighth commandment only forbids lying. Besides, she's the Speaker and rules are for others, especially the opposition.

But who can blame poor Nancy? When the laws of God conflict with the laws of politics, what's a gal (even a devout Catholic gal like Nancy who knows more about the faith than the pope) to do? It was such an opportunity to bash the opposition!

There's plenty to criticize on the torture issue on both sides of the political spectrum, but the charade that Nancy et al occupy the moral high ground is rapidly disintegrating. Nancy on her high horse is plunging down the mudslide into the swamp with the people she's been criticizing. She concurred in the techniques by her silence and now she's lying about it.
