Murder in Colorado–What we can do

Murder in Colorado–What we can do

The tragedy in Aurora, Colorado, was not about politics, ideology, Hollywood, or anything else.

Blaming law-abiding gun owners makes about as much sense as blaming the cast and crew of “Batman: The Dark Knight Rises.” This tragedy was the work of one man named James Eagan Holmes who engaged in an evil act for as of now unknown reasons. They may never be known.

Yet the question of “Why?” leads to the question of “What next?” Where do we go from here? What do we do?

Murder in Colorado

Friday, July 20th, 2012

Due to the senseless and tragic shooting in Colorado, the only question to ask is….why?

Not in the mood for politics today. Just go shake a neighbor’s hand and tell a loved one you love them.

Here is what happened.

Iran murders Israeli Jews while Syria implodes

While Syria was imploding, Iran was celebrating the anniversary of murdered Jews by murdering more Jews. Iran did this because water is wet and they do this.

The Radical Feminist Brandeis July Hate Mail Edition

Tuesday, July 17th, 2012

July hate mail–feminist edition

First came the Top 30 Hottest Women in Politics. Then came the hate mail from spoiled, upper-middle class, over-privileged, white college girls. Here is a special Radical Feminist Brandeis edition of my hate mail.

“Kristina Jacobs
[email protected]

I am writing with regards to your piece “The Top 30 Hottest Political Women of 2012.” In writing this article and participating in crude, blatant objectification of female politicians, you have belittled these women’s political successes by admiring their physical beauty more diligently than their political strides. Your misogynistic diction – “20 breasts and 20 hides per all three political denominations,” “Not all feminists are hideously ugly” – is extremely offensive. Women will never achieve political equality if articles like yours continue to denigrate their power and skills in the name of “harmless” beauty-based rankings.”

Analysis: Articles like mine can keep women down? If I had that much power, then my jacuzzi would be filled every night with Republican Jewish brunettes. Women who claim they can’t succeed because people like me keep them down are overlooking the fact they may have been failures before I wrote my column.

Your misogynistic diction – “20 breasts and 20 hides per all three political denominations,” “Not all feminists are hideously ugly” – is hideously offensive, and certainly serves to discredit the value of your work. Next time, instead of explaining that Kimberly Guilfoyle “bounces in her chair to the music, which she knows drives the male audience insane,” mention her skills and wit as a co-host of The 5. Women will never achieve political equality if articles like yours continue to denigrate their power and skills in the name of “harmless” beauty-based rankings.”

Analysis: Both complainers are college girls at Brandeis. They used the same language. This must be coincidental, but in a classroom it is called cheating. These women lack my ethical and moral compass. The drivel I write is original.

“Carla Smith
[email protected]

I am appalled by your article (if you could even call it that) "The Top 30 Hottest Political Women of 2012." These women who are on your "list" are important, respected, powerful political women who have worked incredibly hard to receive recognition in a white male's game. Your report disregards their achievements and completely objectifies them. I'm sure these women would feel disgusted and disrespected when/if they read this report. I am extremely disappointed in this article. Find something more worldly to write about.”

Analysis: A white male’s game? I did not mention race in the column. This commenter injected it into the conversation. How dare she discriminate against black men trying to keep women down! How dare she not give credit to the many Hispanic and Asian men honoring their paternalistic cultures by suppressing her! Her fake outrage over incorrectly perceived sexism is no match for my fake outrage over racial and ethnic identity politics of all kinds!

Analysis: Another woman at Brandeis offering the same comment? Don’t women at Brandeis do anything of value? No wonder it takes kids 6 years to get through college. They can’t read or write but they can cut and paste.

“Lindsay Ruck
[email protected]

You're joking right? This is all some sarcastic ploy to show how stupid it would be to rate women by their looks in 2012 and act as though this is a good or empowering thing… Right?”

Analysis: If I was joking I would remark about a priest, a rabbi, and a mountain goat. I am going to put very little effort into this commenter and just make an immature remark. To paraphrase the dog from “The Jetsons,” Lindsay, go Ruck yourself.

“Gloria Stepp
[email protected]

The Top 30 Hottest Political Women of 2012

Pathetic.”

Analysis: One word for you Gloria: Venderschwivel. Hey, it’s as good a word as any, and could be a triple word score.

“Marta De Angulo
[email protected]

I am terribly disappointed at your recent article  “The Top 30 Hottest Political Women of 2012”, where you dehumanize women by rating them and objectifying them. I hope your future writings give women the respect and dignity that they deserve.”

Analysis: I respect women. If you want to know who undermines women, look in the mirror. I have no power unless you give it to me. Let me try testing this. Show up at my door with a hamburger and a remote control. Be a Republican Jewish brunette. Be hot, since I will not be listening to you while focusing on the burger and the ballgame. I don’t want power over you. With power comes responsibility, and the last thing I want is to be responsible for you. I’m not Barack Obama.

Hello Mr. Golub,

I'm curious to know when you'll be publishing your "2012 list of the Top 30 Political Men"?

Thank you,
Ms. Meier”

Analysis: Ok, this woman was polite so politeness begets more politeness (the other commenters could learn from her).

Female colleagues of mine will be doing a column of the hottest men in politics. They offered to put me on the list, but I pointed out that would make the list invalid.

I am also willing to put out a list of people I have man-crushes on, but everybody knows I swoon over Charles Krauthammer, Thomas Sowell, Steve Moore, and a few others. Like most people, I look at Paul Ryan and Mitt Romney and think, “no man should be that handsome.”

“Anna Brower
[email protected]

You're a sexist asshole.”

Analysis: To be called a rumpus hole by a woman with the term “backfat” in her email address is just creepy. Perhaps if this woman did not have backfat, I and other men would be more interested. Now if it was a badonkadonk, that would be different. Those I like. A lot.

“Maya Flippen
[email protected]

Your political women article is disgusting–encouraging people to objectify women in power. You should feel ashamed of yourself.”

Analysis: I feel a sense of shame for so many things, from the Macaroni Incident of 2007 (too painful to talk about) to my left leg that no longer tingles when Chris Matthews French-kisses pictures of Barack Obama. It use to feel so beautiful, but now in High-Def it just looks creepy.

The worst part of the social networking generation is that kids smart enough to get into Duke now waste their lives away talking to girls at Brandeis.

“Margaret Thomas
[email protected]

Mr. Golub,

Do not expect people to demonstrate any positive regard for your work as a journalist / pundit if your best efforts at contributing to political dialog entail evaluating the physical appearance of female candidates for office.  These women are running for office on the basis of their professional credentials and stance on core issues facing their constituent territories, not as pageant runway contestants.  If that is the best you have to offer, may your media career be short-lived.

– Margaret Thomas
Stillwater, MN”

Analysis: To steal a line from Fred Thompson, I am deeply offended and insulted that this woman would call me a member of the media. I have done radio off and on for over two decades, and I still reject the label. So I guess short-lived is too late. The best I have to offer is not for you. Only a much higher class of women get to reject that.

Forget Paulbots today. These are leftist feminists. This how they behave.

Based on personality alone, these women seem uglier than a Helen Thomas centerfold where the naughty bits are covered by shrapnel from Palestinian suicide bombers.

I think I just disgusted myself with that remark. Maybe these college girls complaining were right all along.

No, not really.

Will feminists ever stop harping? (of course not)

Monday, July 16th, 2012

Will feminists ever stop harping? (of course not)

Will feminists ever complain about anything important?

Is there a single feminist anywhere in this country who is complaining about anything important?

Do feminists even realize that their entire movement is the child of a cliche mated with a caricature? If they know this, do they even care?

So to the radical feminists out there, start focusing on what actually matters.

Football happenings in July

July football happenings–Penn State, the Saints, Adrian Peterson, and more.

In football, there is no offseason. Quiet Summer July days have actually had a ton of news related to the gridiron. So with that, let’s get to the business of football.

More July Hate Mail–The Ron Paul Adolf Hitler Edition

Saturday, July 14th, 2012

This is a very special batch of hate mail. Welcome to the Ron Paul Adolf Hitler version of my hate mail.

No, I am not comparing Ron Paul to Adolf Hitler. One has funny ears and the other one has a funny mustache.

The problem is that so many Ron Paul supporters resort to racism, anti-Semitism, and other forms of bigotry toward anyone who does not kiss the feet and worship their demigod Ron Paul.

As the son of a Holocaust survivor, I am amazed at how many Ron Paul supporters casually invoke Nazis, Hitler, and other items associated with the truest evil the world has ever known.

Why are they angry at me?

Well for one thing, they are insane.

For another, they are angry that I delete any comments that contain profanity, bigotry, and other hate speech. How dare I “censor” their bile. The ones who obey the rules of civility in discussion do not have this problem. The rest then blather about the Gestapo and the First Amendment.

The Constitution deals with governments. There is no Constitutional right to spread profanity, bigotry and hate speech on an internet message board. These dolts claim to be Constitutional scholars, but the evidence would suggest otherwise.

The third and final reason is a reiteration of the first reason. They are insane.

With that, here is the Ron Paul Adolf Hitler version of my July hate mail.

“Joseph
[email protected]

Who the fuck are you to say RP supporters are not republican and should not attent the convention? We are registered reps, and guess what? This is not 1941 Germany, where you belong!”

Analysis: Where I belong? If this fellow is a registered rep of anything, then that entity is not being represented well. Most likely he is not a Mary Kay Saleswoman. From what I heard, they tend to be polite and rarely invoke Nazism when selling their products.

“woody
[email protected]

Please be honest with me.  Are your opinions about Ron Paul  driven by your religious beliefs or affiliations?”

Analysis: This fellow thinks that because I am Jewish, I am unable to think beyond the narrow prism of my religion. My religion matters to me, but there is nothing in the Torah that gives me any insight into Ron Paul. Many of his supporters are crackpots, and lunacy crosses all strata.

Anyway, this guy seems much less worse than most of the Paulbots, so throw some business his way. He might be lonely. The ice fishing business is not known for excitement.

“Pedro Moller
[email protected]

Yo Eric- here is my question: How does it feel to be Israel's bitch ? Sincerely  Pedro Moller”

Analysis: Israel’s (redacted)? Now if ever there was a reason to raise the voting age to 30, this would be it. This young man would not be so brave saying these remarks to IDF soldiers. A Galil up his (redacted) might do him some good.

“JT
[email protected]

WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY WHY ARE YOU STILL WRITING !?  NO ONE LIKES YOUUUUU OMGGG IT BOGGLES THE RATIONAL MIND , YOU HAVE ZERO CREDIBILITY , ZERO COMMON SENSE , AND 100 PERCENT UTTER HYPOCRITICAL NEOCONNED BULLSHIT ON ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING U HAVE EVER AND PROBLY WILL EVER SAY . RON PAUL IS THE  LAST CHANCE THIS NATION HAS DESPiTE WUT FAILED ZIONIST LOSERS LIKE YOURSELF MAY THINK . RON PAUL HAS WON, YOU ., AS A.LWAYS , HAVE LOST”

Analysis: I know I have published this guy before but his insane rantings are just hilarious. Plus his use of all capital letters goes over well with my older readers from a visual standpoint. It would be fun to listen to him rant and rave if he had a similar voice like boxing promoter Don King. This man is amusingly incomprehensible.

“Barack Obama
[email protected]

Must suck giving Romney head every night there eh Eric? God you are so fail.”

Analysis: I am “so fail”? Do kids even use real sentences anymore. Part of me thinks that maybe this really is Barack Obama trying to sound cool. Then again, if it was him, he would have said something like ‘Wu-Tang Represent!,’ whatever that means. Mr. Obama is accusing me of a sexual relationship with Mitt Romney. Either that or somebody is pretending to be the President. Maybe some storm troopers with battering rams can trace the IP and let me know.

“Jesus Christ
[email protected]

Fuck You; Burn to death in a ditch you scumbag”

Analysis: I always thought Jesus was friendlier than this. Then again, Ron Paul supporters think that Ron Paul is Jesus. So if Ron Paul does not love me, I will survive. As for burning in a ditch, this fellow seems confused. Ron Paul was burned to death, but it was at the cross, not in a ditch. It figures it would take a Jewish guy like me to explain the Ron Paul sect of the Christian faith. It is like the David Koresh wing, but less emotionally stable.

“Horst Schlimmer
[email protected]

Here is my question: Are you a complete idiot or just an cheap establishment hooker?”

Analysis: No man named “Horst” should talk about hookers. His first name when said properly means “hookers.” I have one question for Horst Schlimmer, since Ron Paul supporters love to bring up Nazis and Hitler. Horst, where were your parents? Or was it your Facebook page that told of the love triangle between you, the Fuhrer, and Eva Braun before everything went bad at Treblinka and Sobibor?

His name is actually a German command. His accent when pronounced right shows his real name to be an acronym giving instructions. It says “Whores Slimmer!” He is demanding that his frauleins (frown lines?) lose weight. So not only is he a German Ron Paul supporter  (double-shudder, watch out when they come for the Neocons), but apparently he is bigoted against overweight hookers with crinkly facial skin.

.

“Mike Farish
[email protected]

You're a cockbag, Golub.”

Analysis: Usually the word bag is combined with a feminine hygiene product so this is a new one. Apparently Mr. Farish thinks I am a condom. That would mean I am 96% effective. This fellow thinks I am an A+ Who am I to argue with such a thoughtful young man. My only regret is that remaining 4% ineffectiveness leads to mistakes like Mr. Farish.

Say it with me everybody. These are leftists and Paulbots. This is how they behave.

Now schnell, schnell! They have to run and get to their keyboards to type out more praise for the Fuhrer, Ron Paul, and Jesus, known in Paulistan as the triplets.

Why Mitt Romney has Swiss bank accounts to begin with

Friday, July 13th, 2012

Mitt Romney’s Swiss bank accounts are totally patriotic.

The newest attack on hard worker Mitt Romney by the Dilettante-in-Chief involves the war on Swiss bank accounts.

Governor Romney has every legal right to place his money that he earned wherever he pleases. More importantly, he absolutely should invest overseas.
