Congratulations Cape Verde

When a mouse roars, folks listen. Tiny Cape Verde is standing tall in the soccer world, having advanced to the next round of the World Cup. They will not win it any more than America will, but it is impressive that a country with half a million souls has been so competitive. 

America's Pyrite Soccer

The United States men's soccer squad defeated two mediocre teams, and you would have thought they won the world, for all the unmerited enthusiasm and hype. The Americans reverted to form against the underwhelming and under-performing Turks, who had sleep-walked through their first two games. The US victories were fool's gold, Our boys made it through to face Bosnia, but I am in no way confident we will prevail over them, although they are a small country with no great futbol tradition. 

A Simple Proposition

What is good for the DemocRATic Socialists of America is bad for the United States. Socialists are creatures of envy who steal from the productive, thereby sapping the incentive to produce. In this instance, these DSA members share something with National Socialists (Nazis) in that they think Jews should be made permanently redundant (or at least "Zionists" eliminated). 

Know the Difference?

AOC, Mandami, and Tlaib are all "anti-Zionists". The Ku Klux Klan is also dyed-in-the-wool in their hatred of the Jewish State. Guess what political party the KKK emerged from at its inception? The Jew-haters of America have often been DemocRATS for quite a while. 

The Montreal Murders

If you vilify and demonize a group of people relentlessly, you should not be surprised when someone takes that calumny to heart and tries to massacre the folks you have smeared. It is a sad commentary in out society to read comments on social media supporting the murderer and only wishing he had claimed more Jewish victims. 

Starmer Finally Leaving

The wretched Prime Minister of the United Kingdom has finally seen the writing on the wall. Unfortunately his replacement will most likely be just as awful. 

A Serious Lecture

The late night talk show hosts have typically been comedians, but when these folks stop trying to be funny and castigate more than half the population of the country because we happen to have traditional values, why bother to watch them? Johnny Carson certainly did not lambaste the values of fellow Americans, and he was often actually funny. It is sad that those of a certain age think entertainment is watching a performer who needs several writers tell them how stupid they are if they love their country and hold their President in high esteem.
