Go away, Chafee
I haven't shown Polistra and Happystar watching TV in a LONG time. Since I unplugged the monster in 2011, I've pretty much forgotten the whole thing ... but it somehow seems appropriate for this '70s flashback.
As candidates swarm out of the woodwork this season, the vast majority are only contributing to a pattern that lets us know who "wins" the "election". When Label 1 has a hundred candidates and Label 2 has a handful of candidates, this tells you that the insiders have assigned Label 2 as the "winner". Label 1 candidates are taking advantage of this training-wheel scenario to raise some money without the risk of actually serving Goldman for 4 years.
Only one of the Label 1 candidates has done anything halfway interesting. Jindal used the word Hell, and stated the fraudulence of "global warming" firmly and clearly. Meaningless but refreshing. All the others are simply acting as speech synthesizers with different accents, accurately outputting the daily RNC talking points, running for President of Israel as usual, quoting Reagan as usual.
The handful of non-Hillary candidates in Label 2 are doing the same thing mutatis mutandis. They know Hillary is the safely assigned "winner", so they can play around and raise some money.
And that's why Polistra had to get into this picture.
Chafee is blaspheming her profession of
metrology. The French
beheaders of 1792, the original intellectual terrorists, intended to tyrannize everything and succeeded for a while. They wanted to remove ALL living and natural laws and cultural phenomena, replacing everything by their own literally Sadistic genocidal delusions.
Système Internationale has gone as far as it can go in this country. We miraculously resisted when Idiot Jerry and Idiot Jimmy tried to force it on us in the '70s. It has gradually taken over a few areas, but still doesn't dominate.
Go away, Chafee. Natural measurement is the LAST FRONTIER of natural law. We've lost nearly everything else, but we won't let you break through this barrier.
Later: Even
CNN can't take him seriously.
Headline:
Chafee locks down the metric advocate vote.
His spokeswoman, Debbie Rich, said Thursday that Chafee became "intrigued" by the metric system while living in Canada in the 1970s and believes it's "good for our international reputation" to make the switch. "It came to become more of a priority with the multiple mistakes of the Iraq invasion and the subsequent loss of American prestige throughout the world," she said.
This indicates a serious derangement. If you think the problem with our endless series of unprovoked wars is LACK OF METRICATION, you're utterly loony.
Problem: We're making war against every country in the world
except our real enemies. We've lost "prestige", whatever the fuck that means,
because we're infinitely evil monsters.
Solution: Be bold! Go metric!
= = = = =
Later again: Apparently Chafee is really trying to run as an antiwar candidate. He's serious and consistent in opposing our recent wars of brutal unprovoked aggression, and his voting record proves it. Too bad he didn't get better advice about presentation. Now he's ruined his own case by starting with stupidity. Instead of appealing to the 200 million Americans who are tired of war, he appealed to the 200 Americans who are metric enthusiasts. Let me see ... 200 million or 200? Which size of audience do I want? Even the most intense SI type can tell the difference between 200M and 0.2k.
