Welcome to Ye Olde Colde Furye Blogge’s shiny new open-comments thread, where y’all can have at it as you wish, on any topic you like. Do note that the official CF comments policy remains in effect here, as enumerated in the left sidebar. All new posts will appear below this one. There will be blood…
Comments policy
NOTE: In order to comment, you must be registered and approved as a CF user. Since so many user-registrations are attempted by spam-bots for their own nefarious purposes, YOUR REGISTRATION MAY BE ERRONEOUSLY DENIED.
If you are in fact a legit hooman bean desirous of registering yourself a CF user name so as to be able to comment only to find yourself caught up as collateral damage in one of my irregularly (un)scheduled sweeps for hinky registration attempts, please shoot me a kite at the email addy over in the right sidebar and let me know so’s I can get ya fixed up manually.
ALSO NOTE: You MUST use a valid, legit email address in order to successfully register, the new anti-spam software I installed last night requires it. My thanks to Barry for all his help sorting this mess out last night.
Comments appear entirely at the whim of the guy who pays the bills for this site and may be deleted, ridiculed, maliciously edited for purposes of mockery, or otherwise pissed over as he in his capricious fancy sees fit. The CF comments section is pretty free-form and rough and tumble; tolerance level for rowdiness and misbehavior is fairly high here, but is NOT without limit.
Management is under no obligation whatever to allow the comments section to be taken over and ruined by trolls, Leftists, and/or other oxygen thieves, and will take any measures deemed necessary to prevent such. Conduct yourself with the merest modicum of decorum, courtesy, and respect and you'll be fine. Pick pointless squabbles with other commenters, fling provocative personal insults, issue threats, or annoy the host (me) and...you won't.
Should you find yourself sanctioned after running afoul of the CF comments policy as stated and feel you have been wronged, please download and complete the Butthurt Report form below in quadruplicate; retain one copy for your personal records and send the others to the email address posted in the right sidebar.
Please refrain from whining, sniveling, and/or bursting into tears and waving your chubby fists around in frustrated rage, lest you suffer an aneurysm or stroke unnecessarily. Your completed form will be reviewed and your complaint addressed whenever management feels like getting around to it. Thank you.

Notable Quotes
"America is at that awkward stage. It's too late to work within the system, but too early to shoot the bastards."
—Claire Wolfe, 101 Things to Do 'Til the Revolution
Claire's Cabal—The Freedom Forums
"There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
—Daniel Webster
“When I was young I was depressed all the time. But suicide no longer seemed a possibility in my life. At my age there was very little left to kill.”
—Charles Bukowski
“A slave is one who waits for someone to come and free him.”
—Ezra Pound
“The illusion of freedom will continue as long as it’s profitable to continue the illusion. At the point where the illusion becomes too expensive to maintain, they will just take down the scenery, they will pull back the curtains, they will move the tables and chairs out of the way and you will see the brick wall at the back of the theater.”
—Frank Zappa
“The right of a nation to kill a tyrant in case of necessity can no more be doubted than to hang a robber, or kill a flea.”
—John Adams
"A society of sheep must in time beget a government of wolves."
—Bertrand de Jouvenel
"It is terrible to contemplate how few politicians are hanged."
—GK Chesterton
"I predict that the Bush administration will be seen by freedom-wishing Americans a generation or two hence as the hinge on the cell door locking up our freedom. When my children are my age, they will not be free in any recognizably traditional American meaning of the word. I’d tell them to emigrate, but there’s nowhere left to go. I am left with nauseating near-conviction that I am a member of the last generation in the history of the world that is minimally truly free."
—Donald Surber
"The only way to live free is to live unobserved."
—Etienne de la Boiete
"History does not long entrust the care of freedom to the weak or the timid."
—Dwight D. Eisenhower
"To put it simply, the Left is the stupid and the insane, led by the evil. You can’t persuade the stupid or the insane and you had damn well better fight the evil."
—Skeptic
"There is no better way to stamp your power on people than through the dead hand of bureaucracy. You cannot reason with paperwork."
—David Black, from Turn Left For Gibraltar
"If the laws of God and men, are therefore of no effect, when the magistracy is left at liberty to break them; and if the lusts of those who are too strong for the tribunals of justice, cannot be otherwise restrained than by sedition, tumults and war, those seditions, tumults and wars, are justified by the laws of God and man."
—John Adams
"The limits of tyranny are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress."
—Frederick Douglass
"Give me the media and I will make of any nation a herd of swine."
—Joseph Goebbels
“I hope we once again have reminded people that man is not free unless government is limited. There’s a clear cause and effect here that is as neat and predictable as a law of physics: As government expands, liberty contracts.”
—Ronald Reagan
"Ain't no misunderstanding this war. They want to rule us and aim to do it. We aim not to allow it. All there is to it."
—NC Reed, from Parno's Peril
"I just want a government that fits in the box it originally came in."
—Bill Whittle

If we just had a president that was unafraid to deal with the chinese, a president that doesn’t owe the chinese anything…
“Municipalities and cities across China have not been able to pay civil servant salaries and promised benefits, and for months there have been protests, even in wealthy cities like Wuhan in Hubei province and Dalian in Liaoning.
In Shenzhen in Guangdong province, teachers in public elementary schools are not getting full salaries.
Localities, dependent on crumbling property revenues, are going broke. Attempts to raise new revenues are now starting a fresh round of demonstrations.”
He’s absolutely right.

The BRICS as a replacement for the USD is laughable.
The US economy has problems, exacerbated by the commie installed in the
WhiteRainbow House, but really. That basket of dropped eggs is the strongest competitor?There you go, dashing the hopes of every commie on earth with the truth.
If they back it with gold and oil they can do anything they want.
Texas “professor” says wealthy white men most likely repeatedly violate the rights of others.
News flash “teaching” moron, it’s wealthy white men that pay the damn bills, including your salary and all the damn welfare checks.

The plan to reign in the deep state, should an American president ever again hold the office –
Much of it was done by Trump in his first term.
Carpe Donktum is funny as shit. He will be Mackeed in the end though probably.
“Everything constructed around DeSantis is fake, even the fake blue-collar handshakes that have to be photo-shopped to give a common man impression.“
Floridians endorsing Trump:
Worthy cause. Women fights the communist Governor Cooper (NC).
I gave. Consider doing the same.

Ah, little coward pussy downvotes giving to a true hero and freedom fighter.
Oh look, the downvote pussy has learned to click multiple times. It’s like Pavlov’s dog.
Yea, I know, it’s unfair to the doggies.
The benefit of a veto proof super majority:
No trannies allowed in girls sports in NC:
Congress today also, but no hope the senate will pass it, and even if they did the potato’s handlers would veto it:
Lets get girls out of the Boy Scouts before I care at all about men in women’s sports.
I don’t know why we can’t do both. OTOH, the Boy Scouts are a private group, taken over at the national level by commies. They can arrange the Boy Scouts to include girls and be quite different than men playing girls sports.
By the way, not every troop allows the girls. While I’m no longer an active leader, my old troop doesn’t*. They are directed to the Girl Scouts program.
*we did for a time have an Venturing group which is co-ed. A good friend of mine and his wife gave that one a try. It never prospered and ended up cancelled. If you make it co-ed then it requires women that want to go out and carry a pack on trips sleeping in a tent in the cold and heat. There are very few of those around.
Edit: I stated that incorrectly. The girls are in separate troops, not co-ed. There is no mixture at the Boy Scout level. I think they allow the Cubs to be co-ed though. I just checked and the church that sponsors my old troop does now have a girls troop. It is entirely separate.
Where is Pinoccio?
I believe I found my favorite for Trumps VP:
https://triunetimes.org/trump-tells-lt-gen-michael-flynn-to-be-healthy-and-ready/
Perfect choice IMO. 8 more years of MAGA after Trump. I think the general just might decide to use his position as payback…
Good news day – Lt Gov Mark Robinson announces a run for Gov.
https://justthenews.com/nation/states/north-carolina-lt-governor-mark-robinson-announces-run-governor
A non-lawyer that believes in the 2nd amendment. What’s not to like?
Returned home from the coast to find a fund raising letter from Mark Robinson in the mailbox.
Sending a check today. If you’re in NC, and are able, I suggest you do the same. This state will be 100% better when we get rid of the illegitimate communist Cooper. We have the legislature and the NC Supreme court in conservative hands. Help get the executive branch there as well.
NC legislature passes bill to reign in out of control student behavior which is of course called “racist” because the black children can’t behave, or something.
