Virtue Signaling

I hesitate to point this out, in the midst of our current racial hysteria, that the “noose” that was found on the only black NASCAR driver, Bubba Wallace’s garage stall at the Taladega Speedway over last weekend was nothing more than a garage door pull-down rope ... the same as was found on all the other garage stalls for the white drivers ... see: Conservative Treehouse Entry.

The unanimous hand-wringing response to this obvious overblown normality seems like nothing more than a opportunity to virtue signal by the other NASCAR drivers ... since they must all realize the actuality of this event.

In other words, to have pointed out the truth, like above, would have labeled one a “racist” by much of our manic media. So what does one do?

Understandably, just go along to get along. Kinda like the passive crowd standing around, watching the Salem witches being burned at the stake.

Afterward: Pity the poor maintenance person who put up that particular garage door pull-down ... maybe even years ago.

Dope

It’s fortuitous that many states have now legalized marijuana because our nation is now on a drug jag that is bound to destroy our psyche and our future.  Last night the House passed the Senate’s “solution” to our fiscal-cliff crisis which adds $3.9 trillion more to our already-crushing national debt of $16.4 trillion (see: The Hill Story) … and in the process gives additional tax breaks to Hollywood and NASCAR … and extends unemployment insurance for another 12 months.  

Yes, President Obama looks like a hero to the takers in this country in that he tucked it to the millionaires and billionaires (and the Republicans) … but, in truth, he really punished very few people (except the Republican party) since this “compromise” is allowing the carried-interest tax break to survive for hedge-fund managers … and Warren Buffet.

But since, to the majority of Americans, perception is reality, the stock market is poised to soar … and our former dope-smoking jamoke, Barack Obama, is soaring back to Hawaii to finish his vacation on a high.  I think maybe I might just be tempted to take a toke myself … since this could be the only way I can alleviate the crushing angst I now feel for our country’s future.
