Editorial from PB special political commentator J. Edward Eastbridge

The answer to your question ‘how do liberals look in the mirror’ is quite simple, they live on the opposite side of the looking glass than us.

Allow me to explain by telling the Tale of Two Candidates:
• A billionaire real estate developer.
• A limousine leftist.

The billionaire developer is clothed in a dress shirt, jacket and suit pants in the Louisiana jungle heat and is completely at home at the back end of a box truck unloading five boxes of play-doh for kids who just lost everything.


The limousine leftist hasn’t driven herself to the grocery store, bought her own food, and carried it in to the house since the 80’s. She wouldn’t know the back of a box truck from the back of her hand. She wouldn’t know what to do with a box of play-doh if it jumped out of the truck and into her arms. She couldn’t stand up with a bag of groceries in an air conditioned building.


To these people, the limousine leftist is just like them, a real woman of the people. She loves. She cares. The real estate developer is a douchebag, money grubbing asshole.

The billionaire real estate developer was against the war in Iraq before it was cool, and never waivered.


The limousine leftist thinks she is brilliant. She voted for the war in Iraq. She changed her mind. She says that she, the brilliant woman, was played for a fool by the dumbest man to ever be President. She claims this as a qualification to be President.

These people, who hate war, love the limousine leftist. They never question her devotion to ending all violence and blood-shed. Her victimhood at the hands of the evil warmonger who deceived her into voting for war enhances their love for her. They drool on and save a seat for her at their drum circle. They actually weep and shudder thinking that billionaire developer, the man who was against war from the beginning, will burn down the world.

In 2000, the billionaire developer was giving interviews to The Advocate, a publication for the gay community. He spoke of his devotion to gay rights. Now, he wants to prevent the immigration of people from alien cultures that celebrate the murder of gays.


In 2004, the limousine leftists gave one of the most passionate and rationally secular speeches ever given on the floor of the United States Senate rejecting gay marriage. Now, she supports the idea of importing thousands of immigrants from cultures that celebrate the murder of gays.


To these people, the limousine leftist is a champion of gay rights, and the billionaire developer is a homophobic example of all that is wrong with hetero-normative culture.

The billionaire developer has hired and empowered thousands of women, giving them the opportunity to put cheddar on their tables, Coach bags on their shoulders, tile roofs on their homes, and nice cars in their garages.
The limousine leftist has accomplished little in her life independent of her primary role as the Mrs. Bill Clinton. She hitched her fortunes to a man she saw as a rising star. She accepted, stood-by, supported and enabled her husband’s abusive, manipulative, lying, cheating, debauchery. She assassinated the character and destroyed the lives of her husband’s female victims. She’s nothing more than a grotesque version of an old school desperate housewife.
These people think the limousine leftist is a champion and role model for women worldwide. The billionaire developer’s use of locker room humor makes him sexist scum to these people.

The billionaire developer has engaged in hundreds of successful business ventures and a few failed ones. Several people with whom he has done business have sought to resolve disputes with him in civil court. He has lived his life in the public eye with no alibi for any of his faults or blemishes for over 30 years.


The limousine leftist has a list of political enemies dead by suspicious circumstances, murder or suicide long enough that no one with the most rudimentary background in actuarial statistics can dismiss it as mere coincidence. To mention this in conversation exposes one to ridicule and in some circles the suspicion of insanity.


To these people, the billionaire developer represents a caricature of villainous evil that looks tame compared to the most hard-core, hell-fire and brimstone, buckle of the bible-belt, preacher’s version of Satan. The limousine leftists extols virtue. Her election promises a future of justice, righteousness, sunshine, and lollipops. Oh, if only the billionaire’s frightening minions don’t get in her way!

How do they look in the mirror? On their side of the looking glass they look beautiful to themselves.

LGBT bathroom problems

On this post you need to read then click the link, then read some more and click the link and so on.


So I saw this video:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2dBpR36VFQM


I can see his point, but as a practical matter I don't know if most people in a lot of instances would know.  For instance if one of these guys came into the bathroom with you in a restaurant, would you even think, "Hey, what's this chick doing in here?"  No, you're going, "Awesome tats." or maybe "Horrible tats."


And if most of these chicks came into the ladies restroom at the restaurant, your wife would probably not even notice.


And if you saw this guy, you'd be going, "Daaammmnnnn!"  If he came into the men's room it would be rather disruptive I would think.


I think this law is trying to combat the growing victimology movement.  Some trans person who did a bad job doesn't want to be told they really don't look at all like a man or a woman as the case may be.  Whereupon the whining starts.  Suck it up and put on your big girl (or boy) panties.  If someone notices you've done a bad job.  Get back to work.

Personally I would prefer to be alone in the restroom.  I really don't want anyone there when I'm taking the Browns to the Super Bowl.
