It’s tough getting old in WhiteManistan, informed the New York Times today in a story about 10 counties where only white people live in Colorado. They are fed up and want to form a new state.
Too many liberals, too many gay people, too many not-white people, too much dope smoking in the rest of Colorado. The people of “New Colorado” or, maybe “North Colorado,” feel the need to restore “liberty” so their children, who can’t stand them and are all moving away, get back the “heritage” of the old country.
The damn state even voted for Obama twice, fer cryin’ out loud! That ain’t right.
NYT:
Here in Cheyenne County, where 82 percent of people voted for Mitt Romney last year, residents say they feel as if their state changed on them. There have never been more than about 3,700 people here, and the last two decades have brought sharp population declines as children moved away … The county’s population is now 1,870 …
The kids know it’s good to put WhiteManistan in the rear view mirror, apparently.
There’s a German expression for the disturbed folk of WhiteManistan: Fremdschamen.
Essentially, it’s about experiencing embarrassment at witnessing others so acutely so but oblivious to it that, like a disease, it infects you.
And there is nothing more clueless and embarrassing than WhiteManistan’s collective nervous breakdown, from attempts to bring down the federal government to Hector Heathcote uniforms and the near constant complaints about the other people, to the angry wish to live in more pure lands.
There’s a movement in northern California just like it, where the white people want to form a new state called “Jefferson,” because of all the, you know, not-white people in the rest of the state.
They’ve been trying since 1941.

The cause of failed state government in the United States is WhiteManistan.
From a letter published in the Allentown Morning Call:
President Obama could have prevented this shutdown by demonstrating leadership qualities (which he sorely lacks) and by sitting down with the Republican leaders in Congress to try to work out a compromise. Instead, he and the Democratic leaders in the House and Senate (namely, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid), resorted to name-calling directed at the Republicans (“anarchists,” “extortionists,” etc.) rather than trying to work out a compromise …
In hindsight, the American people lost out on the opportunity to have prevented all this controversy had they elected Mitt Romney president. He would have been a uniter instead of a divider, a problem-solver instead of a problem-creator.
If only Mitt Romney, not written but still uttered — the white man — had won, the guy who implemented an equivalent of Obamacare in Massachusetts. (And in Pennsylvania, he lost, too.)
The tribe of WhiteManistan cannot abide two elections in which the majority chose that black man, Barack Obama. It bedevils them, they despise him, make no bones of it and consider everyone who voted for him a traitor and/or a parasite. And so it has steadily used weakness in the design of the US government to undermine government and stage a coup, a rebellion, which — if successful, effectively destroys his presidency.
That’s more than half of what paralyzing the government and threatening to blow the foundations is about. The undisguised malice toward the black man in the White House cannot be separated from the shut down and threats over the debt ceiling. Only terrible people overlook the animus and pretend its over philosophical differences on the role of government in providing health insurance.
And so they have made a unique civil war, one in which the armies don’t fire on each other, the bodies don’t pile up, the separation and secession isn’t geographic north and south, but still in entire states and the difference between a many-colored America and a mono-colored one where others still know their place.
Make no mistake, they were always aching for a Fort Sumter, it has been slowly coming for years. Now it’s here.
There’s no remedy for it until they are completely driven from the field. There’s no shared future American experience that includes the contributions of WhiteManistan, only the toleration of its long goodbye. They know it, too.

Big media mainstreamed Ted Nugent. And he’s only a symptom. So if the government defaults in two weeks and remains closed, a good many, not just in the GOP, brought it on by making rabid old paranoid white lunatics a common and respected American brand.
From Ted Nugent, made a celebrity on network television and in the Washington Post, today an expected advocate for shutting down the government forever, except for the military, police, prison guards and executioners:
“The 1970s Chrylser automobiles that wouldn’t run couldn’t hold a candle to the engineered obsolescence of Social Security, Medicaid, Medicare, the laughable U.S. post office, the jackboot indecency of the EPA, the ESA (this isn’t even an agency, it’s the Endangered Species Act, law), OSHA, USFW, USDA, NPS, USFS, NEA, FDA, [the] BLM … Who the hell came up with the government providing school lunches, food stamps, cellphones, rent, fuel, wars on drugs, wars on poverty, mismanaging forests, running parks … Go ahead, do us all a huge favor, and put the brakes on the America that never should have been. I watch the $6 billion school lunch program to feed the starving children go straight into the dumpster and right out to the local landfill.”
Shorter: Die! Die! Everybody but the shut-‘er-downers die! Die two or three times, especially school lunches.
No link.
He’s a sociopath, a bigot, ignorant beyond belief, a horrendous writer and public speaker, a well-paid and influential star who accurately reflects the sentiments of many.

Tom Clancy has died, astonishingly, at 66.
I was a very much younger man when I bought the first hardback edition of The Hunt for Red October from the Naval Institute Press. It quickly became a best-seller, propelled by blurb furnished by Ronald Reagan.
The rest of the story is known to everyone.
Clancy became the leading author of the techno-military thriller genre — he almost invented it single-handedly — essentially, bodice-ripper fiction for men where the romance is in the story of the military supremacy of the US, always struck low in the beginning of a usually not less then 400-page tale, then rising on the shoulders of brave and resourceful officers and enlisted men, or spies, to crush the enemy.
There were blockbuster movies, computer games, probably even a television show, an empire created.
I haven’t read any of it in decades and now might only have the Red October book, somewhere in a hidden pile.
Frankly, it was always pretty much crap but shite that was very appealing to a emotionally stunted but large young to middle-aged white male audience, jingo dudes who got erections over loving technical descriptions of advanced American weapons of war as they were in the process of destroying “the bad guys.” (The latter of which Dave Barry lampooned in an hilarious column a long time ago).
Another way of putting it: Tom Clancy was very dear to the beating heart of WhiteManistan.
I outgrew it and got rid the books, even those of the coat-tailing authors, of which there were and are still way too many.
Still respect must be paid to the achievement and regret shown over his passing too soon. Clancy’s millions of books made people happy, including me, for a bit. And just a day ago I noticed a newer title by the man in the one place where many Americans are still most likely to buy an occasional book — the grocery store.
Clancy was the original. Rest in Peace.

In honor of the despised minority who closed the US government because of their hatred for the President and the fair passage of law, a photo tribute collected from newspapers in the last few days.
Hector Heathcote rings his liberty bell a week or so before hundreds of thousands of tyrannical federal employees are sent home and the US government slowly grinds to a halt. Freedom at last.
Some of the men of the Second Revolt. God Bless America. Slight surge in sales of Hector Heathcote costumes begins.
Battle on, older white patriots and freedom fighters! Your cause has been the most noble in the land. “At the National Institutes of Health, nearly three-quarters of the staff was furloughed.” The same is happening to the Centers for Disease Control! Moochers whose jobs are just a symptom of bloated, out of control government.
Well done, men of WhiteManistan! In your tireless effort to preserve our freedoms and liberties, you made an older lady cry:
“Michael Mueller, a retired visitor from Arizona, and his wife Bea had planned their trip to New York for six months. Instead, she was left in tears at what she said should be the last thing to close.”
The bill for the 2010 elections comes due.

The pure milk of American patriotism, run out of southern California, fortunately.
A couple times a week I stand behind a woman, sometimes with a child or two, using a WIC (Women, Infants and Children supplemental food program) check at my supermarket.
A government shutdown stops them. And after about a week, unless states take local measures, there’s nothing in the pipeline.
Let’s give lots of thumbs-ups to the Tea Party/GOP for getting WIC moochers as collateral damage in effort to engineer a coup over health care and that guy in the White House they hate with every fiber of their being. Shutdown won’t get the food stamps program — drat, it may have to wait for default in mid-October — but it can still start clawing poor women and children tomorrow.

Shut down the government! Because Paul Revere, Hector Heathcote and the rest of those old founding guys knew that a life of fifes, drums, tri-corner hats, wooden teeth and typhus, anything, was better than health care for more people.
“What do you mean Hector Heathcote wasn’t a real patriot?!”

On Friday. one White House pr man compared the GOP to terrorists. The extremists immediately protested.
Later in the day, a second White House pr man called them extortionists.
Six figure explainer, pundit, and Maddow Show producer Steve Benen layed down the word, or was otherwise quoted in the Washington Post:
“As a rule, regardless of where one falls on the political divide, officials should resist the urge to compare their rivals to terrorists. I don’t care how radicalized congressional Republicans have become — they’re not al Qaeda. Period. Full stop.???
How many people will die or are dieing in slow motion because of the impositions and orders of the extremist party?
The differences between our jihadis and their’s are proximity to victim and choice of tools. How else would you describe a gang that’s pro-nationwide hunger and against healthcare for those who don’t have it?
It’s real easy to lecture on the rules of civil discourse when you’re a six or seven figure explainer. But being blunt and descriptive has appeal.
Provoke a Republican today, poke them in the eye with a linguistic pointed stick, try to make an ugly explosion, it’s what they want.
The extremist party is empowered when called terrorists by mortal enemies, which is everyone not Republican.
Since they’re authoritarian paranoids, it’s vindication. Rules of civil discourse are a club extremists find handy to beat you over the head with while they’re going Ted Nugent. Civil War 2 has been on for awhile, nothing will end it except complete ruin at the polls for one side or the other.
I have a grudging admiration for the filled-with-malice strategy of trying to engineer a coup against the elected President from the bottom even if it won’t work. If, on the odd chance that it does, they’ll have successfully changed the structure and working of the government.

So misunderstood, the neo-Confederates.
A study on my old southeastern Pennsylvania home, explanations by the indigenous, excerpted:
“I remember taking a second look and going, ‘Really?’ It was shocking,” said Bryl Villanueva, 35, of Lafayette Hill, who recently saw a rebel flag flying in Conshohocken while on the way to a friend’s house. “Maybe they’re from Alabama.”
“Me, I fly the stars and stripes,” said Dereck Banks, a self-described history buff from Clifton Heights, Delaware County.
But Banks, 55, who is black, can’t miss the Dixie flag plastered across the back window of his neighbor’s pickup truck parked at the curb. It’s also on the front license plate, with the word “Daddy.”
“It offends a lot of people. White folks, too.”
“I’m not prejudiced at all. My granddaughter is half-black,” said Copeland, who flies a flag from his home on busy Route 724 near Phoenixville. “I just love the South. If I could live there, I would.”
Copeland, however, doesn’t seem overly concerned with political correctness, as evidenced by the sign on his door that reads, in part: “Unless you are blind or cannot read this sign, you can bet your ass I am going to stomp the s— out of you if you bother me!”
“If somebody broke into your house and robbed you, and they were wearing New York Giants attire, you wouldn’t assume that there was something evil in the Giants association,” said Gene Hogan, chief of heritage operations for the Sons of Confederate Veterans. “You would say, ‘No, that was an evil person that co-opted those garments.’ Same way with the battle flag.”
“[It] represents all the good things in America,” Hogan said.
The flags were out again the next weekend at a concert headlined by Brad Paisley, and tailgaters were outraged because security was forcing them to be taken down.
“It’s not racist at all,” said Blythe, 35, a carpenter [who has a neighbor who flies the Confederate flag on his truck]. “Everybody loves each other on this block.”
I bet they love each other.
Greece has Golden Dawn, other Euro nations have their radical bigot political parties.
The US has the biggest tribal agglomeration of bigots, the neo-Confederacy, or my old WhiteManistan roots. (“It’s a brand, a symbol of oppression, violence, and … white supremacy,” one sociologist tells the Philly newspaper, in a modern version of telling a reporter how to pour piss from a shoe.)
As the mess gets worse, the country rotting from the inside out in its uniquely American corporate fascism, as animosity is fanned, still more Confederate flags.
And it’s why “Goober Peas,” an old Confederate marching song, is lampooned in WhiteManistan Vacation.
The special PARIAH cover on the matter.
