The Native Iowan

Weather is still happening this fine, grey, overcast, wet Sunday morning. The air is still. The deep, low roar that has been the storm brewing off shore, is gone. The tension in the air is gone. I think the storm is gone, has moved down south, is dumping heaps of rain there. It’s not over yet, for the folks south of us.

The past weathery week has meant a fair amount of reading, sitting and reading, sitting and reading and writing.

I am a bit stunned, amazed how so many of my very intelligent friends can be so blind, so pig headed, so stubborn, so stupid… We are months past the “election”, and 50 or so days into the 2nd DJT administration, and folks still bleat like sheep in a thunderstorm… still say dumbshit, meaningless nonsense, post completely wrong, false, incorrect and mindless drivel.

I reference this:

So, after a number of weeks since the election and the inauguration, we still harp on about Fox and Trump and Lies…

hmmm, Gold Fish Brain syndrome I suspect…

I suspect that it is selective memory and not forgetfulness that leads one to “not remembering’ that only 3 months ago we were being told that Biden was fine, the world was good, the border was secure and inflation wasn’t inflation. An array of talking heads all towed the DNC party line. As we watched the President of the USA dotter, and trip, and stumble, and mumble…

What lies does the above visual reference? It’s unclear, inarticulate. Designed to resonate with one that holds a negative emotion towards both Trump and Fox.

Again, my centrists position in life has me wondering what indeed is being purveyed herein? I dont get it.

Tho one dear old Trump-Derangement-challenged old friend of mine did blame the loss of the election on the fact that Americans are stupid and watch too much Fox News…

Makes me query if watching CNN, or MSNBC makes one smarter…

I have said before that I try to watch everything. I annoy everyone by switching channels a lot. Sure, Rachel Maddow is hard to take but my old stance remains… If I dont listen, how do I know what theyre saying?

I would be willing to wager my best bitch, Quel, that the person who posted the above, and the person that drew it, do not watch Fox.

So how do they know?

I know Al Sharpton is a misleading race baiter, at best, and quite an ugly, sad human, more than not. But I do listen to him. How else can I have an educated opinion per what he is saying?

Sure, Fox can be hard to take. Too much news in the form of entertainment/ comedy for my liking. A new caster that laughs and jokes, hmmm…. But CNN and MSNBC have blown their credibility by joining the DNC conspiracy to lie and dupe the electorate. For the past many years we have been knowingly misled. Knowingly told lies. Day after day after day.

Seriously, I am looking for someone/ anyone to explain to me how anyone can take what is heard on CNN and MSNBC with anything but a huge grain of salt. We know the DNC has been lying and deceiving for the past number of years. What makes them “worthy” of much attention now?

Or, is it that my dear, dear left leaning friends are seriously hampered in their ability to see fact, to see reality. Is the Trump derangement syndrome so severe?

I suspect it is.

And all this makes my simple life harder…

I simply do not understand… as above… After being lied to for years by the recent DNC driven agenda, how can anyone trust anything, anymore?

That why I read, study, listen and write, and why I am more and more of a centrist as time goes on…

My best bitch Quel:
