Media: Something's are obvious to the naked eye

 They never get how it looks.

In a few hours on CBS MORNINGS, for example, the very femme Jason Aldean will show up to insist that there was nothing racist about his video "Try That In A Small Town."  Fat again and wearing more jewelry than Liberace could get away, the country's candy ass bully lies and evades.  It's a taped segment and maybe watch to figure out whether Miss Jason needs to wash his face or if he mistook lip gloss for foundation.

 

But your reaction should be mainly to wonder how someone so butt ugly, so overweight, so fey and so bejeweled thinks he comes off manly?

 

The Fat Princess will lie that the song is about protecting your family and your friends. We long ago pointed out that he doesn't write his own songs.  Apparently, Jason also gets confused when singing.  Words are hard for a prissy like Aldean.  

 

The song is about vigilantism. 

And not like some Jean-Claude Van Damme badly filmed 80s movie where he's playing a gay karate character or protecting some little kid from a bad guy.  No, this is full on grab-the-torches-town-mob nonsense.  And that never gets confronted --  not on CBS, not ever. 

 

He wants you to know that the video wasn't racist.  This was film of things that actually happened!  Then why, after people spoke out against the video, did he secretly edit out some footage? 

 

The song and the video combined to glorify vigilantism and did so with the Columbia, Tennessee court house, the Maury County Courthouse in Columbia, Tennessee, on camera.  You know that right?  Where they hanged Henry Choate?  A vigilante mob strung up a noose and hanged an African-American teenager.  Hanged?  No, lynched.   

That's what mobs did . . . in  a small town.  They lynched.

And that's what the song and the video glorify.

Maybe if  Jason spent less time picking out the rings for his fingers and more time learning history and, yes, English (a lyric?  that would be the words to a song saying "there's not a lyric in the song" is what stupid, uneducated people say, it's "there's not a line in the song") he'd know that.

He sang someone else's song -- because he can't write a hit song by himself -- and it glorified violence and was the cry of the town bully so fat ass got a hit single for a moment.  Now he can return to the failed career and wife number two while pretending he's righteous and small-town proud.

He's just another idiot who needs to be reminded to wash his in the shower and that's the only thing that CBS MORNINGS makes clear.

Things that are fairly clear already?  That THE VANGUARD (a) misses a great deal and (b) lacks diversity.

Yes, we've noted that before but the point really got driven home last week when they were calling out Ana Kasparian for taking to a right-wing outlet.  They called her out for a number of things including transphobia.  We kept waiting for them to make another point about her appearance.  

They never got to it.

They went on about her attempts to appease the right-wing and court them (true), about how a "birthing person" was not the same as the n-word (true) despite Ana attempting to insist that they were, that the doctor who referred to her that way was trying to be inclusive (true) and that she overreacted (so true) and many more points.

Here's what that missed that was so obvious if you didn't emerge from the dealership with the Male Norm as your custom factory standard.

Four.

Four men.

She was on a show with four men (all right wingers). 

Huh?

In 2023, what kind of a 'feminist' (Ana still tries to bill herself as that) would go on a program with four male hosts?

That's insane.  

No feminist is going to go on a program like that.  An attention-seeker might, a Queen Bee might, but in 2023, no feminist is going on a program like that.

Ana's not a feminist.  That's not a minor point as she grows increasingly comfortable sporting her right-wing nature in public.

The primary host of the podcast she appeared on is Patrick Bet-David who also enjoys talking with Jordan Peterson, Andrew Tate and Bully Boy Bush.  That's not someone a feminist ever wants to speak with.  Co-hosts include Jedediah Bila and Vincent Oshana.  The fourth?  We're not naming the podcast because there's no reason to -- it's gruesome and we don't need to promote it.  Look up the fourth host yourself.

In the interview, Ana felt the need to attack Gavin Newsom, governor of California.  He's not right-wing enough for her.  "He's in China because he already thinks of himself as president," Ana hissed while sporting the worst blond haired bleach job since Piper Perabo on COVERT AFFAIRS.  

THE VANGUARD boys Gavin and Zac rightly called her out for being an apologist for Armenian genocide denier Cenk Uygur.  

Which brings up Cenk himself.

Talk about things that are obvious, that flash in the pan has been fading for some time.  Mainly because he pretends to be of the left but his right-wing roots continue to show.  That's what destroyed his Congressional campaign.  He started Justice Democrats at the start of 2017 -- a co-founder in fact. By the end of the same year, he was forced out.  Why?  His past writing.  Leadership at Justice Democrats -- again, the organization he co-founded -- declared it to be "sexist and racist."    He was a 'bro,' you understand.

That should have really been the end of it.  Why wasn't it?

Because he honestly thought now was the perfect time to run for Congress.  He had the support of Senator Bernie Sanders.  Initially.  But that past writing . . .  He lost the special primary (March 3, 2020) and the Democratic Party primary the following November.  A two-time loser.

Somewhere in his clouded and deluded head, even he must have heard Stevie Nicks singing, "Will you ever win?  Will you ever win?"

But he tried to power through reality.

Big boned or just fat, Cenk doesn't have that kind of strength.  Despite this reality, last month, he insisted that US President Joe Biden needed to face a primary challenged and should not run for re-election.  This month, October 11th, Cenk insisted he was running for the Democratic Party's presidential nomination.  He then attempted to file to be on the ballot in Nevada.

That went about as well as anyone could have predicted it would.  Sean Golonka (NEVADA INDEPENDENT) reports:

 

Progressive political commentator Cenk Uygur, a naturalized U.S. citizen born in Turkey, attempted to file for Nevada’s Democratic presidential primary using an altered form that crossed out the words “natural born” before “citizen” — a change that caused state officials to reject his application.

Uygur’s intention to challenge President Joe Biden for the Democratic nomination was first reported by reporter Ben Jacobs last week. Semafor's David Weigel reported at the time that the founder and host of progressive news and commentary program “The Young Turks” was preparing “to file for the 2024 Nevada primary.” 

As of the close of candidate filing on Monday, Biden will face off against self-help author Marianne Williamson and 12 other largely unknown candidates in the state’s February presidential primary.

Uygur, who immigrated from Turkey to the U.S. in 1978, has said he believes the Constitution’s requirements to qualify for the presidency — that a person be a “natural born Citizen” — would not disqualify him from running. He said he believed the case would end up being decided by the U.S. Supreme Court.

Yes, he is that self-important.  He thinks he can change the Constitution.  We are talking Article II of The Constitution -- that's where the requirements are outlined.  

The Supreme Court is currently a right-wing Court and the mantra that group repeats is, "Framer's intent. Framer's intent."

The Framer's intent has always been clear on this issue: You must be an American citizen by birth. 

The late US Senator John McCain was born to two American citizens making him a natural born American citizen in the minds of most.  However, his father was stationed in Panama and that's where John was born.  To make sure there was no problem with his running for president in 2008, the Senate passed a resolution:

110th CONGRESS

2d Session

S. RES. 511

IN THE SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES

April 10, 2008

Mrs. McCaskill (for herself, Mr. Leahy, Mr. Obama, Mr. Coburn, Mrs. Clinton, and Mr. Webb) submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary

April 24, 2008

Reported by Mr. Leahy, without amendment

April 30, 2008

Considered and agreed to

RESOLUTION

Recognizing that John Sidney McCain, III, is a natural born citizen.

Whereas the Constitution of the United States requires that, to be eligible for the Office of the President, a person must be a natural born Citizen of the United States;

Whereas the term natural born Citizen, as that term appears in Article II, Section 1, is not defined in the Constitution of the United States;

Whereas there is no evidence of the intention of the Framers or any Congress to limit the constitutional rights of children born to Americans serving in the military nor to prevent those children from serving as their country’s President;

Whereas such limitations would be inconsistent with the purpose and intent of the natural born Citizen clause of the Constitution of the United States, as evidenced by the First Congress's own statute defining the term natural born Citizen;

Whereas the well-being of all citizens of the United States is preserved and enhanced by the men and women who are assigned to serve our country outside of our national borders;

Whereas previous presidential candidates were born outside of the United States of America and were understood to be eligible to be President; and

Whereas John Sidney McCain, III, was born to American citizens on an American military base in the Panama Canal Zone in 1936: Now, therefore, be it

That John Sidney McCain, III, is a natural born Citizen under Article II, Section 1, of the Constitution of the United States.

A resolution.  Without even that, Cenk believes he can run.  Or waste everyone's time with his attempts to run.  The vanity wafting off him may be greater than the stink wafting out his butt crack and who would have ever thought that possible?

Joe Biden beat Donald Trump in 2020.  Even Cenk should be aware of that unless he's an election denier.  So his sudden concern that Joe can't this year is rather strange.  Especially since Donald Trump is also going to be four years older and Cenk's positive that Donald will be the nominee.  Donald will be 78 in November 2024 (when the election is held). Joe Biden will be 81.  That's a three year difference.  

If Donald's the nominee and, unlike Cenk, we're not sure he will be.  We're not even sure Joe will be the nominee.  But we are sure that someone who denies the Armenian genocide, whose program title celebrates the Armenian genocides, who last two much smaller elections already due to his racist and sexist remarks and is not a natural born US citizen will not be the nominee. 

He can, however, obviously use this campaign to trash Joe Biden -- can, and obviously, will.
