Look, Boss, The Balloon, The Balloon and Other Democrat Buffoonery

To even the most casu­al observ­er, this busi­ness about a Chi­nese bal­loon over­fly­ing the USA with its array of mil­i­tary data col­lect­ing anten­na trans­mit­ting full time to CPP satel­lites and doing noth­ing about it, is so shock­ing­ly laugh­able that one must won­der how Sat­ur­day Night Live will han­dle it. Appar­ent­ly, Biden is cred­it­ed with order­ing the thing shot down but we cant be sure of that. We know, though that some Pen­ta­gon sophist coun­tered Biden’s order to wait until it cleared the Car­oli­na coast for the pro­tec­tion and safe­ty of the Amer­i­can peo­ple lest the debris should plop onto some­bodys head. Inad­ver­tent­ly or not, expos­ing gov­ern­ment stu­pid­i­ty to the sun­shine of com­mon sense, ie: the fail­ure pub­licly to make a deci­sion about what to do about that damn bal­loon only con­tributes fur­ther to the Amer­i­cans loss of con­fi­dence in our fed­er­al gov­ern­ments abil­i­ty to pro­tect us, this time the Dept. of Defense, led by a retired affir­ma­tive action gen­er­al. They per­form like a Max Sen­nett com­e­dy rou­tine of wacky police­men chas­ing a Char­lie Chap­lin vil­lain.

Recall, a cou­ple decades ago under Oba­mas watch, the Chi­nese PLA forced down a US Navy spy plane over inter­na­tion­al waters, interned the crew and took that plane apart piece by piece and were wor­ried the Chi­nese might be offend­ed if we shot down their bal­loon? There should have been a stand­ing irre­versible order to the planes crew to destroy the air­craft and all its equip­ment as soon as the crew exit­ed. It was equipped to do so but it was­nt! Also, Oba­ma allowed the Ira­ni­ans to cap­ture one of our drones that should have been destroyed remote­ly even before it land­ed but, no, Oba­ma was an Iran­ian lover. The tech­nol­o­gy gleaned from that drone is now being deliv­ered to Rus­sia as weapons to attack Ukrain­ian cities.

But, back to Joe’s bal­loon! Joe could not dis­ap­point his Chi­nese han­dlers because, all denials to the con­trary, Joe and his fam­i­ly are in fact, unreg­is­tered, high­ly paid agents of a for­eign pow­er (or more) and that sim­ply would­nt do! DoDs excus­es, jus­ti­fi­ca­tions and expla­na­tions for their con­fu­sion over that bal­loon fol­lows the Demo­c­rat mot­to: deny every­thing, admit noth­ing and blame some­body else. They havent tried to blame Trump yet but we wait.

About that bal­loon, Chi­na has respond­ed claim­ing it reserved the right to “take fur­ther actions. They crit­i­cized us for “an obvi­ous over­re­ac­tion and a seri­ous vio­la­tion of inter­na­tion­al prac­tice. Chi­na’s Min­istry of For­eign Affairs said “Chi­na will res­olute­ly uphold the rel­e­vant com­pa­ny’s legit­i­mate rights and inter­ests, and at the same time reserv­ing the right to take fur­ther actions in response. Boy, thats a lot of saber rat­tling over some­thing short of a par­ty bal­loon.

So, Lets see, tit for tat: Two decades ago, when Chi­na had an air­plane, it got a ful­ly equipped US Navy spy plane. Today, we got a bal­loon? Chi­na infect­ed the world (and them­selves) with a dead­ly virus and we react­ed as expect­ed, with con­fu­sion, free­dom steal­ing man­dates and tyran­ny. I won­der if we can maybe cap­ture a Chi­nese sub­ma­rine and dis­man­tle it with­out fear of dam­ag­ing our rela­tions with the CCP? Naw, the chances are bet­ter they will cap­ture one of ours and dis­man­tle it instead if we havent already giv­en one to em already. It was Bill Clin­ton, remem­ber, who gave, repeat: gave, Chi­na the Hugh­es Air­craft Com­pa­nys inter­con­ti­nen­tal rock­et guid­ance sys­tem. So now chi­na is a world nuclear and Bio tech pow­er threat­en­ing to take fur­ther action, and were wor­ried about how to deal with a damn bal­loon. But, they must put on a pub­lic front, see what we did and will doubt­less award the pilot of the F‑22 rap­tor who hero­ical­ly attacked the offend­ing bal­loon a DFC medal.

Amer­i­ca is in the hands of com­plete nin­com­poops includ­ing the GOP whos lead­er­ship is still toy­ing with the neo­cons of past decades who are as intent on return­ing Amer­i­ca to the war mon­ger­ing coun­try they so loved ded­i­cat­ed to sav­ing the world for democ­ra­cy, as the Democ­rats are of mak­ing Amer­i­ca a social­ist utopia of oppres­sion and impov­er­ish­ment. The fric­tion they are cre­at­ing is going to start a con­fla­gra­tion they might not be able to stop.

Remem­ber, free­dom is the goal, the Con­sti­tu­tion is the way. Now, go get em! (05Feb23).
