#1 "No! No! No!" whined little Richard, as he stamped his tiny feet in impotent rage. "He didn't win! He doesn't have a mandate! He's stupid! I'm smarter than he is! I write for the Washington Post and he doesn't! Notice me, damn you, notice me! . . . ."

#5 Alchemy DOES exist. We transmute tons of metal every year, and have been doing it in quantity for 60 years now.

Gold generally isn't worth transmuting, though.

#6 I don't understand what you mean, Dishman. Unless you are referring to turning steel into tin cans and tractors and cars, and silicon into computers.

Fred -- glorious!

#7 This is the new "narrative": Bush is an unpopular, incompetent president who somehow got lucky and won the presidential race. Williams and Russert were pushing it on NBC before the inauguration this morning with the added caveat that the Democrats need to stop nominating northeasterners (like Kerry, demographics ya know). Man, these guys are pathetic. The slick, post modern BS is getting weaker by the day.

#8 TW
Dishman may be referring to the transmutation of uranium into plutonium. We now know that plutonium does occur in nature, but our entire stock was produced by transmutation in nuclear reactors. This is true transmutation in the alchemical sense, the conversion of one element into another.

#9 Of course, the institutional media culture practices a different kind of alchemy. Their shamans, typified by Cohen, turn common neuroses into power, and horse manure into gold.

#10 Aye, AC understood. Sorry 'bout being excessively obscure.

#11 11A5S - Interesting. I've stopped surfing the talking head shows of the LLL, but that certainly echoes much of the print media delusions I've seen.

But one thing brought me up short... To WIN by 4 MILLION votes, which I would guess is more than or near the total cast for a winning candidate in most European elections, and call it "somehow got lucky" is about as deluded as I've ever heard, lol!

I will acquire tolerance for the morons - as soon as they begin to show it for the democratic process and those who differ with their views. I am particularly intolerant of fascists. I guess we'll soon see, but if this shit doesn't wane, it will get very ugly. The Dhimmicraps in Congress seem determined to take us down that path.

#12 I didn't have anything else to do this am, PD

9-11 awakened me to a lot. As you point out, there are all these anti-democratic threads out there. Facism, Leninism, po-mo crapola. It seems like everytime we chop one thread off, they go through some sort of weird recombination to form some new evil. Now we're fighting the Islamists and this queer "Western Civilization Death Wish" (WCDW) that's causing Europe and Japan to breed themselves out of existence and is trying to take root here.

The donks have pretty much been infiltrated by the post modernists and the WCDW crowd. They they really believe the post-modern crap, that if they control the narrative, they can gain power. Of course that shows how damn stupid they are since po mo theory states the opposite: he who holds power controls the narrative. But then as we've established here, liberals aren't exactly big on logic.

Take care of yourself...

#13 WCDW - Melike! Accurate, clean, economical. That's a keeper - I hope you don't mind if I plagiarize it, lol!

A quibble... With the MSM being part (or as I said on another thread today [from memory]: "a wholly owned pocket of pus") of the WCDW tumor, I'd say they do control the old comm channels. That Bush, et al, don't use their power to prevent this is an amazing aspect of our system - which gives me immense pride. Re: The old -- I cannot express how grateful I am for the Internet and for Rantburg - and the lesser sites like The Puppy Blender - without them, I'd still be buying some asshole like Crankcase saying, "And that's the way it is..." without a clue.

Whew! We be very lucky, bro!
