The only decent new movie in theaters today is a Bill Murray flick–and even that seems like a kinda sort rip-off of Bad Santa. What really galls me is the new anti-American Brad Sh-tt movie.

* “Fury“: More like, Hating Private Ryan. Or Defaming Private Ryan. If you go see this movie, the only Fury here is what you should be feeling toward the disgustingly anti-American filmmakers and actors who made this absolute garbage. This movie is extremely anti-American and makes our troops look like they were murderers, rapists, and thugs, as well as hypocritical religious Christian zealots. It made me very angry to watch this. America had the moral high ground in World War II. Our fighting men were good, and they were moral. But you’d hardly know it watching this crap. Yes, I’m sure there were a few bad apples, as there are everywhere, but overall and in the vast majority, we were–we ARE–the good guys, absolutely the opposite of what this absolutely sh-tty movie shows us.

In this movie, Brad Pitt (a/k/a Mr. Palestina Jolie) plays the commander of a tank unit, and he forces an innocent, naive typist (Logan Lerman) newly assigned to his tank to murder a German soldier who has already surrendered. Then, he forces the innocent soldier to rape a German girl, saying, “if you don’t take her into that bedroom, I will.” Other soldiers rape German women and take German loot. Then, they take the eggs some German women are about to eat, and they lick them all over. The Nazis were horrible, terrible scum. But you’d hardly know it watching this movie. In fact, the movie’s last scene, which takes up about a third of the movie, should be a scene in which you’d root for the American tank crew, fighting the Nazis with everything they’ve got left. But you’re hard-pressed to root for these scumbags you’ve seen behave so horribly. Read the rest of this entry »

I’d written most of these and had them set to go up while I was away for the first half of the Jewish holiday last Friday, but alas it didn’t post, despite my scheduling it. Sorry about that, but you didn’t miss much. Not sure what happened, but we think we fixed it. Because they didn’t go up in time, I went to see “Addicted” after the first part of the holiday ended and added that review here. I think we’ve fixed the glitch, and, hopefully, all of my reviews go up as scheduled today (Friday), as I’m especially itching to tell you my reaction to “Fury.” So here’s what I saw last week (my reviews for today’s new movies coming up today in a separate post):

* “The Green Prince“: I warned you, a few years ago, to ignore the fawning over Mosab Hassan Yousef a/k/a “Son of HAMAS,” as he was not “pro-Israel” as many eager gushers without a clue proclaimed. As I told you, Yousef’s handlers are the openly anti-Israel, pro-Palestinian Christian activist Ron Brackin (who wrote Yousef’s book and did all the PR for it) and disgraced and fired former Shin Bet (Israel’s version of the FBI) agent, Gonen Ben Yitzhak, now a pro-Obama, far-leftist, “peace” activist. Well, this long, slow, mostly boring “documentary” by leftist Israeli filmmaker Nadav Schirman, confirms some of what I’ve warned you about. In the end, this is yet another anti-Israel screed on film, parading to be about undercover espionage and double agents. The movie ends with Yousef crying and whining against Israel.

I am away (and have been since Wednesday at sundown) for the last of the Jewish holidays until Passover (while Chanukah is upcoming, I don’t take off for that, as it is not a major Jewish holiday). The holidays which began Wednesday night–Shemini Atzeret (which means the “8th Day of the Assembly”) and Simchat Torah (which means “Happiness for the–-or of the–-Torah”)–always come right after the Jewish holiday of Sukkot), and they end tonight, when the Jewish Sabbath begins. So I’ve been offline and wrote this ahead of time, as well as my movie reviews, which are scheduled to hopefully go up later today. My reviews scheduled for last Friday didn’t go up because of a technical glitch (sorry to those of you who complained), so hopefully they post later today, along with my new reviews of movies coming out today.

Stay tuned. And thanks for coming back. Sorry for my absence. Read the rest of this entry »

Barack Obama’s Department of Homeland Security apparently believes the most pressing security issue facing the “Homeland” is “climate change.” That’s why, last week, the agency sent federal law enforcement agents the e-mail message, below. One of my agent friends sent me a copy of the absurd message.

My agent friend writes:

Hey Debbie,

Just thought you might find this funny. While the world is going to sh*t with Ebola & ISIS, my agency is more concerned with my greenhouse gas emissions. Nero truly is fiddling while Rome is burning . . . or is it the Captain of the Titanic rearranging the deck chairs as she sinks? Read the rest of this entry »

Remember the 1980s when Bob Seger’s songs were the anthems of working-class Reagan Democrats with good values? Those days are over. You can now add Seger to the list of hypocritical global warming pimps and anti-gun nuts.

Above is an aerial view of Seger’s multi-million-dollar, 30,000-square-foot mansion on LaPlaya Lane in Michigan’s wealthiest city (by average income), Orchard Lake Village, Michigan. (I’m very familiar with Orchard Lake because when I ran for the Michigan House of Representatives, I campaigned in and won the city.) But don’t let the facts that Seger owns many cars, made millions off of licensing his songs for Chevy truck commercials, and has a carbon footprint as big as Al Gore’s get in the way of Seger’s new desperate, politically-correct attempt to stay relevant. At age 70, his latest–and probably his last–album, out Tuesday, is full of anti-gun and global warming pimpitude. Apparently, this formerly patriotic songman has spent too many “Hollywood Nights.”

Now that Seger is old and out of the car commercial biz, he apparently feels the only way to get attention is to sing songs like “The Devil’s Right Hand,” an anti-gun song, and climate-change lecture ditties on his new album, “Ride Out.” My friend, Brian McCollum, the Detroit Free Pressistan’s music critic, interviewed Seger, and the cryptkeeperish rocker wanted to make sure everyone knows about his hypocritical new politics and the message he wants to send in his new muzak offerings:

“When you’re my age, you’re very, very aware of your mortality,” says Seger, who will turn 70 in May. “You start thinking, ‘I’ve got to speak up before it’s too late and I can’t even get a record deal anymore.'” . . . Environmental matters dominate several new songs, most notably “It’s Your World” (“Say a prayer for the victims of extinction,” he sings. “Say another for the redwood trees”). It’s an ominous-toned take on climate change that Seger knows could prove divisive among fans. Here, after all, is one of the Industrial Belt’s most prominent musicians going green. He says his management team “is petrified of it.” Read the rest of this entry »

Conservative Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito believes that not only should Muslims be allowed to grow beards in prison, but that jail guards should be required to “comb through them” if they are concerned about security. HUH? When even Alito subscribes to this absurdity, you know we’ve lost the Court–and America–irreparably. And that’s exactly the situation in the case of Gregory Holt a/k/a Abdul Maalik Muhammad, a convert to Islam who trained in Yemeni terrorist camps, who is in prison for life.

Several months ago, I warned conservatives not to cheer the Supreme Court decision on the Hobby Lobby, contraception, and ObamaCare. I said it would be used in favor of Muslims to our detriment. And I was right. Holt a/k/a Muhammad used the language of the decision and its expansion of the Religious Freedom Restoration Act to his advantage at the U.S. Supreme Court, this week. And ALL of the Justices seemed to be on his side, so I predict they will be unanimous in allowing this dangerous cretin to grow his beard in prison and hide who-knows-what in it.

Yes, this Muslim prisoner’s beard is only a half-inch in length. But tomorrow, another Muslim will argue for an inch in length or three-quarters of an inch, long enough in which to hide a razor blade. In fact, a blade can be fashioned that is less than half an inch.

And what does Justice Alito say about that? Well, he’s got a “fabulous” solution: prison guards will have to comb through the beards to find out if there is anything in them. He says that the prisons can force the inmates to do the combing, but you know they won’t be thorough, just like we know O.J. Simpson faked that the gloves didn’t fit. So, the guards will end up being the ones doing the combing . . . if they want the prisons to remain secure. Yeah, that’s the ticket: force guards to become at once cosmetology school interns and put themselves in unnecessary proximity to dangerous Muslim prisoners in the process.

The justices turned to the question of whether Muslim prisoner Gregory Holt’s half-inch beard could threaten the security of the Arkansas prison system. No, most of the justices appeared to conclude — but they worried that the next cases might involve longer beards or other religious demands, with no end in sight. At what point, several of them said, should a state’s security interests surmount a prisoner’s religious rights? . . . Read the rest of this entry »

Stephen Collins’ acting career may be over, but now he can start a religion. A child molester is worshiped by billions. And if you dare talk about him, you could face death.

Follow Me On Twitter . . .

The whole pop culture world is abuzz over an audio tape released by TMZ in which Collins allegedly admits to a therapist that he exposed himself, molested young girls, and had them touch his penis. But I don’t understand why America is so intolerant of this pedophilia. After all, weren’t we told we are not allowed to “judge” a religion of 1.8 billion followers, Islam, founded by a violent guy who, at age 50, took a six-year-old and had sex with her just a few years later? (They argue that Mohammed didn’t have sex with Aisha until she was age nine, which makes that just soooo much more appropriate, right?) I mean, you can’t even draw cartoons about that child molester and live to tell about it.

I think it’s time for Collins to make a career shift . . . or convert to the Religion of Peace, Bacha Bazi Boys, and Child Brides. Read the rest of this entry »

Tonight at sundown, the Jewish holiday of Sukkot begins (and ends next week–it lasts seven days, and then there are a couple of one-day holidays tacked on after the end). I’ll be posting one or two more things tonight, and I have several newsworthy things I’ve written in advance, which will be posted during my absence on Thursday and Friday. Per usual, it’s stuff you won’t read anywhere else, including my movie reviews (“The Judge,” “The Green Prince,” etc.). So stay tuned.

To my Jewish friends and readers, I wish you a “Chag Sukkot Kasher v’Sameach”–a Kosher and Happy Sukkot Holiday. For my gentile readers, here’s an explanation of the holiday:

Sukkot is one of my favorite Jewish holidays because it’s a cool fall, outdoorsy holiday. Here’s some information about Sukkot, from a previous post:

Sukkot (also called Sukkos, Succos, or Succot) is called Tabernacles in English. It is one of the three Jewish harvest festival holidays, and we commemorate the Jews’ temporary existence (and temporary dwellings), while wandering in the Sinai desert [and subject to the will of G-d and the weather conditions imposed by Him].

To do so, Jews build temporary huts (called “Sukkot” for plural) outside their homes. They decorate the Sukkah (singular of the word) and eat all meals there during the holiday. (My father used to sleep in it, too, occasionally. Said it was very refreshing.) It is very fun for kids because they help decorate the sukkah, and also visit other Sukkot in the neighborhood, eating candy and other treats there, sort of like on Halloween (but no tricks or treats, and it’s way more spiritual). My late father used to make his special drink for visiting kids, Vernor’s Ginger Ale, mixed with powdered Nestle’s quick and a generous splash of Rich’s Coffee Rich (sometimes he substituted Faygo Rock & Rye soda (we call it “pop” in Michigan) for the ginger ale).

So, now, the FBI is asking your help in identifying the American-sounding ISIS beheader in videos. You know why this is happening, don’t you? The agency’s got nothing. They know nothing. They are clueless. Just as they were with the Unabomber’s identity. That’s why I and many others call them Famous But Incompetent. If the shoe fits . . . .

In fact, the Unabomber murders and acts of terrorism are exactly like the situation here: an embarrassing expose on how useless, and incompetent the FBI is. The only reason we know today that the Unabomber is Ted Kaczynski is that his brother turned him in for the reward money. Otherwise, the Unabomber, today, would continue his murderous, enviro-crazy acts of terrorism. Yet, the FBI considers “identifying” the Unabomber as one of its great achievements in the last 100 years of its existence, and put items from the “investigation” in its museum and exhibits elsewhere.

Do you really think some Muslim terrorist’s family is going to turn him in to the FBI for $10,000? Think again. (Even Ted Kaczynski’s bro got more.) They support what he did and what he does. They are committed Muslims. That’s what they do. They won’t turn him in.

And don’t look to the FBI’s recent “gets” of an upstate New York convenience store Muslim and a Chicago Muslim teen as any sign of achievement or law enforcement glory. Both of those suspects who sought to join ISIS were idiots who were set up by FBI informants. They were entrapped (though legally so), lured into it because they had the America-hating Islamic mind to do so. (The FBI does this because it wants to stand on the “lone wolves” BS theory on Islamic terrorists and avoid looking into the wolf pack and its leaders in mosques and Islamic schools and institutions all over America.) The real ISIS terrorists in and from America are not that stupid, and they go about their jihad business undetected until it’s too late. Read the rest of this entry »

I don’t like when people I barely know try to hug me instead of a handshake. It violates my space and it’s creepy to me, but I know that most of them mean no harm. I certainly wouldn’t file a police report over it. But that’s what happened to Fred Civis. And I feel for the guy. He’s a cashier at a grocery store who has worked there for 39 years. Or was. He was fired AND charged with assault and battery for hugging a customer.

I agree with the choice to fire him, although I feel for anyone who loses his/her job, especially a cashier for 39 years who is age 57 and is faced with a tough situation economically. But he was warned several times by the employer not to hug customers, and he persisted. This is bad for business. On the other hand, it is a small town area where everyone knows everyone, so perhaps he felt too comfortably familiar with customers. Still, the man should not be prosecuted for assault and battery. Really? From a hug?

In August, supermarket clerk Fred Civis was arrested and fired from his job of 39 years after a customer he hugged reported him to the store and police. Many in town have rallied behind the popular cashier, launching a boycott that has slowed business at Plumb’s Valu-Rite Foods. . . . Read the rest of this entry »
