That ‘equivalency’ thing was murdered
at the Tribe of Nova music festival!
Anyone surprised? John Nichols is up this Sunday morning with a editorial bail out of too-progressive-to-fail Mark Pocan. Must rescue the Progressive Caucus Democrat representing Madison WI in the U.S. Congress because voters are beginning to notice his long history of support for Israel’s enemies.
You’ll never guess! According to the Book of Nichols, Mark Pocan is actually on the side of … PEACE! Lawn chair and Chardonnay, poetry reading on the bowling green ( 🎵 A man selling ice cream. 🎶 ) PEACE!
In its contractually obligated space in Sunday’s WI State Journal, the associate editor of The Capital Times repeats Pocan’s perfunctory tut tut of Hamas’s terrorist murder of babies, grandmothers, and unarmed festival goers. Before the period at the end of that sentence had time to dry, Pocan bleats: “the violence must end!”
Serenity Equivalency NOW!
Too bad about the dead babies. Israeli Defense Forces, Stop the Violence! It “must end!” When must you end it? NOW!
Nichols pivots to the talking points of his Democratic Socialists of America, which holds that Israel had it coming. The DSA’s Connecticut branch declared, “Yesterday, the Palestinian resistance launched an unprecedented anti-colonial struggle.” Nichols concludes by quoting a useful idiot (they confound every cause!) who asks the Israeli government to:
“Stop killing innocent people. That’s not the way that brings us peace and security to people in Israel.”
Would that John Nichols or Mark Pocan or Bernie Sanders or Ilhan Omar say the same about Hamas! If anything, that terrorist organization (officially recognized as such) vows Death to Israel! That’s what they call an existential threat.
→ Bernie “Sanders calls Israel’s siege on Gaza ‘a serious violation of international law’”
→ The original Hamas covenant: “The Day of Judgment will not come about until Muslims fight Jews [since amended to “Zionists,” meaning Israelis] and kill them.”
The Werkes hopes to avoid the sin of Pocan/Tlaib equivalence. When your enemy says he wants to kill you, it behooves one to take him at his word.
Blaska’s Bottom Line: Hamas is reaping what it sowed. The inhuman mass murderers deliberately put the Palestinians of Gaza in the cross hairs. Had they worked with Israel, the 2 million residents there would enjoy milk and honey PEACE this very day.
Platinum Subscriber BONUS Bottom Line: It is unfortunate, but the WI State Journal itself has no one with the cojones to counter defenders of the progressive Left’s depredations. Then again, Madison’s Hard Left has a way of breaking windows, setting fires, and shouting down dissenters. They are Hamas, albeit with training wheels.

Your prose is singing again: “Lawn chair and wine spritzer, poetry reading on the bowling green PEACE!”
I sense your best prose comes when you are hopping mad. Great column. Thanks for laying it out so well. I couldn’t agree more.
Let Pocan lead the peace delegation over to Hamas and see if he can negotiate a nice, civilized come-to-Jesus moment – I’m sure they would welcome him and his spouse with open arms (albeit not the corporeal kind).
It’s extremely hard to be mad at anything from here in Florida, but there’s no way to stay neutral with this craziness.
Cheers anyway!
I wonder what the Islamic extremists in Gaza would think about Pocan’s.. um.. sexual orientation?
what exactly are you saying cooter?
Marc is gay. I’m not saying it, he is, at the several functions I’ve been at where I met his partner. I could care less, personally. But I doubt Islamic extremists would. That’s what I’m saying. Keep up, Dick.
well then post it up front pussyooter. we all know he is gay. stop being a dick and post what you mean; otherwords’ stop being a crotch.
Kooter; you saying the Islamic extremists in Gaza are NOT ‘Queens fans?
Because The Gotch sure is a ‘Queens fan!
Especially after, despite being ONE of the worst teams in the NFL, they b!tchslapped the Bi-Polar bares (THE_Worst_Team_In_The_NFL!) 19-12…AT Soldier Field!

that’s all you got? A football game when the middle east is at war. go to bed crotch.
G.B. sucks and so do the Badgers.
Chicago: Home of broad shoulders and narrow trophy cases. 10 division championships since 1985 to Green Bay’s 16. One in the last 15 years. No Lombardi trophies since 1985. Got embarrassed on their own field by the Packers when the Halas trophy was on the line while Smokin’ Jay Cutler pissed his diapers on the sideline. Packers have beaten the Malört out of the Bears almost incessantly since Favre was under center and did it again last meeting. They have hit rock bottom and started to dig.
Heh! The Gotch couldn’t have said it better himself, MTR; it takes a special kinda STOOPID to be a bares fan!
After Further Review, The bares STILL SUCK!
The Gotch
DUH Bi-Polar bares Have_Hit_ROCK_BOTTOM!
DUH midgets of the midway are The WORST FRANCHISE In Football

I wonder what the people supporting Hamas (Palestinians) would say if they were alive when Pearl Harbor was bombed? I don’t remember what they were saying after 9/11. Maybe it is different because the two US attacks were not as personal as the Israeli attack was. I’m afraid of with our open southern border we could be next.
So your hero Donny T said that Hezbollah is “very smart.” Are you on donny’s side or not? The gop is a mess. The Dem’s are offering a lifeline. All they need is 5 repuks to join Jeffries and we have a speaker. Once that happens he can have Tubberville tossed in jail for treason.
Says the man who used to brag about using his real name.
“Had they worked with Israel, the 2 million residents there would enjoy milk and honey PEACE this very day.”
Wow, stupider and stupider.

That’s right folks don’t touch that dial…today’s 2 minutes of HATE is brought to you by:
HAMAS!
What’s not to hate in this organization dedicated to the elimination of Zionists, willing to sacrifice their own people in the cause, kill innocent children, grandmothers and people who stand for truth, justice and freedom!
PS – And feel free to piss all over anyone who isn’t standing with you! Just for fun, throw in some false equivalencies too.
“…attacks against civilian infrastructure are war crimes. Cutting off men, women and children of water, heat and electricity…these are acts of pure terror.”
Ursula van der Leyen, EU President.
The first ellipsis hides ‘Russian’, which is who she was referring to.
So is it pure terror, or not? Or does it depends on who’s doing it and who’s receiving it?
Worse than Jan. 6, 9/11, Pearl Harbor, and the War of 1812 put together!!!
