The Great Unmasking, Part III

Just when you think that situations could not get any more insane, the leftist progressives say "hold my light foam, half caf, organic only, fair trade only, soy milk iced latte."

I am reminded of VADM James Stockdale's stoic motto: "You must never confuse faith that you will prevail in the end - which you can never afford to lose - with the discipline to confront the most brutal facts of your current reality, whatever they might be."

The current 6 ring circus surrounding the SCOTUS nominee is an amazing in your face move by the current iteration of the followers of Marx. The contortions made by all parties involved would make a smash Cirque du Soleil show. Again, the masks are completely off. However, those being unmasked act like they are wearing an infinite stack of masks. And it is not just here in the US. This is a world-wide phenomenon. Take just a few minutes to peruse through world news websites and you will see the desperateness of statetists everywhere. They are absolutely convinced that they are on the cusp of their final victory. Yet, everywhere, there is push back. Bigly, if you will forgive the euphemism. And it is not just in the world of politics and nation states.

Masks are also being ripped off in the realm of faith as well. But not just the Catholic Church. The dalai lama admits to serious issues of felonious behavior by certain Buddhist leaders, and certain rabbis have confirmed reports of similar issues within Judaism.

Masks are being ripped off everywhere and in every walk of life.

I admit, I have been amazed by certain chess moves on the board by POTUS. I know that victory is the goal, but, like a Tom Clancy novel, 7/8th's of the story is all about the set up with the last eighth being filled with the frenetic, breathless action that sees the tying together of so many disparate stories into the fantastic, yet completely believable, conclusion. There are many of us who are stoically plowing through the story to get to the climax of it.

What if he was born, raised, lived his experienced and colored life for this exact time and this exact position of authority.

Never forget that King David of the Old Testament, described as "a man after God's own heart" would have never made it as a politician in today's culture. Not with his family problems, his infidelities, his conspiracies to commit murder, etc. Or would he? It all would have depended on if he chose to wear a mask...
