The Redgrave Dynasty and Perverted Politics
Just a year after Natasha Richardson, daughter of Vanessa Redgrave, met her untimely death in Quebec, Britain’s Redgrave clan gathered together once again to mourn the passing of Lynn Redgrave, the homely antiheroine of “Georgy Girl,” (1966).
F.Scott Fitzgerald famously, supposedly, once commented to Ernest Hemingway that “the rich are different from the rest of us” to which Hemingway famously and supposedly retorted, “Yes, they have more money.”
No matter the accuracy of that exchange, Fitzgerald was correct if he really said the rich are different and not just because they have more money and the same can be said of the semi-rich elite class who are different mainly because they can be. Think Queen Elizabeth II making her first trip to Ireland and failing to abjectly apologize for the atrocities England visited for centuries on the Irish people and the IMF’s Dominique Straus-Kahn visiting New York and raping a chambermaid, allegedly.
The Redgraves, Britain’s answer to America’s Barrymores, are a case in point, an acting dynasty who make and live by their own rules. If Brit author Tim Adler can be believed, the whole family are a sick, perverted, not to mention a hypocritical leftist bunch, although “hypocritical” would be a redundancy when referring to leftists and especially rich, elite leftists.
Adler’s latest book, House of Redgrave: The Secret Lives of a Theatrical Dynasty, recounts the activities of the family . . .

The Art of Stupid
The Art of Stupid
Based on decades of observation, it’s long been my view that the dumbest people tend to call others stupid and when they really don’t grasp something the ungraspable is deemed even more stupid.
Two examples of those who have developed stupidity into an art form are Frank Rich and James Lovelock.
Frank Rich, irascible New York Times columnist and commentator on American politics and society, has over the years demonstrated a remarkably obvious disconnect with both.
Rich’s mindset is leftist, markedly so to the extent that he perceives all events which reflect the conservative viewpoint as being marks of the devil or of Adolph Hitler or both. His latest failure concerns the lividity, not the death pallor but the blanching fury of the majority of Americans toward the abomination of obamacare.
Rich, being smarter than the rest of us peons and much smarter than us Neanderthals who call ourselves conservatives, knows exactly why we opposed and still oppose the nation’s excursion into socialized medicine and the reason is not what normal people might think. . .
