Time for the Bud Light Treatment: NFL
Denounces Player for Advocating Traditional Values

Original Article

Posted By: ladydawgfan, 5/16/2024 8:39:15 PM

Harrison Butker, a kicker for the Kansas City Chiefs, is in a heap of trouble these days. The NFL has issued a statement distancing itself from him, there is a petition at Change.org calling for him to be released, and outraged commentators across our fair land have lined up to condemn him and declare him unworthy to be in the company of decent people. What Butker did to get all this abuse is a sad indication of what life is like in this Age of Absurdity. If this were a sane society, you might get the impression that Butker did something like take a knee for the National Anthem

They should have gotten the Bud Light treatment years ago when the thug players started kneeling during the National Anthem. Too many people drifted back to the games when those stadiums should have remained empty.

-FTA “The NFL is steadfast in our commitment to inclusion, which only makes our league stronger." Really….. How about including Mr Butker and the people who believe as he does.

Back during the whole kneeling fiasco, I stopped watching the NFL. I didn't watch a down of pro football again until this last season when they started to punish the kneelers. I actually watched a couple of games again. Honestly, the thrill just wasn't there anymore, but it was something to do to kill a Sunday afternoon. But now I'm done. The same bogus league that celebrates sodomites, then attacks and condemns a good man with traditional values, clearly doesn't want me as a fan!!!

I don't car much about the KC Chiefs, but I care a lot about Harrison Butker, and it'll be neat to watch how he will be used by the Lord for something higher than professional football. That said, Go Titans!

Note to all the "football fans" out there. You are being played for the fools you are. The last time the NFL was worthwhile was when John Facenda was still alive. That was 1984. Since then it has become a home for thugs on the field and thieves in the head office. Every time you spend a dime of your money or a minute of your time following this alleged "sport" you are approving the actions of these thugs and thieves. Doing so in any other context would be called "aiding and abetting." Get off your a__ and do something worthwhile instead of wasting your time and money spectating in front of the TV or, worse yet, attending these alleged "sporting events" in person. Quit being a patsy.

Longtime Hollywood actor Dabney Coleman, best known for his villainous roles in the 1980s hit comedies “9 to 5” and “Tootsie,” died Thursday. He was 92. Coleman’s daughter, Quincy Coleman, confirmed he died at his home in Santa Monica, California, according to the Hollywood Reporter. My father crafted his time here on Earth with a curious mind, a generous heart and a soul on fire with passion, desire and humor that tickled the funny bone of humanity,” she said in a statement. “As he lived, he moved through this final act of his life with elegance, excellence and mastery,” she continued.

Some of President Joe Biden’s 2020 voters named inflation, foreign policy, and illegal immigration as their main reasons for considering backing former President Donald Trump, instead, in November, The New York Times reported on Friday. The NYT/Siena College survey released on Monday across Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania found that 14% of those who said they backed Biden in 2020 won’t do so this cycle. The outlet spoke with some of the Biden defectors included in the poll, with some planning to vote for Trump despite qualms with his personality.

Police in California have arrested an illegal alien serial rapist who attacked his victims inside a vehicle described as a “rape dungeon on wheels,” rescuing a woman before he could sexually assault her. Eduardo Sarabia, a 40-year-old transient from Mexico who is reportedly in the U.S. illegally, was arrested after Los Angeles County Sheriff’s deputies intervened to save a potential victim from a savage rape in a remote area in the San Gabriel Mountains this week, the day after he was allegedly involved in another sexual assault. The alleged rapist’s 2015 white Ford transit van had no windows and was “disgustingly outfitted for rape,"

There is a good reason the phrase "It's the economy, stupid," originally coined by Democrat strategist James Carville, made it into the nation's political vernacular; it's because Carville correctly noted that people tend to vote their wallets. Nothing wrong with that; people should vote for what they perceive as their own self-interest, and for most regular folks, that involves getting a good job, paying their bills, buying a house, and putting food on the table. So here we are, in the middle of another presidential election season, and the incumbent's economic record, set against his predecessor/opponent, looks bad. The April Bloomberg/Morning Consult (hardly a Trump-loving platform) swing-state poll has the figures.

Joe Biden was trying to appeal to the black vote on Friday, delivering remarks at the National Museum of African American History and Culture and speaking at an event later in the day about black fraternities and sororities. One reason for that is that he's hemorrhaging black voter support, while former President Donald Trump is gaining with black voters. You know what happens when Biden panders to an audience: Strange things and weird claims are bound to follow. First, there was Joe Biden's claim that he was a lifetime member of the NAACP.

In less than five minutes, Smith, uncondescending, forces the student to rethink his position. The student admits he feels like an idiot after the pair discussed the phrasing and logical trajectory of the debate about the Harry Potter creator who has become persona non grata for her views on gender despite being an ardent leftist.

President Joe Biden, who wears bespoke sneakers to prevent embarrassing collapses and whose command of the English language rivals that of most kindergarteners, is in bad political shape. Uncle Joe's reelection campaign faces an uphill climb, given his disastrous handling of the economy -- including a formal recession and four-decade-high inflation -- and his abetting a catastrophic and historically unprecedented invasion on our southern border. Cynicism and a sense of malaise are ubiquitous, and Americans overwhelmingly think the nation is headed in the wrong direction. Monday's New York Times/Siena College poll reflects this: former President Donald Trump currently leads in five of the six most crucial swing states.

When Joe Biden released a 14 second video with 5 edits in it declaring how he wants to debate Donald Trump twice, my first thought was how pathetic is it that he can’t get through a few lines without needing multiple takes and heavy editing. My next thought was Trump should take him up on the offer, which he did. Then, I had another thought, a better thought. Something that I believe will help Donald Trump immeasurably.

There is little point in analyzing the bogus New York case against Donald Trump from a legal perspective because, of course, it’s not a legal matter. It’s a political matter. It’s a kangaroo court, an attempt to railroad a political opponent to keep him from winning the election against the desiccated, treacherous, corrupt old pervert whom he’s currently pummeling in the polls. But the legal realities are catching up to the people seeking to frame him. This isn’t a case. It’s a scam. A lie. A sham. And a disgrace, not that anything can be a disgrace in a system so free of any moral or ethical considerations.

A Change.org petition demanding the release of Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker from the team and NFL has gone viral in wake of his controversial graduation speech at a private college in Kansas. Butker, an outspoken Catholic and married father-of-two, congratulated the women receiving their degrees at Benedictine College in Atchison, Kansas, last weekend, and said most of them were probably more excited about getting married, having children and staying at home to raise them, rather than establishing their careers. He also assailed Pride month, a particularly important time for the LGBTQ+ rights movement, and President Joe Biden's stance on abortion.

Additionally their debt consists of a term loan of about $15,000 and a loan against a mutual fund for about $50,000.

Barbara Furlow-Smiles, 38, set up fake business deals, invoices and events — including a Juneteenth celebration — to line her own pockets, the Justice Department said. “Furlow-Smiles shamelessly violated her position of trust as a DEI executive at Facebook to steal millions from the company utilizing a scheme involving fraudulent vendors, fake invoices, and cash kickbacks,” said US Attorney Ryan K.

(Snip) The plaintiffs, three pairs of parents who sued Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS), argued that their children being forced to read such books as “The Pride Puppy,” “Uncle Bobby’s Wedding” and “Born Ready: The True Story of a Boy Named Penelope,” would be in violation of both federal law and state law.

COVID-19, which killed 1.1 million Americans and destroyed the lives and livelihoods of millions more, is a manmade virus that escaped from a Chinese lab partly funded by the US government. Even today, you’re not supposed to say that — even though it’s the only plausible scenario. No, “fact checkers” will rush in to claim that eminent scientists deny this. Which is because those scientists have too much invested — in money, in time, in their own beliefs — to admit the truth. But as Congress continues to probe, that truth is coming out, little by little, and the lies are being exposed:

The House Oversight Committee had originally been convened to hold Attorney General Merrick Garland in contempt for refusing to comply with a subpoena to hand over an audio recording of President Biden’s interview with a special counsel. The hearing quickly spiraled out of control, with lawmakers bickering with one another. Less than an hour after the hearing was underway, Greene took shots at her Democratic colleague, Rep. Jasmine Crockett of Texas.
