Wednesday Short Cuts
“The #MeToo movement is collectivist virtue signaling of a very perilous sort.” —Michelle Malkin
Insight: “In questions of science the authority of a thousand is not worth the humble reasoning of a single individual.” —Galileo Galilei (1564-1642)
Weak-kneed response: “We did not ask for [players to stand during the national anthem]. We spent [yesterday] talking about the issues players are trying to bring attention to. Issues in our communities, to make our communities better.” —NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell on his meeting with team owners
From the “Traitor Files”: “I don’t regret going to Vietnam. … I’m proud that I went. It changed my life all for the good.” —"Hanoi Jane“ Fonda on "aiding and abetting” American enemies
She really doesn’t understand how our form of government works: “Every time I land in America, how much longer can these generals allow Trump to cause so much damage? [The] 25th amendment is there for a reason.” —Chelsea Handler
Alpha Jackass: “Here’s the thing — Harvey Weinstein’s disgusting. Let’s just say that. But Fox News had [this type of behavior], Clarence Thomas [did too].” —film director Rob Reiner
Holier than thou: “I really don’t think that it’s appropriate to attack comedians. We’re on the right side of things. Also, the comedians are there to say the emperor has no clothes. We’re important people right now. So, I don’t know why [people] attack comedians.” —Joy Behar
Non Compos Mentis: “According to Islam, every man is accountable to stop abuse of women — by their word and by their acts. Many abusers like Weinstein walk our streets, terrorizing our neighbors. Together, we can employ a proven Islamic model that will stop this madness, and re-invoke gender equity today in America, and the world.” —attorney Qasim Rashid in “How the teachings of Islam could help us prevent more sexual abuse scandals”
And last… “It’s one thing to break down cultural stigmas constructively, but the #MeToo movement is collectivist virtue signaling of a very perilous sort.” —Michelle Malkin
