I'm not going to watch this, but of all the headlines you've posted today gushing over Biden/Harris, this is the one that didn't set off my gag reflex.

Temujin म्हणाले...

I just threw up in my mouth. How many 'We Love Kamala' articles will we have to read in the next 4 years?

She is a laughing idiot. And she's going to be your first communist President.

Mark म्हणाले...

Weird post figuring the amount of people here who said she whored her way into power.

Why provide a post for hating women?

Fernandinande म्हणाले...

In the ancestral village of Madison, WI, "a solid left-right combo from a BLACK MAN to some white woman who deserved it.

That Harris chalking looks awfully photoshopped to me. But I suppose if Kenya can celebrate Obama, why not parts of India celebrate Harris.

Sally327 म्हणाले...

I wonder how India is going to feel when Biden kow-tows to China and backs away from the Trump policy that favored India. There was a fairly serious clash between India and China earlier this year, which still isn't resolved, not that this featured in any of the debates or the commentary about the Presidential election.

But yea! The new VP's mom came from India. That's got to make Harris an expert on the region I'm sure.

"She's a whore, but she's our whore!"

If you have an ancestral village, you came from a shithole country.

Have you seen Veep? It’s one of the most cynical shows I’ve ever watched. And it’s altered how I look at politicians and politics. Now, whenever I see or hear a politician, I ask myself, how much is this person like Selena Meyer?

Hillary Clinton scored high on the Selena Meyer scale.
Joe Biden does not. I think he's unfit for the office, but he’s not quite the vicious schemer Meyer was.
Kamala Harris scores as highly in the Selena Meyer scale as Hillary did.

But you can take some heart that part of the package is that Meyer and Clinton were unloved and only sporadically successful politicians because they gave people the creeps. The more they were seen, the less they were liked. Harris is the same.

Kamala is a double fraud. First working with Jussie Smollett for his MAGA hoax when her anti-lynching Bill was up for vote. And now The Great Fraud. Her f-ing village must be proud.

rhhardin म्हणाले...

Veep isn't cynical. It mocks, as comedy, what the voters are interested in and the types that you get that play to that.

If the voters were serious, those types wouldn't be there in the first place.

rhhardin म्हणाले...

Our first native-American vice president, too.

rhhardin म्हणाले...

Jonah Ryan from Veep will be the type standard in the new administration.

rhhardin म्हणाले...

It's not Biden's or Harris's fault that they won. It's women voters. Direct the mockery to the right people.

rhhardin म्हणाले...

Women voters are the one group that Trump couldn't use any truth-seeking zingers on.

rhhardin म्हणाले...

Grab them by the pussy and Trump had to apologize abjectly. The one zinger that happened for.

You and I clearly have different ideas about what the word “cynical” means.

Phil 314 म्हणाले...

So she’s black and Indian!? I guess the “white” just disappears when mixed with other races.

Kumbaya baby...

wendybar म्हणाले...

A woman who was only chosen because she had color...and was a woman. No need for smarts...just look for anybody who checks the boxes. Next time, it will be Bruce, I mean Caitlin Jenners turn.

Ding, ding ding....They pigeon holed that one. Funny, how that "anti-lynching" bill came out RIGHT exactly at the time Kamala and Corey could scream "MODERN DAY LYNCHING" Too bad it failed, and too bad we don't have a media who investigates corruption because they are on the side of the corrupted.

wendybar म्हणाले...

Just goes to show...Sleep your way to the top, and you too, could be chosen for your color and sex to be the next President!!!

Howard म्हणाले...

Trump lost because he got fewer white male votes. He increased every other demographic.

Mattman26 म्हणाले...

They were bursting crackers in my village last night too.

I feel so connected!

R C Belaire म्हणाले...

Brings a tear to the eye.

"That Harris chalking looks awfully photoshopped to me."

It's a screenshot that I made from that video, so look at the video and see if you think that's photoshopped. I did nothing to the shot I took.

Ann Althouse म्हणाले...

I agree it look strange in the screen shot, kind of like it's floating up off the surface. But in the video you see the villagers fiddling with it. And the method of making a design with color on the dirt is supposed to create that vivid look. Look up "rangoli."

Ann Althouse म्हणाले...

"The materials used to make the rangoli are easily found everywhere. Therefore, this art is prevalent in all homes, rich or poor. Normally the major ingredients used to make rangoli are: Pise rice solution, the dried powder made from leaves, colour, charcoal, burned soil, wood sawdust, and similar substances. Rangoli is also created using coloured powdered quartz, rice, dry flour, flower petals, turmeric (pasupu), vermillion (sindooram) and coloured sand." (Wikipedia)

Gahrie म्हणाले...

Wait? Her ancestral village is in India and not Africa? I've been lied to!

Gahrie म्हणाले...

Our first native-American vice president, too.

Nope. We've had plenty of those. Anyone born in the United States is a native American.

She's not the first Native American either. We've had at least one before. Charles Curtis who served under Hoover.

Now she is our first Indian vice president, but that's India Indian, not American Indian.

Jupiter म्हणाले...

Robin Givhan has been promoted beyond her competence. It happened at the end of fifth grade.

Bilwick म्हणाले...

I had read that the traditional collectivist, anti-individual ethos of Indian society was being supplanted by a freer, more individualistic outlook, especially among younger Indians. Not in this jerkwater, apparently.

The people who voted for Trump, want, among other things, less Harris, and more sentencing and prison reform.

Backhanded but high praise for woman Ann Althouse who abstained from exercising her 19th amendment rights.

William म्हणाले...

Nothing against Melania, but I always felt distanced from her. Slovenian supermodels lived in a world that I knew nothing about. She certainly played her cards right, but I don't know the game she was playing.....I feel the same way about Kamala. I just don't know what her values are or how those values shaped her. She is foreign to me....I can admit my distance from Melania and people just shrug. My distance from Kamala, however, would undoubtedly be considered as due to evil racism should I be so stupid as enunciate it in public......Kamala, like Obama before her, has had a childhood and parentage that is atypical of most Americans. Well and good. What bothers me is that this remoteness from our shared banality is considered a plus. Racism is the original sin of Americans and since she was born of West Indian and East Indian parents, she was born free of original sin. At birth, she was a better person than any white person whose family had been here for a few generations.....I wonder if Kamala will speak out against the caste system in India and apologize for her family's involvement in that great sin. Obama's Luo ethnic group in Kenya was treated far more unfairly than Michelle's black family in Chicago, but I don't believe he ever spoke out against Kenyan bigotry against his father and his father's ethnic group.

Trump improved ties to India. Let's see if VP Harris can improve further on Trump's improved ties to India. China won't like it, so I doubt it. Look for India to become a red headed orphan of the Biden administration.

William: Melania played a game as old as time. She married rich, and lives a good life. At least she isn't trying to leapfrog that into government office, like that harridan Hillary.

Jim at म्हणाले...

Know what's funny? This new leader and trailblazer and god-figure now heading the Democratic Party ... didn't receive a single, GD vote in the primary.

Skippy Tisdale म्हणाले...

It's a fact that her ancestral village is known as the blow-job capital of the world.
