You mean he took the bull by the horns?

RB--

Thanks for your views and comments. 

I did post on the inexplicable Chansley episode, but I was often responding to fair, civil and I believed earnest comments and questions of others.

Perhaps this thread has gone astray. 

For me, the interesting question is how the Deep State deposes Presidents, or potential candidates, in the postwar era. 

But, each to his own. Maybe this thread will get bumped into political discussions. 

So it goes.

You betcha.  Thanks for the true belly laugh.  The gal in this song is a bull rider, quickest thing I could come up with.

One thing you could always count on from Ron Paul was that he would be honest with you, that if he ever was to get in power he'd tell you he'd starve  the government of money  and dismantle any safety net  but then later he'd  be surprised when  the private sector didn't jump in head first to save the economy with their mega trickles  only to find he threw not only the U.S. but consequently maybe the entire world economy into a depression. JMO

This is probably the least original and least authentic and most political thing I've ever heard him say. I don't see his conversion as anything that consequential.

As far as Ben: Anybody who was here in 2021 knows Jacob Chansley was Ben's 2021  Man of the Year, and following Ben's writing style, you can only imagine how repetitive that was!

And Ben's 2021 Woman of the Year was dragon lady, LIz Cheney. Ben felt a terrible sense of betrayal when Cheney broke with his Republicans and decide she was going to take a stand against the 1/6 riots. Apart from that , I could applaud that Ben was taking a stand that Cheney , like her Dad was a neocon hawk, but  the events of the last 2 years have told me Ben hasn't met a war he didn't like. Ben's entitled to his viewpoint on those matters, but I found no consistency.

Similarly, Ben has such an "open mind," he'd continually brag that he would never watch the 1/6 House hearings.

Thanks for your comments.

Who knew (back in 2021) I would be so magnificently prescient regarding Mr Buffalo Horns!

Chansley is the perfect allegory for Jan. 6.

Mr Buffalo Horns, the "insurrectionist" who threatened to bring down the entire federal government. The very Poster Boy for the occupation of the Capitol.

But it turns out, there is "no there there." Or maybe even more or less than meets the eye. 

Mr Buffalo Horns was a homeless Phoenix resident, penniless, apparently mentally troubled, who somehow got $500 to travel to DC on Jan. 6---though Chansley was entirely unconnected to anyone else, according to federal prosecutors. So who gave him $500? How did he get to DC? No one knows. 

Then, mysteriously, it turns out Chansley may not have been the Insurrection Poster Boy by chance. There is that inexplicable (and previously censored, by the Jan. 6 committee) video of Capitol Police officers escorting a docile and diminutive Chansley through the Capitol, courteously opening doors for him, getting him to the Senate chambers---the very heart of government!

Where Chansley was copiously photographed. He was, we must concede, hard to miss on that day. Very symbolic! The goblins at the walls! Even inside the gate!

And on to the Senate Gallery, again where Mr Buffalo Horns photographed screaming down upon the Senate chambers. 

But...in the end, it was all theater. Chansley was not affiliated with anyone, and his weapon a mere flagpole. According to federal prosecutors, who prominently put him behind bars, Chansley thought he was from another planet.

Chansley was never a threat to anyone, except possibly himself. 

Is Mr Buffalo Horns the story of Jan. 6 writ small? Or large? 

Time will tell. Maybe. We have been waiting 60 years on the JFKA.

None of us.

"Magnificently Prescient"  this is the sort of omniscience  and the insistence they know ,more than everyone around them that is typical of the multi conspiracied.

There was nothing prescient about your coverage of Buffalo Horns anymore than any other rube left to piece together fragmented msm images from Thailand.

He was never billed as a  ringleader but more as a representative of the "lost soul "contingent of people at the 1/6 riots.  His sentence was a bit extreme for my liking only because he had a defiant high profile,which is unfortunate, but happens.

What a narcissist spin, actually comparing Chansley to the JFKA and his his historical importance as something we'll be waiting 60 years for! And of course, Ben credits himself as being the only one so "prescient " to see the connection all along! As a prolific conspirophile ,  Ben sees himself as much smarter than everyone around him. Is that why you moved to Thailand Ben?

 

heh heh

Yes continue to embellish the story, Ben. All the more we'll pay homage to you 60 years from now, when the truth is revealed and all of us will finally admit Ben was right all along! If only his words can be marked here forever, for the future historians.

Thanks for your comments, even if we disagree. 

The EF-JFKA should be a place where different and even opposing points of view are enjoyed in civil discourse. 

I have enjoyed reading some of your insights.
