 he attacks in France have the left in full virtue posturing Mode. 

The moral preening would be laughable if not ghoulish in its craven politicization and hypocrisy.

In the immediate aftermath of the attacks, a popular virtue posture for leftists was to suggest that sympathy-expressing people were actually racists because they did not recognize every previous slaughter perpetrated by ISIS.

There were Facebook posts and social media memes from holier-than-thou pious progressives standing on the victims’ corpses to make points about media attention and those evil, racist-y Republicans.

Here’s a perfect example:

Sally Kohn  @sallykohn

Day before Paris attacks, 43 people killed by suicide bombs in Beirut. But little media coverage, b/c doesn’t advance white fear narrative.

Of course, the CNN contributor never mentioned Beirut in any of HER previous tweets, mind you.

Her point was that YOU didn’t mention it any of YOUR tweets, you Racist McRacist.

There was a slaughter in Baghdad the other day, too, and leftists demand to know why YOU didn’t express empathy for those victims.

Again, pay no attention to the fact that these same leftists did not express sympathy, either. This is not relevant to Virtue Posturing. All that matters is YOUR behavior.

It’s why a leftist like North Carolina Democratic operative Thomas Mills can tweet this:

Thomas Mills @tmillsNC

UnChristian. 

Yet, never labels fellow progressives as “UnChristian” for supporting abortion. Indeed, many of Virtue Posturing Progressives express constant anxiety and fear of a Christian theocratic state being implemented by those evil and racist-y TEA-thuglicans.

By the way, I am still waiting to hear back on whether Mr. Mills is a Christian himself.

Thomas Mills @tmillsNC

I’m not the one claiming to be the good Christian. He is.

I am curious, however, why these same leftists — who are so quick to preen and lecture about who is not Christian —  have not been demanding public expressions of sympathy for the 200 Syrian children ISIS slaughtered:

If I were as mendacious as the left, I might suggest it’s because the kids were Christian.

Or maybe because the left is racist.

Get them up against the wall at Dartmouth 

When I saw this story out of Dartmouth College, I couldn’t help but think of the old Pink Floyd song, “In the Flesh.”

The flood of demonstrators self-consciously overstepped every boundary, opening the doors of study spaces with students reviewing for exams.

Those who tried to close their doors were harassed further. One student abandoned the study room and ran out of the library. The protesters followed her out of the library, shouting obscenities the whole way.

Students who refused to listen to or join their outbursts were shouted down.

“Stand the f*** up!”  “You filthy racist white piece of s***!”  

Men and women alike were pushed and shoved by the group. “If we can’t have it, shut it down!” they cried.  

Another woman was pinned to a wall by protesters who unleashed their insults, shouting “filthy white b****!” in her face.

Candy Crowley won  the CNBC GOP debate  

She wasn’t even there, but former CNN host Candy Crowley was the clear winner of the Republican Presidential debate last night on CNBC.

Due to the utter dumpster fire of a performance by the moderators from CNBC, I think GOP voters will supplant Crowley for CNBC as the ultimate example of bias and dumbassery exhibited during a debate.

The panel of TV personalities pretending to be policy wonks last night seemed more interested in tossing one-liners and positioning themselves as the least-knowledgeable people in the room.

When Vanity Fair notices your bias and incompetence, you know it’s bad.
