George Carlin was a marvelous comic.

Like many of his era, he was boringly profane and regrettably dedicated to intoxication as his primary profession, but man-oh-man did this gentleman’s intellect and truth shine.

In a time where most in his profession operate as paralyzed, politically correct woke echoes, his “nobody is immune” humor is surely missed.

Were George with us today, he would be wetting his pants over the rainbow of material coming his way. He would surely recognize that a large percentage of our population has lost its connection to reality.

The Bible defines a spiritual person as a “truth-seeker.” Knowing you were surely that, George, here’s wishing you are looking down and laughing your head off at our growing absurdities.

Joe Biden —  Our president’s personal physician, Dr. Kevin O’Connor, has issued his charge a solid bill of health and affirmed the Big Man’s capacities to fulfill his duties as commander-in-chief. Quote: “The president remains fit for duty, and fully executes all of his responsibilities without any exemptions or accommodations.” 

Two things need to happen — (1) Somebody needs to ask Dr. O’Connor if he has a television set and (2) a peer needs to check if Dr. O’Connor is fit for his duties.

Men and women in America — Can we get any nuttier? Men are busily retreating from marriage, matriculation, masculinity and maturity. Women are becoming angry superheroes, “liberated” sex toys, assumedly artificially inseminated single moms, and chronically depressed.

At the most liberated period of opportunity and prosperity in the world’s history, both genders are wallowing in their own version of medicated narcissistic misery.  

Others in America — We are in a time and space where parents are supported in putting “non-binary” on their newborn’s birth certificate so as to keep their gender options open.

Children who can’t be counted on to flush the toilet are getting to pick their preferred sexual identity and gender pronouns to the applause of “adult” observers.

Teens traversing the notorious fluctuating confusions of their developmental stage are being aided and abetted by politicians, principals, professors, parents, and peers. The crime? The untimely pursuit of hormonal intercession and surgical hacking on their chests and wee-wees as a horrific means – with irreversible consequences – to exchanging genders.

If our jails weren’t full of opiate and meth addicts, room should be made for those who support this much ballyhooed absurdly tolerated version of child abuse.

Asheville crime stats— Take heart Ashevillians, according to the city, in 2022, crimes against people were down ten percent and crimes against property were down twenty percent.

Simultaneously, we’re making national news for our “crime surge,” ranked as one of the most dangerous cities in America, and continue to struggle with a hyper-depleted, revolving door police force that is unable to respond to most crimes.

Don’t believe it? Ask your neighborhood meth/fentanyl user how easy it is to walk out a store’s door with a new drill, generator, chainsaw or other booty.

With respect for the officers attempting to enforce the law in a liberally lawless drug-infused city, our crime stats are a joke.

Knowing that no one is available to respond and if they do it is just to file a report, a large percentage of people no longer bother. Skewed input makes for statistical mythology.

Asheville’s “homeless” population— In case you’re wondering why things are so silly in Asheville, look no further than our ultra-liberal dominance of local governance, permissive D.A., beat-down police department, rampant drug culture, and the fact we’re an attractive oasis for nomads.

While you’re stumbling through the chaos in downtown Asheville, note that the same thing doesn’t exist in other tourist destinations like Gatlinburg or Charleston.

They just don’t put up with the nonsense. We’ve become the magnet community because we do.

Illegal immigration — If Satan has a portal to hell, it must be on our southern border.

What’s going on down there is beyond cracked. Thank goodness Kamala is on the job and our President is offering assurances that things are better than they’ve ever been.

Have we reached a time where it’s time to quit pretending we have a border?

Actually, the solution is really pretty simple – fine the heck out of anyone who employs someone without a visa or citizenship. But that will never happen because Democrats love dependent voters and Republicans love cheap labor.

We’ll just continue to pretend.

Ballooning insanity — My favorite of America’s recent circus acts was when China accused the Biden administration of being “hysterical.”

That’s hysterical not as in funny, but hysterical as in nutty, over-reactive, and infantile.

As regards our balloon response, China’s right.

How you can help — That easy. Refuse to join the U.S.I.C.  For the interested, that’s short for the U.S. Insanity Corp.

Declining will mean you can’t work for a mainstream media outlet, prosper with the Democratic Party, teach comfortably in most public schools or get a position at almost any of our universities, hang out with the Drugs-R-Us bunch, serve on Asheville’s Council or Buncombe’s Commission, or otherwise bask in the self-congratulatory pretense of our community’s progressive-wokeism.

What you will get to do is be normal, make a living being useful, raise productive children, and enjoy frequent moments of levity at the expense of the U.S.I.C.
