The Buffoon and the Balloon

By Rich Kozlovich

As this thing played out I couldn't believe what was happening.  How in the world, with all the incredible technology available, no one seemed to detect these balloons were coming into the air space of the United States?  

 

Well, it appears someone noticed this balloon traveled over the Aleutians and Canada then it entered the US, "all by accident".  But there was no need to worry, it's merely a civilian airship researching weather according to the Chinese government.  Well then, I guess it must be research on global warming, which of course that would make it perfectly acceptable.  Yeah, right, if you're insane.  Is there a single sane person in the world who would believe anything Xi says?  

It gets better!  It turns out Biden and the administration knew all about this as of January 28th, and deliberately kept it from the public in order to not upset Blinken's planned visit to China.  So instead of telling the Chinese to shove their visit right where the sun doesn't shine, which I have no doubt that's what Trump would have done, they hide this from the public, as an act of appeasement, but after this became such a public scandal, they finally did.  Six days later, but it's "not a cancellation, it's a postponement".  Imagine that! 

Xi and his crowd must really be chortling, guffawing and shaking their heads at their good fortune of having a buffoon as the President of the United States.

 

 Well, maybe one, and maybe more than one since this gobblegook appeared:

Defense officials were reportedly prepared with fighter jets, including F-22s, in case the White House ordered the airship to be shot down. However, Ryder insisted that the balloon “does not present a military or physical threat to people on the ground at this time” since it was “well above the range of civilian air traffic.” Ryder said that the U.S. decided not to shoot down the balloon because of the danger posed by falling debris to civilians and property. Ryder also added that the airship did not pose a risk to people on the ground as it currently is "traversing the continental United States" and they will “continue to monitor and review options.”.........

So, a spy balloon traveling, and hovering, over important military installations isn't any big deal?  Is that what he said?  Did I miss something?  Well, maybe it isn't from China, after all, what did they ever do to us?  Nah, that's just a bit of snarc, it's from China, and they've thoroughly infested our academic institutions, stealing our research and technology, and are infesting big business in order to spy on everything going on in America, and they infested the world with a genetically manipulated coronavirus, and the leadership knows it.

Then there's this, Chinese balloon called 'dry run' for EMP attack, which I consider hyperbole, for now.  The potential however, is there.  

"Spy balloons, used by Japan to drop bombs during World War II, are now far more sophisticated, can fly at up to 200,000 feet, evade detection, and can carry a small nuclear bomb that, if exploded in the atmosphere, would shut down the grid and wipe out electronics in a many-state-wide area."

Monica Showalter  on February 4, 2023 published this piece, Whether it's illegals or balloons, Joe Biden fails to protect the U.S, saying:

Joe Biden has been hit by crisis after crisis as a result of his own bad decisions, and oddly enough, they are starting to look alike. Take the latest China balloon incursion, where some kind of spying device has been sent over military installations throughout the U.S. interior, with Biden doing nothing about it. That's a sovereignty violation that ought to be drawing a major response to an arrogant, expanding wannabe superpower desperate to flex its military muscles, yet Joe's response, that shooting the invading device down might create debris or hit a populated area (America is loaded with unpopulated ones the balloon is traversing) is simply pathetic.  Open-borders free-balloon Joe seems to lack the masculine character and instinct to protect the people of the United States...........

  

But no need to worry, the Rambo finally emerged in Biden, Austin and that whole cabal of the new American military who understand its diversity, inclusion and equity that is our strength, not shooting down Chinese spy balloons.  America's macho men in the upper ranks of America's military finally shot down that darned balloon...... after it crossed the entire nation.  However, this story really gives you the feeling "Something is rotten in the state of Denmark".  According to Biden, he ordered it shot down on Wednesday.  

Okay, let's see a show of hands.  How many people believe Xi more than Biden?  Okay, sorry, that really wasn't a fair question.  In order to be able to answer that definitively one of them would have to have a modicum of integrity.  

 Okay....now that all that's been covered, here's a really different take on this whole thing, and it gets really convoluted, yet it has a certain rational appeal to it.   The Chinese 'Spy Balloon' Story As Manufactured Crisis: An Alternative Reading.  Take a look and make up your own mind, but it still doesn't change the fact an aircraft invaded America air space and the Biden cabal did nothing until this balloon crossed the entire nation, whether it was a spy balloon or not, or if it was an accident or not, is immaterial to that fact. 

Well, the balloon has been shot down, and the Chinese are outraged that America had the nerve to defend the nation's airspace.   Which I really find interesting since in 2001 they forced down an America spy plane, that was flying outside their airspace, held the crew for over a week, went through all the equipment and materiel, and demanded the plane be dismantled to get it back, because if they were allowed to fly it out it would dishonor their dignity.  Yeah, right, and Bush apologized for the death of the Chinese pilot.  They then demanded those flights, all in international air space, stop.  Imagine that. 

So, now it looks like Milley, Austin and that whole really "macho" military think tank who've been on really cozy terms with the CCP haven't been fired.  Remarkable!

 

Now the media, in order to make Biden look like a real leader, are claiming it happened on Trump's watch also.  Three times!  And he did nothing! Well, guess what?  That claim about three Chinese spy balloons on Trump's watch is deflating fast.  Imagine that.  

I think we really need to thank the main stream media, they give definition to every issue facing humanity.  They've given us the ultimate touchstone for understanding truth, justice and the American way.    And here it is.  If they say it, it's not truth, it's not justice, nor is it the America way.  We know if the media spouts it, then it's most likely nothing but lies of omission, lies of commission, propaganda for the left, and corruption beyond the pale.  Time and truth are on the same side, and both have condemned the media. 

 

See, now that's definition, and that leads to clarity.
